president trump hitting the links with brett favre. they played at trump national golf club in bed minister, new jersey. they talked about the how sports can reopen the economy. he they hit the course as president trump attended a fund-raiser at the club. those are the headlines. the president and brett favre. pete: that is golfing duo i'm jealous of. there is no doubt about that. jedediah: still ahead, all eyes on capitol hill where senate republicans are expected to release the coronavirus relief bill tomorrow. the extra weekly 600-dollar unemployment checks end today unless congress acts. peter more ricci on the four things he expects to see. don't miss it coming up next. th. this is unlimited built right.

the white house actually sent a picture of him and brett favre together smiling giving a thumbs up. while they were having a good time on the golf course back in washington republicans are still fractured on what the proposal will actually look like for that next stimulus deal. and you heard me right this isn't some negotiation between democrats and republicans. this st. still going on within the republican party. white house administration officials split with senate republicans over details of this bill. we know secretary mnuchin was up on the hill today along with chief of staff mark meadows. they were there for what they're describing as a check-in meeting because there are still various aspects of this bill that the parties have not all agreed to. as you've said there are unemployment benefits that are set to expire by the end of the month. but actually a viewer reminded me after the last time we spoke if they weren't extended today that $600 a week that there was going to be a lapse. so they're done right now.

i'm sorry it's brett favre. complete lack of connection with the reality on the ground, what's happening to the american people right now, as if that, okay, i don't need to be in the white house while there's a hurricane and a coronavirus pandemic and fights over racial justice. i'm going to be out here partying. i think that's what's most disturbing. although, you know, brett favre has given us packer fans lots of heartburn over the years. i guess he's not done. >> i think this never trumper conversation is one we will have for a long time coming. thank you for joining me. >>> coming up, the legacy of congressman john lewis as he crosses the edmund pettus bridge one last time. stay with us. y febreze small sp. just press firmly and it continuously eliminates odors in the air and on soft surfaces. for 45 days. >> techand your car., we're committed to taking care of you >> tech: we'll fix it right with no-contact service you can trust. >> tech: so if you have auto glass damage, stay safe with safelite. >> singers

he played golf with hall of famer brett favre, and then this video from today, it's the only public-ish activity we saw. he went outside of his country club to a small group of supporters and threw make america and keep america great hats at them. he is clearly there without a mask on. no one in his entourage appears to be wearing a mask. that's how president trump spent his weekend. he announced today he would no longer throw out the ceremonial pitch at the yankees, because that day he will be so focused in the future on coronavirus, and will have meetings on vaccines. that's just another saturday in the future in august. to know, the way he spent it was playing government and spending time with supporters. >> two images over the weekends. two images without him wearing a mask just days after he said wearing a matching would be patriot tick. kristin hole al kristin holmes, thank you. >>> doctor reiner, when you see the president posing for pictures without wearing masks, when you hear him saying testing is overrated even as cases are spiking, what comes to mind to you? >> he's unteacha

the white house proudly sending out this photo this weekend of the president golfing with brett favre. we'll show you that photo in a little bit. all of this in the face of poll after poll right now showing that the president is in some pretty deep trouble. a new one from nbc news and maris to the battleground state of arizona with joe biden is up by five points. later this hour, i'll talk to biden deputy campaign manager kate benningfield about their strategy for the next 100 days. and we're also watching something today that really transcends the world of politics. we're talking about remembering an american hero, the late representative john lewis, who made the final trip across the edmund pettus bridge just a short time ago. this is the same place, you'll recall, where he was beaten and nearly lost his life fighting for civil rights more than 50 years ago. moving images right there. looks like a drone showing that final procession there. we'll have much more on this ahead. including another moving moment that we're going bring you live as the body of the congressman arrives at the

doing while the nation was crumbling you guessed it he was playing golf and smiling for photos with brett favrealways loved favre, so it makes sense that ol' cheese brain would, too. also, what's going on here, man? he looks like he just crawled out of a vat at ace chemicals. this is how a dog smiles when they have their head out the window that's the face you make when you are trying to hold in a fart at a funeral not that i think trump would bother trying to hold it in. "whoa, whoo! well, boy, if that doesn't wake him up, he is definitely dead. although in fairness, it's probably better when trump is golfing because then he is too busy to whine about cartoons and legos and statues. this bottom-of-the-barrel culture war bull[ bleep ] is the result of a political movement that is intellectually barren and morally bankrupt they have nothing to run on, no policies to champion, no achievements to tout so they think they can get voters to care about statues and cartoons it's all they have left, and that's because americans know trump has failed it's clear in poll after poll. all you have do is look

the white house distributed this picture of the president and former quarterback brett favre out on theinks. the president travels to north carolina today. we'll be covering that. certainly that breaking news that robert o'brien has tested positive for covid-19, the national security adviser. we'll be tweeting about that as well. you can find me on twitter @scott mcgrew. >> gilroy strong, the phrase showing the resill yenience of community. the shooting that happened at christmas hill park packed with people. a gunman killed three wounding 17 others. nearly a year late tr the community held a moment of silence. leadership gilroy put on a small festival to show the community in the wake of the tragedy they remain gilroy strong. >>> a memorial dance. organizers also raised money for nonprofits who usually help out at the festival. >> even though there's no in-person festival, things are full steam ahead for 2021. of course many in the community really hope that this year's festival would have been a big part of the healing process. cline reaffirming it's just a small hiccup. >> i think th

two weeks without a single covid-19 event on his public schedule but after a round of golf with brett favre this weekend, he announced he won't throw out the first pitch at the yank key's game because of his, quote, strong focus on the china virus. on capitol hill republicans unveiled their $1 trillion coronavirus relief proposal after a tense weekend of negotiations with the white house. the gop wants to cut enhanced unemployment benefits from $600 to $200, allocate billions for testing in top federal health agencies and put $105 billion towards reopening schools, but there's no sense that all republicans will support it. >> half the republicans are going to vote no to any phase 4 package. that's just a fact. >> benefits from the last bill are set to expire in a matter of days. the white house suggests passing another bill. >> perhaps we move that forward and negotiate on the rest of the bill in the weeks to come. >> but democrats are adamantly opposed to that idea and have put forward a bill of their own three times the size of republicans. >> i have never, never, this is so frustrating f

yesterday he also met with supporters at a roundtable and played golf with brett favre and while the administration and while his advisers and aides are working back in washington to pass the stimulus bill you mentioned to come up with a proposal as well as to try to ramp up testing, this is how president trump is spending the weekend. >> the president and the entourage not wearing a mask. kristen holmes, thank you so much. >>> for more on testing, i want to turn to dr. wane riley. the harvard institute of global health said that the u.s. should be conducted 3.5 million to 5 million tests a day. yet this morning admiral giroir defending the steps that the administration is taking saying that he believes there's a manhattan project-like effort going around testing. while also raising doubts and being pretty dismissive i would say of the calls of doctors at the institute of global health. what is your take? >> good afternoon. good to be with you. i agree with my colleague. we are nowhere near in july 2020 where we need to be on testing in this country. it is uneven and not surged to th

we also saw the president golfing this weekend with nfl hall of famer brett favre. once again, no masks. it's only been six days since the president tweeted this. many people say that it is patriotic to wear a face mask when you can't socially distance. there's nobody more patriotic than me, your favorite president. let's discuss this with former assistant commissioner of health and cnn medical analyst, also with us the director of the centers for disease control research and policy at the university of minnesota. professor, thank you very much to both of you for joining us. do americans need to see their president president wearing a mask more often. he doesn't do it very often. if they are going to change their own behavior, wouldn't that set an example from the top? >> yes, in fact, it's important we should be wearing masks. we want to not use as the only means for protecting ourselves because we know distancing is by far the best thing we can do, but we should all be wearing masks. >> he needs to set an example because there's a bunch of people out there who don

weekend, while in his country club in new jersey, we saw the president with the nfl hall of famer brett favrelaying golf. no mask. and here he was today. he stopped, met with a little crowd. tossing hats, maga hats, to the crowd. once again, no mask. if we're going to change public behavior and its patriot to wear a mask, why aren't we seeing the president doing that to set an example and to convince the american public it's critically important, very simple, just put on mask? >> you know, wolf, i wish i had an answer to that. it would certainly make our work an awful lot easier, if president trump would's consistently wear a mask. he sets an example for a large portion of our population, and we need all of our public leaders, werther thhethe whethe politicians, celebrities, to say it's not just okay to wear a mask but normal and expected. i wish he would do it. he's putting his followers at risk by not wearing a mask and honestly putting his friends at risk, because if he doesn't wear one around them they're not going to wear ones around each other. he may be getting tested but the rest of u

and we're just learning that the president spent his day golfing with brett favre.his is an official white house photo we're seeing. in what world would the white house want this photo out here given those circumstances? >> this world. trump land. look, it obviously doesn't make sense. but so much of this doesn't make sense. the presidents are -- it's all about crisis leadership. this president has failed to treat it seriously. he seems to continue to want it to just go away. you've seen the white house fighting with their own party about increasing money for testing. where is the plan for national testing? they really are in denial and the president is off playing golf. to play to the base strategy makes no sense. pandemics don't care about partisan politics. play to the base is the single worse approach you can make. we're raeping the whirlwind because of it, folks. >> margaret, it would be one thing if the president just thought every single president should be putting out photos of him playing golf no matter what circumstances. but we know there's always a tweet

road to reelection, spending the weekend at his golf course in bedminster, new jersey, seen with brett favrem the course to the campaign, democrats are showing signs of outpacing republicans in mail-in voting requests as pandemic conditions continue to sweep the nation. trump's team meanwhile is zeroing in on key battleground states like arizona, florida, and michigan. abc news has learned the campaign plans to open voter outreach centers in communities of color, areas that have been disproportionately impacted by covid-19. the president facing criticism for his handling of the pandemic. polls show his opponent joe biden with a double digit lead. an tmpoc grapples washington, d.c. questions loom about economic relief. the $600 supplemental unemployment benefits run out this week. the trump administration wants those payments to continue, but -- >> we're not going to use taxpayer money to pay people more to stay home. so we're going to transition to a, uh, ui system that is based upon wage replacement. we've talked about approximately 70% wage replacement. >> reporter: treasury secretary stev

email roughly an hour or so ago that president trump spent the day golfing with nfl hall of famer brett favrei will note i want to give a special shoutout to my producer jason hoffman who taught me everything i need to know about who brett fav is before he did this hit. i want to know while he was there playing golf, taking pictures, sending them out to the press, member of his own administration were trying to get a deal done on the stimulus bill. this is still not happening. there is no republican proposal. senate republicans are at odds with the white house over what exactly that's going to look like. and wolf, we're at a time where the unemployment, that extra benefit, $600 a week that 20 million americans rely on, that's going to expire at the end of the month and there doesn't seem to be any sort of cohesive proposal, anything to tell those people that it's going to be okay or they're going to get the relief that they still very badly need, wolf. >> he was a pretty decent football player, kristen, just giving you background on the person the president was playing golf with. thank you ve

after a round of golf with nfl star brett favre this weekend, he announced he won't throw out first pitch at the yankees game because of his, quote, strong focus on the china virus. on capitol hill today, republicans unveiled their $1 trillion coronavirus relief proposal after a tense weekend of negotiations the white house. the gop wants to cut enhanced unemployment benefits from $600 to $200, allocate billions for testing and top federal health agencies and put $105 billion towards reopening schools. but there's no sense that all republicans will support it. >> half the republicans are going to vote no to any phase four package. that's just a fact. >> reporter: benefits from the last bill are set to expire in a matter of days. the white house has even suggested passing a smaller bill that would temporarily extend jobless benefits. >> perhaps we put that forward, get that passed as we can negotiate on the rest of the bill in the weeks to come. >> reporter: but democrats are adamantly opposed to the idea, and have put forward a bill of their own three times the size of republicans'. >> i

level that we can't even go to canada right now and trump played golf yesterday in new jersey with brett favrejoining me now are two of nbc's reporters who didn't go golfing yesterday, they were working in harrisburg, pennsylvania, ali vitali and in milwaukee, wisconsin, shaquille brewster. thanks for joining me this morning. we're 100 days out from election day. in the past you would find campaign volunteers shaking hands. this new normal is something entirely different. most of this is being done online or by phone. you are going to be with a group that is still doing some old fashioned door-to-door campaigning with several precautions. how is that going to work? >> reporter: you set the stage exactly right. typically to mark 100 days out you might see field offices opening and canvassers gathering in groups to go door-knocking. but that's not the case right now. a lot of these parties and campaigns have transitioned their organizing structure to being online. there's an old organizing mantra of meeting voters where they are. voters are at home, but they're on their computers, phones and you

club working on his golf game and grinning for a picture with former green bay packers quarterback brett favre addition too finally getting photographed with someone famous, since kanye, trump announced he would no longer travel to new york next month to throw the first pitch at the yankees first game because of coronavirus. uh-huh. it was an abrupt thing for a man who has refused to take any responsibility for the response to the coronavirus. it's hard to imagine that it was now the 150,000 americans who have died because of the coronavirus. that death toll has been nurnginurnsurging for months. none of that is new. what has changed according to the white house officials who spoke to "the washington post" is that senior advisers began presenting trump with maps and data showing spikes in coronavirus cases among our people in republican states. they also shared projections predicting that virus surges could soon hit politically important states in the midwest including michigan, minnesota, and wisconsin. our people, that is the distinction in donald trump and his administration's mind between
