there's the family of john davis, jordan davis, all part of the club that no parent wants to be a part of. they are saying goodbye to this young man. >> thank you very much for your excellent reporting. i want to bring in criminal defense and civil rights attorney john burrs. he handled many cases including the rodney king civil suit and shooting of oscar grant. thank you for joining us. you were part of the investigation and the suits regarding oscar grant and here one of his relatives there today. we're learning, as we witness this young man's funeral. we're learning more about the grand jury. after today i think will be the lead conversation. there are 12 jurors, three african-americans, nine caucasians. the clerk's office said the african-american makeup of is 18 to 20% of the st. louis county. not just ferguson population. and the grand jury they point out, is closer to 25% african-american. so we're now at least getting a picture of this grand jury even though you have some officials in that town who still insist this case is not about race. >> my feeling is whenever you have a p

[applause] jordan, if obama's action gives coyotes leeway to lie, what makes you think that the house bill is going to stop them? it's ridiculous. >> first of all, john, down here the term coyote is considered offensive. they prefer pediatric immigration consultant. >> jon: where are you, jordan? >> somewhere between chihuaha and austin. i'm traveling with the consultants as they emigrate some pediatrics. they're worried if the ambiguity is taken out of the law this could be their last run. >> look, look, look, obama's 2012 order, which is spodedly enabling these immigration coyotes to lie, it clearly applied only the children who entered before 2007 and were present physically still in 2012. so there is no ambiguity where. is the ambiguity. >> present physically 2012 of what, 2012 of what, jon? what are these terms. they could be anything. >> how could it be clearer? >> it could be clearer. you could bold it, underline it, bigger font. if you want to stop the border crisis, there are tools available. do diagrams of how the follow the law like ikea. clarify it. you need clarify the law and the coyotes will follow it. >> jon: why? why would changing t

. >> speaking to our correspondent, rosslyn jordan in washington d.c., and any reaction from john kerry, roz? >> we have just gotten reaction from the secretary of state, it's a written statement. and let me read just a part of it for you, because it's a bit long. the united states condemns in the strongest possible terms today's attack, which lead to the killing of two israeli soldiers and the abduction of another. it was an outrageous violation of the ceasefire and the assurances given to the united nations and the united states. the secretary of state, john kerry, releasing the statement in the past minute or so, and basically blaming hamas for this ceasefire. the statement does go on to say, however, that the u.s. is looking for an urgent recommitment to the ceasefire, and he's not saying, at least in the u.s.' view at the moment, that the ceasefire is dead, but may be legal, and may not match the facts on the ground. >> rosie, you had a conversation with james a few minutes ago, and let's get a view from your side of the atlantic. would would the u.s. have left that wording in the

john, michaela, really, myself, and photo journalist jordan gazaro is here. we were caught in the middle of this thing. it started as a peaceful rally and march. it degenerated into outrage, into violence, people throwing rocks and bottles. we saw fire. it was a very kay hottic scene, people who came into the situation really to take advantage of it. >> george, i know you said that there were a lot of people that were there. it started out peacefully. that's the thing i wonder about too. i wonder if you can address that. i know there were community members that came down this morning to try and clean up, to try and help sort of say, look, this isn't all of us that feel this way. we know that something needs to be done. we know that something wrong happened here but we don't want this to be the note our community is remembered for. >> and right. and some of those people, one gentleman that i spoke with earlier, a businessman, he owns a business down the street, he told me look, i'm embarrassed by this. i'm embarrassed by what happened because it dishonors the

they will be at a party later this evening hosted by the former democratic adviser vernon jordan. johnld times. >> this is a serious situation in iraq. more advisors going in, in addition to the air strikes and humanitarian airlift strikes. this is a drip, drip, classic phrase mission creep. white house advisors worried about this at all? >> i asked ben rhodes about that and he said no this is not mission creep, these advisors going in, 130 or so, they are advising the iraqis on how best to deal with that humanitarian situation. as ben rhodes told me they are not going in a combat role. >> jim acosta, thanks so much. >>> in the middle east the cease-fire in gaza ends in less than 12 hours. this morning the associated press is reporting a plan is on the table to bring an to end the month long conflict between israel and hamas. egypt calling israel to ease parts of its blockade on gaza with the border opened gradually. no word yet whether the egyptian proposal will be accepted. >>> canada will provide up to 1,000 doses of an experimental ebola vaccine to help fight the outbreak in africa

jordan. this is a regional problem right now. the secretary of state johnself noted today that this could easily spread and become a real national security threat to the united states. >> ed henry, thank you very much. well, the pentagon call these air strikes in iraq targets of opportunitiment what will they accomplish in the long run? former undersecretary for defense says not much. why not? >> well, really, we're just going on here to do a couple of pinprick strikes. you're talking about one air strike that took out one artillery piece. that doesn't change anything. that may change for five minutes the situation of those poor people on top of the mountain, but then on the other hand you have hundreds of women being taken hostage by these barbarians. josh earnest can talk about the strategy is related to -- however long he likes to but it's not a strategy and not related to anything in the real world. we have to find a strategy. that's choices are, number one, conduct an air strategy to evacuate the americans in irbil and cover their withdrawal, that's on

jordan. the secretary of state has been talking about the collapse of this truce. what has he said? >> well, one thing that john kerry did not say in this particular statement, adrian was that the ceasefire is considered dead. what he did say was that the international community really needs to step up to put pressure on hamas to honor its commitments under the terms of the ceasefire, which apparently took the better part of a week to negotiate. he also reiterated that the u.s. is standing by israel's efforts to try to recover the soldier who apparently was captured about 90 minutes after the ceasefire started at 5g on friday. this is hour, a very difficult situation for the u.s., because it seems every time that there is a moment where they might be able to get the warring parties to the negotiating table and try to get them to work out their differences, everything falls apart and then we're right back to square one. >> is the secretary of state willing to -- to -- to renegotiate this truce? or is it -- the one they have agreed on is the one that he's -- he's going to go with? what i'm trying to say is why di

jordans. chris jansing, thank you. for more, let's turn now to john stanton, buzzfeed's washington bureau chief. john, so my colleague at "the washington post," dana milbank whose headline goes something like the president vacations while world burns. should he not be on vacation? should the president not be on martha's vineyard at this time? >> i mean, you know, look, he obviously is able to be briefed on things and make decisions from martha's vineyard. so on a practical level, i'm not sure how much of a difference it makes. from an optics point of view, i do think it matters. i think people overseas look at that and think it's a little odd. certainly domestically, you know, americans always find it to be a little bit strange when president isn't back in washington when there's a major crisis going on. i mean, if we look at the katrina incident where president bush was very slow to react and these kind of things, the optics do matter for them. and it does have an impact ultimately on policy. when they start to have to deal with these kind of fires,

work that was done and we will have john from sf travel and a moment from (inaudible) who is a native of local two, and carroll represents the hotel council and fred jordan is the chair of the african american chamber of conference. >> before miller gets started i think that david chiu and i want to just say a few brief words. >> i just want to be brief and we will get started with the presentation, because i know that all of you are anxious to provide feedback with this hearing, and i want to thank, supervisor cohen for her leadership on this matter, this is definitely very important issue, and i know that there is a number of leaders here from san francisco, black chamber of commerce, and the folks from sftravel, and working together, and i think that we could make sure that the industry is opening its doors to the african americans for employment opportunities and other things that exist, all over. and thanks, for the leadership and i am looking forward to the presentation, and looking forward to the feedback on how we can work together to make this city more open and inclusive to the african american, and president chiu, would you like to say a few w

jordan, egypt? >> we are seeing a consolidation of power. much stronger in terms of an antiposition against hamas. but i think the issue going back to john kerry is that you have to speak to khatta. he is public appeal at home. he has to come down to egypt. i think the problem going back to this question is, kerry has not been astute to the fact that all these dynamics in the middle east are underway with regional power games and he is trying to meander his way through perception drives it. >> could the deal be moved forward in egypt more or less likely? >> much more likely. it is not just egypt. you understand. it is egypt, it is saudi arabia. cutter is the financeier of israel. >> does benjamin netanyahu save face with a benign intrusion of egypt? >> of course. he went against the radicals in that part of the world. and they are much close tore where we are. they are much closer to where egypt is. >> quickly. five seconds. >> egypt is very antihamas as is most of the countries you have mentioned. hamas is isolated. but at some point, their concerns are going to have to be dealt with. only two countries deal with them. cutter and turkey

jordan. they are very clear about their claims. >> thank you for being here. >> thank you john for having me. >> how the conflict is affecting the global oil market. we're following another breaking story, renewed fighting between israel and hamas. shortly after the three day ceasefire was over, rockets were fired. 50 rockets were launched this morning. two people in israel were injured. the response from israel was swift, air strikes into ogaza. at least one child was killed. andrew simmons has more from gaza city. >> gaza's skyline once again blighted by warfare after attempts to extend a 72 hour ceasefire failed in cairo. and then the grim familiar routine of the emergency response and tending to the injured. among the early casualties was a 12-year-old child who died after an israeli air strike. rockets have been fired at israel within seconds of the ceasefire expiring. some intercepted by the iron dome missile system. then, after israel's delegation pulled out of cairo its military was ordered to launch attacks. the stricken people of the gaza strip had seen it all before and with dread,

jordan, egypt and the palestinians? >> i think what we have seen is a consolidation of power in egypt. it is much stronger in terms of anti-position against hamas. the issue going back to john kerry is you have to speak to katah to some degree. they are the tap for hamas. if you want to cut off money to hamas they are necessary. it ultimately has to come down to egypt. the problem, going back to this question, is kerry hasn't been astute to the fact that he is trying to meanderer his way through. >> the fact the deal could be moved forward or cut in egypt more likely? less likely? >> much more likely. >> it is not just egypt. you have to understand it is saudi arabia and the uae. >> would israel say face if the deal were cut with a non- intrusion of egypt? >> of course. they are closer to where egypt is. >> egypt is very anti-hamas as is most of the countries you mentioned. hamas is isolated. at some point their concerns will have to be dealt with. only two countries deal with them. kerry has to open up to them or else you cannot speak to hamas. he is doing the right thing as a fair minded diplomat. >> kerry's problem is he doesn't understand the new realities of the middle

jordan and palestinian authority. and israel all has the same interest that hamas and the brotherhood should not gain. >> john? >> well, this is not how most people spend the 21st birthday. we'll tell you why the guy was thrown in jail accused of a major student high over the american city. and the doctor with the ebola virus treated in a hospital in atlanta. are we at risk of ebola outbreak here on u.s. soil? >>> a fox news alert. sad news that the former press secretary to president ronald reagan, james brady, has died. you might recall that brady was shot and seriously injured in the assassination attempt on president ronald reagan back in march of 1981. he fought for years afterward are on behalf of efforts to control guns. president reagan's press secretary, james brady, who had been in failing health for some time, has died now at the age of 73. >>> less than 24 hours from now, another ebola patient will be brought to the united states. dr. kent brantly is being treated at a special unit of atlanta's emory university hospital. his co-worker, nancy writebol, is due to arrive tomorrow. this ebola outbreak

jordan where the golan heights crosses. there have been quite a few hostage releases including a payment of ransoms. john kerry, secretary of state, in the united states issued this statement. "the united states reached tout two dozen countries asking for urgent help from anyone who could have tools, influence, or leverage to secure the release of theo and the release of any americans held hostage in syria ." and we know that a journalist working for "time" magazine is list on who is to be executed we and time is of the excess whether he could already have been executed. no video has appeared and i a not meaning to speculate because of the attacks the united states and air raids the united states has had on isis positions it will be difficult to communicate what, exactly, the situation is with any of the journalists that it is holding. >> we pray for all of these journalists. if you watch the tape, and i did because i didn't want to speak without knowing and report open it, it was tough to watch but after the death on the tape of james foley, you can see them march out and you could see 9 threat against

jordan live on capitol hill with the latest developments from iraq. richard, good morning. >> good morning. early today secretary of state john kerry said it's time for iraq's new government t gain the confidence of its citizens. things appear to be moving in that direction. prime minister nouri al maliki is not going down without a fight. maliki calling it a coup. he says the new president is violating iraq's constitution because he should have gotten maliki's approval before moving forward with this new government. we are still seeing some u.s. air strikes. yesterday there were four air strikes in a matter of four hours. the pentagon says it appears the air strikes have been effective in holding back those isis militants, that terror group, slowing down their progress. it's not clear exactly what kind of long-term solution the air strikes will have. president obama has offered to assist the iraqi government to stabilize offering political support and security support and the humanitarian aid that we have seen over the past couple of days. that food and water to those christian refugees stranded on top of the mountain fearin

jordan has the latest live from washington, richard. >> reporter: hi scott, good morning, earlier today, secretary of state john kerry said it is time forraq's new government to gain the confidence of its citizens. it looks like things are moving in that direction, but it will be a long, hard fight. iraqi christians rescued from certain death, but political turmoil continues to fuel isis terrorists bent on eliminating the religious minority. iraqi prime minister al maliki refuses to step aside, even though the country's new president named a replacement. >> the new iraqi leadership has a very difficult job. it has to regain the confidence of its citizens but telling them inclusively, but also by taking steps to demonstrate their resolve. >> reporter: thousands of christians are still on the mountain, starving and terrified. >> they will kill us. and our men, they will slaughter them just because we have christians. >> reporter: yesterday the u.s. launched four air strikes in four hours. those targeted attacks may not be enough. >> these strikes are unlikely to affect the capabilities or its operations in other areas of iraq and syria. >

. >> that was john kerry this morning talking about iraq, also momenting ago we learned president obama was speaking with king ab ddullah of jordanaft dropped two bombs on enemy forces outside of erbil this morning. this after the president announced last night he was giving the green light for a limited mission. joining me now live from the white house with reaction to this is nbc's luke russert. >> president obama was on the phone with the u.s. ally king abdullah of jordan. we haven't been provided context what the call was about. we should learn a lot more not only about the call to the king of jordan but the strike this morning that hit various components of isis. there's a white house briefing about 12:30 about an hour from now we'll get more information. the story is developing, betty, there's a lot of congressional resanction now from capitol hill starting to trickle out. house speaker john boehner saying he was supportive of the president's movement to launch the air strikes. he would like to see part of a large scale strategy what the idea is moving forward. a lot of congressional republicans feel this sort of movement b

john mccain. he supports the president's actions, but says mr. obama needs to go much further. >> isis continues to make gains in syria, destabilizing lebanon and jordan, even into turkey. nearing irbil, the capital of kurdistan. look at what has happened over the last few weeks since this crisis began while the president has continued to say this is an iraqi problem. this is an iraqi problem, but it's a united states problem, and it is a threat to our national security. and i say that with the full backing or the quotes from our director of national intelligence, our secretary of homeland security. the director of the fbi and even the attorney general of the united states. this is turning into as we had predicted for a long time a regional conflict which does pose a threat to the security of the united states of america and launching three strikes around a place where horrible humanitarian crisis is taking place. meanwhile, isis continues to make gains everywhere. yes, it's clearly very, very ineffective to say the least. >> it's been less than two days and three strikes. i don't know, i know you're traveling. you got a chance to hear the president's

jordan with something else at the live desk. >> barbara, here in washington the u.s./africa leader summit is under way. one of the first people to speak was secretary of state john kerry. he talked about the important relationship between african countries and the u.s. listen in. >> africa is a new center of global growth. since 2000, banking assets have more than doubled. the telecommunications market has doubled since 2004 alone. and we know that africa will have a larger workforce than india or china by 2040. >> kerry went on to specifically talk about south africa and how that region is exporting engines to the ford motor company. that in turn, he says, has helped to create at least 800 new jobs in the kansas city area. now here at the summit we have leaders from all across africa. the presidents of sierra leone and liberia are not attending because they're dealing with the ebola outbreak in their respective countries and to address the concern of ebola spreading here in the u.s., president obama said anyone coming from an area where ebola is prevalent, where there has been that crisis that is under way now, they are being screened at their home airports bef

jordan is live in washington with the u.s. response to the growing turmoil in baghdad, good morning, richard. >> reporter: hi laura, good morning. earlier today john kerry said it is time for iraq's new government to gain the confidence of its citizens. it looks like that is going to be a difficult challenge because prime minister al maliki is not going down with a fight. he has been replaced by the new president of the iraq, a new prime minister dez nant has been chosen, but maliki is claiming that the president is trying to plot a coup, that he went and violated the constitution by going forward, getting this new government installed, without getting his approval first. already the u.s. and iran are backing the new leadership there. the new president, and that new prime minister that has been selected to replace maliki, but maliki said he's not going anywhere. many u.s. allies want him out. we also saw more air strikes yesterday, about four in the matter of four hours. this has been effective in pushing back and slowing down the isis militants. . the u.s. has already promised to provide nothing further assistance in terms of security and humanit

jordan, and turkey would join the battle on militants. any indication that we're getting any closer to air strikes in syria? >> well, shep, there's certainly a lot of meetings around here. secretary of state john kerry had been on vacation for the month, now being pulled back from nantucket having a meeting with the president just one day after defense secretary chuck hagel who was here also behind closed doors with the president. those are indications at least that they're null l mulling their options especially in the wake of those surveillance -- the drones that you mention to try and find targets for possible air strikes. then if you read other tea leaves, the president speaking to the american legion today in charlotte, left the door wide open to expanding air strikes beyond iraq into syria. listen. >> we'll continue to take direct action where needed to protect our people and to defend our homeland. rooting out a cancel like isil won't be easy and it won't be quick. >> we should note that just because surveillance is being conducted it does not mean aird. number one military experts say you also need intelligence on the ground to pinpoint possible targets against isis and that's very har

john. >> one of the problems now that hamas delegation isn't actually from gaza. it's the ones that are in exile in various countries be it qatar or jordanoriginally meant a delegation coming specifically from gaza the leaders here because the cease-fire unravelled they can't travel there. >> reporter: this is a complicated conflict and one of the complications, it's what you mentioned. the leaders of hamas coming from qatar, even so they are and present -- will be presenting themselves as representatives of the palestinians in gaza. another complicating factor is egypt's role in this particular mediation, if, indeed, it happens. as you know the relationship between cairo and hamas has deteriorated greatly since november 2012. that's the last time hamas fought israel. back then it was the muslim brotherhood leader, mohamed morsi. now you have a man who ousted mohamed morsi and declared muslim brotherhood and hamas terrorist organizations. that certainly will not help when it comes to the role of egypt as a mediator. will they play the role of mediator or simply host this event. it's just not clear, john. >> thank you. so, miguel and chri
