a big crowd. >> can i just say, this is my kind of crowd. a crowd of young girls, their moms and a bunch of other people some of whom spent the night overnight but they're ready for fifth harmony -- around so am i! >> that's in our 8:30 half-hour. but let's start on a friday morning with history being made in south carolina this morning. for the first time in more than half a century, the confederate flag will be removed from the state capitol grounds. and with a big crowd expected security is very tight. we'll talk exclusively to the state's governor nikki haley in just a employment. but first, "today" national correspondent craig melvin has the latest. craig, good morning to you. >> reporter: matt good morning. that history that you just mentioned will be made about three hours from now behind me and for all of us who have grown up in the shadow of this confederate battle flag here in colombia it will be an emotional day after more than 50 years, the flag will-taken down in a short and solemn ceremony. this morning for the first time

in more than 50 years, the confederate battle flag will no longer fly at south carolina's state capitol. >> i am surrounded by members of the emanuel nine family. >> reporter: governor haley acknowledged the nine killed in charleston three weeks ago using a separate pen for each victim. >> the history of the action that took place by everyone in south carolina to get us to this moment is one that we can all be proud of. >> reporter: the church killings sparked a nationwide debate about the confederate flag. sock arguing it represents south carolina's heritage. >> whether it's right or whether it's wrong, it is a part of american history. >> reporter: others that it is a painful reminder of slavery and racism. the heated controversy not letting up on social media. taking down the confederate flag is almost taken do you go a part of american history. it is not a flag of racism it is a flag of culture. another posting, now your entire state can unite and heal under one flag. the american flag.

formal come graham whose sister cynthia hurd was killed at the church removing the flag is bittersweet bittersweet. >> we're glad that the flag is coming down but we still are heartbroken by the loss of our sister and the eight others. >> reporter: state representative jenny horn a descendant of confederate president jefferson davis -- >> i'm very proud. i'm proud of my state. i'm proud of this body. and i'm proud of the governor. >> reporter: the flag itself will be taken down by a department of public safety honor guard, the same honor guard that was used at the funeral of south carolina state senator clementa pinckney 1 of the 9 folks gunned down in that church basement in charleston more than three weeks ago. matt? >> craig melvin thank you very much. south carolina's governor nikki haley is with us now exclusively. governor haley, good morning, thanks for being with us. >> good morning, matt. it is a great day in south carolina.

>> well let's talk about it. the events of yesterday and today would have seemed unthinkable five weeks ago in your state. so let's start this morning by just tell me about your emotions this morning. personally. >> you know i'm proud. i'm proud of the people of south carolina that came together after a terrible tragedy. i think about the emanuel 9. i think about cynthia hurd whose life motto was be kinder than necessary. i think about twanza sanders whose last words before he stood in front of his aunt susie said we mean no harm to you. you don't need to do this. sharonda left three children of her own. i'm thinking of those nine people today. >> you've talked about them and their grace and the forgiveness of their family members and you said that they started action all around this country. they made us think not of our

differences but what our similarities are and yet there are still differences, governor. as that flag comes down today in your state, you know there are going to be an awful lot of people who are going to see it as a defeat they're going to be angry and they're going to think it is a piece of their heritage that is coming down. what do you say to those people this morning? >> i think we've gone through that debate. what we've said is that in south carolina we honor tradition. we honor history. we hon more heritage. but there is a place for that flag and that flag needs to be in a museum where we will continue to make sure people can honor it appropriately. but the state house is an area that belongs to everyone and no one should ever drive by the state house and feel pain. no one should ever drive by the state house and feel like they don't belong. so i think this is a hopeful day for south carolina. i think it is a day that we can all say that we have come together as a state. i think you can look at the way south carolina responded to this tragedy, and i think we can all say that hopefully the emanuel nine are looking down at feeling proud today. >> you have faced relentless

criticism over the last four or five weeks, governor. there are people who have brought up your indian heritage they've called you an outsider they're promised political retribution. some have even promised personal retribution. as a result of the events of the last couple of weeks, are are you concerned for your personal safety? >> no. you know i have faith. i will tell you that ethyl lance used to sing a song and the song would be basically said "one day sweet jesus. that's all i'm asking of you. give me the strength to do every day what i have to do." that's all i've thought about every day. and we've gotten through a tough time in south carolina. we're still grieving. it is going to be a while before the healing really starts to begin. but after the emotions come down after everybody looks back they're going to look back to the fact that nine people accepted someone into a church that didn't look like them didn't sound like them and prayed with him for an hour.

the love and the faith and the acceptance taught the entire state and country what love looks like. and those families taught us what forgiveness looks like. they've given us a path for the children as we go forward. >> governor a lot of people have commented on the way you've handled these events and handled yourself over these last several weeks. mitt romney tweeted yesterday, "congratulations to nikki haley for real and symbolic leadership." from philip rucker -- the signing ceremony yesterday. if jeb bush was watching tv just now, i wonder if he was just thinking i've just found my vp. big moment for nikki haley. do you think this two-week period or three-week period has launched you into a different orbit in terms of national politics? >> you know if i did my job right and that means i need to work harder, the people will talk about the lives of those nine people. what they taught south carolina. what they taught the country. what their families taught us and how the people of south

carolina responded should show our country we can do this. we can do this and we can continue to move forward as a country in a way that unifies people and that shows what real love looks like. that's what i want people to get out of this. i don't want this to go away quickly. i want people to remember what today feels like and know that anything is possible. so i'll keep my focus on that. >> south carolina governor nikki haley, governor thanks for your time this morning. we'll be watching today. >> thank you, matt. meantime federal officials sounded the alarm ahead of the holiday weekend. now we're learning about just how close we came to potential terror attacks. more than ten arrests in the past month alone. sean henry, is former assistant executive director of the fbi now president of crowd strike services. sean good morning. nice to have you in the studio with us. lots of people were enjoying barbecues and just enjoying the fourth. can you quantify? how close were we to a potential terrorist attack? >> we know there are people here in the united states looking to

harm americans. listening to this jihadi rhetoric constantly barraged through social media of chants of attack america no matter where you are. i think the fbi recognizes they can't allow that to happen and they went out and caught some of these disruptions where they were able to actually go out and pull people off the street who may have been planning to attack. >> the fundamental differences between al qaeda and isis and isis related people they've arrested, what can you tell us about their motives that makes those two groups different. >> al qaeda looks to bigger attacks, like 9/11. the concern law enforcement has now with isis is this social media. people are reaching out from across the sea into people's living rooms through twitter and through facebook and they're causing them to rat callize, they're helping them and conditioning them to launch these attacks. >> the fbi director called it like the devil on your shoulder.

you can speak on this because you worked in cyber security -- we've had 21 million people who were hacked in the government. when you heard those sheer numbers, what sounds so large, were you surprised by that? >> it's not even just the numbers. it is actually just the type of information that was stolen. we're talking about people's mental health records. most sensitive data that people applying for government positions provide to get background checks done. this type of information in the hands of a foreign adversary is a coup intelligence wise. >> can the u.s. do anything to stop this now? >> from an intelligence perspective there's not a lot. once that information's gone the horse is out of the barn you're not going to do anything to repair that. what the government needs to do is actually have conversations with those who may have stolen it and define what the red lines are, what's appropriate and what's not. clearly in this case -- inappropriate. >> sean henry, thanks for your expertise. now to politics. a rare joint appearance is drawing a lot of attention this morning. former presidents bill clinton and george w. bush sharing a

stage while their loved ones are out there competing in the presidential race. nbc white house correspondent kristin welker has more on that. hi kristin, good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you, matt. that's right, former presidents bill clinton and george w. bush have always been a political odd couple of sorts, and they came together again thursday night in texas for the first graduation of their joint presidential leadership program but with their loved ones locked in a heated battle for the race for the white house, this lating meeting between 42 and 43 took on a whole new meaning. appearing together in dallas you'd never know former presidents george w. bush and bill clinton had a horse in the 2016 race. instead, it was more palling around than political, trading stories about their grandkids. >> when i walked into her room she said oh there's your grand did. and she turned around and pointed at me. >> last night my granddaughter spoke to me in mandarin. >> and joking about their age. >> clinton and i are getting a little long in the tooth these

days. >> this is the one month of the year when he's older than me. so speak for yourself. >> reporter: but the camaraderie between the democrat and republican commanders in chief comes as rhetoric heats up between their families hillary clinton and jeb bush trading barbs over immigration this week. >> as i said they're on a spectrum of hostility which i think is really regrettable in a nation of immigrants like ours. >> my record as it relates to immigrants is pretty clear. there's no hostility at all. >> reporter: will 2016 tax the relationship of these one-time political rivals-turned-friends? near 42 nor 43 has been a presence on the campaign trail and president bush indicated he plans to keep it that way. >> i know jeb and i'm confident secretary hillary will elevate the discourse. i'm not going to be a surrogate.

>> reporter: aides say president clinton will dive in but not for a while. >> i like to win. but the more important thing for america is that we know what the heck we're deciding on and we make a pretty good decision. >> reporter: now both former leaders tried to keep the focus on bipartisanship even touting the decision to lower the confederate flag in south carolina. former president clinton suggesting it's an indication that washington should also be able to work across the lines of divide. back to you. >> kristin welker at the white house, thanks very much. >> fun watching them like that. isn't it? >> natalie is here with another road block in the iran nuclear talks. good morning again. iran is accusing the six world powers of backtracking on commitment after another deadline to reach a nuclear agreement expired with no deal. iran says the world powers are changing their conditions and using pressure tactics. the comments follow a u.s. warning that it is ready to walk away from the talks. the obama administration hoped to have a final deal to submit

to congress yesterday. the deadline imposed by legislation. an update on a story we first told you about on wednesday after tom selleck reached a tentative deal with the california water district that accused him of illegally moving water. breaking rules taking water from a hydrant in one district and moving it to selleck's home in another district. selleck's representative could not be reached for comment. now to that video that we showed you there at the top of the show. an arkansas woman and her baby escaped their home just before a frightening explosion caught on camera. texarkana firefighters were entering the home late wednesday night when a backdraft blew the insulation from the house. thankfully the two firefighters were not injured in the blast. investigators are calling the fire suspicious because there was no electric or gas connected to the house. and a terrifying moment on an amusement park ride before

the ride even started. it happened on the catapult ride in wisconsin dells just seconds before the ride was supposed to launched a woman and a child into the air. one of the bungee cords snapped. the impact left a hole in the asphalt. thankfully no one was injured but a very close call for that woman and her child. scary moment for them no doubt. frightening! good thing it hadn't gotten into the air. >> right. dylan's here. you're talking about a tornado in pennsylvania? >> there is a possible tornado in pennsylvania. crews will go out today to assess the damage. there really wasn't much damage in the area besides this school. look at this school. this is blue mountain adventis elementary in washington township. we hear there was only one person inside during the tornado but that person was not injured. he got out safely but that area certainly dealing with some severe storms. this happened around 6:45

his cell phone in a fake electrical outlet. wednesday's smartphone swipe isn't the first time the actress has made headlines because of a crowd behaving badly. six years ago she stopped the show after someone was taking photos after her performance in "gypsy." >> stop taking pictures right now! you heard the announcement! how do you think you are? >> reporter: growing tired of holding the phone, now seriously questioned if this performance should be her last act. >> it isn't changing. it is only getting worst. it's stressful. it's incredibly stressful. >> her response started quite the conversation online. she has been a hot trepid on facebook and twitter. other broadway performers started speaking out in support. "here is a fact -- i have never performed in a broadway play from start to finish without

hearing a phone ring. not once." so the moment of truth. we all hear those announcements to shut off our phones before a live show. do we actually do it? we asked on today.com how you set your ringers. 50% say they put it on silent. 30% power it off completely. 19% put it on vibrate. look at this -- 1% loud and proud? what do you do? >> that's dylan. turn that off. >> sounds like a flip phone ring. >> i do vibrate. >> because in a very quiet show you can actually hear the vibration. you can. >> i never trust the alarms and everything else. it's just off. >> to weigh in here do you think patti lupone did the right thing? >> i think it is good she spoke out but her way of doing it. >> she went out into the crowd, it sounded like it was part of

the act so it didn't ruin the experience for everyone else. i think okay. >> i can't imagine what she must be going through to actually see it and can't -- >> good for her. coming up fifth harmony live in concert. we have a trivia question for all you harmonizers. which pop start wrote the group's hit "sledgehammer." ariana grande meghan trainor or demi lovato. if you have moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. isn't it time to let the real you shine through? introducing otezla apremilast. otezla is not an injection or a cream. it's a pill that treats plaque psoriasis differently. some people who took otezla saw 75% clearer skin after 4 months. and otezla's prescribing information has no requirement for routine lab monitoring. don't take otezla if you are allergic

bill thursday to remove the controversial flag after nine people were massacred in charleston three weeks ago. the accused mun gan embraced the flag as a symbol of white supremacy. it's long been a source of friction between those who regard it as a symbol of southern heritage and those who regard it as a symbol of slavery and racism. earlier this morning, governor haley told removing the flag and placing it in a museum does not mean south carolina is turning its back on its heritage. >> there is a place for that flag in a museum where we will continue to make sure people can honor it appropriately. but the state house is an area that belongs to everyone and no one should ever drive by the state house and feel pained. no one should ever drive by the state house and feel like they don't belong. >> governor haley also said that because of her faith she is not afraid of threats made against her over the flag controversy. football fans are remembering quarterback ken stabler, one of the sport's biggest stars of the 1970s. he led the oakland raiders to a

super bowl victory in 1977. in 1974 he was the league's most valuable player. stabler died wednesday from colon cancer. his family says he spent his final moments surrounded by loved ones while listening to his favorite music from van morrison and lynyrd skynyrd. he was 69 years old. skoo keepers say they are confident they'll recapture a monkey that escaped thursday from the memphis zoo. the monkey was caught on camera bolting across the lawn. visitors were escorted indoors for safety. he last seen climbing into a storm drain, will come out when she's hungry. the pope just spent a half-hour waving to the crowd in bolivia along his motorcade then then needed to get ready to celebrate mass. a restaurant obliged and covered his windows with white curtains to give the pope some privacy. you're up to date right now.

back over to matt. if you're among the millions of people who take painkillers, listen up. the food and drug administration is strengthening its warnings about certain ones like ibuprofen saying that they raise the risk of heart attack and stroke. our today contributor and associate professor of medicine at new york university langone medical center what's the big deal here? >> the big deal is they raised it from it may cause an increased risk of heart attack and stroke to they do cause increased risk of heart attack or stroke. nsaids and over the counter versions as well. >> how much do you have to be taking how often do you have to be taking them? >> that's the big question. they say as little as just a few weeks can cause an increased risk. they are also saying we actually don't know if there's any safe duration. even maybe a few days may cause it. . bottom line you have to be ju

disht judicious if you take these. if you have high risk factors like blood pressure, talk to your doctor. >> i go on bike rides, i come in from a run, i often come hope and take one of these. >> tylenol is safe. aspirin is take when we talk about heart attack or stroke risk. you may need to take an anti-inflammatory but do it small doses for as short a duration as possible. >> you have some really important tips. let's look at put them up. one, know the risks. read the labels carefully. >> a lot of cold medicines also contain nsaids. don't double up inadvertently. >> cold medications. take the lowest effective dose possible. >> often we possible these like candy thinking that they're totally safe. we now know that there is some risk involved. like with many over the counter drugs, there is always a risk and you have to i would risk/benefits. >> because they are over the counter so often we often think we don't need to consult a physician because, look they

sell them right there on the shelf. you want people to consult their doctors. >> 100%. just for the average person any drug you're putting into your body whether it is over the counter or not, it is a good idea to double check with your doctor. >> thank you very much. up next a new apology from pop superstar ariana grande after she apparently -- or allegedly -- licked doughnuts and then said she hates america. but jenna will take the plunge live down the world's longest inflatable water slide. and yes, we've got that concert on our plaza from fifth in just this one moment, your baby is getting even more than clean. the scent, the lather, even the tiny bubbles of a johnson's® bath are helping to enhance the experience. the touch of your hands is stimulating her senses. nurturing her mind. and helping her development. so why just clean your baby when you can give her... so much more™? johnson's®. so much more™.

all right. by the way, savannah e-mailed in on this one. she's with you. take your financial information out there. most people don't agree. according to a survey from mastercard 55% said they'd rather have nude photos leaked online instead of financial information. speaking of having your personal information shared on internet we have an interesting article on today.com, five things other than things like nude pictures and all that that you should never share online because if you do you could be providing crucial information to hackers. these are kind of surprising. for instance, experts say do not post the name of your favorite movie. that's because sometimes that's a common security password for people. the same thing is true for your high school mascot. third, this is probably my favorite -- don't put concert -- a picture of your concert tickets -- like i'm going to fifth harmony and you show the ticket because often there is a bar code on there. someone can blow that picture up figure out a way to lift

that bar code and that could be their ticket in. >> then you'll walk up to your seat for the concert and see the person who did that. >> who gets stamped first? go to today.com for the whole list of goodies. that's interesting. now to a photo that's inspiring comparisons to the infamous dress photo, you know black and blue or white and gold. this bottles of nail polish and a high heeled shoe. a twitter user asking which color of nail polish matches the shoe best. what do you guys think? >> i thought it was the light pink one on the right until i looked at the other one. you know what? your eye plays a tricks on here. >> dylan? >> at first i thought the purple but then i switched to pink. now i'm switching back. >> i think tls the oneit is the one on the left. >> i think it is the one on the right. if you cover it up it looks like purple. >> natalie, once you told me to

cover up the nail polish on the right, i see how it looks like purple. >> bottom line i would never match my nail polish to my shoes. >> most people online saying the one on the right. now to ariana grande's new heartfelt apology. and jennifer lawrence finally meets her big hollywood crush. >> we have a lot to talk about. here we go. we are starting with ariana grande and her new apology all stemming from this moment caught on video. ariana licking doughnuts at a california shop and saying she hates america. that incident now under investigation. ariana apologized on twitter but felt that wasn't enough so in a four-minute black and white video posted online thursday night, she tried to explain herself. >> seeing the video of yourself behaving poorly that you have no idea was taken is such a rude awakening that you don't -- like you don't know what to do. i was so disgusted with myself.

i like shoved my face into the wall and wanted to disappear. i apologize for my poor choice of words and for my behavior. being seen ugly makes you never want to behavior that way again and i'm 22 years old. i'm human. i've still got a lot to learn and i make mistakes and that's how i'm going to learn. >> there you have. it. adding that she'll use this experience to learn and grow and get better. over the last few weeks we've gotten pictures of the stars, costumes andbut never the full cast. there they are. they're filming in boston on thursday. they've been shooting for about a month and the movie hits theaters next july. >> it is going to be funny.

next? >> it is incredible to me to become a source of national discourse. >> i have to say, i think the four minute redo apology makes it worse. it was too long. it was sort of rambling. i think she meant relevant. not relative. i think that's the word she meant to use. i feel like you could have made it concise, short, redo apology may have been better. she did have a great manicure. >> i noticed that. >> impeccable. >> i will say one thing though. if any of us is judged on our very worst moment i hope that never happens to me. she shouldn't have done it. i know she apologized for it. that one moment don't know what was happening, she was out with her friends. >> i did feel bad for her. she said to see yourself acting so poorly not knowing -- i do feel badly for her. i guess i can forgive her but she's got to i think live up to

better standards from now on. >> absolutely. we all do stupid things and don't have a video camera capturing them. but let's not say anything more about it. let's move on. >> amen. >> moving on. okay. so we love this story. so sweet. we're talking about presidents bragging on their grandchildren. rare joint appearance by former presidents george w. bush and bill clinton yesterday at an event for the presidential leadership scholars. former presidents have a good friendship now obviously. no politics involved there. they shared a few laughs as they spoke about their grandchildren. take a listen. >> last night my granddaughter, 9 1/2 months old, for the first time when i walked in her room she said oh there's your granddad and she turned around and pointed at me. that was worth more than anything anybody had said or done for me or paid to me or anything else. everything you said about it is

true. >> well last night my granddaughter spoke to me in mandarin. >> what? >> i love it. that's so great. of course mila is speaking mandarin. she's been -- okay what's the word for thank you and please. >> she's it? >> 2 years old. mila. >> getting an early start. >> that keeps my heart warm. that warms my heart is what i'm trying to say. >> the perfect segue. >> my older brother john and his beautiful wife ashley have a wonderful new addition to their family on tuesday. they had their third baby a baby girl. her name is madelyn lane kemper. i wanted to welcome her to the world. think we have the picture. she joins her older brother brennan -- no picture?

to 12 months. >> insurance doesn't cover the running legs so it is through a foundation that braylon is every other year able to get these amazing running legs. without these he wouldn't be able to run, hop and skip the way that he is able to on the running legs. >> he wouldn't be able to be a little boy. >> right. it would be vastly different. >> reporter: today braylon plays baseball golf and even has speaking engagements at schools. >> what's the question you get the most? >> you good at baseball? >> what do you tell them? >> what question do they ask you about your legs? >> how do you take them off. i just put this on. >> wow. it's easy. you do that all yourself in the morning? >> yep. >> no help? >> we always talk about he's special not because his legs are different but because of how he chooses to live with his life with his legs. it is really that spirit i think. at least as a mom what makes him so special to us. i think to others.

add the watermelon. we would add the orange juice, just place in an air-tight container overnight. next day looks like this. >> oh my gosh. that's beautiful. orange juice. i wouldn't have thought of that necessarily for a dressing. >> it starts the saturation process. >> you said leave it in the fridge overnight. >> yeah. sealed tight overnight. we're going to blend it next. >> if you don't have -- say it is not the season to have the fresh tomatoes you can do it year round with canned tomatoes. >> you can. you may want to adjust the seasonings so you can mask the flavor. >> you guys keep eating. >> delicious. >> little bit of salt and pepper. i guess everybody has a preference. for me i like to blend it smooth. otherwise you're eating salsa.

a nice refreshing cool smooth consistency. olive oil and vinegar. blend for a second. >> done. >> that wasn't that long. 35 seconds? >> yeah. right now it is totally emulsified. if we did everything it would be more red. if you leave it in the fridge it will separate. just shake it up real quick. i split the avocado in half take the pit out. i like to just skin it real quick like this. then you just peel the two sides off. >> i'm bad at this. >> yeah. >> i get too confident.

and just over three weeks after that deadly shooting at a black church in charleston. nbc's ron allen is down there in that crowd somewhere. ron, we were getting the aerial view. give me a sense of the size of the crowd, the security, and are there people on both sides of this issue present? >> this is an incredible moment. people are starting to chant, take it down. take it down. there are thousands upon thousands of people here on the state house grounds. and crowding the streets around the capitol. people have been coming here since early this morning to be a part of this and to witness it. we can see that honor guard is in place, a small honor guard will march out to the flag and take it down. this will be a small brief dignified, quick ceremony that's not going to last very long. also, on the steps of the capitol, question see a large contingent of relatives of those who lost loved ones so tragically at mother emanuel church a few weeks ago. this is so much about them.

i can seat governor there. i can see nicky haley shaking hands with the relatives at the top of the steps there. that is a cue this is about to begin. when the governor arrived, we were told the ceremony will begin. there is very, very heavy security here. the area is closed off for blocks. there is a ban on carrying personal weapons within 250 yards of this place as a precaution because people are concerned about the passions that are on both sides of this issue. there are protesters out for the past few days. there was an epic, epic debate in the house of representatives here that lasted for 12, 13 hours, well into the night a few days ago. debate wlg this flag should come down or not after 54 contentious years here in south carolina. and now that is going to happen in a brief, dignified ceremony that should be getting under way any moment. the governor is in place. and now the honor guard is in place. we expect this to begin any moment. >> let me interrupt for a second.

we also have chuck todd standing by in washington. as the ceremony is about to take place and grofrn hailovernor haley did spear head this effort, talk about the significance of this happening at this moment in our nation's history. >> matt, it's unbelievable. when i think about sort of my career covering presidential politics, it always goes through south carolina. this flag has been so contentious for so long. and it just seemed an intractable debate. and all of a sudden, it is not. the fact it took a tragedy to do. this you get the feeling, i feel like we're witnessing, you know, the -- we're marking the end date on the confederate battle flag as a symbol in american politics and it's today. 2015. that will be the epitaph on the confederate flag. it feels that way. the country moved on. i have to tell you, it's remarkable to watch governor haley, the two senators both

republicans lindsey graham and tim scott. this couldn't have happened in south carolina without the three of them locking arms and making it happen, staying united. to me, it's a lesson in leadership that others who are in elected office ought to watch. because the three of them pulled this off together. obviously governor haley being the leader f they don't lock arms this doesn't happen as swiftly and as momentously as it is. >> and grofrn hailovernor haley talked to us and talked about the families of those who lost their lives at that ame church and said the grace and forgiveness changed her and changed the mood in south carolina and this country and forced people to look at what we have in common, not what divides us. and, yet, chuck and ron, i'll let you chime in after. that we have to remember, there are a lot of people in south carolina who are going to watch this and for them it's a defeat. for them they see it as a losing or a loss of their heritage. and they're going to be angry about this.

>> and, matt, make no mistake, there will be some political reprecushions for state legislator, a state senator, a member of that assembly who may lose their re-election because of their vote to go with the governor on this and take down this flag. but it feels as if it's still sort of a remnant of the past. >> chuck, let's just watch this as this happens. this honor guard, i think ron mentioned earlier, the same honor guard that served at the state funeral in south carolina for state senator and reverend clemente klem en clemente pinckney.

let's watch. >> you can hear chants in the background continuing, take it down. we were told this would be simple and dignified, lasting five minutes or ten minutes. once the flag is taken down, it will be handed over to the man who runs the relic room at the confederate museum about a mile away from the state capitol there in columbia, south carolina. we're told it will be displayed appropriately. not really sure exactly what that means. and i would expect you'll hear a cheer as this flag starts to

come down. >> ron allen, can you hear me? >> yes. >> give me a sense for what you're seeing and hearing. >> i hear a lot of emotion. i see a lot of teary eyes. i see a lot of people straining to take never second of this moment. i see a lot of relief.

i see some anger. i see some small confederate flags in the crowd. and i've heard those voesices so loudly. this is a memorial to tens of thousands of young men and women that gave money for a cause they were fighting, the civil war. and those don't care if this is wrong or right. they want their ancestors honored. the flag on that pole sits in front of a confederate soldier memorial. it's one of the largest memorials on the state house grounds. it is prominently in the front. as you drive by the capitol, that is the first thing you see. the flag, of course, is not there any longer. but others point out that that is enough of a monument along with many others here to hohn yort memory of those soldiers. fwhut is but this is a moment in is being sthak is reallyate that is trying

to move on. walmart, ebay, sears came out and said they will no longer deal with confederate memorabilia. there is a ban by the ncaa of having championship sports, college sports here in south carolina because of the flag. and that has now been lifted. the debate in the house the other night, a lot of representatives emphasized the economic impact that this flag being here has had on south carolina and the hope that that will now change. again, burst of applause. people yelling, take it down. the hope here is that this will move -- this will help this place move on. and what i really see, matt, what i'm focusing on, is the faces of the loved ones who lost at mother emanuel church. there is a large contingent here. i also see the pastor of that church reverend goff who presided over nine separate funerals in the past couple weeks. we went to manufacture the funerals.

they were emotional. they were gut wrenching. they were also inspiring because of the forgiveness and the grace that these families have shown throughout this as we can now see the flag being marched across the state house grounds. but i see a lot of tears in the eyes of those families. i see a measure of relief. i see also -- and i heard them talk about how bittersweet this is. because it took the lives of their loved ones to make this happen. and those nine were innocent and ordinary people. a librarian, a track coach, a young man who just finished college, and who was dreaming of being a barber, entrepreneur, mothers, fathers, grand fathers, the oldest, 74. the youngest 26. >> ron, let me jump in for a second. we're watching that flag being handed over to the director of the south carolina confederate relic room and military museum. and it will then go off to that

museum to be displayed or stored from now on. not to be flown at the state capitol again. and, chuck, to bring balk in, we saw grofrn hailovernor haley standing on the grounds. so much attention on her over the last several weeks. and so much praise, also, so much criticism. what has this done to impact her career and her political future? >> look, you can't help but say that, you know this is a case where her act as a governor in the state have gotten national attention, given her national exposure. she was a once and future rising star when she first got elected. maybe tried to be a national star too soon too, quickly in that first term. sort of put her focus on the state and now she met the moment. >> matt, we see this all the time in politics. you meet a moment. it's an unexpected moment. how do you handle that moment? and i think that it's pretty clear nicky haley handled this as well as any governor could handle. you can say she was late to the game.

that criticism is there. she's accepted that criticism. but again, without her, lindsey graham and tim scott locking arms on this i don't know if that south carolina republican-controlled legislature does this. they pulled this off. >> chuck, thank you very much. ron allen on the grounds of the state house there in columbia. thank you for your insight as well. so in a simple and dignified ceremony, history made this morning in south carolina. the confederate flag removed from the grounds of the capitol in columbia. something so many people had wanted to see happen for decades. but also something fairly that so many others have resisted for that same period of time. it remains to be seen whether the removal of that flag does what members of the south carolina legislature hope it will do, usher in a new era for the state and perhaps even usher in a new era of unity and racial harmony in this country. we'll have to wait and see. >> there will be a lot of talk after that, i'm sure. all right.

we're going to turn now to natalie? >> actually, we'll have much more on this event throughout the day on might bensnb about. we talk about results and performance, we don't talk about these things. >> so clothing is important what's a turnoff? >> when you are provocative or wrinkle wrinkled you're saengd message you never left the house. you're saying i'm at home, many i head isn't here. i always tell people be more toned down, a little more dressed up than you'd like to be because there's a line between work and home. >> and a pushup bra is not a good idea for certain careers. >> and if you're not sure look at a female who's succeeded and mirror a bit of what -- >> yes, dress for the next job. that's an oldie but goody. >> grooming. >> that's a huge one. >> it's fine to have tattoos and

a big beard and wear make if you please your boss is doing it. and this is individualism. people sometimes want to let -- you know that old song "let your freak flag fly." it's fine to be an individual as long as you're at a company where that's celebrated. but if you're the only one that way, understand it could be a career blocker for you unless your performance is spectacular then things are forgiven. this wasn't a huge one in terms of numbers. there were ones that came in bigger but you have to be careful. >> this is something you ought to be aware of. smell. >> these are two things bad breath and heavy perfumes, this makes it hard for people to be in the room with you. you do a lot of stuff at work in the room making it very hard. one of the reasons why people don't know about, this it's hard to talk about it. have you ever tried to tell someone they have bad breath? >> i usually offer them a mint. >> but they don't hear it. so listen for that. understand you're working closely with people and this goes on you have to be listening for signals. people try to tell you in subtle ways. >> so this could stop you from

getting a pro ocean? >> 22%. it was a problem. not as big as others but you want to be aware of this. >> this doesn't have body odor on it, that's the whole other thing, too. >> that's another thing, too. that's very hard to talk about with bosses. >> somebody's attitude. >> this is the biggie. this is the biggie. 62% of the bosses said they'd be less likely to promote you with two attitudes that are really contagious. when you're overly negative, who are you negative about? they start talking about the company or the customers. that's when they're gossiping. if you're snarking. try to go to work for two days and not be negative and not gossip and see how hard it is for you. realize how much you do this. if it undermines productivity and cream work and creativity. try not doing it for two days. >> this is interesting. people who waste time time management. >> this is another biggie, 62%.

>> terribly rude. >> and it sends two big messages to your co-workers one is my head is not in the game work is not a priority or i don't have my life together. >> or my time is more valuable than yours. >> exactly. and these are not good messages to send and this really really can hold you back! leaving early. people leave early for school events. personal calls and smoke breaks. >> look, if your performance is spectacular, as i said before it's less important but if you're just sort of showing up and this is what's going on, you're sending bad messages. >> so forget about a promotion, you should be hoping to hold on your-to-your job. >> and communication, how you communicate. >> once again these send a message i have no self-control vulgar language. you're always on if orfacebook or twitter, always on the phone with your boyfriend. this shows lack of self-control. >> you have to think about yourself. a lot of us might look at that and say "i do those things but" and then you make excuses for

it. >> suzy thank you as always. i told you it would be good information. time to bring your bat wings for a good cause. we'll get those arms in shape for that summer. >> i have a bad neck. >> i don't like her. hi i'm andy allen, and i've partnered with visa checkout and williams-sonoma to save you time to throw the perfect east coast clambake. with visa checkout you can get what you need online in fewer clicks so that you can spend less time stressing and more time sipping rosé with your friends. i'll guide you along the way making sure you get everything just right, from decor, to food, to that elusive bottle of rosé. watch the savor the summer series for party planning tips. and save even more time with visa checkout. the easier way to pay online.
