customers getting into fistfights. tensions sky-high. what the heck is going on up there? this morning, our candid conversation with flight attendants as the summer travel season kicks off. and miley mania. a huge crowd is here for one of the biggest superstars in the world. miley cyrus has made her way from "malibu" to manhattan for a live concert today, friday, may 26th, 2017. >> from nbc news, this is "today," with matt lauer and savannah guthrie. live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. and good morning, everybody. welcome to "today" on a friday morning. going to say right off the bat, if you have to be at work near rockefeller center, we're sorry. >> we may have caused a bit of a traffic jam because of that woman right there.

our plaza is filled to capacity. an overflow crowd and maybe a little bit of traffic. >> we're going to have a great concert coming up later in the show. let's start with politics and the overnight results in a closely-watched race in montana. an unexpected turn in the final hours. greg gianforte won a seat in the house, a day after he was charged with assaulting a reporter. and during his victory speech, he apologized for his actions. >> reporter: good morning, matt and savannah. prior to last night, gianforte's only public comment was a statement issued by his campaign, where they blame the bizarre incident on the reporter. late last night, just minutes after the race was called in his favor, gianforte took a very different tone. >> i'm not proud of what happened. i should not have responded in the way that i did.

and for that, i'm sorry. >> and you're forgiven. >> reporter: a contrite gianforte, offering a public apology for the incident that threatened to derail his campaign in the 11th hour. >> i should not have treated that reporter that way. and for that, i'm sorry, mr. ben jacobs. >> reporter: the hotly contested campaign between gene fianforte rob quist, landed the candidate in hot water. >> i tried to follow up one more time. next thing, i went from vertical to horizontal. >> i'm sick and tired of you guys. the last time you came here, you did the same thing. get the hell out of here. >> reporter: gianforte's campaign offered a different version of the altercation saying, it's unfortunate that this aggressive behavior from a

liberal journalist was seen. after he was charged with assault, speaker paul ryan said gianforte should apologize but he would be welcome at the capitol. the alteration changed some perception of the candidate. but in the end, his supporters rallied behind him. his campaign taking in $100,000 the day after the incident. the earliest gianforte could be sworn in is june 6th when they come back from recess. he has to take care of business here in first. he has to appear in court on that assault charge. >> garrett, thank you very much. that montana win is a win for the white house. but this morning, there's turmoil facing the trump administration. the president's son-in-law a ensenieand senior adviser is under scrutiny

in the russia investigation. we start with peter alexander. >> reporter: jared kushner may be the closest adviser to the president, making him one of the most powerful people in this country. now, the fbi is taking a closer look at kushner in its russia inquiry. that means the investigation now reaches right next to the president. this morning, the fbi's russia probe's expanding into the west wing. jared kushner senior adviser and son-in-law to president trump, now under fbi scrutiny. multiple officials tell nbc news they believe kushner has significant information relevant to her russian inquiry. he's the only current white house official that's known to be under scrutiny in the probe. the fbi is investigating whether trump campaign associates coordinated with russia to interfere in the 2016 election. but it's unclear precisely what about kushner's activities has drawn the fbi's interest. during the trump transition,

kushner met with sergey kislyak. he had a separate meeting with a russian banker. gorkov owns a development bank that's been under u.s. sanctions since 2014. although investigators are looking at kushner, they don't suspect him of a crime or intend to charge him. in a statement, they tell nbc news, mr. kushner previously volunteered to share with congress what he knows ant these meets. he will do the same in connection with any other inquiry. >> jared is a successful man in new york. >> reporter: putting the russian probe inside the white house and inside the president's family circle. spoke to several white house officials overnight. right now, the white house is not commenting. instead, redirecting us to that statement from jared kushner's lawyer. to be clear, u.s. officials say that kushner is not a target of the investigation. he's not accused of wrongdoing.

he's in a different category than the former campaign aides, paul manafort and michael flynn, who was national security adviser before being ousted. both men are considered subjects of the investigation. matt and savannah? >> peter alexander, thank you. ari melber, good morning to you. to your trained legal ear, you hear suspect of a investigation target. to say under scrutiny is a vague term. what does it mean? >> it can be vague. it doesn't mean that authorities want to charge this person. it means this person has significant information about the issues under inquiry. >> he's volunteered to talk to congress about anything he knows. apparently he will do the same with the fbi. if you're jared kushner, how does finding out about this change your day-to-day life? and if you're the president and he is your trusted adviser, how does it impact your daily interactions with him? >> it's not good for the white house because they have repeatedly said that there is no there there.

the president challenging the entire legitimacy of this inquiry. this is an independent group of fact-finders. saying there's something they want to talk to him about. his lawyer put out a statement saying they haven't been contacted yet. that's the implication. but day-to-day, he has to think about his role and anything involving russia. >> can the president share any information with him during this period? or does he have to be careful? >> they are witnesses and maybe more to a whole set of potential activities. whether that includes diplomacy, which is perfectly legal. or includes questions around current or former aides did anything financially questionable or otherwise. they have to be extra careful. they have to keep running the country at the same time. ultimately, this is a white house that has tried to sweep this under the rug. this news suggests, this story is alive. >> and the fbi is looking closely. ari, thank you very much. as for the president, he's on the final leg of his first overseas trip.

the g7 in sicily. he enters it off of fresh confrontations of a nato meeting with some of the leaders he is facing today. kristen welker is traveling with the president. good morning to you. >> reporter: this morning, president trump in diplomatic damage control. as the g7 summit gets under way. the president's facing fallout from thursday's nato summit. this morning, "der spiegel" reporting that the president slashed out saying, the germans are bad, very bad. look at the millions of cars they are selling in the u.s., terrible, according to participants there. this morning, president trump, standing next to the german leader, during the group photo, as the white house weighed in. not confirming the language cited in the report but acknowledging to nbc news, the president voiced his frustration that germany is taking advantage of the u.s. still this morning, the president of the european union commission saying the story isn't true.

and president trump ignoring a question about it. but it wasn't just those sharp words. the president's actions were also on center stage. a long hand shake with the newly effected french president. and then this, the push scene around the world. when trump appeared to push the newest leader. a washington official saying the president uwas moving to his assigned spot. and mr. trump raised eyebrows by scolding the nato leaders. 5 of 28 meeting their financial requirements. >> this is not fair to the people and taxpayers of the united states. >> reporter: and the president's top economic adviser stressing this morning the president doesn't have a problem with germany. but rather, how the country has handled trade. trade will be at the top of the agenda today, as well as defense. and climate with the president weighing whether to pull out of the international paris climate agreement, a move that would be

highly controversial. matt? savannah? >> kristen welker with the president. thanks. breaking news out of egypt this morning. officials say at least 24 people were killed and 27 others wounded after gunmen opened fire on a bus carrying christians. this happened as the bus was traveling to a monetary. nobody has claimed responsibility for in a attack. there's developments in the attack of a pop cancer in manchester, england. we're seeing new video of the suspected bomber. bill neely has more from manchester. bill, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, matt. one more arrest here this morning. the police are calling them all significant. and the police have resumed intelligence cooperation with u.s. intelligence agencies after that row over leaked photographs. the emotions here, still very raw. and the fears here, still very real.
