as we are coming on the wear, we are about to hear from

the california governor, good afternoon newsom, set to speak with members of media. you see that on the left-hand side of the screen as he visits monterey park, the latest city in this country to be devastated by gun violence. we are just learning in the last couple of minutes that yet another person has now died. somebody who is being treated for their injuries, did not survive. that brings the number of people killed to 11. the shooting at a ballroom dance hall on saturday. we will bring more live with more what we're learning today on who these victims are. the investigation into this alleged shooter, his motive, after he died by suicide on sunday as police closed in. i'm hallie jackson in washington. let's get you right out to california now with nbc news correspondent josh lederman, live first in monterey park, justice and intelligence correspondent den dilanian and federal former prosecutor and georgetown law professor and msnbc legal analyst paul butler.

josh, let me start with you and key questions that are outstanding about what happened here and what we know and don't know. >> the key question of course, how the victims who were transported to the hospital are doing. we got the news that an 11th victim has died. that person had been transported to the hospital, to los angeles county usc medical center, a level one trauma center, according to the hospital, that person unfortunately has succumbed to her injuries, which brings to now 11 the total number of people dead in this mass shooting. according to hospital officials, they say that one patient who is at that hospital remains in serious condition, and they are treating two more who are recovering, the hospital saying that they remain hopeful for their complete recoveries. there are additional patients at other hospitals, there was a total of ten who were transported on saturday night to the hospital. so hopefully we will get more details on how their recovery is doing, but in the meantime, hallie, more questions that we

are hoping police will answer, about this suspect and what may have precipitated this, and just in the last hour or so, we heard from police in california, a couple of hours from here, but it is where this suspect had been living, there was a mobile home that he lived in that was searched, under a search warrant, following this situation, playing out, and we're now hearing from police here that this was not their first encounter with him. they say that on january 7th, and january 9th, of this month, so not that long ago, he came to the police station, alleging that there were, that family members of his were committing fraud, theft, and even trying to poison him and that that had occurred 10 to 20 years ago. the police obviously asked for more information, he said he would return to the police station with that information, he apparently did not end up returning. but that sort of speaks to perhaps his mindset in the days leading up to this.

the key question that this community has, that they are hoping police will be able to answer, as well as the governor and other officials there, why did this happen? what was the motive? we heard some local officials talking about what they're hearing, that there could have been some connection to domestic violence, or to a domestic partner from the past or from the present that he was targeting, but so far, we have not heard law enforcement come out and confirm those reports, and so that is really the top question, as we wait to see what gach newsom and those officials will have to say about this investigation. >> that's right. we expect that to begin at any moment. ken dilanian, we want to go to you. we know more about the time line of the shooting. we can show folks on the screen here. what happened on saturday, into sunday. and we know now that police are continuing to investigate not just the details of how this went down, but also any kind of motive here. talk through where this investigation goes next, based on the reporting that you're doing and your knowledge about

how these investigations go. >> sure, this is being run by the los angeles county sheriff's department and what josh reported is a key detail because it does speak to state of mind that starts to answer some kinds of questions potentially about motive, but what investigators are doing right now is they're interviewing victims, those who survived obviously, to see what they could say about anything that this shooter said or whether they were targeted intentionally, whether they were able to say that, and of course, any acquaintances, the ex-wife, looking for any kind of online or social media activity, if any, he was 72 years old, and as you heard from josh, they served a search warrant, they're searching his residence, they're looking for any writings, any kind of clue to what may have led to this, and another big avenue of inquiry were the weapons that were used, two guns, we're told that one of them appears to have been legal under california law and how did he acquire those guns, was he sent to a background check, did he pass a background check, were any laws broken in that

capacity, and just the time line, what happened when he went to the second location and a courageous bystander managed to avert a second strategy there. and then the circumstances leading up to him apparently shooting himself in that white van on sunday. so all of these kinds of blanks that investigators are filling in, mainly interviewing witnesses, and looking for documents, hallie, they have a lot of work ahead. >> josh, i will go back to you here. because one of the things we laid out in that time line was that moment where the suspect went to a second location here, the alleged shooter here, and was stopped, apparently, by somebody who is now being considered and hailed a hero by so many in that community and around the country. we're hearing from him today, now, walk us through that. >> that's right. the los angeles county sheriff praising the heroic actions of him and other bystanders in preventing a yet, a second mass shooting. we are hearing from someone who spoke to the "new york times" and other outlets describing the

moments that he saw this gunman enter this other dance ballroom, about two miles or so from where i am at, and he said that he was essentially the ticket taker at that event, and he said that as soon as he saw this asian man who he says he did not recognize with the type of weapon and the look in his eyes, key tell he was not there to rob the house, hallie, he was there looking for targets to try to harm and that in the moment, when the gunman started to reposition the gun to begin to fire it, he saw that one brief moment where he could potentially intervene. he says he thought he was going to die right then and there, but he knew everyone there would die if he did not act, and that is when he jumped and tried and successfully was able to wrestle that gun away from the suspected gunman. clearly a very significant and heroic action that saved many lives despite the strategy that took place at that first incident just behind me here in monterey park.

>> and i think we can play a little bit from that individual here, from this morning, over on abc news. let's play that. >> something, i realized he had to take the weapon away from him, disarm him or otherwise everyone would have died. i wasn't acting in fear, but the ability to have action to fear, when fearful events happen, such as this. >> an incredible moment in a horrific weekend for a community here, paul, that is still grieving. we're just learning more about who some of these victims here. we can show folks here on the screen, with more information yet to be revealed, presumably, we hope, potentially at some point at this news conference that is set to begin with the california governor, other officials involved in the community, talk a little bit, paul, from your perspective, on where police go, how this investigation unfolds from here. we know that the suspect, this individual was kind of an outlier compared to the hundreds of mass shootings in this

country, every single year, and that he was a bit older, he was 72 years old. talk through some of that. >> so hallie, the investigation will focus on motive, including whether the shooter targeted specific individuals, and as we've heard, police are reportedly examining a domestic violence angle, so that means that the gunman's ex-wife will be a key witness. investigators will also consider whether antiasian bias was a factor, even though the gunman was asian like the victim, people can create hate crimes against their own community but based on the evidence so far, it seems a personal, not political motive and hallie, you're exactly right to emphasize that this shooter is an outlier in terms of his age, and that could impact the investigation. most mass shootings are committed by people who are under 40 years old. in recent years, many of those people have left a social media trail. this shooter who was 72 may not

have been as active on social media. that will make the motive harder to determine. but at this point, hallie, investigators have not ruled anything out. >> we know that this is a story that has reached the white house, josh lederman, the white house press secretary saying that president biden has been briefed again this morning on this issue, and saying this at the press briefing in the last couple of minutes and ensures full federal support and the white house is in regular contact with the officials that are helping to lead the response where you are there in monterey park. >> that's right, hallie, and i have to say, just from having been on the ground in the last two days, the federal response here has been massive. we've seen not only the fbi here, but the atf, the county sheriffs, that he heard from the attorney general merrick garland, he said that he got the assistance from the u.s. marshall service and in fact we believe that one of the reasons that police were able to clear

this scene as quickly as they were and we are frankly able to be as close to the location where the shooting took place, as we are, just about 36 hours afterwards, is because there was such a concerted and massive federal response that president biden said that he was assuring leaders here in california, that he would provide them, whatever they needed to respond to this obviously, he would want the federal government to provide, the flags, at the white house, have been lowered to half-staff, as the president and the first lady send their condolences to the many families who are grieving and beginning the process of trying to heal from this incident. >> yet another horrific moment for members of the aapi community across the country. >> it is. that's why anti-asian violence has to be part of what law enforcement officers are investigating, even though again, this shooter was a member of the that community. and since the gunman took his own life, the focus will also be on how to prevent this kind of crime in the future.

california has some of the nation's strongest gun safety laws, and the state actually may have fewer of these mass shootings than many other jurisdictions, but without federal law, it's hard to control what firearms people bring into the state. of course, the u.s. supreme court has dramatically expanded gun rights in recent years. last year, it overturned a new york law that required people to have a license to carry a concealed weapon. so strong federal enforcement of gun safety is hampered not only by the politics in congress, which we're all familiar with, but also by there most conservative supreme court in decades. >> paul but ler, thank you. we are awaiting to hear more details from top california state officials about that shooting that has now left 11 people dead, as we just learned coming on the air here, in monterey, park, california. as soon as that begins, we will

bring it live on msnbc. josh, ken, paul, thank you very much. coming up, we will turn to news here in washington, including democrats just naming congressman adam schiff and eric swalwell to the house intelligence committee each with multiple threats from speaker mccarthy not to seat them. and the team is learning more about a former fbi official just arrested for alleged money laundering and violating sanctions on russia. wa what his legal team is telling us. and the fbi turned over classified items, item, an important word after a home search of president biden this weekend. and the latest in a white house staff shakeup, in just 60 seconds.

i screwed up. mhm. i got us t-mobile home internet. now cell phone users have priority over us. and your marriage survived that? you can almost feel the drag when people walk by with their phones. oh i can't hear you... you're froze-- ladies, please! you put it on airplane mode when you pass our house. i was trying to work. we're workin' it too. yeah! work it girl! woo! i want to hear you say it out loud. well, i could switch us to xfinity. those smiles. that's why i do what i do. that and the paycheck.

let's talk about what is happen welcome the white house, on the left side of the screen, you see the white house press secretary at the podium. she is being asked right now by reporters about the newest batch of classified items found at president biden's home. so far, she has said that as it

relates to the president's standing with the american people, that voters, americans, will have to decide for themselves. it will be up to them how they see the president. she also indicated that in less than an hour from now, there should be a call with the white house counsel's office to answer more questions from reporters, questions that reporters have been trying to get answers to for days now, especially inside the last 48 hours, when we learned the new revelations from the fbi, more classified items found at the president's delaware home, six items, i keep saying the word items, that is relevant fear for a reason, we'll explain this a minute. basically the fourth discovery of classified things, the fourth batch, we don't know what exactly these items, are how many classified documents are in them, because a document isn't the same thing as the item, the language here is important and right now we're not getting any clarity from the president's attorneys. all of this unfolding as we're also learning about a bit of a shakeup at the white house. the current chief of staff ron klain set to loave his post

after the state of the union february 2nd. i want to bring in mike memoli and garrett haake and mark murray. and we're hearing in the split screen moment with karine jean-pierre, a bit deja vu about what the president new and when he knew it. and refer together coun el's office and the d.o.j. is hands ling it, et cetera, and the key thing is here from the president's attorney, the language, and that there wres were these items that were found. didn't say what the items were. how many documents were in the items f the items are the same thing as documents. explain why that matters when it relates to the volume of classified information that we know about. >> well, hallie, it has really been for jot must the white house, but for democrats across the board, an uncomfortable drip, drip, drip, of new revelations over the course of this month, as more searches are

being done in more locations and uncovering more and they are items rather than just documents. i think the latest drip is perhaps the most significant because of two things. one, let's just underscore the fact that federal law enforcement spent more than 12 1/2 hours searching through the residence, the perm residence of the president of the united states, something we haven't seen before. and here's the statement we got from the president's personal attorney, bob bower, who says, they were looking through notes, files, papers, binders, memorabilia, to do lists, schedules, reminders going back decades and i think why it is so significant, when they took certain items in their possession, they included not just documents from biden's time as vice president, which has been where we've been focused this entire time, but they went on to say, items that included time from his tenure in the united states senate. now, that potentially represents a real expansion of this probe, and even as the white house officials are saying that this was done at the invitation, the

search on saturday, at the invitation of the president, and his team, it's worth noting that this is the beginning of the end for biden's team really being in control of this special counsel search as it is ramping up. and that really leads to nor questions that we are going to keep posing. are there additional locations they want to search and why are they looking all the way back to his time in the u.s. senate and i think this is why democrats like joe manchin over the weekend getting more uncomfortable and wanting to hear more contrition from the president who just said there is no "there" there. >> and more forceful posture from the white house counsel's office, at least as it relates to what viewers can see, right, what americans can see publicly, from a white house office that isn't always the tip of the spear on these issues. >> that's right. we hear karine jean-pierre the press secretary on a regular basis referring questions to the representatives of the white house counsel office and we see

one of the officials showing up on the airways more and more to answer the questions and more than likely doing a call with the white house later this hour. it should be noted that we're not getting necessarily satisfactory answers even as they want to show more of a public show of force to address the questions. and it is worth noting that as karine jean-pierre came to the podium, the seventh briefing from the podium and five times she brought a special guest to settle the room a bit and try to get some other issues that white house wants to talk about out in the atmosphere. and sometimes john kirby, and steph curry from the golden state warriors and jennifer granholm the energy secretary talking about what the house has on its docket, legislation about the strategic petroleum reserve. >> reporters continued to press about the documents issue. here is what she said. i want to play it for folks here. >> as it relates to the american people, and the president's

standing with the american people, it is going to be up to them to decide how they see this president. >> garrett, i'll go to you on that, because there has been more developments in this back and forth between the biden administration on this issue and members of congress, particularly republicans, who want to flex their sort of "small o, oversight muscle, and the oversight committee share "big o, james comer has his own documents out for visitor logs to the president's home, et cetera. help us understand the landscape as it is playing out on capitol hill with the back and forth? >> it is not just reporters frustrated with the answers from the white house. lawmakers want to hear more about the searches and why they were conducted in the first place and what was found and in the place of the oversight committee who else might have had access to any of these documents stored at president biden's home. and so you have this letter today from james comb comer, the

head of the oversight committee now in republican control, asking for secret service logs, essentially who may have been coming and going from that home. remember last week, the committee asked the white house for any records about who might have been come can and going from that home, and they were told no such records existed and now they're trying the secret service who they know at least has to do the due diligence to check people in and out when they're coming to see the current president of the united states. for what it's worth, the white house response was essentially thank you very much for your letter, we'll think about it. and the line in here that i think has gotten a lot of attention, on republicans that i've talked to, from the white house, is that they're interested in working with house republicans on what they consider to be legitimate oversight. and republicans are already brist ling at the idea that the white house doesn't get to choose which oversight of the president or of the white house is legitimate, that's up to congress, to decide what they think is a legitimate target for their oversight. and so dig in, folks, i mean this is going to be a process that could go on for quite some time. not just specifically on this question of who might have not

been visiting the president at his home in zelenskyy, but every step of the way, i think you could see similar fights, particularly between this committee and the white house. >> so garrett you're laying out there is republican frustration with the white house and not surprisingly and mike you're looking at reporter's frustration with what reporters hope is transparency from the white house and you are looking at frustration on democrats, openly criticized the president, and senator dick durbin as well and if the president is saying i have no regrets, and some of his outside allies are saying maybe you should have some regrets, i'm paraphrasing but the idea if it is just sloppiness and everybody is going out of their way to say, democrats who are criticizing the president, it is not the same as what president trump did, that is a stipulation but going out and saying look, this isn't great. >> on the sunday shows yesterday, we saw joe manchin on

"meet the press," and dick durbin, number two senate democrat, on cnn, end up responding to president biden's remarks from last week, that i have no regrets on how i've handled this, and there's no "there" there to these classified documents that are being discovered. both manchin and durbin ended up saying yes, there is some "there" there. that you should be up front, and admit, admit a mistake, to be able to have classified information like. that and both manchin and durbin walked through their experiences as senators dealing with classified information. the rigors, the scif rooms that you have to go and questioned on these types of happenings, and tranches of documents coming from president biden's residences or former offices. now hallie, as you gist mentioned, it is important to, as you just mentioned, it is important to note, as senators man chichb and durbin did, there are big differences how president biden has handled there versus donald trump.

you know that biden's team has been more transparent about notifying the archives, they did not resist subpoenas like we have seen in donald trump's case. but as brendan buck on "meet the press" yesterday, that donald trump shouldn't be the standard, and all of a sudden because you're not donald trump, you have a clean bill of health. as we've been talking about, there are democrats, republicans, members of the media, who are all looking for more, for more answers. >> mark murray, thank you. garrett haake, thanks to you as all. i will relieve you of on camera duties. we will look at where the white house is next and the chief of staff is leaving. and tell us more about that and how it workings into the backdrop of the white house. as a republican controlled congress. >> this is a long-awaited changing of the guard at the white house, where we've seen

remarkable stability in the upper echelons of the president's senior staff. ron klain who has been really with president biden going back to the late 1980s, a member of the judiciary committee staff, for then senator joe biden, steve of staff in the vice president's office at the start of the obama administration as well, leaving potentially after the state of the union address, but he is not going far, he will continue to be a biden adviser, and we believe he will be helping to facilitate the re-election campaign and martialing some of the outside allies to support the president in that effort and replacing, him, jeff, we know him from his time in the biden administration early days, as the covid response coordinator. he has been someone who is an obama administration veteran. he was an acting omb director. played a number of roling in the obama administration. and i think what is most relevant here, he also helped to lead biden's transition team, going back to the early days of 2020, even before president biden was president-elect biden. he helped to really build the

team and build the mission that was launched on inauguration day, just over two years ago now, and he brings now, a different white house, a different phase, heading into a re-election campaign, you often see this, more of a manager to keep the trains running while the focus turns to outside the white house, to politics, less about governing, and this is somebody with a lot of experience in the world of business consulting and management, who can help to really keep the biden team focused as the focus turns elsewhere, especially on the campaign trail. >> thank you very much. coming up here on the show, house democrats gearing up for a fight over top committee assignments as congress gets back to work this week. let's talk about it. the minority leader today, with representatives adam schiff and eric swalwell, to continue to serve on the house intelligence committee. why is this so interesting? because hakeem jeffries tasked a lot of people to be on a lot of different committees. republican house speaker kevin mccarthy has promised to block

the two california congressmen from being seated. both played a key role in the impeachment trials of former president trump. let's bring in ryan nobles joining us now. he can do this because this is technically a select committee. mean can the house speaker can reject nominees if he wants to. or if he she wants to. talk about where this standoff goes from here. because mccarthy can't do this with every democrat that wants to be on committees. >> that's exactly right. and very similar to the move that nancy pelosi made with the republican members that were appointed by mccarthy to the january 6th select committee as you may recall, she rejected a number of the republican names and kevin mccarthy pulled all of the republicans from the panel. this is mccarthy to a certain extent trying to turn it back on democrats by taking two targets of republican ire and that is adam schiff and eric swalwell and saying they will not be allowed to be on select committee if it comes to that. hakeem jeffries is making it clear he will not back down, in

a letter that he sent to kevin mccarthy today, stating that if they do choose to push these members off the committee, that the denial of seats to duly elected members of the house democratic caucus runs counter to the serious and sober mission of the intelligence committee. and you know, there's going to be a difference here, hallie, between how kevin mccarthy treats this situation and perhaps other democratic members that hakeem jeffries appoints to committees, because as you point out, he can unilaterally keep them off the committee. ilhan omar, another democratic member republicans often criticize, likely appointed to the foreign affairs committee. that is not a select committee. so if kevin mccarthy wouldlike to prevent her from being on the committee, it would require a vote from the entire house of representatives and of course we know the margins between republicans and democrats have very small, there may not be moderate republicans who are as comfortable booting omar off foreign affairs as they might be with mccarthy on his own removing swalwell and schiff

from the intelligence committee some of the this is a showdown that is going to take place over the next couple of weeks, as both sides begin to formulate these committees, and it may give us an idea of just how far kevin mccarthy is willing to go to appease the far right members of his caucus. maybe for schiff and swalwell, and it may be a little different scenario when it comes to omar. >> ryan nobles, thank you very much, appreciate it. still ahead on the show, we are watching monterey park, california, you can see that live shot there, local officials set to update on that horrific shooting any minute now. we will bring it to you live when it happens. first, over to a story from our investigations team. why a former fbi official in charge of catching spies has now been arrested for allegedly violating sanctions on russia. we've got that story in a minute. minute ♪ i gotta good feeling about this, yeah ♪ ♪ i'm with it ♪ ♪ i gotta good feeling about this ♪ ♪ yeah, ♪ ♪ so let's get it ♪ ♪ i'm feeling good vibes ♪

. new developments from the justice department, a former fbi official top official arrested on charges of money laundering and illegally making money while working for the fbi, charles mcgonigal, former head of the in tem office, arrested over the weekend on the allegation he has been working with a russian oligarch after he left the fbi in violation of u.s. sanctions. we're also learning today what while working at the fbi, while still there, he also allegedly accepted more than $200,000 in cash from a former foreign

intelligence official. putting out a statement, the attorney saying mcgonigal will bleed not guilty and he is expected to be released from custody today at some point is their expectation. i want to bring in nbc investigations correspondent tom winter who has been following this story for us, and tom, a lot of twists here. >> a lot of twists here and basically what you have is the person who is formally charged with being the person who oversaw counter-intelligence investigations, some of the most sensitive investigations in the fbi, looking for potential spies, looking for people who are working for a foreign nation or foreign adversary was paid by one of the people his office was investigating and of course i'm referring to russian oligarch oleg deripaska, under investigation for probably about a decade now, according to our reporting, he is somebody we're looking at photos or video from october of 2021, when we broke the story that his house, his home in dc, which belongs to a

relative, but largely believed to belong to deripaska, was searched by the fbi, in connection with the sanctions violations investigation and perhaps other potential charges, and that person right there, oleg deripaska, closely associated with vladimir putin, a veteran of the metal wars which was a war between a number of private individuals, seeking to overtake and run a russian state-owned businesses, after the end of the cold war, a violent battle between those business lead everers, i should point out and at one time and for almost a decade, the largest aluminum company on this planet, the largest aluminum smelter in china until china overtook them and now under investigation, at one point banned from coming into the united states, and the very person who is in charge of the office investigating him, according to federal prosecutors today, was eventually paid by him to look into a rival oligarch. that just touches the surface of some of the allegations against

mcgonigal today. including the fact that he received nearly a quarter million from an albanian foreign intelligence officer at one point during his career, including while still at the fbi. an investigation led by the l.a. field office, hallie, they say to avoid any conflicts of interest. >> tom winter, thank you very much. let's take you back to monterey park, california, where the news conference with some local and state officials is just now beginning. we are going to bring it to you live. let's listen in. >> so many people across the nation, in fact i just had a phone call with president biden, an vice president kamala harris, who expressed their condolences for what happened, and will be expressing their condolences to the victims but we also have the honor of having senator alex padilla here, who delayed his trip to washington, d.c., just so that he could be here with us. so senator, if you could please say a few words.

>> thank you, congresswoman. i want to say thank you for providing, the police, and all of the city, community, and regional leaders that responded so quickly after the tragedies of saturday night. it's important to be here today, to walk through this resource center, for families and friends of the victims and frankly the community at large, because it is going to take a lot, and it is going to take some time, but we know that the community is resilient and the community will revamp. we are working together, not just to support the families, to support the community, but to once again use this reminder of the epidemic of gun violence in america. there's still a lot that we are learning about these particular cases, we won't jump to all of the conclusions, we'll let the investigations and legal processes run their course. we do take it as a reminder of

the urgency with which we need to strengthen our gun safety laws across the country. my colleagues have pointed out, in california, we have some of the strickest laws and protections of any state in the nation. that is true. and they have a place. and it is helpful. but when there's a patch work of laws and protections to various degrees across states, then clearly there are vulnerabilities that can impact any community in the country, and so for the individuals and the community here in monterey park, throughout the region and throughout the country, that are living in more fear today, because of what has been with us, it is a reminder that more needs to be done. two final things. another minute should go by, shouldn't go by without ex tressing our condolences and our prayers, to the families of the

victims and to the survivors, and the community at large. they should take heart in seeing their community leadership respond so quickly and work so well to get, and last but not least, to call attention to some good news. earlier this year, or excuse me, last year, congress actually came together on a bipartisan basis, representative on the senate side, myself on the senate ide, additional resources for mental health, it does bring additional resources for crisis response, for incidents like this. so it's part of our recognition that communities will need that support, not just in the immediate aftermath of a tragedy, but for the long term. but more needs to be done whether it's on reducing the types of weapons that are found in communities across the country, access to those

weapons, even when it's lawful, we cannot let mass shootings be the norm, and not here in monterey park, not in california, not anywhere in the united states of america. and with that, let me introduce my friend and colleague, los angeles county supervisor hilda solis. >> you have been listening to senator alex padilla, along with other officials, including congressman chu, for example deliver remarks there, a bit of an update on what is happening in monterey park, california. i want to bring back in josh lederman. let's just recap in the last 30 to 40 minutes, we've learned some new pieces of information here, including most critically that one of the people who initially survived the late saturday shooting has now died at the local message center, despite their best efforts, this person was not able to make it, which is a sign of just how tenuous this situation is, even 48 hours after the shooting

itself happened. >> that's right, hallie, and unfortunately, it's something that was not unsuspected, given the intense injuries from gunshots that so many of those patients who were transported to the trauma center had. but we have learned, as you pointed out, from authorities, at the los angeles county usc medical center, that one of those patients, they were treating, has died, bringing the total number of fatalities now to 11. there is another seriously injured person in that hospital, as well as two more who they say are recovering, we know there are additional patients in other hospitals who have been treated, but that is one of the biggest pieces of information that we have gotten, just in the last couple of hours, in addition to some of these details, from the police department, over in california, about past run-ins with the suspect and we of course also for the first time have learned some of the identities of the people who were actually killed including

65-year-old maya nana and lilan lee, including the initial group of 10, all in their 50s, 60s and 70s, hallie. we're happening to get more information about who they were, what kind of lives they lived and who their families were, so we can continue to tell their stories to the american public. >> josh lederman, thank you very much. we will sneak in a quick break. more from washington when we come back. n we come back. introducing astepro allergy. now available without a prescription. astepro is the first and only 24-hour steroid-free spray. while flonase takes hours, astepro starts working in 30 minutes. so you can [ spray, spray ] astepro and go. what's the #1 retinol brand used most by dermatologists? it's neutrogena® rapid wrinkle repair® smooths the look of fine lines in 1-week, deep wrinkles in 4. so you can kiss wrinkles goodbye! neutrogena®

ancestry made it really easy to learn about my family's history. finding military information, newspaper articles, how many people were living in the house and where it was, makes me curious and keeps pulling me in and the photos reminding me of what life must have been like for them. finding out new bits of information about the family has been a wonderful experience, it's an important part of understanding who we are. senate minority leader cluck schumer in the last couple of minutes is demanding house republicans say what exactly it is that party would cut from the federal budget in order to raise the debt ceiling. watch. >> house republicans are serious about taking the debt limit hostage in exchange for spending cuts, the new rules that they adopted require them to bring a

proposal to the floor of the house and show the american people precisely what kind of cuts they want to make. >> the u.s. maxed out its credit basically last thursday, so in the meantime, the treasury is doing what secretary janet yellen is describings a extraordinary measures to keep the country from falling off an economic cliff, and that will hold us over until around january 5th, give to take, tbz , the number of days. and looking at the house freedom caucus on board. a group of ultra conservatives who made a debt limit a bic big part of the speakership fight. what is up behind the scenes? can you tell us? negotiations g behind the scenes about the debt limit according to multiple senior republican and democratic aides. there is a standoff in which the white house is insisting paying the bills is not negotiable and congress should simply raise it.

most democrats with rare exceptions like joe manchin are standing behind president biden and saying negotiate spending cuts separately, not part of the budget. chuck schumer was demanding speaker mccarthy, if you want to include spending cuts in the debt limit, show us a plan, a proposal. mccarthy has not done that. his posture is simply to ask president biden to have a conversation, to begin negotiations, and the white house has said they will talk to mccarthy about a host of other things that mccarthy expects to bring this up in. one of the big problems is, to identify spending cuts, that can get politically painful because you have to point out what to cut and who will be a loser. one revealing moment came when our colleague chuck todd asked one house republican what she would like to cut as part of a debt limit negotiation. >> you have one thing you're ready to put on the table as a spending cut that you think both parties can accept? >> well, i think -- well, obviously no cuts to medicare or medicaid or social security.

that's a nonstarter for either side. but otherwise, it's up to -- i would lean on the agency heads. >> reporter: you didn't hear any proposal from congresswoman mace about what to cut. this is where it gets complicated for kevin mccarthy because if democrats refuse to play ball, he'll have to find 218 votes to come up with a proposal to initiate negotiations and pressure democrats to the table. he'll have to balance the wishes of moderates like congressman brian fitzpatrick, who say default is not an option, that the country has to raise the debt limit one way or the other. there are freedom caucus members like chip roy demanding aggressive spending cuts and others like andy biggs who say the debt limit shouldn't be raised at all. this will be a huge challenge for kevin mccarthy. his big task might be more about getting the freedom caucus to stand down and not retail year to date against him because whatever he gets through the

house has to pass the democrat-led senate and get signed into law by president biden all by june 5th. from the house to the senate side, where they're tied because ruben gallego is ending weeks of speculation today, officially announcing he will run for senate in that state, setting up a possible showdown with the state's current senator, one of them, kyrsten sinema, for her seat come 2024. sinema hasn't said if he'll go for re-election or not. you remember she left the democratic party to become an independent ahead of the next general election. i want to bring in vaughn hillyard for more on this. gallego's campaign announcement is official. nbc has been reporting he's been expected to announce. he said the problem isn't that senator sinema abandoned the democratic party, it's that she abandoned arizona. talk through the dynamics at play. >> democratic groups were already going to have a difficult map in 2024, and now arizona becomes more difficult

because for the democratic senatorial committee, do you stick with independent kyrsten sinema, who was a key figure in the bipartisan infrastructure package, the chips act, you know, played that bipartisan role, though often time she frustrated national democrats from refusing to increase the corporate tax rate as part of build back better. this is a dynamic that is really difficult because now you have a democrat who is running. gallego. when you look at the optics of arizona, most folks i talk to in in arizona consider it a conservative state. democrats have won by narrow margins. there is one who is much more aligned. sorm of his former advisers were mccain advisers. she's looking to jump in as well. you're looking at the prospect

of a potential three-way race here and it will be a decision point, of course, gallego made his decision, but it comes down to kyrsten sinema. is this a bid she wants to take on as part of the re-election campaign? there are a lot of question marks that folks in arizona are wrestling with, as well as national ones. do you weigh in ahead of august of next year? do you weigh in in november? these are tough conversations that are now taking place and there's a long runway for those conversations to continue. >> vaughn hillyard, thank you very much. back to our top story now because in just the last few minutes we've heard from attorney general merrick garland about that shooting in monterey park, california. here's what he said. >> i want to express my deepest condolences to the community of monterey park and to the families and loved ones who are grieving with the enormous loss today. fbi and atf are providing all support possible to our state and local partners, and they will continue to do so. all of us at the justice

department are committed to doing everything in our power to protect our communities from gun violence. >> i want to bring in the mayor of monterey park, henry lo. thank you very much for being with us this morning this afternoon. i know it's another difficult one for you. >> thank you for having us here. thank you for your sympathies. >> how are you doing? let me start there. it's been about 48 hours now. a lot of people around the country are thinking about you and about your neighbors. >> thank you so very much. it's been probably just a tragic time for our community, and i think many of us are still in disbelief that this happened, especially during the weekend, lunar new year, in which the city held its lunar festival near the site of the shooting. this is after a three-year hiatus in which we were unable to hold this festival because of

covid, and so, you know, during the lunar festivity, one that's hopeful for the future and certainly to see, you know, this happen is very disheartening. >> to say the least. i know that there has been some discussion, and i know that you are aware of this, too, because one of the key questions for law enforcement here has been motive, why the shooting happened. >> right. >> there's been some discussions that perhaps this attack may have been linked to some kind of domestic dispute between this alleged shooter and he says ex-wife. what else do you know about that? >> right now we are still trying to determine the motive. i know that's part of the ongoing investigation, and that's what we understand at the moment. >> there is also i think discussion around the fact that this could have been as horrific as it was perhaps even worse were it not for the actions of a

heroic member of your community who basically wrestled the gun away from this alleged shooter at a second location on that saturday night. >> absolutely. >> have you had a chance to speak with him? >> itch not had an opportunity to speak to him, but i can say that, yes, this individual -- two individuals are heroes and probably prevented what could have been an even bloodier event. and i just want to take the time to thank our own police officers who responded within three minutes of the first 911 calls along with our fire paramedics who rushed to provide aid to those victims. >> and in a devastating turn here, as we were coming on the air here today for that broadcast, we found out yet another person has died now at the hospital where they had been treated for their injuries. what should we know? i know not all the victims have been identified here, mr. mayor,

but what do you want people to know about the live lost here and the individuals who were taken from their families? >> yeah. it is sad. it is sad that another person has passed away. i think, you know, what i want to tell the nation, remember, these individuals were a member of -- they were a father, a grandparent, a sibling. and, you know, what's probably devastating to me, i get emotional, lunar new year is a time people come home to see our families. i, myself, although i have to apologize for my mom that i couldn't be home until much later because of the cry us is, but i did come home eventually right around 10:00, 10:30, and sat down for the first meal. i do get emotional because i realize for those victims who

unfortunately had died, they would have been with their family, their families will never whole and essentially they will be unable to do something as simple as enjoy having dinnertime with loved ones. >> yeah. monterey park mayor, henry lo, thank you for being with us at such a difficult time for you and monterey park. so many people this r thinking about you. >> thank you so much. >> continue to find the latest information, the updates from this story and so many others throughout rest of the evening. nicole picks it up with "deadline" right now. hi, everyone. it's 4:00 in new york. it is a story that's become all
