they accused walter ogrod of lying. that's when devlin said, walter ogrod began to sob.nfession was that the little girl showed up in his house in the afternoon, looking for her friend. he grabbed her, took her in the basement. >> according to the confession, transcribed by detective devlin. oh god lured barbara jean into the basement to play doctor. and when the little girl screamed, he hitter over the head with a weight machine pulled down bar. then he found a box outside. an expose of her body. about six hours after the interrogation began, walter ogrod signed each sheet of a 16-page statement. >> walter ogrod confession. >> and he was arrested for first degree murder, and sexual assault. >> the news came on and they were saying that they had solved barbara jean horn murder. >> i was like, oh wow. they finally caught the guy. >> heidi has known walter ogrod since they were teenagers. >> next thing i know, they're flashing a picture of walter ogrod on the screen? and he's in handcuffs. that is just not a violent person. he's like a gentle giant. he would never hurt any

when you heard walter ogrod, what were you thinking? who the hell's walter ogrod? andrea canning: coming up-- are you innocent? andrea canning: --an arrest. heartbreaking. i hated him. the only thing i could think of, was getting my hands around his throat. andrea canning: who was barbara jean's killer? tom lowenstein: they felt that barbara jean must have been killed on the block very near to where she lived. andrea canning: the search for an answer would uncover some long-buried secrets. lester holt: you're looking at the actions of the prosecutor or the police? both. the biggest part of this problem is not just innocent mistakes. the biggest part of this problem is the abuse of power. andrea canning: when "dateline" continues. - bye, bye cough. - later chest congestion. hello 12 hours of relief. 12 hours!! not coughing? hashtag still not coughing?! mucinex dm gives you 12 hours of relief from chest congestion and any type of cough, day or night. mucinex dm. it's comeback season. why just give a gift, when you can give a gift with meaning? shutterfly, make someth

we want to know, what is your favorite barbara walters interview?et us your most creative answers using the #waytooearly. we'll put the best ones up later. do you have a favorite? i caught her off guard. she said there's so many. >>> game seven after a controversial game five. can they hold on to the lead? jen, you know you have to pay attention. >>> watch this. republican candidate for governor in idaho. you need to hear his message before you go to the polls. lewis will have that. that story and a check on weather when "way too early" comes back on a friday! >>> in washington today, queen elizabeth did something that no other british ruler had been able to do, addressed a joint meeting of congress. there was a bit of humor. >> i do hope you can see me today from where you are. when it's donut friday at the office i use my citi thankyou card to get two times the points at the coffee shop. which will help me get to miami...and they'll be stuck at the cube farm. the citi thankyou preferred card. now earn two times the points on dining out with no ann

he then left walter reed, but no one knows where to.hat sound. >> it's been a very interesting journey. i learned a lot about covid. i learned it by really going to school. this is the real school. this isn't the, let's read the book school. and i get it and i understand it. and it's a very interesting thing. i'm going to be letting you know about it. in the meantime, we love the usa and we love what's happening. thank you. >> let me throw this to richard lui to clarify exactly what's going on. >> yeah, rev, we're just getting this video. we're seeing the president's motorcade leaving moments ago. as you know, we've had a couple of days of a lot of developments getting different reports from the president's doctor, in varying degrees of concern. there is also reporting coming in from mark meadows, first on background and then confirmed later on to say they were very concerned at one point for the president given the conditions. the question has been, has he taken on supplemental oxygen. but with this video just coming in moments ago, no

he's also traveled to walter reed before by car. but he will be traveling via marine one to walter reed to get some sort of advanced care from what is available at the white house. your reaction, ben? >> to echo what's been said, i worked in the white house for eight years and frankly, my doctors are the white house doctors. and i was treated in that medical unit. but i was treated for minor things. i think people shouldn't overstate the medical capacity at the white house. in fact, if you wanted a full physical, like just a physical you would get from your doctor or your primary caregiver, they would send you up to walter reed. the white house medical department is basically an office. i think it demonstrates, i think people watching will see the severity of this disease. and it was possible, if you were just consuming information from the president and from some of the more friendly news outlets that he has, that this disease was somehow not as serious. and one thing that could come out of this is people recogni recognizing people

i met him last year at walter reed. he was wounded, but just as determined as the day that he arrived here at west point and he developed a simple goal. today, his sister morgan will graduate. and true to his promise, gavin will be there to stand and exchange salutes with her. >> it has been more than seven years since "the washington post" broke that story. but now, the mention of walter reed in a presidential speech, that name, that phrase, no longer conveys a sense of terrible american failure and outrage. instead, those words in context now convey, as they should, that a soldier was in a place because he was grievously wounded in wartime, but he got good care. he got state of the art care. that's what walter reed means to us today. but alongside that success, that turnaround over the past seven years, from crazy failure at walter reed to what you're able to say about walter reed today, alongside that success, that turnaround, there is still failure, still ongoing failure and still new failure. as the president spoke

barbara walters, they wouldn't have been me.ee on evening, morning, and daily news. nbc's lester holt has more on her groundbreaking career. >> in her long career, barbara walters interviewed just about every person and ask them just about everything. >> you show the president of the united states your fong underwear. >> where did you get the nerve? who does that? >> we read that you were unstable. we read that you were mad. are you saw you didn't bring the tanks? >> yes, i think so. >> thank you to barbara walters. >> she was a pioneer for women, breaking down barriers with persistence and hard work. >> i didn't start out to prove anything, i was doing it because i wanted to be the biggest of the best. i never felt that way. >> barbara walters grew up around show business. her father owned new york's famous latin quarter nightclub. she thought about becoming an actress, but joined today as a writer in 1961. >> barbara is with me right now. >> she wanted a serious role, not easy for a woman back then. >> there was a feeling of w

i'm going to walter reed hospital. i think i'm doing very well, but we're going to make sure that things work out. the first lady is doing very well. so thank you very much. i appreciate it. i will never forget it. thank you. >> late this afternoon, the white house physician released what we have to emphasize is woefully incomplete information about the president's treatment and condition, saying in a statement that he received a, quote, single eight-gram dose of regeneron's polyclonal antibody cocktail as well as zinc, vitamin d, famotidine, melatonin and aspirin. white house says there won't be a transfer of power to mike pence, who thankfully has tested negative. earlier today, administration officials sought to portray mr. trump's symptoms as less than serious. >> he continues to be not only in good spirits but very energetic. we've talked a number of times this morning. he is certainly wanting to make sure that we stay engaged. >> he's hard at work despite the mild symptoms. >> the president will abide by whatever

. >> once you've been at walter reed, you can't get walter reed out of you. it's a part of your spirit. >> walter reed closing its doors officially in about a month and will shift its operations to a new facility that will be called walter reed national medical center with campuses in maryland and virginia. >>> still ahead on "way too early," the umpire who as we said yesterday made the worst call in the history of organized sports in the 19th inning two nights ago provides an explanation. hear what he had to say. and who's back in the middle of another call last night. sports is ahead. >>> plus, alex trebek isn't just a mean quiz show host who belittles those who give incorrect responses. he's also a tough as nails crime fighter. wait until you hear what he did to a burglar who broke into his hotel room. that story and a check on weather when "way too early" comes back. you could save a bundle with geico's multi-policy discount. geico, saving people money on more than just car insurance. ♪ geico, saving people money on more than just car insurance. >>> 5:45

president trump who's leaving walter reed as noted 6:30 eastern time.s just when the national newscast will be in the air. he plans to dominate the news coverage, and he's done that. he's changed the conversation from his taxes, from the disastrous debate appearance. he keeps changing the subject and no one should underestimate the possible potent quality of that in the election campaign itself. don't forget boris johnson, the british prime minister, got covid and the coverage of it, his poll numbers went dramatically up. that may not be the case with president trump but it's something to keep an eye on. >> you know, dan, i think on the subject of credibility and bringing up these important questions, there's no one better to talk to. a little bit earlier i said that i wanted to talk to you later but that's because of this news of the president getting discharged in a very loose sense because he's going to go back to the white house where there's a medical unit, i want to get the reporter as you would want to get from our reporters on the ground about t

walter was the middle brother. the younger brother you just saw there, that got really emotional, rodney called him his best friend. said they had a really special bond. that he literally lost it when he went to the scene. he couldn't even get himself together to explain who he was. he was not allowed to cross the police tape, but broke past the tape there to get to his brother. anthony, the older brother, really kind of holds everyone together. even before we started taping, they had this ongoing joshing back and forth, big brother/little brother dynamic. you can imagine they have the trio missing. >> did you get a sense of their level of confidence in the system? obviously the prosecutors and the police moved very swiftly upon the video. he's been arraigned, charged with murder, denied bail. but that's not the end of the process. >> it wasn't the beginning of the process either. i think a really important point made by the family was that in the first four days of this shooting, the cooperative, proactive police

i think it is probably five or six out to andrews -- to walter reed. >> to walter reed, yeah. i think others have that, presidents often drive. it's not a long trip. if there is a need to minimize this exposure the president has to other people, that might explain the short chopper ride that he's going to take. i don't imagine it takes more than five, six, seven minutes. i wonder if carol lee is still with us. if she can tell us anything about how donald trump emerged from the residence and boarded, if there was anything reportable there. >> yeah, according to the pool of reporters on the other side of marine one, the president walked out of the residence side of the white house at 6:16 p.m. he was wearing a suit and a face mask. and he was followed by his chief of staff, mark meadows. he gave a wave to reporters and boarded marine one, and then took off for walter reed as you saw there and everyone witnessed. he will also, when he lands at walter reed, the way the white house press corps protocols work, there is another set of cameras and reporters on the ground there and the

per multiple reports that's why he was triaged to walter reed. the fact then that he bought himself dexamethazone based on his clinical presentation makes a ton of sense. that's exactly what those doctors should have done because that's exactly what the indication is. dexamethazone saves lives of patients with severe covid. he also bought himself remdesivir because he required supplemental oxygen. why they don't come clean and say he was covid pneumonia is beyond all of us who have been caring for these patients for months. he had it. they should say that he had it. >> and, doc, i'm going to run some of what conley said at today's briefing, and i have in addition to listening and reacting to him, i have a question coming out of it. >> though he may not entirely be out of the woods yet, the team and i agree that all our evaluations and most importantly he clinical states support the president's safe return home where he'll be surrounded by world-class medical care. >> seven to ten days was a window that you'd be concerned about. i don't think we'r

and walter, such is the beginning of the first biography of walter isaacson. >> never, never -- i'vee is so important to where we are both in the current science and the future science of where we're going. what would you say is the basic takeaway that readers should get from this book? >> basic science, curiosity-driven science. sometimes politicians as you know well, lawrence, will say why do we have in the budget some study of bacteria and some repeated sequences that bacteria have in their genetic code? and then somebody discovers, well, those repeated sequences are the way -- they're called crisprs. are the way those bacteria fight viruses and they can adapt every time a new virus hits. and so suddenly basic science leads to a discovery which leads to an invention which becomes a useful thing in our lives. and that's the story of the mrna vaccines and the story of crispr and it's really the story of all of science, is that if you're just curious about nature that will reward you. >> reading a walter isaacson book is like going back to the most exciting college class you ever too

any director would tell that you walter -- what walter did with the glasses, the fidgeting was a fineman emotion and air of spontaneity. the proof is in the pudding. walter's glasses are constantly replayed everybody knows it. i need a pair of glasses. >> i will take notes from that. work on my timing here. >> you know what's interesting, too, i think in some ways if you look at walter cronkite and his sort of royal position and the media landscape at that time, we don't have that any more. when he went to vietnam and came back and said listen. you know. this is my opinion, but it doesn't look like we're being told the truth and doesn't look like it's going well. he did it in a mild mannered way. but it was devastating to johnson, president johnson and people supporting the war. since then i don't know if there is anybody in the media world who would have the credibility or more importantly the standing to make any such statement that would have that type of impact on a public matter. that was kind of -- >> nobody since cronkite. on the kennedy -- both on vietnam and kennedy. on the k

carol, do you at walter reed, what are we hearing. the latest on the white house and when the president may end up heading back to the residence? >> well, we're hearing from chief of staff mark meadows the earliest the president would leave walter reed would be this afternoon. mark meadows also told nba he -- the decision of the president's discharge will be made between the president and his doctors. they'll have the discussions this morning. mark meadows also spoke on fox news where he was optimistic, trying to put forward an optimistic tone about the president, the trajectory. >> if the president in consultation with the doctors will make a decision on whether to discharge him later today. we're still optimistic that based on his unbelievable progress and how strong he's been in terms of his fight against the covid-19 disease, that he will be released, but that decision won't be made until later today. >> reporter: now, mark meadows is putting forward obviously positive case for the president. the president's current condition, but

joining me now are nbc's cara lee who's at the walter reed medical center. dr. patel joins us, former barack obama white house health policy director and nbc news medical contributor, dr. redlener, founder of the national center for disaster preparedness at columbia university. jake sherman, co-author of politico playbook on capitol hill. lots to break todown here. dr. patel, i want to begin with you with some of the medical information we heard and whether or not at this point given what we know, is it safe for this president to be released from walter reed medical center back to the white house? >> yeah, ammon, thank you. in short, no, there's a lot of concerns about safety. by the way, you heard the president's team that was on the steps refer to that. they said, quote, he's not out of the woods yet. so that would imply on top of what we already know with the treatments he's under which are normally given in an inpatient hospital setting like the dexamethasone, like the remdesivir, that he is not out of the woods, and what does out of the woods mean? this is

>> well, walter reed going to walter reed meant going to the hospital.hospitals all around the country, but usually you got sent to walter reed if they couldn't fix you locally. one of the reasons was it was a teaching hospital, and lots of new techniques. bone wounds. you went to walter reed -- if you went to walter reed, it meant you were really, really going to the hospital. >> for active military families now that are watch this and hearing about the legacy of walter reed, and also think about the future of what it means to be cared for, under military protection, what does it mean now? what's going to happen to the great medical hospital services that our military provides? >> well, those facilities are going to close, but walter reed, the services it provides are going to be coordinated in a smaller group of hospitals, including that at bethesda in the washington area, so those techniques and services will not be lost. you know, it's -- it's very, very expensive to run hospitals. it costs a great deal of money and we have constrained resources. fac

taser which he said that walter scott had taken from him. the uncovering of this video appears to have radically changed the course of the investigation of this police shooting in north charleston. today the officer in this case was booked on a murder charge. the officer's name is michael slaying slager. he was arrested and charged at the north chaurls ton police station where he works. we have seen a string of police involved shootings recently where officers have used deadly force against unarmed suspects and many of those cases the officers have not been charged and that is part of why they have become such high-profile things the case in ferguson, missouri with the killing of 18-year-old michael brown, the case in staten island new york with the killing of eric garner. those police officers and both of those shootings were not charged. in the past few months though we have also seen cases where police officers using force have been criminally charged for that use of force. in february was a colorado police officer who was arrested after

right now, we are keeping a close eye on walter reed medical center in bethesda, maryland. in the last 30 minutes or so, white house pool reporters arrived at the hospital. that is, of course, where president trump is being treated for coronavirus. at this moment, we do not know why they were called to travel there, but briefings from his doctors were scheduled for around the same time both saturday and sunday. we're waiting for a little more information from the white house. one of the big questions that we're trying to get answered today, will the president be discharged today? chief of staff mark meadows says the decision will be made today. president trump's twitter account is active today. 19 tweets posted just this morning. our team following up with the very latest on the president's condition. carol lee is outside walter reed medical center. robert costa is with us, as well. political reporter, "washington post," and moderator of "washington week" on pbs. and dr. natalie azar, routetologist and nbc news medical contributor. all three of you, thank you for being with

how was it to compete with barbara walters? >> that's the great thing about barbara walters.d be extremely competitive. if barbara was going after that interview and i was, i was probably going to lose. i mean, there was just no question in my mind i was up against the big mountain, the big one. and it was so hard because she would develop these personal relationships with people and make them feel so comfortable that you just couldn't fight it. >> right. >> and you would lose. but every once in a while when i did get one, she was so incredible. she would mom me even though she wasn't old enough to be my mother. she would write me these notes and i'd think, i'm her most favorite person and then i ran into katie couric one time and she said, you know, i think i'm her most favorite person. >> was that the magic of barbara walt ters, she made people feel big and -- >> and comfortable. she became your friend. i was barbered one time. >> barbaraed? >> yes. when we adopted a child -- by the way, before i get to that, there are so many parallels between barbara and me. her father lo

as well as a giant broadcast journalism, barbara walters. also this hour, the latest revelations involving congressman elect george santos. just days away from being seated, despite an avalanche of lies about almost every facet of his life. helping him, out the fact that kevin mccarthy needs santos and every single vote he can get to win his bid for speaker of the house. we will have a bit the latest on that battle ahead. but first, millions of people around the world already saying, hello to 2023. here are some live pictures from dubai where the clock is striking midnight. just a beautiful spectacular display at the world's tallest building. the burj khalifa. and, earlier australia rang in the new year with fireworks along the sydney harbor. and, crowds in new zealand were among the very first to enter 2023. here is a look at how they ring in the new year on pretoria island in, victoria harbour i should, say in hong kong. gorgeous colorful display there. and, here in new york we have still got several hours to go, but revelers are getting e

the paper got it from the lower for walter scott's family. i want to show you one more thing from the aftermath of the shooting depicted in that video. the officer that fired the shots reported that walter scott had taken his taser, or was trying to take his taser. after the officer shot and handcuffed mr. scott, you can see the officer afterwards jog back to another spot a few feet away where the tape basically started. the officer a researches toward the ground, and he returns back to where mr. scott is lying down, shot, be the handcuffs on. the "new york times" says he returns to mr. scott and drops an object next to his body, and it may be the afore mentioned taser. the uncovering of this video appears to have radically changed the case. today the officer was booked in a murder charge. the officer is michael slager. he has been on the force for five years. he was charged at the north charleston police station where he works. he have seen a string of police involved shootings recently. and many of those casings, the officers have not been

nbc's josh letterman is starting us off, live outside walter reed medical center. critical days aheaded in terms of the president's care. bring us up to speed as far as where we know? >> good morning, ken dis. let's back up to friday when we all as a nation collectively held our breath as we watched on television as the president flew via helicopter from the white house to walter reed just behind me as he was in the wake of his diagnosis of coronavirus. at that point in time the message from the white house was calm, that the president was doing well, that he was in good spirits. we'll all remember they were using the phrase mild symptoms. it was a similarly rosy picture the following day on saturday, yesterday, when we heard from the white house doctors telling us that the president's vital signs were all good, that he was joking about being ready to get up and leave the hospital and the sense seemed to be that the president wasn't particularly ill, but that they were doing all of this simply as precautionary measures. however, that picture has started to change w

walter is with us from his great hometown of new orleans, louisiana. walter, first of all, we're going to make some folks buy the book because they should. a thumbnail sketch. who were the wise men? it would be wise people today. and what would you say to president trump if you had 15 minutes to say to this guy who ran as an anti-establishment, anti-administrative state nationalist, that it's going to have wise people around you? >> the wisemen were a group of people who advise the tumord tr then eisenhower. evan thomas, my co-author and i wrote the book to try to show how american foreign policy sometimes transcended party. these were three democrats, three republicans, and they worked together in administrations democrat and republican. and they kept themselves behind the scenes. it's a type of person i think we could strongly use right now. >> i want to talk to you about this term "back channel," which has been a term of art in the world that you have studied and seen up close. i want to play a compendium of people in the trump administration over t

this is walter robinson. walter robinson is an old time reporter in boston. he said yesterday that walter robinson is one to have those investigative reporters whose names you do not want to see on your call sheet when you come back from lunch. looking around for recognition of walter robinson's work today in the boston press and there's a lot of it. this is him being named the best reporter in that city by boston magazine back in 1983. walter robinson has done good, but the reason he was getting all that praise in 1983 was because he blew up the gubernatorial campaign of this guy in 1982. john lakio. really rich guy. running for republican governor in massachusetts in 1982 until the boston globe turned up the fact that john lakian was telling tales about a lot of things. but the one really sticking was the one he lied about hill tear service. he'd been saying that he received a battlefield promotion in vietnam which is the sort of thing you get for extraordinary behavior on the battlefield in combat. turns out he got no such thing. and walter robinson at the

he told this to walter robinson.ong veterans who served an the front lines for people who walk around telling war stars. seth moulton has been so closed mouthed that only his campaign manager, a former marine, knew of the awards before the globe asked for the citations on wednesday. even seth moulton's parents did not know. this doesn't happen, right? this is not dog bites man. this is man bites dog. candidates keep something out of the public eye because of humility. veteran, little veteran investigative reporter forces candidate to fess up to his medals for bravery that he otherwise told no one about, not even his parents. this is how walter robinson closes out the piece. in the interview seth moulton asked the globe not describe him as a hero. we served our country and served the guys next to us. it's not something to brag about. the greatest honor had nothing to do with the medals. the greatest honor was to lead these men in my platoon, even though it was a war that i and they disagreed with. so god bless the bos

walter mondale who died this evening at the age of 93. we will have more on his

can we expect a briefing from walter reed? >> reporter: so far, there are no indications that it is going to happen. the rhythm that the white house seems to have gotten into yesterday was about providing the updates via the memos from the president's physician that are relayed to the public by the press secretary. what we have not had and do not yet have any indication of that we will have as you mentioned is a chance to actually question the president's physicians to try to get information about the latest on his status. that has been provided typically in the past when presidents have been in the hospital. >> we'll see if it happens today. >> josh lederman live at walter reed hospital. >> the white house is moving forward with the campaigns as well as joe biden and kamala harris who will remain on the campaign trail. they are cancelling an indoor event. >> we have ali vitali following the biden campaign. how are they reacting to the diagnosis of the president? >> reporter: good morning. we have not heard the democratic tick

joy, you talked to walter scott's brother rodney who grew emotional talking about the things that walter wanted to do with his children. listen to this. >> all the things that my brother had planned to do and wanted to do. he was definitely a family man. we talk about him buying this big van, you know, and taking his kids to disney world. and now he won't be able to do it. >> joy you can see the pain this family's going through. >> absolutely rev. you know as a pastor you know you have a family home that's teaming with relatives and aunts and uncles and children and the house is full and in talking with both the brother and mom -- remember, this was the middle child. walter was the big brother to rodney and the little brother to anthony. rodney talked about them having a really close bond. they bathed in the tub together as kids. they were especially close and he said that he was extremely emotional at that scene. they are really broken hearted. so while there is some relief for this family rev, what you really felt in that home was a great deal of pain. the mom is a very religious woman

walter: phillipwasn't a criminal.ny teenagers who got into littletrouble as a juvenile. but that is creating thisnarrative about their son that just wasn't true. paul: there were othermembers of the community who said phillip pannellhad been a gang member. w: every community has themparticular clusters of youth. now there is onecalled the violators. and phillip pannell,i understand, was part of that. batron: the violators, it was just a name. you know, we wasn't a gang from the bronx, you know, what i'm saying, or from staten island. we were just a bunch offriends that protected eachother. we had town rivals hackensack, englewood, you know,and they're like, we'll get into these fights andthen a cop comes break it up. but we wasn't a gang. we were just trying todefend ourselves, you know? we were alwaysoutnumbered. al: the demonizing of phillippannell, casting him as a thug. it had nothing todo with the shooting. that was not known tothe officer when he shot him. he didn't know whether hewas a choirboy or convict. mike

bring it back, and toss it near the deceased man, walter scott. he has been arrested and charged michael slager with murder. you get a sense of the act that he was giving to the lawyer, the press, and others. >> shots fired, subject is down, he grabbed my taser. >>> so the grabbing of the taser was the immediate response. if in fact what the video shows is him grabbing the taser and planted the evidence near him, it goes to the frame of mind of the officer about what he had just done. >> if you look at the video, there is a point in which he notices the person taking the video as well. he seems to look over and it's not clear whether he saw that person taking video or not, but it definitely appears -- and a second officer does come and kneel down over walter scott, and appear to attempt to render aide at that point. officer slager also points his -- what the representatives of the family are saying that for multiple days, the officer continued to tell the story that walter scott posed a danger to him. that he feared for his life, and walter scott

she covered walter mondale's time as a senator and vice president.ed the carter mondale presidency. that's 1984 presidential campaign. she has spoken to him anytime since then. elizabeth drew, thank you very much for joining us tonight. i just want to give you an open mic moment, to react to the news tonight of the passing of walter mondale. >> well it's always very sad when someone good leaves us. but he had a good life, he was never bitter. he lost terribly in 19 eighties, 84, when he ran for president, he got slaughtered. we were standing outside talking one day, and not long after the election, in a car went by and honk and said i voted for you. in mondale turned to me and said, isn't it great, everybody voted for me. and so he just never lost his sense of humor sense of balance about it. i would not make too much of the -- they had a messy vice presidential process. quite frankly, it was a breakthrough no question about it, probably helped set the idea, but it didn't work. she was not vetted carefully enough. it was too much at the last minute.

we're told he was taken to walter reid out of an abundance of caution.t became very concerning, and then it has been reporting that the president was not happy with meadows. you have dr. connolly today saying that was miscon trstruem why? >> when i was part of this white house team, this was really county with what they do. trump will basically direct the comms team what to say and how to respond. and he changes his mind and his emotions from moment to moment. one moment he may say to say one thing and the next moment he would say to say something else. i was joking with mike cohen over text that mark meadows would have been fired if it were not that donald trump was in the hospital for saying what he said. certainly the messaging has been all over the place in is not the time for these types of games. the american people deserve to know what is going on with donald trump. did they find out on wednesday? was it tuesday? i'm hearing it was tuesday and he nopingly still went to fundraisers and interacted with donors and put people at risk. the american mea

we know he is itching to get out of walter reed and back to the white house. mark meadows said the president and his doctors will have consultations and discuss whether or not that is something that can happen and if it did happen, the earliest would be this afternoon. we expect some sort of update on the president's health, but we don't know exactly in what form. no formal announcement of a briefing from the president's doctors as we've seen in the past couple days yet today. steve? >> let me bring you in and pick up on some of that reporting there from carol. i think a lot of people hearing this that kayleigh mcenany was at the rose garden ceremony where a number of positive cases of folks who tested positive were there, as well. she was on the job for the last week. the white house is saying this was because they deemed her an essential worker. is that correct? why was kayleigh mcenany at this event where so many people ultimately tested positive with. why was she on the job for the last week and, more broadly, take us through what steps the administration

>> reporter: dash cam video of the walter scott traffic stop is released. and tonight, another man comes forward, saying he was wrongfully tased by officer michael slager. that man and his lawyer and a witness join me, exclusively. >>> then, co-chair of the obama task force on policing, on the push for more body cameras. tremaine lee on the change that came to ferguson this week. >>> why rand paul is openly feuding with the nra. >>> and another state is banning employees from saying climate change. >> being green is about saving green. >> "all in" starts right now. >>> good evening from new york. i'm chris hayes. in the shooting death of an apparently unarmed black man by a white police officer in south carolina, there is now dash cam video. officer michael slager has, of course, been arraigned, charged with murder for the shooting death of walter scott. officer slager was also dismissed from the north charleston police force after this video was presented to authorities, which appears to show officer slager shooting mr. scott as he runs away. the south car

we're told he's back at walter reed tonight, so this was a drive to nowhere. we're going to talk about it right now on "american voices." ♪ >>> so this all started about 30 minutes ago on twitter. president trump posted a new video giving an update on his health. it's about a minute long. he then got into a car and left walter reed hospital where he's been receiving treatment since friday. the president waved to fans for a bit and is now apparently back at walter reed. here is part of the sound from that twitter video. >> it's been a very interesting journey. i learned a lot about covid. i learned it by really going to school. this is the real school. this isn't the let's read the book school. and i get it. and i understand it. and it's a very interesting thing. i'm going to be letting you know about it. in the meantime, we love the usa. and we love what's happening. thank you. >> let's bring in msnbc's josh letterman live at walter reed for us. josh, what just happened? >> reporter: well, alicia, if you thought that president trump was focussed squarely right

>> and walter isakson was my editor. >> how unprecedented is this?there are no ways to possibly compare this to anything. i keep coming back to dorothy parker's description of warren harding, another scandal prone president who said ultimately he is just a slob. and there is a quality of just to this entire administration from donald trump down. but the difference is in the 1920s america was not a nuclear power. the president doesn't have to worry about what is happening on the korean peninsula. we are in a situation where there is unprecedented power resting with the president of the united states and from day to day we have no idea if anyone in the white house is either -- >> that was the point of senior state department official. coming off the european trip it is clear to her that everyone else is playing chess. the american president is playing checkers. you have been around enough to know that sooner or later the presidency is going to raise its ugly head, something bad is going to happen somewhere. >> or we are going to have all of these rumor

walter reed sits right outside of washington.t's basically across the street from the headquarters of the national institutes of health. it sits right next to the uniform services university, which is basically a military medical school. there's a medical, dental, public health, allied professions school. so you're in the middle of this huge federal slash military medical complex like nothing else on the planet. also the president is getting access to these treatments from regeneron and getting treatment for remdesivir. what do you make of those two options, particularly since they're not fully approved, fully vetted for general use for everyday people? >> yeah. first of all, i couldn't agree with you more about walter reed. this is a real national center of excellence. in fact, walter reed himself was the one who discovered about yellow fever, another virus. so it's pretty interesting that this is where the president's being treated for a virus. but in terms of the treatments that the president's receiving, both of these are rel
