vaughn, let me start with you at the capitol. i think really the question here is how far apart are republicans and democrats this afternoon with this over $2 trillion infrastructure bill, seeing a glimpse of it there on "meet the press" earlier today. >> good afternoon, yasmin. if i could make one point too, watching that video of officer shaver there, god bless him and his family and the family of officer evans. for everybody who works up here on capitol hill, again, god bless to those families. but to your question here when we're talking about infrastructure, let's set up the timeline. speaker pelosi said that she wants to get this infrastructure bill passed by july 4th. so essentially you've got three months to convince republicans to come onboard. senator mcconnell in front of cameras here this week following joe biden's announcement said straight to camera that he does not see his side getting on board. democrats could potentially pass this infrastructure bill with just democratic votes but that is not what the biden admin

vaughn, if you can hear us? >> we are getting word -- >> this is the procession. >> can you hear me? >> i can. this is a procession -- >> okay. >> carrying the capitol police officer who lost his life today to the medical examiner's office. are you able to see this from where you're standing? >> yeah. i am not able to see where this procession is coming from. all i know is that we have been told it will come past constitution avenue. i believe you're looking at the chopper video i can't see myself here. but we are just getting word this is a procession that's carrying the remains of this capitol police officer who died in the line of duty here today and this procession will be leading to the medical examiner's office here. to my understanding, we have not yet named this individual as the capitol police acting police chief said that she was still trying to reach out to the next of kin before making that name available to all of us in the public to pay our respects. but i know once that procession here makes the w

and vaughn inside the rotunda. 100 days later, what has changed? the threat is still there. >> good morning, stephanie. unlike 100 days ago, there's police and national guard present. on the evening before 100 days ago, there was no law enforcement anywhere on the capitol. we will pan over. it was the protesters who marched right down here on pennsylvania avenue after president trump spoke, they came here, arrived here to the west front lawn where we stood. again, no law enforcement personnel to be seen. you can see right now, there's still a nine-foot fence that's up. that's new since january 6th. it would have potentially stopped folks from coming onto these grounds if it had been up on january 6th. but why does that fence remain here 100 days later? why do 2,000 national guard members remain here around the capitol complex? it's because of the very evident deficiencies within the capitol police force that remain. just yesterday michael bolton testified in a house committee in which he noted the inefficiencies in planning, development, leadership

vaughn hillyard, let me go to you. issue that mike didn't touch on that the president is struggling with, according to the new polling, is immigration. that's an issue that has played out in a significant way where you are in arizona. how arizona goes is going to be a critical test, really, for whether the trends that put biden in the white house are going to continue, are going to hold. what are you learning from the voters you are talking to here 100 days after the beginning of the administration? >> you are right, because this agenda has a big impact looking forwards 2022. not only is the governorship and other statewide officers and others up, but mark kelly will run in 2022. republicans see democratic -- an opportunity here in arizona to take the seat back. i want to introduce you to a sun city, arizona, voter who i just first met last summer here. he had only voted for a republican for president his entire life. he told me he was going to vote for joe biden for president in november. that's why i wanted to catch

they're understaffed and overworked, enduring an emotional 2021 jose >> vaughn, thank you >>> we hit a new milestone in the race to vaccinate the country. more than 4 million people were vaccinated yesterday. that's a new record. more than 100 million americans are now vaccinated but there are concerns of a possible new surge. take a look at this map. more than two dozen states are seeing increases in cases tonight we'll take a step back and put all of this into context just how bad is this surge? sam brock breaks it down for us. >> reporter: this weekend, easter celebrations come with cautionary words >> please be careful >> right now i'm scared >> reporter: health experts warning of a fourth wave. how would this version stack up to past surges first up, cases which are rising nationally. but miles from the winter surge that peaked at over 300,000 in one day right now the weekly average is 64,000 infections a day that's an 8% bump from a week ago >> this is about where the peak of the summer wave was last summer so there are a lot of infections happening right now but it's nothing l

vaughn hillyard is live in phoenix for us today. also msnbc political andist former senator claire kak caskill is back. and now the co-director of republican accountability project and frank figlusi. vaughn, i will get to you in a second. i want to start with frank. the story is on the front page of "the new york times" and not the first thing i read but i was horrified. most of the people that bended to this demand for i think what is a fourth recount of the recounted recounted votes were threatened. their lives were threatened, the children and spouses were threatened and homes under 24-hour police protection and i wonder where this is where we are that the extremists demand audits where none is needed. >> this is audit by intimidation. county sheriffs parked them in front of houses because they have been threatened if they did not comply. but let's make this clear. we've audited to death here in arizona. we have had three reviews. there have been numerous court challenges. this isn't about proving the lie. it is about perpetuatin

let's bring in nbc news vaughn hillyard who is near the scene. i know you've been making your way there. what can you tell us, vaughn? >> reporter: yeah, they just allowed us to move closer here. the perimeter is shrunk here. this is constitution avenue and you can see the ambulance from the greater aerial shot. come around here and get a better shot of the scene on the ground now. there's about 2,300 national guard, chris, that are on site here. the pentagon confirmed that the national guard, there's an emergency response team sent to the site here. they had constructed a larger perimeter. almost where the second layer of fencing had been up until two weeks ago. they have now essentially allowed everybody here back up closer. i'm going to have scritch take a shot to the left. that's the office building. every member as an office and that is the russell building. this is where you've been seeing video come from of the aerial view coming down. that's the building where you have seen aerial shots throughout the afternoon. but this is constitution a

vaughn hilliard, good morning. what more do we know about not only the officer who passed away, but the officer who is wounded? >> reporter: yeah, good morning. we are finding out more this morning. you can see behind me the scene here is cleared up. the gate, that fencing that was opened yesterday where the two officers were struck, that fencing is here closed as of this morning. the metropolitan capital police department as well as the fbi are continuing their investigation in which they say noah green, the suspect involved here, drove his car through that first layer of fencing that i peered to be open before striking the barrier. at that point he jumped out of his vehicle with a knife in hand. what exactly happened after that is still unclear. noah green, the suspect involved, per his facebook postings, described to the teachings of nation of islam. this is a group. southern poverty law center deemed a hate group and muslims generally reject, vehemently reject the teachings of the nation of israel. we should no

since that report from vaughn.ain about how best to secure the nation's center of government which was just, again, attacked two weeks ago, taking the life of capitol police officer billy evans. an internal report by the capitol police showed a series of missteps that led to that day and the danger that those on the hill still face. let's bring into our conversation, nbc news political reporter vaughn hillyard, live from the very spot from which he reported for us 100 days ago. vaughn, i was just trying to remember how many hours we were on the air together. i think i was on for four or five hours that day with brian williams and rachel maddow and you were right there. does it -- has it started to fade from memory? how does it feel to be there now, a hundred days after? >> reporter: you're right, and i think the part is that you asked that question that afternoon is the question we're still trying to answer a hundred days later because i remember standing right here on this west front of the lawn and there was no n

i think this time we can get it done. >> vaughn joins me live. good morning.t, many republicans agree the country's infrastructure does need attention. they oppose the plan almost across the board. what are their specific objections here? >> good morning. that's right, progressive democrats say this plan doesn't go far enough. they are calling for trillions more in investments. republicans, not a single one has stepped forward to offer their support yet. the party's senate leader mitch mcconnell calling this a trojan horse for democratic tax hikes. biden does propose an increase in the corporate tax rate to help pay for this plan. the attention will largely foct republican support, much like they did this last one on the covid relief package. what joe biden does not want on this plan or in the years to come is stalemates. nancy pelosi intends to have this passed by july 4th. >> could be another part line vote. seems to be the way business is done in washington these days. vaughn hillyard, thanks so much. >>> coming up next, a sunday sitdown with music star tur

joining me now to break it down, abc's shannon pettypiece near the white house, and vaughn hilliard just. shannon, let's start with president biden. what are we going to hear tonight? >> a big focus this address will be laying out what the white house is calling the american families plan. this is a very ambitious, $1.8 trillion plan that would include things like universal pre-k for everyone regardless of income, free community college tuition. so access to community college for everyone. it would also include some level of paid leave for parents. now all of this, the president said, is going to be paid for in large part by increasing taxes on the wealthiest americans and increasing the capital gains tax and of course, this new plan comes as the president is also trying to get through a $2 trillion infrastructure plan and that includes everything from funding roads and bridges to electric vehicles and a new railway system. so two very big spending packages, the president is trying to get through and at the same time white house officials are saying, look for him and expect him to make a

garrett, shannon, vaughn, thanks on this wednesday morning.ant to bring in the campaign manager for president obama's 2012 reelection campaign. always good to have you. let's start with this american families plan. $1.8 trillion is what we are being told. pre-k, universal, two years of free community college, paid for by raising taxes on individuals that make at least $400,000. president just passing the covid relief package. he unveiled that $2 trillion infrastructure plan. how does the president -- how does the administration start to sell the idea of $6 trillion in spending in the first 100 days? >> craig, they're going to be very specific about what's in the plan. what's in this plan is incredibly popular things. childcare, pre-k education, child tax credit. these are all things that poll in high 70s and 80s. they are very popular. they are going to want to be very specific about what's in this plan, because these things are just political layups for the president and his team to talk about. as we look at selling this thing, usually, they'

we've got hillary vaughn right now. hillary, that lockdown on capitol hill has been lifted, but what is the latest and can you describe what you're seeing in the situation? reporter: liz that's right so the lockdown we just heard an alert overhead that it has been lifted and we did just wrap up a presser with the capitol police that gave us an update, a tragic update on on the condition of at least one of the capitol police officers that was taken to the hospital. we are learning that that officer has died from the wounds that he sustained. we also are getting some more information about how the two capitol police officers got injured. the suspect that was driving in the nissan altima that crashed ultimately into the barrier that is over my left shoulder right here, he rammed his vehicle into those two officers as well and then he had a knife in his hand, and started lunging at those officers and we were able to get video of that suspect being carted away on a stretcher and loaded into the ambulance. he did have blood o

vaughn hillyard coming to us from d.c. on this story.y on it. >>> the democratic-led legislature in the state of maryland overrode three vetoes by republican governor larry hogan to enact one of the most sweeping police reform packages in the nation. the measures limit the amount of force officers are able to use saying force must be necessary and proportional. it modifies the use of no-knock warrants which ultimately led to the death of breonna taylor and also repeals the maryland law enforcement bill of rights which has been one of the biggest impediments to police accountability in the state. governor hogan said he used his veto power on friday because the intended purpose of the laws have been overtaken by political agendas that do not serve the public safety needs of the citizens of maryland. and they would, quote, further erode police morale, community relations, community relationships and public confidence. for more on this i'm joined by brandon scott, the democratic mayor of baltimore. a man who some, mayor, call reckless and cr

nbc's vaughn hillyard is following these developments. so, vaughn, good morning.morning. you saw those dozens of protesters outside of augusta national golf club there yesterday. after the major league baseball pulled just this last week, their all-star game, from atlanta and moved it to colorado because of that georgia voting law that was passed here this last month, there are now five lawsuits pending against the state of georgia over its voter election law. but while that litigation is pending, there are other states here that continue this spring, to continue to work through their own legislatures to pass other types of measures. just go from east to west, from florida this week who is working on several different measures, including one in which the sponsor, the republican sponsor of the legislation said that it would -- this piece of legislation would bar individuals from trying to influence voters within 150 feet of the voting entrance. and that could include much like georgia, barring folks from delivering water or food. but then you also move to texas, ju

from capitol hill, rather, with nbc's vaughn hillyard. so, vaughn, a lot of people want to know about a possible motive. is there any update on that? >> reporter: this individual is 25-year-old noah green, alex. we know that this man spent most of his life in the state of virginia, in neighboring virginia here to washington, d.c. what the exact motive is, it's still unclear. what led him to the capitol yesterday, this friday, what led him here is still unclear, why attack the u.s. capitol is unclear. we do know from facebook postings, however, that prescribed to the national of islam. these are postings on facebook. nation of islam is denoted as an extremist anti-semitic hate organization. this person posted trying to reach out to louis farrakhan so there are still questions, whether it was related at all to anything that this man started to follow. there is still serious questions, ultimately, because now we know that this man ultimately is suspected of murdering billy evans, the officer, u.s. capitol police officer, an 18-year veteran o

nbc's vaughn hillyard joins us with a closer look. lieutenant nazario was driving home in his new suv when he was pulled over. >> reporter: that's right. again, this is on december 5. this is the windsor place apartment. the two officers you see work for the windsor police department. the police report from the officers say they saw the lieutenant's vehicle, they did not see a license plate. that's when they turned on their lights in an attempt to pull him over. they say, though, that he continued on. now, nazario says he turned on his hazard lights and drove for about another mile to go to a well-lit gas station, noting his safety at stake. he says he did have on his new vehicle a temporary license plate taped up to the window. but then that is when you see them arrive to that gas station and that is where you see this encounter take place. i want to let everybody see a little more of that footage. >> you received an order. obey it. >> i'm afraid of the police. >> you should be. get out. get out. >> you're not cooperating at this poi

i think we have hillary vaughn available for an update or no?d express hillary is in the capital right now and she is sharing a lot of this information with us via text. darren, good to have you so much we don't know, but obviously this is the same capital posted january 6 writes everything else that ensued. there's a small force of a little more than 2000 guardsman and women working and coordinating with dc police, capitol police, what do you make of what you are hearing? >> i could it's troubling when we consider the narrative that occurred in january. we expected or we had the expectation of greater fortification to be deployed at the capital and with that said we recently heard of some level of dispute that's been introduced by the dc metro police on constitution avenue and a vehicle has crashed into the complex , but it goes back to what are we doing, we have a gerst and meaning this is a standing troop order of 2000 plus national guardsmen and police officers a line in the perimeter to ensure safety. fortunately it's good friday so as you

i am getting this from hillary vaughn and our capitol hill correspondent. is saying she can report a cash smashed in the barrier as you -- car smashed in the barrier, as you are detailing. one person on the ground that capitol police were tending to. two stretchers were rolled out. one to the person on the ground. the other stretcher went beyond her point of view to someone else. two people were pushed on stretchers and loaded to two separate ambulances and the ambulances have since left. the car is still smashed in the barrier, chad, is what she is reporting. final thought? >> that is the issue here. prior to 1/6, it was ought that the capitol itself was secure due to redundancies and it was always concern what would happen outside. that is where you have house members, senators, aides, journalists walking back and forth. that is where i come in each day. we are in the first bona fide congressional recess that there is not a lot of people here today. the house is out, the senate is out. i have not seen a single house or senate member here all day. when con

in gone by small skull could put pressure on all ukrainian politics that's what moscow obviously vaughn's new president selenski understands that and that is why he has changed his tactics towards russia in the beginning he used to be looking for dialogue with moscow now he is choosing a completely different tone and to once and nato membership the 2nd reason is that there has been having a heavy pressure on the program and politicians going to ukraine in recent months all russia friendly t.v. channels for example was closed by president selenski putin didn't like that and now he's obviously taking revenge the next 3 isn't is that the significantly worse relations with the west the verbal exchange with the u.s. president joe biden who called putin and there are there are you never forgets something like that and finally there is also the upcoming parliamentary elections in russia terry the kremlin apparently needs and you are a gent that distracts from the internal russian problems and seeks an enemy from outside and he once again ukraine fits very well as such an enemy ok so that explain

no more "mah" references no more jokes about vince vaughn/owen wilson buddy comedies from 20 years ago. anyway, mccarthy was asked if that account of his conversation with trump was accurate, and mccarthy refused to say. >> is that what president trump said to you? >> what i talked to president trump about, i was t saying, telling me, he'll put something out to make sure to stop this. and that's what did he he put a video out later >> quite a lot later and it was a pretty weak video but i'm asking you specifically, did he say to you, "i guess some people are more concerned about the election than you are? >> no, listen. my conversations with the president are my conversations with the president >> seth: wow, he avoided that had question like he was vince vaughn in "dodgeball." "buddy, buddy, buddy, you're killing me here. i would never divulge a private conversation i'm a discreet guy you know that about me do i gossip occasionally sure would i let a secret slip here and there in return for a favor? who wouldn't but i tell you, i would never tell someone else what you told me in confid

joining me is vaughn hillyard. vaughn, the barbed wire is coming down and now we have this.ood morning, you can see, this is the scene behind me. it's closed this afternoon. this fencing is closed up typically an entrance for members of the congress. constitution avenue, the main thoroughfare remains open this morning. but at the same time, it's what does security look like here. what you saw yesterday, apparently based on the information that we have at this time is this is another domestic attack. this individual is somebody who off of his facebook page prescribes to the teachings of the nation of islam, a group of the southern poverty loss center is deemed an extremist hate group. and when you're looking at that, he had posts related to louis farrakhan, the group's leader. that is where that conversation is. three months after the attack in which white supremacists, groups, militia members attacked this capitol building. lieutenant general russel honore spoke about what security measures could be implemented long term. he a couple weeks ago said more resources are needing

so for example, in our next meeting coming up, we have twin peaks as director vaughn mentioned, at the beginning of the meeting, jfk will be on the horizon too and i don't know when that will probably be more on volunteer as well as the great highway. and i would say the other big thing that will be on the horizon is really looking at sort of what i'll call the fate of some of our pandemic emergency order related programs including the future of shared spaces, which i know council had a briefing on. slow streets, which i believe the council also had a briefing on and emergency transit. these programs right now, are only for the duration of the covid emergency. so looking at what we're going to do with the future past the emergency. those are kind of some things that are on our board's horizon. they're sort of general and over arching and not very specific as we don't know specific items that will be on our calender. we're very interested in hearing from community members. we get e-mails and public comments all the time. i'll close by telling you that our meetings are the first and thir
