time magazine called chris van hollen "a hero to environmentalists, education groups, and gun control advocates" for his accomplishments as a young legislator. now a respected leader in congress and key ally of president obama, protecting planned parenthood and social security... chris van hollen is the only candidate who fought the wall street banks and the nra...and won. that's why he's endorsed by the post as the "talented successor" to senator mikulski who will "deliver results." i'm chris van hollen, and i approve this message.

a big welcome at dulles airport today as the first flight from brussels arrived in our region following those terror attacks last month. fire trucks shot a water plume over the plane as it pulled into the gate and the ground crew waved flags. passengers tell us it was a great flight but that things were very different at the airport in brussels. >> they did a remarkable job of keeping us away from any of the areas that -- or anything that we've seen in the news so far. it felt empty actually. the airport just felt empty, but it was early in the morning. >> the welcome was emotional a little bit, yeah. i mean, everyone is shocked still in belgium about what happened, so you can imagine it's nice when you feel other people's kind of affection. >> reporter: tears in my eyes. i don't know if my makeup is still there, but i know it was very emotional thinking of after so many

he wants to nearly double the armed security teams at airports, train stations, and other transportation hubs and step up efforts in unsecured areas, including check-in, bag claim and freight dough poe. >> we have three proposals here, dogs, active shooters, perimeters. weigh tonight strengthen all three. >> reporter: neffenger looked to assure lawmakers citing major changes in the culture and practices at tsa saying the agency has retrained every employee and greatly reduced vulnerability. but with terrorists constantly searching for a flaw in that system, he's not opposed to adding more man and firepower. >> i think that if you're asking an operator if he would put more resources to use, yes, i would. >> reporter: vital resources everyone hopes we'll never have to use. jay gray, nbc news. today officials in boston outlined their tight

that was. temperature is dropping right on through the 50s. 52 by 9:00. 51 by 11:00, but last night at 11:00 many of you were already below freezing. that will not happen tonight. we are not going to see a cold night at all and the temperatures really won't go down all that much. 55 in manassas. dulles had a record low of 24 this morning. nothing on the radar now but just off to the west we are tracking not only the clouds but the rain moving our way. a couple storm systems coming together and all of this rain will move in during the day tomorrow and really most of it during the morning hours. so play ball as we take on the marlins down there at nats park. looking pretty good for the forecast for the most part. again, pack the ponchos. this is the game time temperatures here. 64 degrees at 4:05. a shower chance, yes, but then clearing and looking much better. seventh inning, 60. 57 by the last out. it will be a little on the cool side so take the jacket. the poncho and jacket

64 tomorrow and then we get cold. 54 on friday. 48 on saturday. a chance of rain or snow possible. very light chance. these are just showers that will come through. i'm not expecting much. sunday morning going for a record low of 29. another extremely cold morning. that coming up on sunday. monday, tuesday, and wednesday a little bit warmer. 68 degrees. at least that's nice for monday. >> we'll take it. thank you, doug. we have sports coming up. rg3 new team, new attitude. jason is going to tell us all about it. first a look ahead on "nbc nightly news." hi, jim and doreen. ahead for us tonight, did wisconsin just become a turning point in the race for president? we break down the delegate math for you. the head of the tsa is called on the carpet over better protecting u.s. airports. and what if labels told you exactly how much effort running and walking it would take to burn off calori

this is the xfinity sports desk brought to you by xfinity, your home for the most live sports. when i get up this morning, i read that a friend of jason's got this big chip on his shoulder, he says. not going to go away. >> a friend of mine. >> i like robert griffin iii. >> so do i. >> we're all wishing him the best. >> 24 different starting quarterbacks in cleveland since 1999.

>> who is counting. today robert griffin iii did hold his first press conference as a member of the browns and during his 17-minute session with the media, grichen talked about everything from his health to what he learned about himself after being demoted by the redskins last season. here is what griffin had to say when asked if he's been humbled by everything that's taken place. >> if you say you're humble then you're not humble so i can't say that. no, i just think i'm more experienced. i'm not -- i'm still a kid. i'm 26. we're all kids. we got to play a kids' game. i've grown a lot since 2012 and just throughout the whole process of all those years there in washington. so i'm not oblivious to that fact. i know there are things i could have done differently, but today i can't focus on that. you know, i have to focus on what i'm doing with the cleveland browns. i keep saying i'm excited but everyone in the locker room is excited about the opportunity before us and what we can do for the city. >> do you feel a little extra pressure to get it right here as a quarterback? >> i mean, no pressure,

press conference. no pressure, no diamonds. got up walked off. >> do you think he will live up to -- >> i don't know how much -- >> they have joe thomas. he's okay. >> actually really good but everything else is a mess in cleveland. >> quarterback can't play a football game all by himself. >> no. >> and cleveland is a mess. >> they may have josh gordon coming back. a very good receiver. >> we wish him the best. >> we do. wroo we' >> we'll see him again when he comes to fedexfield next season. the capitals have the same problem as the golden state warriors in the nba. they're clearly the best team in their league but like the warriors the caps are chasing history. braden holtby can break the record of most wins in a season by a goaltender. holtby looked like he was going to tie that record last night. the caps jumped out to a 3-1 lead but in the third period they gave u

alex ovechkin had two goals in this game. the islanders with the victory went on to clinch a playoff berth. they take this one 4-3 in overtime. holtby may be feeling the pressure to come through with this record. the head coach said he'll be proud of his goalie either way. >> no matter what happens, his name is going to be up there with a lot of hall of fame goaltenders. so no matter what happens from now until the end of the regular season here, he's had a pretty special season. second best in nhl history. that's nothing to be disappointed on. and the wizards hosting the nets tonight. just five games remain for this group and the wiz kids would be eliminated from the playoffs if they lose tonight and detroit wins. right now they remain 3 1/2 games back of the pistons for that eighth and final playoff spot in the east, and we just learned point guard john wall, he is out for tonight's game with a sore knee. it's the first game

missed all season. moving on to baseball now. the nationals are back at it tonight in atlanta. they'll be without their starting center fielder ben revere. he's been placed on the 15-day disabled list. he injured his oblique in the first at-bat on opening day. michael taylor fills in. on the mound, stephen strasburg will get the nod. strasburg ended last season on fire, especially against atlanta. in his last three starts against the braves, he was 3-0 with a 0.00 e.r.a. in 18 innings. his last ten starts of the 2015 season, he went 6-2. e.r.a. under 2.00. a very important season for mr. strasburg. he's looking for a new contract. he's going to be a free agent after this year. it all starts tonight against the atlanta braves. i think strasburg is going to have a big, big season with the nationals this year. >> i tend to agree with you for sure. >> i would certainly hope so, and i would certainly hope to put atlanta in our back pocket. did they win two games against

>> they were 14 -- 15-4 against them last year. >> will randy whitman be back next year? >> i hope so. he's a great sound bite. >> that's the criteria, huh? "nighy news" up next.tl narrator: all that political mail might be overwhelming. let's simplify. only one candidate has been endorsed by the washington post: kathleen matthews. as a journalist and progressive leader at marriott, she has a broad and deep facility with policy. emily's list praises matthews as pro-choice and the post says on gun control, clean energy, education and health research kathleen matthews "has greater potential, following the van hollen model, to move the ball forward." kathleen: i'm kathleen matthews and i approve this message.

tonight, campaign >> tonight, campaign shake-up. trump and clinton on the ropes as cruz and sanders score decisive wins, but can the front-runners really be caught? it's getting nasty in new york. getting out alive. a frantic rescue caught on camera as wildfires explode out of control. evacuations come just in time. blood and treasure. nbc news on the isis money trail. how brutal killers are smuggling and selling some of the world's great antiquities to fund their reign of terror. burn notice. an eye-opening notice at how much time it takes to work off some of your favorite snacks. over an hour for two slices of pizza and that's just the start. and the okie from
