andrea: i'm lucky. boards i'm on right now, apple and unilever, do a brilliant job, run by great male ceo's, but insisting women are part of the pipeline. the statistics, though, if i move out of these two boards validates what you just said. but the question for me is, do we need to have a woman ceo to make sure the pipeline is full? i say not. this mantle of making sure there's equal representation cannot be done by women alone. men and women leaders have to understand the business case for it. i was fortunate to be on a european board to give me a vantage point that was different than the one i went in with. i would not have been for quotas of legislation. if you had asked me and we need to use the stick versus the carrot, i would've said, aren't we passed that in 2015? i joined the daimler mercedes-benz board in germany, a very male-dominated industry, but the eu legislation and the commitment in germany itself, what was a glacial pace for women in management, as well as women on boards, accelerated

>> andrea, this is a tragedy. i have been in public life for about 25 year, and jim mattis is one of the finests public officials that i have ever worked with. he has been a source of stability in this country, and when the news broke yesterday that he would be leaving an ambassadors of the allies have been reaching out the senators to basically say what the hel slshgs going on? the allies are frightened and as you pointed out he laid out two blunt reasons. he believes that we need to strengthen alliances, and he believes that we have to stand up to authoritarian adversaries, and he does not believe that the president of the the united states shares those the values. so this is as loud an alarm bell as could be rung by a public servant of gravity and depth that secretary mattis has. >> who else could stand up in the national security ka cabinett? would bolton or pompeo stand up? because we have not seen any sign of that as something as important as the khashoggi issue? >> no, they don't have the gravitas except fo

here is andrea mitchell. >>> i'm andrea mitchell, and continuing the dramatic sentencing of general michael flynn, the highest ranking official to face prosecution so far is at this hour inside of the courthouse, and inside of the courtroom for the hearing, and emmitt sullivan pressing the defendant with arguments made by the attorneys regarding the guilty plea, and flynn said that he does not want to the change or challenge his plea, and added that he was aware that he was lying to the fbi when it was a crime at his position at the white house. and in a separation allegation filed ed yesterday of his firm' representation of turkey in the transition. the judge said that if he had not cooperated he could have been charged in that case as well. and the special counsel is not rk mending sentencing, because of substantials a s assistance over 19 interviews. joining me is mimi rowka, and ben rhodes, and msnbc national political reporter david ignatius, and also a kcolumnist and contributor carol lee. and so, carol lee and mimi rocah with us, and let e's talk about what we just heard from the jud

with this breaking news, i'm andrea mitchell in washington. moments ago a russian woman who has ties to key players and the national rifle association pleaded guilty in 23ed ral court for failing to register as a foreign agent. 33-year-old mariia butina is a foreign student here in washington operated in top republican circles while reporting back to the circles in russia including is sergey lavrov. joining us is intelligence reporter ken delainian, and jim vance, a former u.s. attorney, and analyst fred ceglusi, and first, tell us what you saw there there. >> yes, we saw her coming out from the court with green jumpsuit, and her hair pulled back in braids and she was stoic as they read the answercharges. and her answers were yes, no, one-word answers. and it with because guilty plea, and the judge took a moment to say that the government has phone calls that butina had with a journalist while in detention and that is when the government heard reference to her lawyer robert driscoll that he had perhaps set up the phone calls and put him in a c

i mean, andrea, this is a political process. the very beginning, the attorney general paxton is somebody that republicans have been eyeing for a long time as somebody who has higher political aspirations. all sorts including in this district in texas engaging in a practice known as judge shopping. this is a well known conservative judge who's known for striking down all sorts of laws that liberals have fought for and what you have here is basically a political outcome that was sought through a very politicized process. >> now, sabrina, the other thing that has just broken in this last hour is another aspect of the nbc news "wall street journal" poll which shows pretty shockingly that in 2018, right now, the people polled, only a third of americans feel that women have made gains, major gains in equality. gender equality is going backwards, according to a lot of people. this is a less significant result. it used to be 46%, so evenly divided, felt that women were making gains. >> let's take a look at the landscape for a moment. yo

>> that is right, andrea.ence an gun control, that is a key issue for the progressive base of the democratic party and important issue in the last few years, and especially mike bloomberg has been in the forefront on that issue, and expect that he is going to be using that to his advantage if he wants to run, but there are some doubts as to whether he is too cozy with the industry or whether he was a little bit too business-friendly and moderate as the mayor, and whether he can appeal to the middle of the country, but he'd be a formidable candidate if he jumps into the race. >> and now we hear that a number of former president obama's aides are taking a close look at beto o'rourke that he is actually inching towards running for president potentially even though he did not win his texas race, and this is what president obama a had to say to david axelrod and the "ax file." >> impressive young man who ran a terrific race in texas. what i liked most about his race is that it didn't feel constantly poll tested. it

andrea, i spent two full days in these demonstrations. spent a lot of time on the road across france with demonstrators and they have not talked about trump once. i actually asked them about the tweets and the messages that donald trump had been suggesting were linked to his strategy and they said, well, trump has absolutely nothing to do with this. this is about france. this is about macron and everything he represents. this is a president that was elected on a promise to shake things up in france and he said he was ready to make tough decisions and people think he is stuck. >> thank you so much. great to have you with us. thank you for being with us today. we'll be right back. fatherhood. but i'd rather be here with my little man than not be here because of migraine. i have three words for migraine...

andrea told emily it was like being under house arrest. >> in a sworn affidavit in 1997 andrea reed came and said she felt threatened by police to give a certain story. she was worried that they could place her at the murder scene. so she was willing to play by their script. then we went down to texas death row to interview hank skinner. it was intimidating. being, gosh, what was i? barely legal to drink and here i was on texas death row. when he came to talk to us one of the first things i remember was how articulate he was. >> i want the world to know that i'm not a murderer. that means more than anything to me because i've still got family that are being -- you know, they're suffering because of this. why would i kill her? i loved her more than anything in this world. i mean, and not only that, but scooter and randy, why kill them? you can't find a single person that truthfully will tell you that skinner never laid a hand on them. >> one of the things that struck me in talking to him was that there was a likely alternative suspect, robert danell. >> bob danell served time for grand la

as you pointed out, andrea, we expect the meeting to get under way in short order. we will be tracking it closely here from the white house today, and fast-moving developments. >> and of course o, kristen and kasie, mark meadows who was on the short list of chief of staff he was weigh iing n and is that not the case of the freedom caucus, and the republican who is complaining about the short term deal? >> he was, but it is interesting that my colleague, and our colleague alex mo was here late last night, and meadows came and talk t talked to the reporters initially and railed against the c.r. and then he went out on to the floor and made a point to come back out to say he did not necessarily mean that it meant that the president would not sign the bill which is a little bit of cleanup. it is interesting, that there was a sense that they went down to the house floor saying that he was caving, and that this is a bad plan. i am not necessarily sure anyone here in congress actually thought that this would go down. now, the confluence of factors this morning have -- it i

last time it was andrea leadsom and theresa may, andrea leadsom and theresa may, andrea leadsom droppedut, it ended up being theresa may, it is back to 2005 when david cameron was elected ona 2005 when david cameron was elected on a membership vote. tell us about what you have been discussing with people today? what are you thinking. to take those who have been supporting theresa may. they are furious about what they would describe as hardline brexiteers in their own party. they would use language which is stronger than that. i detected a certain sense amongst the brexiteers that they may not be able to pull it off and what they do next is not entirely clear. a couple of things. one, the conservative party has a massive problem on its hands. we have said there's so many times on bbc news. to describe the conservative party as divided over judah is like describing bits are hardly desert —— describing the sa ha ra hardly desert —— describing the sahara desert as sandy. this macro —— describing the conservative party as divided over europe is like describing the sahara desert as sandy. eve

andrea leadsom morning that you can't stop a no-deal brexit.om, as we know, is a brexiteer and she says that mps cannot prevent the uk leaving the eu without a deal if they don't approve theresa may's plan or an alternative. i think that her intervention is likely to anger those who are pro remain. she is warning against a second referendum. i think you think she's right, don't you? is she technically right? she is and she isn't. she is taking the theresa may line that you've got to have a deal or else you delay it. i don't think... you got to find some alternative in the time we've got and therefore have an alternative deal to the theresa may deal where you end up with no deal or you postpone it by deferring article 50, which brings in a different set of questions about a second referendum, a general election and so on. so technically it is right, unless we have a deal and unless we do something to stop it before march the 29th, as it's dines we are leaving then —— as it stands. the 29th, as it's dines we are leaving then -- as it stands. but

andrea, you had a front row seat on the tillerson era at the state department. what did you make of this conversation with our mutual friend mr. schieffer? >> well, trust bob schieffer to be able to get that out of rex tillerson. that was the most honest, direct statement i'd ever heard from rex tillerson. he never fully denied the moron question when we reported it, as you recall, and when we asked him, he said, you know, i never discuss what i say about the president. he never flatly denied it. he didn't lie about it. we all knew he felt it. but for him to say he didn't read, he didn't take briefings, we all know that. but the other people around the president are not willing to quite say that. and this was a man who had been fired ignominiously. he was just back from asia and at 8:30 in the morning he was fired and it was humiliating and a terrible end to a really bad relationship. >> peter baker as you know, from achieving the rank of eagle scout to running exxonmobil, rex tillerson has generally succeeded at everything in life. and then he gets caught up in

we're joined by andrea mitchell. andrea, your thoughts on this farewell to 41. >> reporter: it was extraordinary, to see the former presidents paying tribute to him, whose humility is so difference from today's politics. the emotional core was the unique bond between the two different president bushs who are connected forever by that unconditional love. watching george w. bush boarding that plane he had flown so often, bringing his father home. i was thinking of him, having lost both mother and father in just seven months and now the leader of this unique american >> day. nice to have you with us today, andrea. >>> breaking news, u.s. marin went down off the coast of japan. a major operation under way right now. han -- hans nichols, what do you have? >> reporter: lester, the crash occurred around 2:00 a.m. in the morning during a refueling operation between a marine kc-130 andf/a-18. both planes crashed into the water. it's now light out there and japanese search and rescue continue to look for the missing crew. the

i want to turn now to andrea mitchell. and r andrea, let me ask you about the piece over which george h.w. bush presided. tell us about how the circumstances differed then from now? >> the peace and don't forget the first gulf war and the way with that he executed it. i think he was preeminent in two regards. in foreign policy and creating great coalitions, coalitions that helped us fight that war. and as james baker would later privately say, they negotiated so many contributors from japan to the saudis. against saddam hussein that they may have turned a profit on it because america itself did not pay for the gulf war but more importantly that there was a lasting legacy from that. they did not go into baghdad. he resisted some pressure to do exactly that. and he also built a domestic legacy in terms of the budget deal that perhaps doomed his re-election but led to decades of prosperity. decades of prosperity despite a recession that did spoil the last year of his presidency. but the pay as you go agreement that came out o

kpix 5's andrea nakano he's live in hayward where his family spoke out tonight. andrea? >> reporter: family and self -- fellow officers held a very emotional vigil tonight, they wanted to send a message to not drive under the influence of alcohol and drugs but also to continue to heal those wounds from the tragic loss. >> i miss the imperfections, i miss the perfect heart he had, the willingness to go without, so that someone could have what they wanted. he had this way of wake -- making my worst days better and my better days great. >> reporter: moving words by andrew camilleri's wife as she shared memories of her late husband. >> hard to believe that a year has passed. we have had birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, first days of school and so much more. we think about him constantly. >> reporter: 11:30 last christmas eve, cammalleri was on the side of the road on 880 when another car slammed into his suv -- suv. his partner survived. he wasn't as lucky. >> i wouldn't want a parent to feel what this feels like to lose a child. i'm not the same person i was a year ago.

how are the chinese taking all of this andrea. clearly not very well and expected to be so that to beijing says canada has breached the bilateral agreement by failing to inform the consulate immediately after the arrest and apparently that is plenty of the agreements and the chinese authorities have also summoned the u.s. and canada as ambassadors demanding them to release her as soon as possible. top of ways revenue comes from europe the middle east and africa can it survive without the united states well to be honest probably not and this is a lot to do with china being on the look i mean china overall is going to be on the losing end of this if they retaliate with a ban on u.s. tech products i mean it may not be well for them because if they do not get access to a government run infrastructure telecom infrastructure which a lot of telcos have to seek permission from and those if those government bodies do block well we then there's very little that while we can do to go out grow out of these of the u.s. as well as these other c

andrea mitchell, nbc news chief foreign affairs correspondent and the host of the noon hour eastern time on weekdays on this very network. and jeremy bash, former chief of staff at cia and the pentagon, former counsel to house intel. and, jeremy, it is your past as someone who knows general mattis and someone who worked with him. how bad did it have to get for him to do this? second part of the question, where do you assess our risk right now? >> extremely bad, brian, because secretary mattis has told confidants over the past several weeks that he was not going to quit out of fatigue or frustration. he would stand his ground unless the president asked him to do something that secretary mattis believed was manifestly not in the interest of american national security. here comes the president directing, ordering the secretary of defense to pull out of syria, possibly to take down our troop levels in afghanistan, to destroy the alliance structure that has kept us strong since world war ii. and, in essence, to see a lot of territory and game to iran and russia in the middle east, that was en
