learning foreign policy. thank youe very much. >> great to be with you. thank you. and that does it for our edition of "andrea mitchell reports." what a busy day. another one tomorrow. follow us on social media @mitchell reports. chris jansing reports starts right now. good-day. i'm chris jansing live at msnbc headquarters in new york city. high drama in the house where speaker mccarthy is taking a leap into the unknown, launching a new impeachment inquiry against president biden. the red flags are everywhere, for the president, for mccarthy, for republicans, and for the country itself. does this sink any chances of stopping a government shutdown now just two and a half weeks away? plus, mother nature at her worst. in libya as many as 10,000 people are feared dead from floods. inm morocco, the death toll is nearly 3,000 as teams pick

through what a remains of entir towns after last week's earthquake. we have the latest on both of those unfolding disasters. and donald trump trying to win the legal battles before they even get going. the former president filing a notione dismiss one case, and urging a judge to recuse herself in another. does either effort have any chance h of working? we start with the perfect storm of political and ideological battles marking the return of the house to capitol hill. some of those fights intentionally aimed at o disrupting thete work of congre, even as they risk disrupting the u.s. economy and americans' lives at the same time. let me explain, right now, congress isla facing an end of e month deadline to fund the governmento or risk it shuttin down. freezing federal programs and putting thousands of p people o of work. now there had been a plan to fund the government short term in order to allow time for

negotiations, but some hard rightns house conservatives won back it unless it addresses what they continue to say is the weaponization of the doj and so-called woke policies at the pentagon, among other things. making matters even more complicated, speaker kevin mccarthy announced just about theou 90 minutes ago he's directing housein republicans t open anpu impeachment inquiry io president biden.hm here's how heen described the effort. >> these aree allegations of abuse of power, obstruction and corruption. they warrant further investigation by the house of representatives.on i do not make this decision lightly. regardless of your party or who you voted for, these facts should concern all americans. we are committed to getting the answers to the american public, nothing more, nothing less. we will gog wherever the evidee takes us.

>> i want to bring in nbc's ali vitali on capitol hill, jonathan lemire, plittco's white house bureau chief and host of "way too early" tim miller writer at large for "the bulwark." tim and jonathan are msnbc analysts. ali, what exactly does mccarthy's announcement mean? >> yeah. i think that's a really good ea question, and, of course, we know that house republicans, as the majoritys, party here, alrey have subpoena power and we've a watched theman exercise that ov the courseem of the last eight months. using each of these committees that have since been empowered bync the speaker in the so-call impeachment inquiry they've been speak and doing inquiries into president biden through the lens of his sop hunter and myriad other points of their investigation they've embarked on over the time they've had the power of subpoena. what this could do is allow them to dig deeper into bank records, but really, it's meant to plicate mccarthy's right flank and it's not clear it's doing

that. he's faced pressure from people like marjorie taylor greene and matt gaetz to push poords on the impeachment of president biden. this p allows him to say he's doingm an inquiry without sendg an impeachment vote to the floor. he wouldn't have the votes for that. this was meant to sort of let the steamnt out of the pot on t right, but matt gaetz on a phone call and floor just now telling reporters andt saying on the house floorpo this was, in his words, a, baby step. it might not be enough.ot this continues to put mccarthy inpu a political hard place. >> soit jonathan, at some pointn that speech, speaker mccarthy described what they uncovered as alleges and then at other points he called them facts. which are they? >> far more allegations. this has been the issue for this group of house republicans from the h beginning. they haven'te founded a there, there. they point to hunter biden. hunter biden has been charged with a crime. he's going to face a federal indictment by the end of this

year. none has anything to do with his father, no evidence connecting that tode president biden whatsoever. and the members of the republican house even acknowledged they have not found any smoking gun just yet. and the white house has prepared for e this. they've got a war room two dozen peopleom that have been staffin up for about a year and they also don't seem overly concerned. no white house wants to go into an impeachment inquiry. they are time consuming and draining and end up in unexpected directions but they think the political risk lies with the republicans pohere. this is anth overreach. and that they feel like most american people don't think the president has done anything wrong when it comes to the hunter biden and they feel like this could actually really blow up inll the republicans' faces next year. this is a white house that put out a public statement and condemned what this is a and th believe this is further evidence that mccarthy is at the beck and call of the hard right members of the house,ca which they po point as the dominant force in thet gop right now, extremism,

and they present themselves as theey alternative. >> among the people looking for the smoking gun is congressman kevin buck, once again, on our last hour with andrea mitchell, said he doesn't see the evidence yet. let me play that. >> i think what i wanted to do is look at the evidence and i will go where the evidence takes me. i'm going to getce a briefing later in the week on what evidence links the president at the timesi vice president joe biden to hunter biden's activities. i haven't seen that link yet, and so i'm reluctant to agree with speaker mccarthy.uc >> so we've got the freedom caucus republicans who want to head down this road. what about the rest of the republican party and what a power didty they have? >> well, look, everybody in the republican house at least has a little bit of power because mccarthy's speakership is so thin. the majority is so thin. it's only a five-seat republican

majority. we livedpu through the umpteen votes it took to make him become speaker. if anybody wants to throw around muscle in the house republican caucus, they can. it's just that moderates, the so-called moderates, kind of biden district republicans like donn bacon or mike waller out new york, have been reluctant to actually throw their weight around and try to, you know, push mccarthy one way or the other in lieu of instead trying to bead good soldiers and find, you know, areas, you know, for them to have their own political brand. we haven't seen it. ken buck is showing how easy it is if you wantsh to put the bras on something, you can. i think thathi both -- kind of weird way and weird position saying buck and gaetz are making a good point. thego house was already investigating joe biden. kevin mccarthy said he was going to bring to the house floor a vote on whether they would have an impeachment inquiry, but he knew he didn't have the vote for

that so he didn't do it and makes this i announcement whichs the same stuff they've already been doing. i think that, you know, shows just kind of how desperate he is to try to find something that would unite his conference. it doesn't seem to have worked. >> yeah. ali, of course, tim is right, house oversight has been investigating president biden for eight months now, but how do you see this impeachment inquiry potentially complicating the fight over governmentti funding? >> yeah. everything is happening all at once right now, chris, and i think the clock is ticking until september 30th as we knew it would be because in the midst of nowau announcing he backs this impeachment inquiry, which tim is right, mccarthy previously said this is snag would only happenis with a vote on the flo, wouldn't had come from him as a speaker, a dozen or so days later it is coming from him as the speaker because themi reali isth he lacks the votes within s conference to do vothis, but at the same time,do the way that i complicates government funding isca that same way the same gro ofam people the freedom caucus

that's meant to be appeased by this impeachment inquiry news, are theea same people who standn mccarthy'san path on government funding. in my conversations over recess with several of them they're fine with shutting down the government. we know the painit that brings americans a, but these folks on the republican side have said they're fine withha shutting th government down if it means that they can disrupt what they're calling business as usual on the spending front. now there's a very limited amount of time here, so whether they're good with a shutdown or not, the reality is, that there's a very limited amount of time forry them to actually cobe together these appropriations bills which they are very behind on a and actually pass them and then that's nothing to say of the politics behind the scenes. we just heard congressman matt gaetz on the floor and i asked him in a phone call, he says mccarthy needs to come into compliance with the deals that he made in january to become speaker. a big part of that was spending deals and gaetz is giving him until the end of the month.

>> whaten does that mean, make good onha that? do we have any idea mccarthy agreeing to back this impeachment wins him the conservative votes he needs for a short-term spending bill is? >> not s really. it was important to listen to matt gaetz, even if the motion fails it's going to succeed because it continues to put mccarthy in a neutralized position. for him compliance means doing certain spending bills, moving forward on b impeachment in a rl tangible way. the fact that gaetz is calling this in hisga words a baby step signifies the step that an impeachment inquiry is notes an impeachment. we know that you can't do an impeachment without actually voting to move on that. so this is sort of a difference of rhetoric saying that it's an inquiry and not just an outright impeachment and the members of the far right conference here who want to see an impeachment want to see a real impeachment, not just an inquiry. this isn't earning mccarthy the points with theng people he need to earn the points with. >> a member of the house freedom

caucus chip royhe talked about what it would take to support a short-term spending bill, and he focused specifically on the defense department aspect. here's what he said. >> if you come at me with a just rubber stamp of the existing dechts defense when i'm listening to the secretaries over there, you know, wanting to go after tommy tuberville because he's saying how about you stop unlawfully funding abortion tourism, why would i fund transgender surgeries, why would i fund the division, equity and inclusion offices that of the pentagon. there might be flexibility on the dollar levels. >> tim, realistically do you see a way kevin mccarthy can get a cr, continuing resolution, that conservatives will support and could potentially pass the house and senate? >> no. he could get a bill that democrats could support, right, but now he finds himself back in the john boehner situation, right. i think that's very possible

that he could work with democrats and half the republicans in the anhouse. they could cobble something together. chip roy isn't going for anything. anything chip roy goes for, defunding the department of defense because of transgender surgeries, whatever insane culture war stuff he wants, is never going to pass the senate, which is controlled by democrats. the only way to avoid a government shutdown is for kevin mccarthy to suck ittd up and do deal withup democrats. if hede does that he runs down e motion to vacate, you know, alley one moreo time. >> so in our last minute, jonathan, talk about the decision making on the democratic side.si obviously, they don't want the government to shut down, and they don't t know who might be elevated to speaker if mccarthy is removed. so what are their calculations at this point when it comes to trying to i guess work with a party that is simultaneously target the president? >> yeah. republicans in the senate to this>> point have been decent partners on a lot of legislation

they've try to do there. mcconnell has been strong on ukraine and said he does not believe the government should be shut down. we've a heard from some republicans today saying they're not seeing any there, there for this impeachment inquiry. there's a chance the senate may jam some funding bills towards the house making life that much more l difficult. the democrats see this as a political opportunity and think this is -- though a government shutdown would be bad for everyone. they believe the gop is out of step for voters and that could pay dividends next november. >> ali, jonathan, tim, thank you all so much. there is absolute horror in libya where entire neighborhoods are under water. cars flipped over smashed into each other after a pair of dams collapsed. washing away roads and buildings. we're live with the rescue efforts under way now when we return in 60 seconds. that's w'!

we have breaking news out of libya where authorities keep upping the estimate. now estimating as many as 3,000 people there are dead. at least 10,000 more still missing after mediterranean storm daniel collapsed dams near multiple coastal cities and unleashed catastrophic floods across the north african nation. this is the aftermath in the northeastern city of marj. acres of farmland flooded out. many places the roads turning to rivers and washing away entire neighborhoods. you can see emergency crews in libya's fourth largest city earlier today assisting cars and drivers caught up in the floods. nbc news foreign correspondent josh letterman is following this story for us. what do we know about where things stand right now as the sun sets in libya? >> reporter: well, chris, according to authorities on the ground there in libya, the health system in the area has now collapsed. the few remaining functional

hospitals in the derna area are now essentially sorting grounds for the bodies coming in by the hundreds. you mentioned that death toll, we have been seeing in the last hours the death toll cease increase by the thousands. part of the reason it's difficult to get a handle ons scope of the disaster right now is a lot of bodies according to local officials are buried under rubble or were swept out into the mediterranean sea when the floodwaters descended on this area. i want you to hear from an official from the red cross and red crescent society who talked about what they're seeing on the ground. >> huge in the thousands, but what we can confirm now thousands of people have lost their lives, thousands of people have lost their homes, and thousands of families are stranded or lost. >> reporter: a disaster of this magnitude would be difficult for any country to respond to in the

best of times, but these are not the best of times in libya. remember, for the last decade or so, this country has essentially been in a state of civil conflict with multiple rival governments fighting for control, each backed by different militias that are fighting each other, and so there's been a lot of neglect to the crumbling infrastructure there. it's difficult to get information. it's difficult to get assistance flowing into these hard-hit areas, but we are now finally starting to see some of that assistance trickling in. i spoke with an official here in doha who told me that qatar will be sending two aircraft this evening leaving from the air base here in doha heading first to benghazi to bring supplies eventually to the flood hit areas. we also heard from president biden a little while ago in statement where he said that u.s. is providing funds and also coordinating with the u.n. and libyan authorities figuring out

how the u.s. can help. chris? >> josh letterman, thank you for that new update. now to morocco where anger and desperation are mounting four days after a devastating earthquake. at this hour at least 2900 people confirmed dead and as many as 300,000 in need of humanitarian aid. rescue teams are continuing to stroug reach remote villages where locals say they feel abandoned by their government. left alone to dig through rubble for their loved ones. morocco's reluctance to accept international help has baffled foreign governments. so far allowing only four countries to help and ignoring offers from the u.s., the u.n., and several major european nations. nbc's raf sanchez is reporting from marrakesh. where does this search and rescue mission stand right now? what can you tell us? >> for families missing a loved one they are hoping against hope there will be more rescues. late last night, a young boy was

actually pulled out from underneath the rubble in one of those remote villages up in the high atlas mountains that is giving a new sense of energy and direction to those rescue teams who are still fanned out all across disaster zone. being brutally realistic, we are outside what experts call the golden window, the first 72 hours after a disaster. it is difficult to survive under rubble without water in this heat under these conditions. a lot of the rescue effort is pivoting to recovery trying to get bodies out from underneath the rubble. we spoke to a spanish rescue team and they said they are sending their search dogs home because they believe at this point there is no chance of finding anybody else alive. there are still so many challenges, though, beyond the rescue facing mohr morocco. one finding shelter for the untold thousands of people who have lost their homes. we met a grandmother called zahra in a remote village on a

hillside and i want to show you a little bit of our conversation. we're here because all the houses fell down, she says. we have nothing. all our belongings, our money, clothes, everything was inside. this is everything you have left. unwrapping her hijab to show us an injury. >> here in the back of the head as the roof came down. a brick. she mentions the anger and frustration of people here. we saw that up close earlier. we were in the larger towns a moroccoen military convoy were distributing tents and people were waiting in the baking sun for hours, but as they got to the front of the line some found that there were not enough tents to go around. it feels extraordinary to say it, chris, but some ways, those people are the lucky ones because they are not in the most remote villages. even if they are sleeping in improvised shelters they have ac

access to food and water. there are real questions about whether mohr morocco should have accepted more international aid. the u.s. has sent a small survey team from the usaid development agency, but there has been no agreements at this point about a larger american deployment and that is raising a lot of questions, not just here, but around the world, about whether politics has got mixed up in this recovery effort. >> raf sanchez, thank you very much for that. for more on the relief effort i want to bring in vice president of humanitarian affairs at care. thank you for being with us. what are the biggest challenges for your organization there right now? >> thank you very much. the biggest challenges include, first of all, access to the people who are affected because let us remember the atlas high mountains are not the best to access even on the best of days. then people have suffered

massive trauma and there's so much fear. we are hearing from people repeatedly, children are crying, they don't want to go back to the houses to sleep. people are sleeping out in the open. there is risk of wild animals around. families are taking turns to sleep and protect them. the other thing we are hearing because the terrain is hilly there are places where there aren't many open spaces, so there is very limited -- limitation of space for people to set up some sort of temporary accommodations. a lot of people have gone away. the sad things we're hearing, many times because of the trauma, state of despair, they are reluctant to leave their homes. we have heard heartbreaking things like exit our home to survive for how long. we live here as long as we can and then we'll die. then there are urgent needs

related to food, table drinking water, sanitation, availability of latrines. a lot of need around all those areas. >> so clearly there is desperation, understandable levels of frustration we heard in our previous report. what can you do to relief it and what help do you still need? >> so i am very positive today because care medical got the green light to operate and deliver humanitarian assistance, so our teams are continuing with their assessment along with the local communities in coordination with the authorities to deliver our humanitarian response and our plan is to coordinate with local women's groups and engage the local women's groups who help in the delivery. this will ensure that the needs of the women and girls are met who can question the ability to make sure that aid is

distributed equally, objectively and per the needs. so we are mobilizing resources, funds and capacity to bring all these together so that in coordination with the authorities, we can rapidly scale up our humanitarian response so in the first phase, again, we're focusing on food and drinking water, some bit of health care, shelter, and then in the next phase we will be focusing on early recovery including also children who are unable to go to school, so that is the response plan which care has embarked on. >> we thank you so much for your time and we are so appreciative there are organizations like yours available and willing to help in these -- operate situations. a pennsylvania community paralyzed with fear after another sight of an escaped murderer. why residents are in virtual

a homeowner found cavalcante inside his garage reaching for a gun. here's what happened next. >> he grabbed a .22 rifle that was leaning in the corner of the garage. the homeowner drew a pistol and fired at cavalcante as he fled with the rifle. >> they don't think he was hit, by the way, this isn't just any gun, it is a .22 caliber with a scope and a flashlight mounted on it taken by a man desperate and has killed before. nbc's lindsey riser is following this for us. i know federal officials have said yesterday they're kind of settling for a long haul, but there have been two more news conferences today. does it seem like officers feel they're getting any closer? >> reporter: they do feel like they have him in a containment area, but chris, that area is 8 square miles, it's wooded, hilly, and it's difficult to find somebody who doesn't want to be found. there are a lot of barns and nooks and crannies where cavalcante could be hiding.

now, you mentioned those new developments overnight. they started with a sight last night where a woman says she saw a man crouched on the wood line and then about two hours later the incident happened at that home near where we are here where that homeowner said he stole a rifle, shot at him, but authorities don't believe he's injured. let's go ahead and listen to what pennsylvania governor said this morning. >> we're doing everything in our power to make sure that you are safe. i would just urge you to keep your doors locked when you're inside. i would urge you to make sure that your cars are locked. that you don't leave things out on your porches or in areas where others can get to. i urge you to be vigilant and call us if you see something that looks suspicious. >> reporter: urging people not to leave things out. he's ditched his prison boots and stolen work boots. he ditched the hoodie on the

doorbell camera. police believe he's shirtless wearing blue pants and somewhere in this containment area that's about 10 minutes from where i am, there's about the 500 law enforcement personnel. they say he's desperate, violent before and he could do it again. >> lindsey riser, thank you for that. to new video from overseas, showing the moment that north korea's kim jong-un arrived in russia today, with a high stakes meeting with vladimir putin with implications on the war in ukraine. as "the new york times" puts it, this time kim has something putin's needs, arm and ammo that could sustain the war in ukraine and escalating western concerns about their growing alliance. nbc news chief foreign correspondent richard engel following all of this for us. what do we know about this expected meeting between the two leaders and what the west plans to do if, in fact, there is an arms deal? >> reporter: well, i think the arms deal seems like a foregone

conclusion at this stage. the fact that for the first time in four years kim jong-un leaving his country, taking the famous armored train on this slow journey out of north korea into russia, where he will be having a state visit with all of the honors, including a bilateral lunch with vladimir putin tomorrow, according to russian media. it seems like they're going to sign or at least make some sort of verbal agreement in which north korea sends vladimir putin lots of ammunition, artillery and rockets, in exchange, receives food aid, closer military coordination, military support, for north korea's more advanced weapons systems, so it's really a win-win for russia and certainly for north korea, which is so sanctioned, so isolated, now he finally is able

to emerge from his sort of cage that has been built around north korea and prove himself to be immensely useful for russia and he's not doing this alone. he's doing this, it seems, with the approval of china because both chinese and russian officials were in pyongyang in july discussing this trip, discussing this arms deal. >> richard engel, thank you. donald trump's attorneys launching a legal blitz. the next in the former president's fight to escape his election interference cases. you're watching "chris jansing reports" only on msnbc. s" only c

analyst. this is an attempt to get charges dismissed. what are the chances he succeeds and could it give us clues about the defense the trump team is trying to build? >> i don't think so. it's unlikely to succeed and unlikely to be insightful. i think wear going to see an endless ba a raj of motions to dismiss or delay the case and this is one of those. this argument that it should be dismissed under the supremacy clause because trump was engaging in the duties of his job, has already really failed in the mark meadows motion with his failure of removal to federal court. he was not exercising his duties as the president. he was acting as a political campaigner. he was trying to interfere in a state function and i think for that reason, that motion to dismiss is likely to fail. same with the motion to recuse judge chutkan. it's likely to fail, but again,

gives him some delay and if and when he is ultimately convicted he can point to the motion and say i told you way back when i couldn't get a fair trial in the court. i think we should expect more and i don't think these are likely to succeed. >> the only person who will rule on the matter of removing judge chutkan is judge chutkan herself. i want to ask you about the language used by trump's lawyers. in the legal filing trump's attorneys write although judge chutkan may genuinely intend to give president trump a fair trial and believe she can do so her public statements unavoidbly taint the proceedings regardless of the outcome. that's a pretty far cry from what trump has written calling chutkan, highly partisan, very biased and unfair. what kinds of things will she be considering when she makes her decision and i think a lot of folks agree with you, that she's not likely to recuse herself, but what is she supposed to look

at? >> yeah. so the test for recusal is whether a reasonable person would fairly doubt the judge's impartiality. i think if you look at these statements she's made in court they cite as the basis for arguing she is tainted, are really just cases about the defendants who have come before her in some of the january 6th cases. they themselves have blamed donald trump and said he's the one who made me do this. the judge has said things like, look, he's not in front of me. there may be other people who motivated you to do this these but i can't make a decision about that. i can only decide about you. they're tangentially related to donald trump whatsoever and i don't think it's going to meet that standard about a whether a reasonable person would believe her to be unable to to be fair in this case. >> while trump's eligibilitiby to on the ballot is being challenged the election officers in those states want no part in deciding whether the insurrection clause in the 14th

amendment applies. they want the courts to decide that matter. what happens next? >> i don't know. there is a lawsuit proceeding in colorado and we will get, perhaps, a judgment there that maybe about whether for other states and other places to decide whether this is something they want to follow. i think the text of the constitution is pretty clear that someone who is engaged in insurrection can't hold office in the future, but i also think this would be a huge step for our democracy and i think it's one that a lot of election officials aren't ready to take. they want to have open elections. they want to advance democracy and give voters their choice at the ballots. i don't know that we're going to see donald trump removed from the ballot based on 149th amendment. >> barbara mcquade. thank you so much. meanwhile in new york, the judge who is assigned to trump's hush money case is apparently open to changing the trial schedule with many other cases set to play out in court next year. that trial was scheduled for march 25th.

now, the judge has put off a hearing until february to decide whether it makes sense to move the date. trump has pleaded not guilty to nearly three dozen felony counts of falsifying business records related to a $130,000 payment made to adult film star stormy daniels in the final days of the 2016 campaign. across the boarder and into the wind, the growing fallout for the department of homeland security after their internal watchdog revealed the agency lost track of 177,000 migrants inside the u.s. and ahead in our next hour, the fda says some of the most popular cold medicines might not work. what that could mean for you the next time you're under the weather. you're watching "chris jansing reports" only on msnbc. jansing reports" only on msnbc ver. it changes how you eat, how you feel, and how you enjoy life. it changes your smile

either didn't fill it out correctly or the migrant gave false information. they found in more than 50 incidents they would have the same address for locations like a restaurant in new york or a church in illinois. they would see the same location show up 50 times in a six-month period. for 177,000 migrants and more than that, in a 17-month period, in which a million migrants were released into the united states. those migrants don't have legitimate addresses. not only can dhs not track the migrants as they await immigration hearings. that means the immigrants themselves can't get information that might be telling them their immigration case has changed the a different location or changed the date. if they don't show up, they can be exported from the united states. it's information to gather and it can be hard. it's really on the immigrant to provide this information because

the immigrant to say where in the united states they are going. but for many people, that can change or may not know when they're at the border. >> is there anything to track down these folks and get the addresses on file or get the cases in the courts? >> the immigrants can go in and update addresses with files. that's something they can do at an i.c.e. office. and dhs sent out a response saying the immigration system is broken and outdated and congress needs to fix it. saying individuals need to come to the united states, those that do come to the united states, are screened by dhs and our counterterror partners. that's important to point out. all of the 177,000 have been vetted. they were not deemed to be a threat. those people would be detained and departed. these people were released to pursue immigration claims. there's a number of people that

aren't released with court dates. they might have a notice to appear at an i.c.e. office and get the court date at a later time. it's a confusing system. confusing for both sides. >> thank you. the host for infro wars has found to help inspire the mob by spreading baseless claims on his show and later with a megaphone outside of the capitol that day. he prosecutors say he led a march to the building and led ray rioters in chants. he's one of the few people charged in the riot that did not go inside the building. an american cave expert has
