a cold. trevor. welcome to the program. your initial reaction. when you read this, did it much with your own experience. my initial reaction was typical b, b, c, trans store hatred into the population. there are now the government corporation, and that's why meghan solve people. you can subscribe and scrap the tv vices because they're biased on your, from your own experiences. you say you haven't seen anything like this. never at does that. my mom died. there's a chime as to any conversations you've ever had about something like this. no, never, never seen it and you don't understand it. the british forces are like every other forces and we have our own standers. we know that it's wrong to point a weapon. it's somebody who isn't an immediate threat to life. it's wrong to do so. i've never seen that happen in my company. i've never seen that man around me do it and we know right or wrong, we're not, we're not killers. the program or the documentary alleges that soldiers commanders felt that they didn't have to answer to any one. was that climate t

he is very much the trevor bayliss style, that is - the trevor bayliss style, that is someone he citedss and he likes players to do their own thing and to play that game that they naturally play. that is right out of their playbook. that is right out of their playbook. that should fit nicely with what england white ball side is trying to do. but if you start losing series and games that people expect you to win, then questions are going to be asked especially if you are a new coach because not many people know a lot about matthew mott. people have a lot of respect for him and expect him to do well. the a lot of respect for him and expect him to do well.— him to do well. the results that he's getting _ him to do well. the results that he's getting is _ him to do well. the results that he's getting is in _ him to do well. the results that he's getting is in sharp - him to do well. the results that he's getting is in sharp contrastj him to do well. the results that i he's getting is in sharp contrast to the testing as if there is been some kind of trade—off. titer? the testing as if there

russia's case against that prisoner trevor reed was sketchy from the start.2018 while visiting his girlfriend in moscow, who's taken to a police station is sabra after a night of heavy drinking. the next moment after this question by the russian intelligence service, the fsb, the marine veteran was attained and a call accused of insulting the officers who taken him in. during the steyer trial, this officer struggle to remember the incident and repeatedly contradicted themself. the whole thing was such a farce that at one point the judge laughed at the evidence. so it's no surprise the people thought that read was used as something of a bargaining chip for russia. history may be repeating itself in the case of the a w b and a star brittney griner. today she pleaded guilty to drug charges claiming that the two cartridges found in her luggage with police said contain cannabis oil were left there unintentionally. but she still faces up to ten years in jail if convicted. she's expected back in court on july 14. her wife charles mercury held up -- calling on the bi

one on one with trevor reed. the marine now back in the u.s. after being imprisoned in russia for nearly three years. his advice to brittney griner, who's in court today, and what he says the white house should be doing. i'm hallie jackson in washington with a jam-packed show for you today. i want to bring in nbc news correspondent vaughn hillyard, who is posted up in the location where mr. trump is set to give that speech. nbc news capitol hill correspondent ali vitali is with us. justice reporter ryan riley joins us along with "washington post" political investigative reporter josh dausee and former republican congresswoman from virginia barbara comstock. vaughn, i'll give you the floor first with the expectations for donald trump coming now as we said really in the shadow of the capitol, of the attack on the capitol, of the investigation into the attack on the capitol. we saw him lash out against that a little bit over the weekend as president biden is basically calling out donald trump's hypocrisy, essentially, with the former president exp

we saw that that led to ultimately securing trevor reed's release.ems to be sort of a page from this playbook as griner's family is raising their own public pressure campaign on the white house in the hopes that it leads to more engagement on the part of the white house. we'll see if we get more of a response from the administration today when we hear from the white house press secretary or perhaps even from the president later today. >> our thanks to mike memoli. joining us is retired add midterm james stavridis. admiral, i know you know how high the stakes are and the relationship between putin and the white house, the u.s. and nato. what the official media in russia says they want trade for victor boot, the notorious arms trader, terrorist, 25-year sentence, jailed, convicted in the u.s., and that's very high price, some would argue, for the president to pay, but sharell greiner is telling people they spoke with trevor reed's family, met with trevor reed's family, and they know the only way to get anything done, a trade done which is what was done

trevor reed, thanks. >> thank you. thank you for having me. >> we hope they're in the same situation, that would be wonderful. >>> you almost never see this in washington. you never see washington surprised like it is this morning. democratic senator joe manchin announced he has struck a deal with senate majority leader chuck schumer. this is a major piece of legislation they say would pay down the national debt, cut healthcare costs, fight climate change and battle inflation. former treasury secretary larry summers joined us last hour. he reportedly held conversations with joe manchin that helped convince him to sign on. >> this bill is fighting inflation and it has a whole set of collateral benefits as well, but it is fair to call it the inflation reduction act because it is directly fighting the rate of inflation. >> so joining us now is former senior adviser to joe manchin jonathan cot. full disclosure, you sat with us and you told us manchin did not walk away, he isn't gone for good, he hasn't shut down negotiatio

that's what happened with trevor reed. there has been the idea that the russians, what they want is a very high valued prisoner in the united states, a convicted criminal, not at all analogous to an innocent person illegally defined of brittney. he was a weapons trader with terrorists. he's a criminal. do you think the president should turn him back to the russians to get her home? >> we got several americans that are locked up. i think trade them for the three of them. we got a former diplomat. we got brittney. we got several. we have to do what we need to do. we are the richest country in the world. we can handle a prisoner swap. we can handle that. as the united states of america. what we can't handle is having our loved ones over in the russian prison not knowing what's going to happen to them next. >> you alluded to this. speak to the fact that these athletes, brittney, a lot of these people from the teams have to go to russia to make money in the off season because they're not paid enough. that women athletes are sti

you saw that in the case of trevor reed is few weeks ago.iously the specifics of these negotiations for reasons i'm sure you can understand have to remain private but what i can say is i have personally seen the president's engagement in this case, he spoke do shir rel griner a few weeks ago and has directed his team to do everything in their power to ensure they come back to their loved ones. >> we appreciate the time this morning. thank you. >> thank you for having me. >>> and in just moments we are going to speak to former u.s. marine trevor reed who was in the same situation that griner and paul whelan are. he was in that situation just a few months ago. his reaction to the possible prisoner swap. >>> and in a cnn exclusive the principal of robb elementary school is breaking her silence. >> do you feel you share some responsibility? >> i believe that there is always room for improvement. i believe that i did my job to the best of my ability. ok, let's talk about those changes to your financial plan. bill, mary? hey... it's our form broke

i think trevor reed unfortunately has this exactly backwards. >> we appreciate your expertise.t, the feds expecting to take aggressive action to take down inflation. how it will affect the ability to borrow money, especially in the hot car market. you are watching "jose diaz-balart reports." e watching but what about the new boss? it looks so good it makes me hangry! settle down there, big guy the new subway series. what's your pick? diaz-balart reports. from the #1 fiber brand comes metamucil gummies. getting your daily fiber is now even easier. made with prebiotic plant based fiber to support your digestive health. each serving has 5 grams of fiber and no added sugar. metamucil fiber gummies. when you need help it's great to be in sync with customer service. a team of reps who can anticipate the next step genesys technology is changing the way customer service teams anticipate what customers need. because happy customers are music to our ears. genesys, we're behind every customer smile. seen this ad? it's not paid for by california tribes. it's paid for by the out of state ga

look at that, that cumulative heat trevor was mentioning is so incredible. and now we're going to get a taste of it. our second official heat wave in new york city has already started of the summer. and boston will get their first staying in the 90s. >> and ginger, while we have you i know you and the team have been studying these summer high temperatures going back for a century in our country. i was going to ask if you could show us just the last 50 years what the record books could show as far as summer highs recorded in the u.s. and what you've seen, a clear trend. >> sure, david, i'll take you straight to the data. so you're looking first at the map that says 1961 to 1990. these are 30-year averages compared to the 20th century. you see some blue on the map. over the 50 years of this time lapse as we take the 30-year averages up you see a rapid rise in temperature across the entire nation. there are very few cooler spots than average at all. and what this means, and i know you're looking at me now and saying okay, so you showed us 50 years, our earth is

>> all right, trevor ault in virginia for us tonight. trevor, thank you. >>> we turn to the war in ukraine tonight, and the horrific toll now emerging after russian missiles targeting an office building in central ukraine, far from the front lines. an apartment building complex was hit, too. at least 23 people killed, including three children. more than 100 injured. abc's tom soufi burridge is on the scene in ukraine for us tonight. >> reporter: tonight, death and destruction in the heart of vinnytsia in central ukraine. surveillance videos posted by a ukrainian official showing the moment of impact. some ducking for cover inside a store. a cyclist thrown to the ground. debris flying everywhere. sheer panic. and a shadow descending. likely from the thick column of acrid smoke seen filling the skyline in this video online. and 4-year-old elizaveta, seen in this video, thought to be taken just before the attack, killed. tonight, her stroller now the scene of an alleged war crime. imagine this area mid-morning, downtown, in a major ukrainia

even though i don't understand, i feel like i should support it. >> your former client, trevor reed, spoke to mike colleague jake tapper. here's what he said. >> i'm extremely optimistic about it. i think that is a good possibility. i think that, you know, if the russians are not stupid that they will take the offer. you know, i am hoping they are not stupid. but, we will see. >> do you think trevor reads prisoner exchange help push the biden administration to make this offer? >> no question, don. i think that trevor's parents protesting in dallas, then again in front of the white house -- in fact, protesting into the oval office, had a lot to do with it. we have been campaigning for this trade since last fall. i think we saw, from the ground under its -- the way i see it, we are getting far more time off of our visitors and the russians are getting off for theirs. we have to send mr. boot back in 2028, whether we like it or not. we may as well get something in the deal. >> brittney griner was in court, today. you say she is a character in a perverse play that putin is orchestrating.

in the case of trevor reed, u.s. ambassador called it theater of the absurd.aul whelan's trial had secret evidence according to u.s. officials. so i think that it is understandable that the family are very worried about this trial and how it will go. but i think the other point to this is that trial even a conviction doesn't preclude an eventual deal being made to secure her release. trevor reed was released after having been convicted, admittedly that gave a sort of combination of both hope and despair to the other families because of course trevor reed had a health emergency which seems to be why u.s. officials pushed for his release. but there is talk in the state department, they do seem to be actively dealing with this, jake tapper spoke to antony blinken about a week ago, asked him about the potential for a prisoner swap for brittney griner. and he said that they are not discussing details, but he said that bringing americans detained abroad home from detention is their highest priority. so the trial is set to start within the hour, we're hearing from cn

the extreme heat is making it hard to combat them and trevor ault is in fort worth, good morning, trevororter: good morning, george. we're in an absolute gauntlet of extreme heat. these medstar ambulances are prepped to respond to heat emergencies here which means each of them have three separate air conditioners, and yesterday every single heat-related patient they had had to be hospitalized, unprecedented and not cooling down anytime soon. fires raging overnight in north texas as the state deals with record heat. this grass fire quickly spreading near fort worth destroying multiple homes. >> they say it's the one good thing they have going for them, endless supply of water right next to the flames. >> reporter: the ten-day forecast in our houston station shows triple digits across the board for the first time ever. >> triple-digit heat looks like it's going nowhere in the foreseeable future. >> reporter: much of texas has seen no measurable rain for weeks and residents asked to conserve electricity and water. >> we're experiencing a stress on our system because of peak demands with pea

. >>> trevor reed, home in texas for the first time in nearly three years. after being freed from a russian jail. president biden agreed to a prisoner swap for a convicted russian drug smuggler serving 20 years in the u.s. >> we believe that he probably saved our son's life. >> the two prisoners trading places between american and russian planes on a tarmac in turkey overnight. >> the last time prisoner swap between russia and the u.s. took place was just a few months ago, in april, russia's case against that american, trevor reed, was sketchy from the start. in 2019, while visiting his girlfriend in moscow, he was taken to a police station to sober up after a night of heavy drinking. the next morning after he was questioned by the russian intelligence service, the fsb, the marine veteran was detained and accused of assaulting the officers who had taken him in. during reed's trial, those officers struggled to remember the incident and repeatedly contradicted themselves. the whole thing was such a farce that at one point the judge in the case laughed at the e

i think trevor's parents protesting in dallas, and again in front of the white house.heir way into the oval office. had a lot to do with it, right. i think with the reads, we have been campaigning for the straight since last fall. i think we saw from the ground under and the way i see it. we are getting for more time, the russians are getting off of there. we have to set mr. putin back in 2028, whether we like it or not. and we may as well get something in the deal. >> you know, britney griner was in court today. you say she is a character and a perverse play. that putin is orchestrating. tell me about that? what is he trying to accomplish? >> it's hard to say, you know, he has a history of thinking, seemingly like objects to be fogged at. we know he is a massage honest. i am not sure where he stands on issues of race. it just seems like he is parading her. you are showing the video now, i think, her first day in court. they had a like seven guards and a police stop. and i don't understand, why that was necessary. i think they were parading her, it's absolutely outrage

side, you are dealing with humanitarian situations, as we saw with one of the americans released, trevor was the commuting of the sentence of a russian criminal, and you had a case that just went on and on and the word was trevor reed was quite ill. we at least have had a chance to see brittney griner. we also have paul whelan, another american, and the difficulty in this situation is, you are dealing with a government in moscow, a very mercurial government and very mercurial vladimir putin at the time wn there is a war between russia and ukraine, and the united states and nato and britain and others have made it very clear on where they stand on that issue. brittney griner was taken one week before the russian invasion of ukraine. so, imagine what she was thinking. in her case, it was for a small amount of drugs that she says she inadvertently packed. in the case of others, it is charges of spying. so, these are all very different, very complicated that you are dealing with a government that, the best word i can use is mercurial at best. >> thanks for the analysis, torah, ending this ed

trevor reed a few months ago. and i have every confidence in predicting that the biden administration is looking very closely at trying to make it happen again. >> and would it be, would it be reasonable to turn over viktor bout who such a dangerous criminal, an arms dealer? >> no, it's not reasonable. and i think if we try to equate equivalency who is a good guy and who is a bad guy, there is never a deal that would be done. it is just a very prag mat ig decision. do we want ho told him for ten ors near, he has been in jail for 10 or 15 or do we want to get these americans out and if you put it in morality terms or what is right, you'll never get a deal, i think you just have to make a decision is, that swap in the interest of these americans. that's the question that the biden administration has to tackle. and then remember, they have to get the russians to go along. so we're focused on what the biden team needs to do. remember, the russians have a say in this. we should not presume that they will go along. but

>> you know, the book i enjoyed was trevor noah's born a crime and his book was my inspiration because in reading born a crime, i thought i was going to-- the title is amazing at first. you know, very deeply personal about being important biracial in south africa and even his own birth was a crime, the fact that his parents got together and had him, and in fact, when my parents, you know, met each other and fell in love and had me, my dad in his home state of virginia could not have married my mother because in virginia it had not passed and i learned so much about apartheid and experience of apartheid to the individual both on the black side of the equation and the white side of the equation from trevor noah's work and i wanted to do the same thing growing up biracial in asia and i wanted to teach the reader what it was like to grow up in southeast asia post vietnam, but also, why i to this day still believe america is worth it and worth fighting for. i got it write the book because my six-year-old daughter abigail asked me that question. she said mommy, you don't have legs -- and she

in the case of trevor reed, and this is what we are doing now, former marine trevor reed was exchangedussian pilot konstantin yaroshenko in april of this year at the white house, then they expected a flurry of criticism from republicans for this exchange, but contrary to expectations, american politicians. he was greeted, apparently inspired by the success. the biden administration then decided to work out a new deal, when the exchange could happen is unknown, but it is unlikely will happen until the court in khimki delivers its verdict. britney granner. the process is still ongoing aleksey veselovsky alexander gusev ntv usa donald trump intends to sue the american media correct the publication; and apologize otherwise compensating for damages. ex-president will seek already in court, and across the ocean, they just put an end to a high-profile case. the british court slandered thirty years ago, told the bbc to pay a large compensation to the former nanny of prince william and harry, one of the prominent journalists talked about her and did this only in order to get an exclusive interv

we've demonstrated with trevor reed who came home a few months ago that the president is prepared to make tough decisions if it means the safe return of americans. at the same time we are working with partners around the world to use all of the relevant tools at our disposal, including some that were announced just recently in an executive order to respond to and impose costs on those who engage in this practice. i believe we can fulfill both imperatives. i think you can expect to hear me in the weeks and months ahead speak more to the efforts that we're making to reinforce this global norm against arbitrary detention to deter countries from doing this in the first place. reporter: can you speak to the grain? secretary blinken: apologize. i didn't get to your second part of the question. look, andrea, it was incredibly powerful when we were in bali a few weeks ago at the g-20 to see foreign ministers from around the world demand that russia end its blockade of odesa and the grain that's been blocked in ukraine for six months. more than 20 million tons. and minister after minister did
