sometimes called the 51st senator, he is a longtime friend of roy wilkins. >> i first met roy wilkins in the 1930s, at which time there were many horrible things happening in the united states. there were not many people who were standing up and talking out against such things as lynching and various forms of segregation and discrimination, but roy wilkins was out there in front at that time as a newspaper editor in kansas city, missouri. in the kansas city call. he later joined the naacp. but i would characterize him as a man of great courage, a lot of common sense, and a sense of destiny in knowing that he wanted to go to a certain place, he wanted to bring his people to a certain place. and he seemed to have a sense of certainty about doing what he was setting out to do. >> roy wilkins was born in st. louis, missouri, in 1901. his mother died when he was 5 years old and he and his brother and sister went to live with an aunt and uncle in st. paul, minnesota. he grew up in a community with only a handful of blacks. he attended mostly white public schools and spent his time mostly wi

[ applause ] >> thank you. let me get these out of the way. good morning. it's a pleasure and an honor for me to have this opportunity to meet with you this morning. the mission of global chinese connection, as i understand it, is to build relationships that will change the world. well, i'm here this morning to talk about one of those relationships, the ties between china and the united states. it's a subject dear to my heart, and i think many of us here would agree that it's a relationship that has the potential to change the world. i lived in chengdu, china, for seven years, so my earliest memories of china as a 3 and 4-year-old were of sitting in a dirt dugout and listening to bombs falling outside. now, if you beli

the president wants he has own roy coin and he got one. concerning that he wouldn't answer the question whether he shared information about the mueller report with the white house before he shared it with congress or the american people. >> what are you hearing from the white house? >> he talked about whether or not bill barr wouldn't say whether who not they had seen the report. they had told reporters we haven't given them the report. they just got a read out from bill barr ee's chief of staff. the white house said we haven't seen it either. they said no one in the west wing asked to see the report. when he wouldn't answer today, he said i'm not going say anything else. it raised the question of whether or not that's changed and whether or not the white house has seen it. we asked the white house. they haven't answered whether or not anything has changed. it did raise questions. the thinking is if they had not seen it, why shouldn't we have said the same today as they said before. >> hold on just a second. we might have missed a moment t

at the end of the day, what really will determine pricing is perceived roi by advertisers if the rois good, advertisers will keep spending or be willing to bid at this level or higher levels we do these pretty exhaustive surveys every month and there are two roi kings on the internet today one is google and one is facebook and advertisers see just as good a return on their dollars as they do on facebook as they do on google. and if that is true, people will be willing to bid these prices or higher because the returns are so much better than that they can get in other areas. so you will probably see this for a while. >> and larger concerns about privacy don't seem to really affect people's behavior, do they >> no, i don't think so. but -- sorry, one other negative here facebook did say more and more people are opting out of targeting. i'm not sure why people would want to get more junk mail rather than directed mail. i think that is the right analogy. but yeah, there are limits here to targeting and if you do that, it could negatively impact roi. haven't seen it in the survey yet. >>

the way they cleared the decks there so they could go after roy moore and trump, seemed to be overlyitical. the reason it's hard conversation for democrats to have now is they didn't have the conversation during al franken about what is the difference between what somebody like roy moore or harvey weinstein and what franken did. now with biden they are starting to have that conversation. it's hard one. i think it needs to be had. sg noon s . >> nancy pelosi said it's how people take the advance or the touching. it's not how you intend it. if he runs, he would have to change his whole style of campaigning. we'll have to leave it there. >>> power play. the how judiciary committee votes to approve subpoenas for the full mueller report. this is andrea mitchell reports only on msnbc. s andrea mitchell only on msnbc. discover. hi, what's this social security alert? it's a free alert if we find your social security number on the dark web. good, cuz i'm a little worried about my information getting out. why's that?

cohn, he got his roy cohn. even though barr doesn't really feel it like roy cohn. that's why he got halfway out and ran back to shore, wasn't going to wrestle that alligator. but he makes an outrageous claim that ray cohn would make, the spy willing claim, after we all know about carter page and the pfizer -- and we all know who the pfizer judges in. we know they're in four, five fisa judges that supported this. you can almost see in his mind how do i answer this question so trump doesn't tweet at me, so i keep my job but still not make a jack ass of myself for life. >> that's tough. >> that's tough. >> he better rethink it. >> in the beginning he was really making a fool of himself, humiliating himself, and then he started to clean it up a little built more at the end saying this is fine but i'm going to look into it. it's very interesting, very trumpian to, first of all, put out a summary and make conclusions that you know is doing the president's bidding, the type of summary that roy cohn would put out and t

what did you mean the president found his roy cohen? >> let's look at what happened in the two years of the trump presidency when most of the post watergate reforms have been eviscerated. if you are a president under the investigation, you can fire the one who is conducting the investigation and if they won't ignore the advice and intervene on your behalf, you can hire a new attorney general who has written about how he thinks the case against you is bogus and then that person can get confirmed by the senate of your party without requiring that that attorney general recuse himself and then in place, that attorney general can do what he was hired to do and make the obstruction of justice case go away and prevent the congress from seeing the results, the full results of that investigation. that's what i mean. that's what roy cohen would do and sadly, this is where we are two years into this presidency. >> what is your understanding? there is a fundamental dispute, a conflict. barr air gated to himself the role of screener for what congres

roy griffiths abused him repeatedly before he was 13.not alone. he would bath us and he would have us naked sitting watching the television. in return, i suppose, we would get treats and candy. kevin says his mother complained to lincoln diocese in 1969, when griffiths tried to abuse him on a school trip to scotland. but the diocese did not tell the police for another 45 years. should have been dealt with right away, and... the church should have instructed the police for him being a paedophile. and they didn't. they just. .. turned a blind eye and moved on. roy griffiths was convicted following an investigation by lincolnshire police. they became aware of him in 2015, after the diocese of lincoln handed them a list of names of concern. panorama can now reveal that dozens of names were on the list. there were 53 names on the first list. it was a surprise, to say the least, the number of names that were there. not all the names are related to alleged child abuse. we whittled it down to about 25 names, whereby we either knew that they had

he is the roy coen for donald trump. and the way he orchestrated rolling out the report and then misrepresenting it i think suggests that he is not here to make sure justice is done, he is here to make sure donald trump is protected. >> so are you for impeaching him at this time? >> i would -- i would certainly consider it. he is not going to resign. so that's just a nice way of saying he should go. the only way he would go is if we were to impeach him. >> but you're not quite there yet on that? >> no, but i mean that would be the means by which you would get him out. he is not the highest law enforcement officer of this country following the constitution and protecting the united states. >> one of the things he said that's causing a lot of in consternation is that there was no evidence of collusion in the report. obviously this word collusion -- it's a real word but made up because noits the legal word which is conspiracy of course. here is what he said. >> this special counsel found no collusion by any americans in ira

donald trump made clear what he wanted in an a.g., he wanted roy cohn. >> not quite roy cohn, a rather infamous character in new york. but he has someone who has the president's back. we know from our reporting, reporting here at nbc as well, that the president wanted his roy cohn, somebody to be loyal to him like he perceived eric holder was to president obama and like bobby kennedy was to his brother jack and he did not feel jeff sessions did that, in the president's jeff sessions kmieted the ultimate betrayal by choosing country over the president himself, which is not how that job is supposed to work but we know how the president views the idea of loyalty. it's a one-way street, he demands it and didn't get it from jeff sessions in that decision to recuse himself. barr wrote out that 18-page letter. wrote out his thoughts clearly of what he thought of the mueller probe, did not think the president could be interrogated or indicted. and mueller clearly was following justice department guidelines thinking about the indictment and in this case seemed to defer, perhaps, or at least kne

we looked into it and contacted father roy who you saw on the video and the bishop there and talk to them. they had an attorney at the time representing the diocese for lots of things who is trying to figure out how he could fight this. we said well under the religious freedom restoration act the government cannot take action that substantially burdens the exercise of religion. the building of the wall that would physically cut off this chapel on the south side of the wall for people who want to worship and pray there, people who go for services, people go for quiet contemplation, the annual palm sunday profession procession that they have from mission and the larger church, our lady of guadalupe on palm sunday, all these things would be impacted by the building of this enormous wall right by the chapel. even if there were a gate and the government had not promised to build a gate, but even if there were a gate are they going to be sitting there asking for people's papers? is it common go to the chapel? what impact will this have on the catholic diocese use of this chapel? historical

to a meeting, and it's only 6:33. >> so paul seemed to be the right kind of guy for jennifer, said roy. >> because he was an entrepreneur. and he seemed like he was a very driven person. and that's definitely a quality that jennifer was looking for. >> jordanian-american paul zumot, sleek, attractive, educated, engaging. paul owned a local hangout, a cafe. unusual place by north american standards where customers could smoke flavored tobacco pipes called hookahs. this man was a fan. >> he's a good-looking man. he looks good, smells good, he's witty, he's smart and he's just affectionate. >> so love at first sight? well, maybe. said their friends. >> from the minute he told me about her, he always talked about how wonderful she is and how she's perfect. >> he definitely was very charismatic and liked to joke around. >> and money? there was a lot of it around apparently, too. and jennifer and paul worked hard to get it. they seemed only too happy to spend it. >> when jennifer and paul first got together, paul took jennifer to new york city. >> and i remember he was like a kid in a candy

donald trump has always said he wanted roy cohn as his attorney general and he couldn't because roy cohnin 1986 and before he died, he was convuicted of crimes and donald trump loved him because he would do anything for donald trump, anything. does he finally have his roy cohn again? is that what this letter tells us about the attorney general of the the united states? we don't know yet. but it doesn't tell us anything good or decent or honorable or professional about the attorney general of the united states. that's tonight's last word. "the 11th hour" with brian williams starts right now. >> and president trump shifts h his attacks to the origin oz of the mueller investigation. >>> the whistleblower speaks exclusively toinate net news and aft fireworks today, we learned those subpoenas have been served. and a chinese woman arrested after a security breach at mar-a-lago. she was kaurying two passports and a thumb drive with malware. "the 11th

roy ayala came into the world on march 2nd, but it is a world not ready for him. his parents, george and sonia, are struggling to make ends meet in the bay area. >> my son is premature, so he needs more attention, but i had no choice. i had to go back to work. i'm going back to full-time, the whole day i'm without him and i miss him so much already. >> reporter: the couple spent months looking for housing, staying afloat using vouchers. they say they were on waiting lists at shelters from san jose to santa cruz and the peninsula but never got in, no room. >> it breaks my heart. knowing, man, i'm his dad. i don't want to like -- like i could do better than this. >> reporter: george and sonia got a break when santa clara county made the home first sunnyvale shelter year around. they admit it is not ideal for roy, but are grateful to home first for food and baby supplies. advocates point out the couple's luck underscores the bigger problem. >> think of all of the families that didn't get in here. there's plenty of families still out there. there are plenty of pregnan

did roy step into the trap knowingly or unknowingly? >> it's hard to come to a conclusion about the attorney general's conduct so far until we see the full mueller report and how he's handling this report and what he intends to release to congress. at this point congress is demanding more information. many people in the country want to see the full report. the attorney general is navigating issues of executive privilege and everything else he laid out in his letter. it's hard to totally see the full picture with the attorney general at this moment. if congress feels like the attorney general is not going far enough to release information, then barr -- the attorney general could be susceptible to criticism he's in some way protecting president trump or the institution of the presidency on legal grounds. then you can see him become more of a political target. for now he's been quite quiet. we're basing our conclusions on what he's written out. >> and ben wittis made that point, bill barr has promised transparency, he deserves the chance t

cohn and you're no roy cohn.he idea that roy cohn is the model of what a attorney should be is telling. >> and he also had michael cohen. michael cohen didn't take notes, he just have a tape recorder. >> and michael cohen was a player in the trump orbit according to the president, he's been -- >> but i want to say this about don mcgahn. and i hope he's listening, he may not be. i'm very proud that he did what he did. because he honored legal profession. the president of the united states asked him to lie. asked him to lie. as the white house counsel. and he said no. that showed a lot of courage. >> but gene, i'm sort of torn on this issue because, yes, we need adults in the room to help the play stand up but somebody whose name is cited rachel brand is the smartest one -- the associate attorney general and the president wanted to lean pressure on her and i think she did the smart thing which was get out of there. because the reputational harm to attorneys and to people who respect the integrity of government and

he wants loyalty, he wanted a roy kohn, he believes barr is that roy kohn, and he believes sending himike this helps the president. >> we have not confirmed whether trump asked the attorney general to do this or the attorney general offered to do this. we're joined right now from just outside the department of justice where all the action is nbc news national security reporter, julia ainsley, she broke this news for our network. so attorney general barr will take the podium at 9:30 tomorrow morning with outgoing deputy attorney general rod rosenstein standing by his side. any reporting on how that came to be? >> reporter: so we know that the -- that the president let the cat out of the bag in his radio interview today. i don't think they were planning on telling us that today. there's never a dull moment at this justice department. right now officials are not saying this report will be out at the time that barr takes the stage. they say we'll be able to ask questions, so one would infer we'll have a report to ask questions about. they're not saying that. i pressed on whether or not con

he got his roy cohn with mr. barr and when he auditions for the job by doing that memo on his own that basically said you can't be charged with obstruction if you're the president, the president said you're my guy. he hired him and he's delivered on that. we should all be outraged. the press conference should be cancelled. reporters should you have an opportunity to read it and study it as well as members of congress and then mr. barr should answer questions. >> congressman lue, we now know why the attorney general refused to answer the question in the house and senate, does the white house know anything about the mueller report, have they been briefed on the mueller report? reporting tonight indicates yes, the attorney general has been briefing the white house about the mueller report. >> thank you for your question. it's an honor to be on your show before representatives deutsch and cicilline. bill barr took one oath, that was not to the donald trump. it was to the u.s. constitution. he is not the pr firm for d
