and as we heard from paige, jason carter continues, his eldest grandson, the error of his legacy. o me, this entire service has been a reminder of washington finally giving jimmy carter and the work he has done the respect he has so long deserved. as we heard over and over again, washington and jimmy carter never saw eye to eye. he did not warm to the ways of d.c. which is why this was such a unique moment, but it's also a georgia moment today, right? we heard from a funeral, from jason carter, from stuart eizenstat. of course, his remains will return to his beloved hometown and that is a reminder that georgia is where he made that legacy and that is where he will remain. >> five minutes until the end of show. and joining me now is the one and only chris matthews, former speech writer and msnbc host of course joining us now. >> it is >> it is an honor to be part of history and to witness part of it but you were inside witnessing it firsthand, so tell me about it. >> it was so great to hear held the chief when we walked in because that was not something carter wanted to play. he did

this was not about a man who was the commander in chief at jason carter, who's also the chair of the board of trustees of the carter center. most of his remarks were about the workers and the people who have worked on behalf of the priorities of the carters and worked at the carter center. his message was of gratitude for those who he said, are the real keepers of the carter's legacy. so this was not about memorializing or eulogizing a former president. this was about saying goodbye and thank you to a man and thanking those who, over the years, have supported his vision. >> and they certainly came through with the music, the words, and the entire moment was so powerful, so beautiful. in memory of this late president of the united states, victor. so walk us through what happens next. >> so what happens next as we see the guard of honor posted around the catafalque where the former president will be until tuesday morning, we're seeing some people who are now coming through to pay their respects. we're told that at 7:00, this room, this is the lobby of the carter center. the chairs will

"i can give my life for peace." the carter center built where sherman witnessed the burning of atlanta. i just told you carter wouldn't sing the song at the naval academy about the burning of atlanta. it took off. it does election monitoring. combating anything from guinea worm, river blindness, on and on. they called it parachuting for peace. carter would go in and visit people around the world, unsavory leaders. they

>> what nta great tribute from jason carter. and i've known jason carter since i was in college. and worked with his wife kate. and something jason said, was that jimmy carter was a man of the people, but also regular guy. and i think that's what we heard from jason's tributes. that of course, he was an extraordinary person who had a legacy. but also a father, grandfather, a dad. someone, as jason said, who would answer the door in '70s short-shorts and crocs and lined his fridge with family members, who had a rack to dry ziplock bags because he had sort of that still great depression upbringing. and i loved when jason called him the first millennial, and also the father of the craft brew industry. >> yeah. the imagery of the zip lock bags, hanging to dry out, so they could be reused. the juxtaposition of the powerful and the everyday, but elevating the everyday in only the way that someone who has so much love and is surrounded by so much love can have. andrea mitchell, greg bluestein, thank you all so much as we leave andrews, and jimmy carter makes his place back to the place h

but but, wolf, you know, hearing from jason carter talking about, you know, his his southern grandpaand letting ziploc bags drive by the refrigerator. but it was the words of gerald ford that i thought were so amazing to hear. i mean, he wrote that eulogy. he passed away 18 years ago. and so to hear his words read by his son, steven ford was just it was really something. >> it was really moving. i know you're going to be speaking to steven ford at some point in getting his thoughts, and i'm looking forward to that as well. casey, what what when you saw this really moving funeral unfold, what was going through your mind? >> yeah. well, you know, for jimmy carter and for joe biden in many ways, this is something of a generational conclusion to the way politics used to be done here in in this country. and just even when you reflected on what it was like to have all of the current living presidents together, it really in many ways underscored that because there are realities around those relationships that haven't existed in the recent in american history, for example, the greeting of mi

jason carter, jimmy carter's grandson. >> he was the president for four years.georgia for four years. and for the other 92 years of his life, he was just a citizen. and he considered that to be a high title. >> reporter: jason carter will give one of the eulogies at next day's state funeral. president biden is expected to deliver another. >> that was mark strassmann in plains, georgia. plains, georgia. we'll be right back.

thank you so much. >> jason carter in tribute to the employees of the carter center. now we will hear the scripture reading by tony. >> usually every saturday i make the pilgrimage down to plains, georgia. sitting beside president carter in the compound . you walk in the room he is wrapped in a blanket that has psalms 23 on it create one of his favorite psalms. the lord is my shepherd, there's nothing i lack. he lets me lie down in green pastures. he leads me beside quiet waters, he renews my life. he leads me along the right path for his namesake. even when i go through the darkest valleys, i fear no danger, for you are with me, your rod and your staff, they comfort me. you prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies, you anoint my head with oil, my cup overflows only goodness and faithful love will pursue me all the days of my life and i will dwell in the house of the lord as long as i live. you can use your spiritual imagination, for almost 2 years , our friend, number 39, president carter, pop pop, dad, wrapped in a blanket says psalms 23. >> that was

that was jason carter, the grandson ofjimmy carter speaking there. we will bring you some of the sounds now and it seems there in georgia outside of the carter family home. quiet, sombre scene there. this is thejimmy carter national historic park, expecting the motorcade carrying the 39th president of the us to arrive there, retracing his boyhood steps, coming to the family farm where he was born and raised, he was born back in 1924, raised, he was born back in 192a, nothing to be 100 years of age. and we are expecting the rangers and groundskeepers there, those who take care of this site, which is now a national historic park, to honour the man who they essentially worked for and memorialise. you'll hear a bell rung 39 times. we will definitely bring you that moment when that happens. we have a couple of guests you. i want to bring them back in. but apologies if you have to interact, we want to make sure we don't miss that moment. amber ross, robert strong. amber, as we see this gathering here of park rangers, it is an interesting site, thejimmy car

chip carter, one of the other carter's sons, and jason carter, the grandson, will be speaking at the service here later. but throughout the day, we've seen one chapter after another of this president's long life here. but this is his service, his legacy unfolding. yes. frustration swept him into the white house, as you said, through watergate and the vietnam war, frustration with the economy swept him out. that was only one chapter of his life longer. one was actually here, his post-presidency at the carter center. >> what's also remarkable is as the president's motorcade makes its way to the capitol, that the statue of a former governor who then became president at the capitol is not of him in a coat and tie as as a formal appearance of the former governor and president. he's in khakis and a casual shirt, their hands open as the sculptor says, every man, an ordinary person. >> and he thought that was he was stepping into his most important role of all when he left the presidency. that was to the role of being a citizen. and so that was also jimmy carter. of course, he left plains to

there was laughter in the national cathedral has jimmy carter's son jason recalled how carter struggled uses his cell phone at first. >> he said, what are you doing? i said, i'm not doing anything, you called me. he said, i didn't call you, i'm taking a picture. >> david: jason carter saying his grandfather was ready to reunite with rosalynn, his beloved wife of 77 years. their final resting place, plains, georgia. >>> when we come back here on the broadcast tonight, prince william and the new and moving image of kate tonight, and right here at home, how you can help in california. can keep coming back. start to break away from uc with tremfya... with rapid relief at 4 weeks. tremfya blocks a key source of inflammation. at one year, many people experienced remission... and some saw 100% visible healing of their intestinal lining. serious allergic reactions and increased risk of infections may occur. before treatment, your doctor should check you for infections and tb. tell your doctor if you have an infection, flu-like symptoms or if you need a vaccine. healing is possible with tremfya.

but i'm sure that jason carter, jimmy carter's grandson who's at the carter center, he's chair of the board of the carter center, which does all of that enormously important work all over the world. i'm sure that he's there. and jimmy carter has had three sons. jimmy and rosalynn carter had three sons. jack carter, chip carter, and jeff carter. and then 13 years later they had amy carter, who i think is probably the best remembered of them. she teaches art in atlanta now. >> well, she grew up in the white house. she had a lot of focus on her. >> she did. >> as a young girl. >> so all of them are there and very much part of these commemorations of his life. and be there in washington as well as many other relatives in this extraordinary georgia family. >> absolutely. it would seem some of these dignitaries, the georgia governor brian kemp, lupt governor burt jones, mayor andre dickens and the georgia state legislators, you saw some of them getting into what looked like a large limousine as well. they are probably joining this particular procession now as they make their way to the cart

jason carter is the chair of the board of the carter center.e will, i think will be governor of georgia sunday. he lost narrowly in 2014, and what his success and his drive and ability to carry on his grandfather's mission indicates there is hope with this younger generation, and i felt this when i went to the rotunda last night, and people were waiting for five hours to see jimmy carter lying in state. many of them young, born after his presidency, but inspired by his example. and so, we can do better, and we can be better. that was the message out of this moving and evocative funeral, and i think, inspiring message as we tried to deal with this very rocky road ahead. >> yeah, it's always strange and sometimes awkward and kind of interesting in a weird way when you have all the presidents together. donald trump is sitting next to barack obama and there's a moment where he said something and obama cracked up, whether genuinely are out of politeness, we don't know. it is hard to hear the tributes to the fundamental character traits of jimmy cart

jason carter, the grandson, told me he could not count the number of times he walked into the office to find jimmy and rosalynn carter, his grandparents, sitting in the rocking chair side by side just chatting. another illustration of how even when they weren't together, they were not far out of mind. if jimmy carter's office if you sat in the chair and looked straight across, there is a picture of rosalynn carter. if you go to her office and sit in her chair, there's a portrait of jimmy carter on the far wall. 77 years, stand companions, surely mutually inspiring to each other and as jason carter said, one of the things he celebrates most about his grandparents is they had a true love story. >> as we behold the images as this begins six this begins the six-day national process of saying farewell to our 39th president, ihe is worth pointing out that the procedures have intense at intentionality to them. the planning began in 1986. it began with the secret service detail for former president carter. that's first images we saw. there is a reason. the bond reporter nicole skanga recently

and so jason carter was just telling me that, you know, he feels all the love and the support of the been coming out here. and of course, we're going to continue to see that as the former president makes his final journey to washington, d.c. >> just thinking jonathan, you have studied so much jimmy carter, his legacy, his work. you know, priya when she talks about four decades of service after the white house, he was only in the white house for four years. what stands out to you, jonathan, as being maybe the basic pillars of that legacy of service? >> well, i think that he was a flawed politician but a visionary american leader. so i first got interested in writing a book about him when i learned that he was talking about global warming in the 1970s before anybody anywhere in the world in any kind of leadership position was doing so. and if he had been reelected, he wanted electric cars by the mid-1980s. he was basically 30 years ahead of his time on that issue. but achieved a lot on the environment and on other issues. so it really surprised me that i had, and i think a lot of other

held and it was incredibly emotional and we heard both from former president carter's grandson, jason carter he was an amazing man. and he was held up and propped up and soothed by an amazing woman. the two of them together changed the world. >> the remains will stay here at the carter center until tuesday morning at 6:00 a.m., at which point it will be flown to washington, d.c., where there will be another processional. the motorcade will go by the navy memorial and then be transferred to a horse-drawn carriage and then taken to the capital rotunda, where the remains will lie in state until thursday, which is when the national funeral services are to take place. of course, president joe biden has declared that a day of mourning and he is expected to deliver a eulogy at those events. we are expecting president- elect trump to be in attendance and ultimately former president carter's remains will come right back here to georgia, where he will be buried in plains, his hometown, alongside his beloved wife, roselyn. charles? >> that was nbc's priya -- priya sridhar. in our of aymen right after t

and chip carter and jason carter, the late president's son and grandson, who were members of the carter center's board here, they will be speaking as well as the navy hymn, of course, recognizing the service of jimmy carter in the navy. of course, he left plains, georgia, to go be a naval engineer. that is a key part of his legacy as well, before returning to plains, georgia. so throughout the day, certainly one of history and legacy. but here at the carter center, there is no question this represents the unfinished work. of course, his time in the white house was cut short, uh, in his eyes. he was elected under a wave of discontent in the country in the era of watergate and the vietnam war, but also was sent on his way after just four years in the white house, when ronald reagan soundly defeated him in 1980. but it was then one year later where jimmy and rosalynn carter founded the carter center, and that would indeed be their life's work through democracy. humanitarian work around the globe. so that is something that will be marked here as well, fredricka. so certainly a day of histor

of the united states but working on better economic and human rights policies, and i remember jason carter, his grandson, being in a sports bar watching the olympics and president carter coming in and talking about his hope for diplomacy and peace and what our obligation as americans was to the rest of the world. he was truly one-of-a-kind and someone who i really looked to for inspiration about what public service can be at its best. >> no doubt about it, i have the same experience in meeting him the few times where i did, that he really gave a presence of a great man. but switching gears to the 119th congress, officially underway this evening after mike johnson's narrow reelection as speaker yesterday. republicans have been holding daylong strategy sessions today, at fort mcnair, trying to come up with a plan for budget reconciliation, which will be a challenge, given their slim majority. now what are you expecting from this upcoming session? >> well, it should be very obvious what they want to do. they want to give tax breaks to the very very wealthy. they want to give $4 trillion of ta

jason carter, the grandson of jimmy carter said it best in a tweet. said that americans are telling democrats what they want and democrats are telling them they're wrong. i think jason was spot on with that and something we have to stop telling people what we want to tell them and we have to hear what people are saying and concerned about and address those issues. the one thing we do know wall street will always win. it is about who will be a champion for main street. that's the opportunity we have. >> harris: cassie for a second i want to ask you to put on your investigative hat. what actually broke down in the democratic party such that they became the party of the elite, rich, only focused on themselves and celebrities? to fred's point they don't see the middle class having a voice for the lower class that they have to listen to. >> well, it didn't happen overnight. this is 20 years of democrats taking their base for granted. comments like joe biden saying if you don't vote for me or for democrats you ain't black and people saying wait a minute. if

i spent a fair amount of time there with two of his grandchildren, jason carter, who is well known asigure in georgia, and joshua carter, another grandchild. and joshua carter gave the closing speech of what he thought his grandfather would say were he there to speak about the state of u.s. democracy in elections, having surveyed this process around the world. this event was four or five days after the latest presidential elections. he said that he thought that his grandfather would have the long-term faith in matters of the heart and spirit and in american democracy. he always expressed but also he would be severely cautionary about the ways american democracy had become controlled by money after citizens united, according to jimmy carter, according to his grandson, was the worst decision in modern supreme court history, through gerrymandering, which made things polarized, through disinformation, via social media and other means. so jimmy carter had lost none of his edge in assessing his own country. a tone very much like when he first ran for president, 1976, something is broken in

members, there's some people from the carter center, the chair of the board of the carter center is jason carter, jimmy's grandson, who is a peace corps veteran and former candidate for governor of georgia. very impressive heir to carter's responsibilities at the carter center. and i think the other thing to keep in mind about the carter's circle, when jimmy and rosalyn carter celebrate their 75th wedding anniversary, my wife emily, and i went to plains and we were expecting it to be like one of these big clinton or obama parties jammed with celebrities. garth brooks was there. nancy pelosi came. the clintons came to the shock of everybody, and everybody else were friends, normal people, and normal occupations, were friends of theirs from plains, georgia. this tells you something about them. >> a testament to who he was and what he valued. what we're watching right now is the beginning of the funeral procession. this is where he -- his casket will be taken from this hearse and placed on a horse-drawn carriage where it will be brought to the capitol where it will then lie -- he will lie in state

his grandson, jason carter, honoring the work of the organization his grandparents started. >> while we mourn my grandfather's passing, i know in my heart and you all do, that his legacy will live on not only because of the millions of people that he touched across the globe, but very specifically because of your spirit and your knowledge and the work and the track record that you do every day. >> the public now visiting the carter center to pay their respects to the 39th president of the united states. hundreds lined the route on saturday as his funeral procession traveled from plains to atlanta. some saying they felt obligated to pay their respects. >> president carter, you know, he did a great job while he was president and stuff. so i just wanted to be here and pay my respects. >> on tuesday, the former president will travel to washington. there will be a service at the u.s. capitol that afternoon. the late president will then lie in state in the capitol rotunda, giving the public another opportunity to pay their respects. on thursday morning, dignitaries will gather at washingto

and i and i'll and i'll share something that jason carter told me last week that he had talked with his grandfather in the last few weeks, and we know that rosalynn went first in 2023, and there were a lot of us who, knowing how close they were, were concerned about him going soon after. and he said that when he talked to his grandfather, his grandfather told him, you know, it was time. i want to see rosalynn. i want to see my wife. >> i want to see rosalynn. what a remarkable thing. what a remarkable love story between the two of them. i want to go back to our terry moran. and terry, when you think about jimmy carter and his legacy, what will be at the top of your mind? >> well, his his presidency, but more his post-presidency, right. that amazing adventure that, as mary was saying, is just an inspiration. knocked down, defeated, humiliated. he got back up. he kept keeping on because and i think this is what we're celebrating about him today. he was so grounded that this this time, this farewell to plains, the first chapter in the long farewell to our 39th president is, is we recognize
