70% increase in demand over the last year as food prices have sky rocketed. >> for organizations like ours, that means having to work round the clock to make sure we're sources more food to serve more people. >> reporter: the typical snap household will see monthly allotments drop by at least $95. for older americans and big families like jessica's, the difference will be hundreds of dollars. the people in washington who are making these decisions, what do you want them to understand about what life is like for you? >> for them to put themselves in our shoes. that we really are struggling out here. please consider it. think about children. mostly children. >> reporter: nbc news, philadelphia. we've got a lot to cover in our second hour of chris jansing reports. let's get right to it. at this hour, chicago voters

casting ballots for one of nine people running for mayor, but it could be weeks before we find out who wins. growing fears in east palestine, ohio. the head of the epa is there now taking questions directly from residents who say they will caught in a political fight. the gang of eight getting its first briefing on classified documents. found at the properties of joe biden, donald trump and mike pence. what they will and won't be able to find out. and a rare live report from inside russian occupied crimea. a critical area russia annexed back in 2014. ukraine's president says the war will not end until his country gets it back. our nbc reporters are across the globe following all of the latest developments. we start with nbc's chief international correspondent, keir simmons, in crimea. you're the first western journalist to enter since the invasion. talk to us about what you're

seeing and finds out. >> reporter: there's a lot of talk about crimea, that russia and ukraine will soon be fighting over this place. we wanted to come here to find out for ourselves what we saw and what we have seen is a lot of russian military. potentially deeply challenging for ukraine. then we went and spoke to ordinary people here. some of the 2.4 million people who live here. and many of them had russian passports. they speak russian. they see themselves as russian. like 73-year-old brachtisera who we found yesterday and asked her about how she sees what looks like may be coming. >> translator: yes, we will all put on uniforms and go to the border to defend ourselves. yes, we would not allow it for zelenskyy. crimea will be ours, honestly.

>> a bomb shelter over there. >> translator: bomb shelter, so what? >> are you frightened? >> translator: if we were younger, say 50 or so, would have definitely gone to help our military. but unfortunately, we're a bit too old for that. >> reporter: crimea has a unique history. they've accused russia of human rights abuses, but reality is that light, that bridge, it's how we came over here. it is one of only two ways you can get to this peninsula. the other is a land bridge in that direction. another example of how challenging it would be for ukraine to take this place. >> it's extraordinary to see a western reporter inside crimea. thank you for that. now to capitol hill where the members of the gang of eight are about to get their long sought after briefing on the classified documents found at the homes of joe biden, donald

trump, and mike pence. garrett haake is with us. this is only a preliminary briefing, so is that going to satisfy lawmakers? >> probably not, chris, is the reality here. i've already heard from mark warner, one of those eight members, who's expressed frustration and he's been asking for a briefing on the what began as just the mar-a-lago classified documents last summer. since last summer. and this is closest they're going to get. there's been a lot of the back and forth between members of the gang of eight. specifically the intel committee members from both chambers but they expect to get more information like they used to with the russia investigation, for example, like when robert mueller was the special counsel who was overseeing a parallel investigation to the work they were doing. in this case, they're being told the justice department is going to hold some of their cards back and for members who expect to get the most classified, the most sensitive information at

their fingertips when they request it, both the intel community leaders and party leaders who make up this gang, that's likely to just not be good enough. now, i just asked speaker mccarthy about this. he's kind of withholding judgment until they get through this briefing expected to be later this afternoon. i suspect when this is over, we're going to be right back out here talking about how these officials want more information. they do not believe they can do their oversight duties where just kind of the headlines about how the department of justice is handling this investigation. they want to know what was in these documents. they want to know what happens next. they want much more granular detail than they're likely to get. >> garrett haake, thank you as always. >> nearly a month after the toxic train derailment, still so many questions from residents. the epa administrator is back in east palestine trying to give them answers as increasingly folks who live there say they feel caught in the middle of a political fight. george soliz is there with the latest.

george, busy day there. you've got a round table at the local high school. epa press conference that i understand the add manipulate straiter is going to do. give us the very latest. >> reporter: yeah, chris, a busy day here in town. the epa administrator starting his day by going to the site to get a look at some of the progress there, the clean up which we'll get to in a second. then he went to the high school here to take questions from students. he joked saying i've taken some hard questions here from the press, but i'm sure you students will ask me even harder ones. a lot of the students there echoing the sentiments of their community, about the water and air quality testing and some of the health concerns that have been rampant in this community. he finished up at a local business before opening an epa welcome center here. just the commitment to this community to make sure their presence is here. back to the derailment. some of the concern is how some of this material is being distributed across state lines. officials across state lines really concerned some of this

material is m coing to their facilities. mind you, these are epa approved and they've been inspected and are able to handle this material, but nonetheless, it is controversial. we had a one-on-one with the epa administrator. i pressed him on some of these concerns. take a listen to what he told me. how are you vetting these locations where the waste and soil has gone? >> we have vetted and will continue to vet facilities because there's a lot of material. water and soil. that would need to leave this site. we want it to leave this site in the safest way possible. extreme rigor based on our regulations, and delivered to site that are prepared to receive them and those communities not be adversely impacted. >> reporter: again that norfolk southern will be responsible for clean up and for paying out all of the clean up costs associated with this saying he is still waiting from the company to get

a detailed plan on how they will move forward in the coming days, weeks, years, saying the epa is ready to step in, ready to fine them up to $70,000 a day if they don't comply and if they have to take over at any point during this process, they can charge them up to three times the incurred cost. >> george, thank you so much for that. jurors in the alex murdaugh trial getting ready to go on a field trip to see the crime scene themselves. we'll talk to a defense attorney who has been to one of those rare field trips. plus, the new bill gains steam on capitol hill that seems to take aim directly at congressman george santos. we'll have those details ahead. and a legal bombshell. a top executive at fox news admitting that -- endorsed false election fraud claims. so what might that mean for the case against fox? you're watching chris jansing reports only on msnbc. watching reports only on msnbc. maybe try switching your car insurance to progressive. you could save hundreds. i don't know, dad. ♪♪

so we're nearing the close. testimony about to resume in the alex murdaugh murder trial, but there's just one more rebuttal witness then the prosecution is expected to rest its case. that will pave the way from that bombshell request from the defense asking the judge to allow jurors to see the crime scene for themselves and that trip is expected to happen tomorrow. i'm joined by defense attorney david s. rudolph. he has taken jurors to the crime scene on two separate occasions. thank you so much for being with us. >> thanks for having me. >> you know one of the defense attorneys. i want to play for you part of what he told the court about why he wants the jury to visit the crime scene. >> compared to where maggie's body was, where the dog house was. just can't appreciate the spatial issues without actually

seeing them. >> is he right about that? what could the jury get from going to the crime scene itself? >> well, he's absolutely right about that. in the two cases that i did, it was for precisely that reason because the pictures could not tell the entire story about the layout and the dimension. so for example in the peterson case, the events happened in a stairway that was very narrow. >> can i just stop you for a second to let people know you're talking about the 2003 michael peterson case. a lot of folks might know it. it was the focus of the documentary series, the staircase. that's what you wanted them to see. it was kind of a narrow back staircase? >> exactly. i wanted them to be able to see that it would have been very difficult. probably impossible, for the events to have unfolded is way the prosecution expert claimed. in another case, i wanted them to see how close a road was to a

door so they could get a sense of how it was that the victim ended up in the road after being pushed out of a door. so it's always a matter of space and dimensions. >> so based on what you know, and i don't know how closely you've been able to follow this case, what do you think is the best case scenario for the defense? what might the jury see when they get to the estate? >> well, you know, i think it really depends on the layout of the feed room and to the extend of the feed room and the positions of the two victims are inconsistent with there being a single shooter or inconsistent with anything that the prosecution alleges that mr. murdaugh did. that's what he's looking for. he's looking for in essence to impeach the scene that has been painted by the prosecution. >> you're the perfect guest

because you have done this twice and i understand every trial is different, but can you take us inside typically of what happens on one of these jury field trips? first of all, i'm guessing that excited might not be the right word, but they're really interested to see what they've heard so much about. how long are they at the scene? can they ask questions? take us inside one of these trips. >> sure, and they are interested, obviously, because they've been hearing about the scene for a long time and now they're getting a chance to actually be in it and that's different than watching or looking at photos. the way it normally works is the jurors will be gathered up by the sheriffs deputies. put on a bus. they'll be taken to the scene with security. they'll be let out of the bus and they'll be told to not discuss anything that they see. to not comment on anything that they see because that's for the jury room.

that's for deliberation. so literally, it's a field trip. it's a silent field trip. they're to look around. they're to take as much time as they want. sometimes they'll take measurements. sometimes they won't. but there's no talking. and then after whatever period of time, and usually the judge is going to be there and supervise it, he's going to say is everybody satisfied? you've seen enough? and when all the jurors say they've seen enough, and all the jurors have to be satisfied, not just a majority. then they're loaded back into the bus and taken back to the courthouse. >> what do you think the chances are these trips change minds or become a major influence in the ultimate verdict? >> you know, i don't know if it's a major influence, but it certainly gives you a basis for arguing things that you wouldn't otherwise be able to argue. you could say that a stairway is

narrow and couldn't swing an object in it, but when the jurors are there, you can feel that. they're not relying on what you say. they can feel it themselves. and that can be really important. i don't think it's the be all end all, but it's part of a mosaic that a defense lawyer wants to create so that the jury understands the true facts. >> david, we know you're a busy guy and we thank you for taking the time. fascinating stuff. >> appreciate it. in chicago, voters are at the polls this hour. the incumbent mayor in the fight of her life in this crowded contest. let's go to marisa in chicago. lori lightfoot is in danger of becoming the first incumbent of losing an election in four decades. what have you been seeing where you are? how's the turnout and have you had a chance to talk to any voters? >> one of the most noteworthy

things here is the lack of confidence is whether the mayor will keep her job as mayor. it's no secret is that being a mayor of any city, a top city, we're talking about the third largest city in the country, especially one as specific as chicago, is no easy task. we had the covid-19 pandemic. all kinds of violence. gun violence. in addition to the 2020 uprisings. the riots. the tensions with police and conversations on how policing, if it should change and what that would look like. on top of that, very chicago specific instances like the square off between the teacher's union and city which led to students missing school. it hasn't been an easy time for her and that's something we're seeing reflected here. when we look at the polls across the board, across demographics, the city, we're seeing the number one is crime. we had a chance to speak to some

voters before they headed into the polling place. >> keeping the violence down in chicago. that's my main issue. >> chicago has had a rough couple of years as everywhere, but i think chicago struggled more than other cities in terms of recovering financially and economically. and some of that attached to the crime piece. so that's the number one thing we've got to make our chicago great again. >> so nine different candidates. many voters told me it was hard to choose which one they wanted to vote for. so i'm going to keep in mind the polls close add 7:00 and we're supposed to find out if there's a runoff, which is likely because there are so many candidates, but early voting turnout in record numbers means it might be a while before we find out who's going to the runoff. >> more to come. thank you so much. appreciate that. a new york republican might be going after the home state

president biden just moments ago landing in virginia maybe giving us a preview of his unofficial 2024 playbook. the president is expected to take aim at republicans next hour when he talks affordable healthcare in virginia beach. that comes as we're also seeing his administration fight to cancel student debt in court today. and as the administration moves to guarantee childcare for some workers in the computer chip industry. then there's the new polling that shows this economic focus might be working. a recent npr poll shows him gaining support among democrats. i want to bring in democratic strategist, basil. are we going to go back to james carville it's the economy stupid? >> i think that state of the union address was the biggest

platforms that joe biden has had probably in his political life. with all of these conversations swirling about should he or shouldn't he run, he went into that state of the union, he seemed vibrant, he took the republicans to task and came out with a bump that seems to have lasted to this day. we hope that it can continue, but focusing on the economy. focusing on what republicans are trying to do to withdraw or to diminish the social safety net. all of those things together i think has helped him and democrats coalesce around him. >> then he also after that state of the union where he got very good reviews, he goes out into the country, right. starting to become a rite of passage for presidents. shows a lot of energy. then he goes to ukraine. then to poland. and people saying, okay, well now clearly he's trying to show us he's not the tired, 80 something guy. that he can still do the job.

i think, i'm curious about what you think about how tricky it's going to be in say the next year. presumably, he's not going to have anybody to run against. the focus is young people who are running on the republican side. what do you do as an incumbent to sort of off set that? because they're going to be getting the lions share of attention. >> out from that, one of the hardest things democrats are going to have to do and he's going to have to do is maintain the coalition that helped us in 2022. those disaffected republicans and young voters who need to make sure they are staying engaged going forward. and as we talk about things like student loan debt, just keep hammering away on those issues. i think the republicans in some ways overplayed their hand on the supreme court. they are making decisions that are not in line where the country is and joe biden could use that in ways as a foil to

motivate, mobilize democrats on the left. what's going to happen on the right i think is just more and more turmoil. you're going to have trump and desantis, at least for the moment, vying to see who can out trump, out crazy the other. from that point of view, you'll have biden and jeffries say look at what they're doing. they don't have it together, but we democrats we have a policy for the american people. >> you understand polling and a lot of people say polls like this this early really don't mean anything, but it's moving in the right direction. a series of polls have shown this. when you talk about mobilizing, frankly, it's hard to get a lot of enthusiasm for somebody who doesn't look like a winner. so how much could this help? >> it helps a lot because what it will do potentially is clear the field and help with the fund raising. that's really critical because they're going to spend a lot of money. there are multiple candidates

putting a lot of money on the ground. democrats really need to sort of step up to the plate. you don't have anybody stepping out and saying well, i'm going to wait to see who else jumps in. it's about coalescing around the president of the united states, which i'm even shocked i have to say, but we need to coalesce around the president of the united states. >> his wife certainly made it clear on friday when she talked to the ap that he was planning to run. thank you. don't go anywhere. meantime, a new york house republican is ramping up the pressure on george santos, circulating a bill that could prevent the embattled congressman from ever making money off of his story. sahil is on capitol hill. i guess i can say there's been some history between these two men. anthony esposito. tell us about this bill because it's a step beyond. >> that's right. this new effort comes from the congressman who is a long island

republican representing a neighboring district to santos. he is circulating a proposal that would implicitly rebuke his colleague and would quote, let's put this up. prohibit members of the house of representatives who are convicted of offenses involving financial or campaign finance fraud from receiving compensation for biographies, media appearances or expressive or creative works and for other purposes. unquote. there's some elements of this proposal that are not yet finalized including how it would be enforced. it was confirmed to nbc news by the congressman's office which told me that he is circulating it among his colleagues. very confident that it will be introduced and one republican familiar with this effort said it represents a genuine distaste for the actions of santos among house republicans. now, the context of this, chris, is worth noting a recent poll found that 78% of top voters in

santos' district want him to resign. a brand-new one found that 66% of all new yorkers want him to resign. the congressman and the other two new york republicans who flipped competitive districts from democrats in the 2022 election have all called on him to resign. what is santos saying? i reached out to his office and got a comment. let's put it on the screen. a spokesperson says quote, it is unfortunate that after two years of policy that have been put forth by house democrats in the biden administration that there is legislative focus on a specific member of congress who has a legislative body. our top priorities should be tackling high inflation as well as reducing high levels of crime, unquote. not only is santos refusing to resign, he's keeping the door wide open to running for re-election in 2024. >> thank you so much. john fetterman's team says the pennsylvania senator is on

the path to recovery though he does remain in the hospital after checking himself in for depression this month. his absence raising questions about what's next. the governor told us he's been in touch with fetterman's wife. >> i've spoken to giselle and texted with her. i hope he's getting the care he needs. it was a brave thing he did. asking for help and asking for that care. i expect him to come back. i expect him to serve in the united states senate for a good long while. there is no contingency plan. >> his team says he is been updated daily on senate business and news. the stunning revelation coming out of that defamation suit against fox news. what confidential network information murdoch gave to jared kushner. k information murdoch gave to jared kushner. business needs on the 5g network it deserves.

stunning new revelations from fox news. rupert murdoch admits he allowed some of the biggest names on his network to endorse false election claims on air. the new filing allege he shared confidential information about biden campaign ads and debate strategy with jared kushner. joining me, danny, and base l is back is us. he admits he allowed some hosts to endorse these false claims. here's a little sample. >> this is disgusting and we cannot allow america's election to be corrupted. >> you have every right not of

faith and confidence. >> a small sample, but what are the political implications? is it all baked in? >> some of it, but i think as we go forward, the challenge is how do i get young people to believe that we're telling the truth and that we're not cooking the books ourselves. it's extraordinarily infuriating, but the reality is that a lot of people believe that fox news was the communications arm of donald trump and when i continue to come back about this making this point that it was never a big lie, it was a big conspiracy because for all of the entire apparatus to have the cable, to get us to january 6th, that is not a one off event. there had to have been multiple people engaged in talking about how they were going to essentially defraud the american people and we see, you're the lawyer, but to me, this is as close to a smoking gun as you're ever going to get. >> is it? >> yes. and if you look at the immediate goal of getting this case thrown

out because that's what fox is trying to do. no judge in his or her right mind after these kinds of revelations would ever throw the case out. by the way, the odds are always stacked against a defendant who tries to move a summary judgment to throw the case out. but it's important to note that streejically once that motion for summary judgment is denied, that's when defendants really start thinking about settling the case. they want their free shot to kick a case out, but once they realize it's going to trial, they start talking with the insurance carrier and gets real because now they will not be able to stop that trial. >> let me ask you about the importance of a couple of they thinks quickly. one, in a deposition, murdoch acknowledged he could have stopped his network from having people like rudy giuliani on to stop the spread of misinformation, but he didn't. how does that fit into this? >> the only wiggle room i could see is the notion that i know that now i didn't know then. but i don't see a lot of wiggle

room otherwise in this deposition transcript because the whole purpose of a deposition transcript is to lock somebody into their testimony so when you get to trial, if they testify inconsistently, you can bash them over the head figuratively, of course, with that testimony and make them look really bad to a jury. so you have these admissions that already look bad and none of these witnesses can vary from it at trial. so while the significance today for the motion for summary judgment may not be as dramatic as we approach trial, that defendant and its insurance carriers are thinking about what they know the testimony will be and it's scary. >> so i want to ask you both about the same piece of information from again that same deposition from murdoch and get the legal and political perspective on it. during trump's campaign, rupert provided trump's son-in-law and senior adviser, kushner, with

confidential information about biden as it were on fox along with debate strategy. could this shares of confidential information somehow be illegal or how does that fit into this case? >> even if it's not illegal, i think it's damaging to these civil case because it shows a motive. if these people are aligned with the trump team, then it goes further to suggest that this was not an accident. we didn't have someone like sydney powell on then she blurted out this information. it tends to show concerted action. an agreement tacitly or otherwise to work with trump campaign arguably to put out the most dangerous act of deception ever, which was that this election was stolen. i think it's compelling for this civil case. if true that they may have been working with the trump campaign because after all, who are they serving by having those guests on and running that commentary?

>> if you're a democratic candidate in the future, what do you do with this kind of information? >> i don't want to do anything with fox news because they're going to give away your information. what could have been stolen or communicated. how much money they were going to spend on ads, where they were going to hit. the language and messaging of them so trump and his surrogates could go out and counter. so why would you do anything with them if all you know they're going to do is run genls you. thises a tv network. this isn't another campaign. but clearly those two things, they're one in the same. >> danny and basil, whose students are here observing this, trying to take our jobs maybe in the future. thank you for being here. forget the chinese spy balloon. we're going to tell you how china is stealing far more information according to a new report just in time for a new

the murdaugh double murder trial because there's something interesting playing out. for the first time in this trial, the state's attorney general, a guy named allen wilson, is questioning a witness. this is expected to be the last witness. now exactly why the ag has come, we don't know. although it has happened before in south carolina. the jury is hearing from kenneth kinsey. a couple of moments ago, he disputed that testimony from a defense witness who suggested the shooter was between 5'2 and 5'4". it's one of the world east most popular past times. tiktok. most of those users are 16 to 34 and its videos range from dance and drama to food and fashion and most of the time, just a lot

of fun. critics say there's a dangerous side with the app's parent company in china. is information collected from users being used for intelligence or disinformation purposes? as of today, tiktok is banned on all u.s. government eshed devices. the white house says agencies have 30 days to delete the app. as a new report suggests that concerns over china and cyber espionage go far beyond tiktok. ryan nobles joins us from capitol hill along with our justice and intel correspondent, ken dilanian. ryan, this is a big day in house on china beyond that ban. the house foreign affairs committee is marking up a bill that could ban tiktok and it's got a lot of the big users of that app worried. take a listen. >> we're all 18. like let me share my information with china if i want to. like, i literally could care less. >> my students don't like being

told what they can and can't do. >> i'm a little terrified. i'm not built for a real job. >> i love that. a total ban seems unlikely, but what is the level of concern on the hill over tiktok? >> well, to answer your first question, you're right. it doesn't seem as though a full ban on tiktok is something that has enough votes to pass the house and senate and then be voted into law by the president. there is as you point out, widespread concern about the widespread use of tiktok across the united states. they say that the intelligence on this is very real. that the chinese government who is a part owner in bike dance, the company that is the parent company of tiktok, is definitely has the possibility.

the fact it is used by so many americans makes it a real threat. that's also the problem for lawmakers as you show in that bit of video there. it would be very unpopular if a ban on tiktok was put across the country or was taken off personal phones and there's a question about how you would implement a ban such as that. lawmakers are trying to find the sweet spot of where it can be still available to americans, but still reduce the threat of china using it to spy on americans. >> there's always that prime time hearing tonight by the china committee. we don't see many of those in prime time. the chair says they plan to highlight the threats china poses to u.s. interests. what's actually happening there? >> this really is chris one of the rare instances of bipartisan cooperation. there seems to be quite a bit of consensus that china's becoming a big threat to the united

states on a number of threats both militarily and economically. part of what they're going to highlight tonight is the military threat that china potentially offers. they're going to talk about what they see as human rights abuses in china. and they're also going to talk about areas of cooperation where legislature can be implemented to try and hold off that threat. of course in the last congress they passed the chips act, which was designed to try and help the united states compete more on an economic basis. that's also part of what they plan to discuss tonight during this prime time hearing. >> there's this new report, ken, that reveals china linked cyber hackers are gathering more information by breaking into computer networks in the u.s. and around the world than the spy balloons. tell us about this report. >> it's from a leading cybersecurity company, crowd strike. but it could be in. this is a cybersecurity world that chinese hacking is

epidemic. it's everywhere. and it's been going on for decades really. u.s. government only really started talking about it a decade ago. several years ago, i was at a forum where the head of the national security agency called it the greatest transfer of wealth. chinese theft of property from western and american companies. stealing trade secrets that help chinese companies get an advantage. they've taken over whole industries as a result of this. what this report shows is that it's worse than ever. in 2015, the obama administration negotiated what they said was an understanding with the chinese government to stop this kind of hacking. it stopped for a period of a few months then began to pick back up steadily. experts tell me. and now it's once again at high levels. the problem is companies are improving their cybersecurity all the time. and the biden administration is taking steps to try to facilitate that. but the hackers seem to always stay one step ahead. there's no way to keep a

sophisticated intelligence agency from getting inside your network. if they're determined to do so. >> ken, ryan, good to see you. thank you so much. it's hard to believe, but hip hop is turning 50 this year. in middle age, it's still an unlikely political force finding now a new generation of disrupters and influencers. msnbc correspondent and host of the into america podcast has the story. ♪♪ >> grand master flash and furious five bringing big audiences the message. to public enemies, fight the power. pulsating through spike lee's do the right thing and kendrick lamar's all right. over five decades, hip hop culture has evolved from dance,

generation did it again. wyclef chanting obama's campaign theme. yes, we can. >> yes, we can! yes, we can! >> and jay-z joining forces with obama's campaign to help woo a new generation of voters. >> i don't think barack obama gets elected as president of the united states in 2008 without hip hop. >> the hip hop generation coming together to form the so-called obama coalition. the most diverse voting block ever including 66% of voters under 30. but success beget back lash. >> i think the success of efforts like the kind of surging of young people, people of color and women into the political process is precisely why we are seeing the levels of voters

suppression and repression that we're seeing today. >> this year, state lawmakers in at least 32 states introduced 150 bill to restrict voting. many of which disproportionately affect black and brown communities yet hip hop remains key to the conversation. sometimes showing up in surprising ways. >> if you don't know, now you know. >> hip hop has the power if we choose, to be the movement we always, you know, dreamed about. ♪♪ >> thank you tremayne lee and he goes more in depth on the latest episode of into america. finally, we've got good news to share. five months after hurricane ian battered southwest florida with sanibel island hit especially hard, the sanibel lighthouse survived the storm and now is shining again.
