he continued to call out desantis while on stage in davenport, iowa.ing record while he was a member of congress >> so remember this. ron desantis, he strongly opposed ethanol. do you know that we don't even know if he's run ing, but if he's not running, i'll say, he was fine on ethanol. he strongly opposed ethanol and fought against it at every turn. he's going to do that again because people that come out early for something, that's where they go. that's what it is. so he may do something politically, but he was very bad on ethanol he fought it all the way he fought against social security he wanted to decimate it and voted against it three times voted against social security. that's a bad one a lot of people don't know that. they have been finding out over the last four weeks, one of the reasons that we're zooming in the polls, perhaps, maybe it's other things too, but it's based on what we have done and on social security, he wanted the behind mum retirement age to be lifted to people that are 70 years old, a substantial increase over what it is ri

davenport's iowa, which is included in the tornado warning . i believe as of right now, it is still unconfirmed tornado warning zooming in here. yes, it's still blinking red. so what is the unconfirmed tornado warning that again? i've said this so many times over the last couple of hours. i'll say it again. just because we don't have that confirmation does not mean you don't need to be getting to your tornado safe spot. this tornado warning a tornado can still happen at any moment. which is why we want you to get there very rapidly again . davenport's iowa i'm seeing on the bottom left of the screen. some torrential rain is nicole was telling you i'm very happy that she went in to take shelter. i hope you follow her steps. a lot of cars out here. unfortunately under this tornado warning, so we're getting a closer look. this area of rotation here looks like it's right. over areas like eldridge and mount joy and green acres. it's a moving off to the northeast to actually babcock. it looks like east moline moving as well, a little bit tricky to se

his first event here in davenport just wrapped up.t saw a full house, and a pretty enthusiastic crowd. several standing ovations here. and as you mentioned, the governor is here as part of his book tour. a book that is largely a playbook of florida policies. he's described it as the blueprint for america's revival, and it's really been a vehicle for delivering his message. so we're expecting to hear -- >> dasha, are you still there? >> oh, i'm sorry. i just lost you. i just lost you for a moment there. he is largely using this book to deliver the message of touting his what he sees as the biggest successes he has had in florida and how those could apply here in iowa and nationally as well. and while he has not yet declared his bid for the white house, he certainly is positioning himself as the kind of leader who could appeal to voters outside of his home state. take a listen to just some of what he said today. >> one thing i can say, if you talk to floridians, there's no drama in our administration. there's no palace intrigue. they ba

yeah, we left davenport which was the site of desantis's iowa debut.was received by a packed house a very enthusiastic crowd of 700 plus attendees according to his staff and to our rough head count there. he has not announced, as you mentioned, the stop is part of his book tour, which is largely a play book of florida policies that he's been using to deliver his message. a big part of his speech today, which was a very stump style speech, by the way, was talking about his covid policies in florida. really criticizing the federal response at one point saying we were right, they were wrong, getting a standing ovation for that. he got at least five standing ovations by our count. this is a huge test for desantis. this is the first time that we're seeing him try to appeal to voters outside of his home state of florida, and the iowa caucus this time around could be more important than ever, considering how big of a field on the gop side we're expecting here to play a really big role in knowing that field and the voters here, look, they really value retail s

just happened to be davenport, iowa they love desantis in iowa.g elevations from a packed house of a thousand. and when trump came to town, everything shut down. there were people lined up around the block, 11 hours before show time. and you know crowd sizes matter to the former president. but a new cnn poll has desantis beating trump by 2 points. great poll for desantis but, again, still early and trump still ahead in other polls. but, these guys are on a collcoalition collision course o doubt. preview agnew line of attack making a play for seniors and farmers. ron i might as well tell you if he is not running i will tell you is he fine on ethanol. strongly opposed ethanol and fought against it at every turn and very, very bad on ethanol. fought it all the way and also fought against social security. he wanted to disseminate it and voted against it three times. he wanted the minimum retirement age to be lifted to people that are 70 years old 70 big increase. also voted to severely cut medicare. i will not be cutting medicare and i will not be cut

trump supporters, but trump is going to be fighting for these people as well, and he is coming to davenport a few days after desantis, and nikki haley as well, and so everyone is starting to descend here on florida, and this is the governor's first time in the state, and this is his introduction of the voters. techn technically, he has a book here "the courage to be free" and handing out copies to people coming, and the subtext is that he is interested in running for president, and he laying groundwork for the run, and this is the first big step towards that move, erica. >> steve contorno, thank you. >>> and out today, the fed may hike rates more, because of the job market out today. and wed will discuss that news. >>> and stunning news out of alabama. yet another norfolk southern train goes off of the track. we will take you live to the scene of that derailment. >>> and new concerns that russia is sending weapons to iran. the full details are just ahead. s it gets in between teeth to destroy 5x more plaque above the gumline than f floss. for a cleaner, healthier mouth. listerine. feel the

trump has so he goes to downtown davenport in iowa and desantis got a thousand people for his speech it was an icy morning. >> steve: it was a book signing right? >> ainsley: yes. trump arrived yesterday he spoke last night and people were signing up at 7:00 a.m., they lined up for 11 hours for this event. ron desantis crowd with 1,000 people and trump's facility sat 2400 people. >> brian: it's fascinating to see because trump is going after ron desantis saying he wants to mess with social security and medicare. he is also trying to label him as a jeb bush/paul ryan republican. and also he has mentioned to me i asked ron desantis too are you worried about being labeled before you get in and he said no. i'm looking to stand in my track record. trump's retort yesterday was by the way florida was going great before ron desantis. rick scott had done a great job with it, people like florida because of the weather and by the way he was saying about mike pence mike pence over the weekend said he holds donald trump available for january 6 but then said? >> ainsley: you mean donald trump's re

in his earlier stop in davenport, iowa he spoke about his agenda in florida.sident trump with 80% favorability among republicans in iowa. desantis has 75% favorability. former president trump by the way will outline his education plan during a trip to davenport monday. another declared candidate former u.n. ambassador and south carolina governor nikki haley was in iowa as well today. her second trip there since announcing her intentions to run. one of america's most liberal cities is losing stipulates. residents and businesses are fleeing portland, oregon. and much of it has to do with what is perceived as a decline in the quality of life. correspondent dan springer shows us tonight. >> kennedy schneider describes herself as a typically portland liberal votes democratic and routinely for tax increases now after back-to-back years of record high murders and multiple shootings near her home she moved her family to washington state. >> i haven't heard a gunshot since we moved. it's been great. it's the little things in life. >> once a magnet for people and compan

davenport's had good rain conduct.anta rosa three quarters, la honda's had a half inch nap almost a half inch officially third of an inch in san francisco. there are higher amounts elsewhere, and oakland almost a third of an inch at the elbows up to 47 mph that mirrors what's going on the santa cruz mountains for some 32 oakland hills, ben lomond, 30 but not far away. you can find stronger than that, not tamil passes, just not had much of a breeze yet. but you can see there is a back edge to this. so is that roars through here? that's why we're getting some of the heavier rainfall rates and that's what's moving over is for another hour. but then after that, it will probably be more wind than rain. as that goes through not too far away from the santa cruz mountains as well. and you can see there is a back as this system is aligning itself more north to south and it was west east, but because we've had so much rain, flood watches out street flooding excessive rainfall, especially now. that we're seeing the rainfall rates

davenport's close at a quarter of an inch in menlo park picked up 12 100 the most though i do believe drumroll, please was casa dero. three quarters of an inch up in the russian river, and there it is. napa 39 100 st alina was in their napa airport close over a third. santa rosa. just shy petaluma. 28 100, nevada 1000.27 in yonville picked up a quarter of an inch san francisco observer michael polanski also picked up 0.28 officially 1.21. it's done. you know those low snow levels where you can say goodbye to those after today because it's going to get much warmer. still, some rain moving through parts of contra costa can it looks like it's done in solano over here. steve towards antioch, discovery bay. still some activity there and then also south, but we are pretty much i think on the back edge a lot of this for about another hour, then we'll be done. but it was some pretty good rain there. moving through santa cruz mountains, santa cruz, san jose and points east, but it looks like we're rounding third and heading for home on this. fifties on the temps. this will be probably it for t

. >> nbc's vaughn hillyard is in davenport, iowa.r republican florida congressman david jolly. vaughn, what are we expecting from the former president tonight? >> reporter: right these realities are running parallel to one another. michael cohen is going to appear in front of that grand jury for the first time since it was impanelled by alvin bragg in january. yet, donald trump is coming and making his first iowa stop of this presidential run here today in davenport, iowa folks are already gathering here the idea behind his event is to promote his education policy proposal he's calling for the elimination of federal funding to schools that, in his words, promote gender ideology and critical race theory. he's calling for the end of teacher tenure for k-12 teachers he's calling for principals at public schools to be elected by parents. this is part of what he outlines as his education policy. of course, to note, this is not one of his traditional mega rallies. the question is does he attempt to address these investigations into him at

>> reporter: he's going to be addressing a crowd here in davenport iowa at 7:00 p.m.focus on his policy proposals around education, yet, at the same time, we are approaching what we expect to be the conclusion of multiple campaigns or multiple investigative inquiries into him, particularly one of the manhattan district attorney's office related to the hush money payments in which donald trump transferred $130,000 to michael cohen who then transferred that money over to stormy daniels to essentially silence her allegation that she had had a sexual affair with donald trump. now, he has denied having that relationship with stormy daniels, but the manhattan district attorney's office in just about two hours from now is set to bring forward michael cohen, the former fixer and lawyer to donald trump to go testify before that grand jury that was impanelled earlier this year to investigate that hush money payment, and then ultimately, what could come would be potentially an indictment of donald trump of course this would ultimately be up to a grand jury whether to allow the c

and it culminated with a fiery speech in front of a packed house in davenport, where trump described 2024 as the, quote, final battle to save the country. >> every step of the way we will be opposed by the corrupt warmongers and neocons and globalist and communists and all the other menacing forces that have been trying to take us down with hoaxes and witch-hunts and they have been trying to do anything they can to stop us >> together we will end the era of weaponized government forever. we will end woke we will crush the deep state we will save our economy we will defend our farmers we will evict joe biden from the white house. and we will make america great again. >> i want to bring in nbc's vaughn hillyard in davenport, at the speech last night. kimberly atkins store, and brendan bucks. kimberly and brendan are msnbc political analysts so, brendan, if trump's first few campaign stops were considered a little bit sleepy, this seemed like vintage trump did we learn anything new, though, about him or his campaign or how he intends to run it >> he wasn't going to stay on the sidelines

dasha burns is tracking this for us from davenport, iowa.t and how people feel about it? >> reporter: well, lindsey, you'll hear me switching between my indoor voice and my rally voice here as the governor is addressing this crowd here in davenport, iowa, right now. his debut in the hawkeye state. it's an energetic crowd, a full house. you can hear the crowd clapping behind me as desantis has made this stop part of his book tour and memoir that's largely a playbook of florida policies that he's been using to sort of emphasize his message. you'll hear him touting throughout the day what he sees as florida's biggest successes and how those can apply to iowa and also nationally. he's joined on stage by iowa governor kim reynolds, the two have complimented each other on the way that they've addressed covid. they've really implemented similar policies in both of these states, and right now he's speaking to the crowd more as like a speech style event at the moment, but there are chairs set up. they're going to do a little bit of a fireside chat sh

we saw him do a little bit of that after the event in davenport. we'll see how he's received in des moines next. >> as someone who has heard more than a few of them as you have had, that sounded like the start of a stump speech. dasha burns, thank you very much for that. >>> the strange tail of congressman george santos keeps getting stranger. now, offering to cosponsor a new bill that is aimed at him. nbc congressional correspondent julie tsirkin is following this. what is it all about? >> let me say first, i think if george santos added professional troll to his resume, no one would combat that assessment because, look, he's signing on to this piece of legislation launched by congressman anthony deesposito, the first to call for san santos's resignation. that bill would prevent anyone convicted of fraud or other crimes to profit after leaving congress and this bill was also signed on by three other republican new york freshmen. here's what santos said this morning of why he wants to sign on to this bill so badly. >> i think this is a great bill.

creating, you, know an excuse structure for that >> well, former president trum is going to be in davenport, iowa, delivering remarks o what he is calling his america first education policy this is after rhonda sanders made education policy a to agenda item in the state o florida. and something that he also emphasized in visits to iowa and nevada does trump's focus on educatio in iowa. is that a sign that he see desantis as his principa threat in the republican primary? >> you know, not only does donald trump see desantis as the principal threat but i think everybody in the republican party looks at that now that way, you have to se the polling to see tha desantis's distinguished himself as the clear alternative to trump at this point. it is still very early in th process. and that can change. desantis is touring. and maybe he has trouble wit the retail politics once h gets out into other states once people start looking, you know, more on his record education is a big issue her in iowa. the governor can kim reynold pushed her plan for you know basically universal school choice as she calls

>> reporter: he spoke for nearly two hours inside of a theater in front of 2500 people here in davenportexact same city where ron desantis was just three days prior and this was a crowd that was enthusiastically receptive of the former president on what was an otherwise cold and blustery day. kim reynolds, the governor here, welcomed donald trump on to the stage, saying he loves iowa and that he represented the state and the country well essentially an affirmation for him as he makes his way toward the ten-month stretch ahead of the iowa caucus. i want to let you hear from donald trump, when he did go for first time on the direct attack of the florida governor, ron desantis, here from the iowa stage on the campaign trail. take a listen. >> ron was a disciple of paul ryan, who is a rino loser, but ryan, paul ryan's a big reason that mitt romney, i'm not a big fan of mitt romney, lost his election and to be honest with you, ron reminds me a lot of mitt romney. so, i don't think you're going to be doing so well here but we're going to find out, but those are the facts. >> reporter: he also

dasha burns in davenport, thanks so much.s register. former president trump has the highest favorability rate among iowa republicans at 80%. these are candidates and potential candidates. governor desantis, though, right behind him at 74%, though with a lower unfavorable number. former south carolina governor nikki haley, who has done two tours of iowa so far, still the least known candidate with 40% still unsure about her. neck and neck there, jonathan lemire, in terms of favorability between former president trump and governor desantis. donald trump's favorability, people who say they'd definitely vote for him if he were the nominee, has slipped significantly over the last year, year and a half or so. what to you see at first blush in those numbers? >> this poll is probably the best we've seen for governor desantis in a couple weeks now. it does feel like trump has some momentum and, of course, we put the caveat, it is very, very, very, very early. we don't need to be -- so we take these numbers appropriately with a measure

so, donald trump is in davenport today. desantis was there on friday.sing a more disciplined campaign from an organizational standpoint. i've got to say, desantis is looking very strong. >> he's making two very smart moves. following the move which is stay focused on your message. don't engage with president trump. don't engage with others. just stay focused on your message. second thing is being a good governor beshear to billion-dollar tax cuts. going after reform this year. putting more funding in the environment with the everglades, making sure the border is protected. two smart moves. stay focused on your own mes message. be a good governor. >> john: in terms of focus, desantis has asked at every turn if he is going to be running. he was on "saturday morning futures" with maria bartiromo. what is the indication? here's what he said. >> first indication that we've got a great book that people are buying. a lot of interest. governor kim reynolds is a friend of mine. >> john: a lot of people are saying that kim reynolds could be his running mate, but

>> i saw him in davenport, iowa, and des moines, iowa, a few weeks ago.ike a republican convention, it's like where somebody you're interested in hearing from. it wasn't like trump. it wasn't people chanting. it wasn't, you know, people screaming that they love him. i think republicans are willing to give an alternative a chance. but ron desantis is far from meeting the bar of being a true alternative to trump right now. he's got a lot of work to do to get there. >> he certainly received favorable media coverage on the right, but you're certainly correct there. lastly, let's say for sake of argument this indictment does come down, today or next week or whatever it might be, what's your read on how that will actually impact the potential republican primary field in terms of the polls, but also whether other folks decide to jump in or not? >> it's a great question. it's fun to sit here and try to project what will happen, and everybody's got a view on that. my suspicion is that's going to help donald trump a lot. and that's the suspicion of a lot of republi

>> wolf, he's scheduled to be given an enindication theme speech in davenport on the eastern side ofip back in 2024. i think all of us would be surprised if he focuses remarks solely on education but i do not think necessarily that he's going to dwell on january 6th or his former vice president to a rally of voters he's trying to win over. trump is very much i'm told now in the arm twisting mode trying to sell supporters and convince them to stay with him and support his candidacy. it will be interesting to see what he says this evening but he at least is not expected to dwell on the past. he is trying to look forward at least in some respects at these campaign rallies. it's far different what he said to an interviewer on social media or reporters to what he may say. what i heard, they want to see the former president move forward. have a forward-looking message. he has heard that and had many phone cows with supporters in iowa over the last couple of weeks and said they want to sort of see his ideas for winning. tonight is a good test to see if he can look forward or still so distra

sunday night, you can see the bayshore, davenport, some showers, and then more rain through early monday. it's not a lot, but it's enough that you may need your wipers. it will be damped out there and cold. upper elevations snow monday night. and moderate rain keeping us going through your tuesday. we are still cool and still have showers lined up on shore. taking u afternoon, picking up another 10th to 2/10, maybe half an inch in spot. through the next weekend, the temperature slowly go up, but that could be because of an atmospheric river. you weren't supposed to see that yet. not confident we are going to see a whole lot of rain, but confident we are not going to get out of this pattern anytime soon. in the accuweather 7-day forecast, may be a midweek break, but it is going to be cold in the morning and at the end of the week. resolution forecast models come in before we can really believe it. it's five days out. well, we will settle in for rain. that is what we have my wife's name is joy. we've been married 45 years. i'm taking a two-year business course. i've been studying a lot. i'

desantis spoke to chris yesterday in des moines and davenport in an interview fox news bryant which is going to air tonight at 8:00 p.m. he answered this. folks worried about being find your governor get on a candidate yet? once you have a record of achievement, people can call you a name but that is not going to trump the achievement. we have built an astounding record of achievement. the best is yet to come. >> those achievements as he calls and prompted democrats to label desantis as extremists we heard that from the white house yesterday. today at desantis continues promoting his memoir the stop in nevada, arthel. folks thank you alexander half. want to let everybody know you can catch more of brian's interview with governor desantis on "one nation". that is tonight at 8:00 p.m. eastern right fox news channel. thank you. >> a podcast or fearing for her life asked for an order of protection against a man she said was stalking her and her husband. a few days later they are shot dead. more on this chilling story straight ahead. together we support immune function. supply fuel for immu

there are also many waiting in line right now in davenport who are eager to support the former presidentbut there is a sense of fatigue that hangs over virtually every conversation with republicans both in iowa and new hampshire, early states, and acrass the country they are ready to turn the page because they're ready to win back the white house. however, someone has to defeat president trump. he's not going to be defeated by himself, and that of course brings the challenge. >> so, ron, who are the potential alternatives iowans have their eyes on? nikki haley was there and we saw governor ron desantis who has not officially announce but speculation he will in the coming months. what does that signal to you? >> the question about the iowa caucus is whether it is still this local grass roots -- remember the old "saturday night live" skit teddy kennedy folding the laundry back in 1978. and if it's the latter as i think it increasingly seems to be then clearly ron desantis is far above any of the other poenls rivals to donald trump. but even he faces the kind of rubix cube. donald trump did

trump continued to call on desantis while on stage last night in davenport, iowa that's one of the cities the florida governor visited last week during his book tour. the former president used nicknames for desantis and rattled off claims about his voting record while he was a member of congress >> okay, so remember this ron desanctus -- ron desanctus strongly opposed and we don't even know if he's running. but i might as well tell you, i would say he was fine on ethanol, don't worry about it. he strongly opposed ethanol and fought against it at every turn, and he's going to do that again because people that come out early for something, that's where they go, that's where it is he may do something politically but he was very, very bad on ethanol. he fought it all the way and also fought against social security he wanted to decimate it and voted against it three times that's a bad one a lot of people don't know that, but i think they've been finding out over the last four weeks one of the reasons we're zooming in the polls, perhaps that's one and really based on what we've done, i think an
