>> welcome back to the weekend. i'm jonathan capehart with eugene daniels and elise jordan. we have much more to get to this morning, including the ongoing manhunt for the minnesota political assassin. plus, remembering the victim's trailblazing public servant, melissa hortman, the former minnesota state house speaker who was murdered along with her husband, mark. congresswoman kelly morrison, who knew hortman well and says she herself was on the killer's list, will join us this hour. also, chicago mayor brandon johnson joins us following the big turnout yesterday in his city. snow king's protests as the city prepares for more workplace raids by ice and later, house democratic leader hakeem jeffries joins us on a traumatic week for america. with political murders and trump's escalating tensions in los angeles. and the message that was sent to trump by yesterday's huge protests across the nation. but we begin with the massive know king's

protests that swept the nation yesterday in advance of trump's military parade. thousands of protests, peaceful protests were held in big cities and small towns in all 50 states. seattle police said tens of thousands showed up. officials in san diego and los angeles estimated more than 20,000. 25,000 were said to have marched down fifth avenue in manhattan, and a stunning 80,000 people were said to have marched in philadelphia, according to local police, with no arrests made during the event, a clear message connected them all. >> what we're seeing is this administration continue to run afoul of the law. what we want to do is get steer. >> the ship. >> in. >> the right. >> direction in this moment, and push back as hard as we can. >> being a daughter of immigrants. >> i feel like i need to show up and stand up and fight for what's right. you know, we have

a country to. >> honor. >> and everything that's happening right now is very unjust. and that's. >> why we're here. >> we're the voice for those that cannot be heard. >> and that's why we're. standing up. it's a privilege. >> because we see. >> our democracy. >> is in. >> real trouble. we see a president. >> who has made himself. >> a king and. >> dictator. >> and we don't. >> see an. opposition that's powerful enough to stand up against the trampling of. >> our rights. >> and the trampling of the constitution. >> that's happening. >> every single day. >> that was, of course, actor mark ruffalo there at the end. it culminated a week of unrest and anger across the country in the face of a stunning escalation of the trump administration's overreach on multiple fronts. the indictment of a member of congress, new jersey congresswoman lamonica mciver, for attempting congressional oversight, the forcible removal of democratic senator alex padilla. the padilla senior senator from california, from dhs secretary kristi noem's press conference for trying to ask a question.

and the federalizing of the national guard, who, along with active duty marines, are on the streets of los angeles, which had already led to protesters to take to the streets in opposition to trump's immigration raids. joining us now is democratic congressman and marine veteran seth moulton of massachusetts. congressman, thank you for coming to the weekend. as i mentioned, you are a marine veteran who was deployed overseas. just your thoughts and what it means to you to see marines deployed on the streets of an american city? >> well. >> it's. >> unbelievably undemocratic. i think the courts. >> will show that. >> it's unconstitutional. >> the way that trump has gone about. >> this, we've never had. >> an instance of. marines deployed against. peaceful protests like. >> this in the past. there was a time about. >> 30 years ago, 40 years. >> ago. >> when marines were. >> deployed at the. governor's request. >> i think. >> about 80 people had. >> already died in violent.

protests in la. >> and this is very different. >> the governor. doesn't want the. >> marines to be there. but speaking as a veteran. >> i have to. >> tell you, the. >> marines don't. >> want to be there either. >> no one signs up to join the. >> united states. >> marine corps to. >> attack protesters to. >> to go against americans on the streets. >> of an american. >> city, just like no one signs up for. >> the. >> united states army to march in a parade. >> by the. >> way. >> that's not. >> why you. >> sign up to serve the country. >> congressman. >> the marine deployment in la is still just absolutely unbelievable to me that. >> we're doing this. >> and i want to play some comments. >> from secretary of defense pete hegseth. >> this. >> week in an exchange with your colleague. ro khanna. >> can you assure the american. people of two things. >> you will respect. >> any. >> supreme court decision. >> on this matter. >> about whether. >> the marines. >> are constitutional. >> and you will respect the district courts when they rule before the supreme court rules. >> what i can say is we should not have local. >> judges determining.

>> foreign policy or. >> national security policy for the country. >> so you're not willing to say you would respect those decisions. what i'm saying is local district. >> judges shouldn't make. >> foreign. >> policy for. >> the. >> united states. >> you. >> congressman. >> this is. >> just incredible to me. just flouting the checks and balances of our government. what can congress do here to have. oversight over the most important. >> duty of. >> the commander in chief? and that's where he. deploys troops? >> well, first of all, i mean, it's. it's flouting the law. it's flouting justices. it's basically pete hegseth saying that he thinks that he and the administration are above the law. and that's always. >> been the. attitude of this administration. >> that's always been. >> the attitude. >> of donald trump. >> politicize the military. use the military for. >> their political goals. >> and show america that. >> they are above the law. congress, of course, should be stepping in and. >> stopping this. but under. >> speaker johnson. >> in the house, i don't. >> think. >> we've seen a weaker. >> congress in, in maybe. >> in american history.

>> in a very, very. >> long time because the. >> republicans simply. >> refuse to take. >> any accountability. >> to fulfill their. >> constitutional responsibilities. >> to hold the executive in check. >> and it's. >> dangerous for america. >> it's why it's. >> so important that. >> democrats win the midterms, and. >> why some of us are so focused. >> on how to move the democratic. >> party forward so that we can ensure victory. >> and have some. >> actual oversight from congress. >> congressman, you know, i'm an army brat. military brat. so i. know how you and just as you know how much help that the va needs, understand how much help the members of our armed services need, both while they're serving and after $45 million for the president's parade yesterday, around $140 million for the troop deployment in los angeles. i guess i'm just curious what do you think we could do with that money? it's not. you know, this is for the federal government. it feels like pennies. but you're talking

about nearly $200 million. what could that $200 million do for the members of our armed services? >> it's a great question. >> because it could. >> make a. >> huge impact. >> on the. >> lives of individual troops and. >> individual veterans. >> when i got elected. >> to congress, i. >> made a commitment. >> to continue. >> getting my health care at the va alongside. >> my fellow marines. >> and i've. >> seen the good, the bad, and the ugly of the va. >> i was. >> on the. >> phone with a marine. >> from my second. >> platoon earlier. >> this week. >> because he's having trouble getting seen by the va, even though. >> he has tumors. >> growing all over. >> his body. >> something that's not. >> uncommon among iraq. >> and. >> afghanistan veterans. >> because of the. >> things we were exposed. to overseas. >> imagine what? >> what a. >> difference just a few hundred thousand dollars. >> could make. >> in his care. >> d.o.j. has. >> cut millions. >> of dollars from the. >> va, tens of thousands of employees. >> many of whom were added. >> by the way. >> by the biden. >> administration to. >> meet the demands of. >> iraq. and afghanistan veterans. >> and so.

>> while you're right. >> $200 million might seem like a drop. in the bucket when you're. >> paying $13 billion a pop. >> for aircraft carriers. when it comes down to. >> taking care of our troops. >> it could be enormous. it could have an enormous impact. >> and this. >> money. >> has just been. >> wasted on a spectacle. >> congressman, nbc news had a story on friday with the headline, lapd chief says there has been no coordination between police and military. explain to viewers why that should concern them, and certainly should concern the people who live in los angeles. >> well, let's because this. >> is a law. >> enforcement job. >> and that's why the. l.a. police. did not. request the marines. it's why governor newsom did not request the marines. >> but i'll tell you, there's also been very. >> little coordination. >> between even. >> the pentagon and the marine corps. >> the marine corps is really. >> caught in a tough. >> situation here. >> where. >> they don't want to deploy. >> to l.a. >> i've heard.

>> stories of marine. >> officers considering resigning their. >> commission over. >> these orders. >> that they didn't sign. >> up for. that may very well be unconstitutional. >> and just. >> before the. >> deployment. >> an order. >> had to go. >> out across the. >> first marine division in california. >> just calling for anybody. >> who had. >> instructions and. >> you know, had experience. >> in in. managing protests. >> because. >> this is not something that. >> the marine. >> corps trains for. >> at one point. >> the secretary of. >> defense, who we already know is the most incompetent. >> secretary of defense in. >> american history. >> couldn't even. >> distinguish between camp pendleton. >> on the coast. >> of. >> california. >> and 29. >> palms, a. >> completely separate. major marine. >> base on the interior. >> when he was describing. >> where the troops. were coming from. >> so this is. uncoordinated from the top. it's also. >> it's also, as. >> you said. uncoordinated at the bottom. and it's. >> all a symptom of. >> the fact that this is. >> not a serious. >> deployment of marines. >> it's a. >> political move. >> by the president. >> it's politicizing. >> the military.

>> for the for the president's goals. and that's dangerous, not just for the marine corps, not just. >> for the la police and the protesters. >> on the ground. >> it's dangerous for the institutions of our democracy. >> congressman seth moulton, thank you so much for coming on the weekend. when we come back mourning the loss, minnesota congresswoman kelly morrison joins us next to remember the friends and colleagues impacted by yesterday's politically motivated shooting in minnesota and why she and so many others called minnesota's melissa hortman a dedicated public servant. you're watching the servant. you're watching the weekend [upbeat music] (vo) this is the new dell ai pc with intel inside. a pc so ahead of its time, it actually helps you save time. like, literal hours. ♪ because it does all your busy work for you. ♪ so you can get busy doing things you actually want to do. and who wouldn't want more time for that.

john huffman and his wife, yvette, are both hospitalized after being severely injured. both lawmakers were members of minnesota's democratic farmer labor party. state senator hoffman was elected in 2012. he has focused his legislative agenda on disability services and the needs of children and their families. state representative hortman served as the speaker of the minnesota house of representatives from 2019 to 2025. she was remembered by colleagues as a trailblazer who was, quote, an incredible leader who dedicated her life to public service and who had a determination to improve people's lives. joining us now, minnesota congresswoman kelly morrison, who worked with both state representative melissa hortman and state senator john hoffman for six years in the minnesota state legislature. congresswoman, first, thank you so much for coming on today. one, we just want to check in on how you're doing. these are people you are close to. and

also tell the folks who are watching who these folks were, especially. miss hortman. >> well, thank you for the opportunity to. >> celebrate these. >> tremendous lawmakers. you know. >> we're really. >> still in shock here in minnesota and grieving the loss of really one of our. great ones. melissa hortman, i think will go down as one of the most consequential house speakers of the house in minnesota history. she was a calm and graceful leader. she was full of integrity. she had an unsurpassed work ethic. she was. >> salt of the. >> earth, and she treated everyone she encountered with respect and dignity. and she loved our. >> state. >> like few people, she dedicated her life to making life better for the people of minnesota. she was a mentor and a friend to me, and i'm devastated by the loss. and of course, john hoffman, who we're praying for. he and his wife

yvette's recovery. they also were gunned down. they both survived surgeries last night and were anxiously awaiting news. but john's one of those guys that is. >> beloved by everyone. >> he's the friendliest, most loving man and you will not find a bigger advocate for people living with disabilities. so this is a this is a shocking moment in minnesota. and i think it's a watershed moment for our country. >> you know, congresswoman, i went to college in minnesota. i went to carleton college. not i know, not in your district. my in-laws have a lake home in minnesota. so to me, this feels like a tragedy in the in the family. i think we said in one of our, one of our teases in the last hour, you were on the list of names that the suspect had of people he was targeting. one how

are you in the middle of all this? especially since he is still at large? and two, how concerned are you for your safety and the safety of other elected officials in the state? >> well, you know, i'm an ob gyn by trade. i had the honor of taking care of patients in minnesota for more than 20 years. so i understand, unfortunately, acutely, how dangerous heated rhetoric can be. i am immensely. grateful to local law enforcement here in minnesota. they have been just doing incredible work. they're working overtime. i've got officers outside my home right now who have been up all. night making sure that our communities are safe, and i particularly want to call out the brooklyn. >> park police. >> department, who acted so quickly in. >> the. >> middle. >> of the night and. >> i'm certain, saved more lives. we just we cannot tolerate heightened political rhetoric. this has to be a

turning point for our country where we say, this is this is not the america that we want. and i don't believe that this is the america that the vast majority of americans want. we want to live peacefully. most of us care about our neighbors and just. >> we all. >> want the same things, right? we have more in common than we don't. everyone wants to be able to earn a living, take care of their families, be able to rest and enjoy. this is not what america. >> is about. >> so i think this is a moment, and i think we saw this yesterday with millions of americans taking to the streets. >> peacefully. >> saying that we want our democracy, we don't want a king, we don't want a dictatorship. and so i'm hoping that we can model melissa hortman going forward, who is a calm and. graceful leader who respected her political opponents and lifted up people coming behind her. >> i she's. dedicated her life

to public service. >> i came to. politics later in my career. and she. >> embraced me. >> she was a fierce advocate for reproductive rights and was excited that i was an ob gyn, a pro abortion rights ob gyn who wanted to run for the minnesota house and helped to lead in that effort. we would not have passed all the legislation that we proudly call the minnesota miracle without melissa hortman, and i'm certain that governor walz would agree with that. we passed paid family leave. we passed comprehensive reproductive rights protections. we passed school meals, breakfast and lunch so that no kid in minnesota goes hungry. all of that would not have happened without the leadership of melissa hortman. >> congresswoman, i'm so. >> glad that you told us more about your friend, because. >> yesterday. >> in the. >> aftermath of this. >> tragedy. >> i watched some video of her. >> speaking about her work and. >> just the passion and.

>> how. >> much she cared. >> and she. >> was exactly the kind of person. that you want to be in politics, and you want to be. looking after your interests as an american. and so i'm. >> so sorry. >> for your loss, but what. >> would you say to. >> other men and women. >> who are thinking about entering politics? >> but they. >> see. >> this violence and they're. >> scared right. >> now. >> frankly. >> yeah, i understand that and i could not agree more. melissa hortman is exactly the kind of person that we want to enter politics. you know, i entered politics later in my career. i was almost 50 the first time i ran for office. i see it as a very high calling, and we need to move to a place where americans revere public servants and see it as a noble endeavor. and it is. i see it as an extension of my work as an ob gyn, as a physician taking care of patients, i'm doing what i

can to take care of my constituents and be a vote for a positive future for the american people. so i would encourage anyone who's ever thought of running for office, please call me. i would be so happy to talk to anyone. we need good people. in politics. it's more important than ever, and i know that americans are hungry for good leadership, for calm and kind leaders who are not bullying, people, who are not calling for political violence. >> congresswoman, in the time that we have left, i guess i'm curious, you knew melissa hortman you were friends. she was your mentor. you've talked about all the things that she's done. i'm curious how you think she would want to be remembered. >> oh, i think melissa would. >> want. >> to be remembered for. >> her work. >> as our speaker. i she was very proud of her role as well. she should have been, because she was a unique. voice in minnesota politics. i think

she'd want to be remembered for her sense of humor because it was fantastic. it could be dry, it could be lacerating at times. but she was a very funny person. i know she loved her husband, mark, dearly, and she adored her children, sophie and colin. >> and. >> you know, it's just it's such a. >> sad day. >> here in minnesota. she will be so missed. >> minnesota congresswoman kelly morrison, thank you so much for coming on. and take care of yourself and everyone there in minnesota, as well as you guys deal with this tragedy. >> thank you. >> so much. >> when we come back, manhunt in minnesota, the massive search continues for the shooter behind yesterday's politically motivated attacks and new details about what could have driven the suspect to carry out driven the suspect to carry out such a heinous crime. you're seeking the meticulous, uncompromising, perfectionists.

>> for more now on the horrific, horrifying, politically motivated assassination in minnesota, let's bring in former fbi assistant director and former u.s. attorney greg brower. greg, thank you so much for coming on the weekend. you know this, we're 24 hours into this at this point. talk about how difficult where the investigation is at this point usually, and what they're looking for and what they're trying to do at this point. >> well. >> at this point, obviously law. >> enforcement. >> federal, state, local is. >> collaborating to. >> find and. >> look for any and. >> all possible leads. >> talking to people, looking at physical. >> evidence. >> using surveillance mechanisms. i'm sure there are dogs involved in. the search. and so they've they've apparently they're looking. >> for someone who escaped. >> on foot. right. he left. >> a vehicle behind. >> so does that make it more difficult to find someone if they're running around on foot? >> it depends on. >> the circumstances. >> i don't know how. >> heavily wooded this area. >> is or what this area. looks

like exactly, but. it seems to. >> me that he's. >> not going to be able. >> to evade. >> capture for long. it's something that. >> hopefully for. >> for all the obvious. >> reasons, we'll we'll wrap up quickly. >> but, you know. it's every situation is different. >> greg, i'm curious about something because the nbc's minnesota affiliate had an interview with the roommate of the suspect in minnesota, and he read what he said was the last text from the suspect. david carlson shared with the media the last text that he that came from boelter around 6 a.m. and boelter allegedly told his friend he would be dead shortly and he loves them. i bring this up because it's a text message. so i'm wondering, as an as an investigator, is it possible for authorities to figure out where the suspect sent that text from? >> most likely, they will be able to figure out everything

about his social media, the details, where he was. that's all going to be part. >> of the investigation. >> that may or may not help them. >> identify or locate where he is at the present time, or where he. >> has moved to. >> as he's. >> trying to evade. >> law enforcement. but yes, the law enforcement. will have. >> a lot of information. >> a lot of. >> intelligence, if you will, at their disposal as they're trying to locate him. >> greg. >> you have. >> such an. >> interesting perspective on this. because you served in. >> your state legislature. >> and you know what it's like. >> to be a state senator and to be serving constituents. >> you were in nevada, and then you were in. >> law enforcement. >> and at the fbi. what can you say. about how things. >> have changed the. >> environment surrounding political violence from the time that you. first entered state politics. >> to now? >> yeah, that. >> goes back. >> at least more than 25 years ago now. and i'll tell you, things have. changed quite a bit. >> the advent of. >> social media. >> i think, has been a big part of that. whereas 25. >> years ago people really just

didn't have the same sort of forum. they have now to. >> express the kind of violent. >> threats and the hate towards elected officials. so that. >> has changed. but i will tell. >> you. >> the. >> tone we've all seen, this. >> is just increasingly. >> become more harsh and more partizan to say the least. >> more threatening. and i think, you. >> know, it's. >> incumbent upon leaders to really call. >> that out and make sure that that the tone at the very top is such that it expresses support. >> for. >> law enforcement, for. >> political officials. there should be no. reason why anybody. >> who might have the propensity to commit an act of violence like this. >> should. >> think that it's okay, or that will be. >> it will be. >> excused, or it will be pardoned, in fact. and so that i think problem that we have in society right now is relatively new. this sort. >> of. >> tolerance. >> even benign. tolerance at. >> the. top for this sort of thing. >> and i don't mean

specifically. >> murder. a political assassination. >> necessarily, but but to allow for. a tolerance of any kind of violence at all, aimed at law. >> enforcement or elected officials is something we. >> just can't have in this country. >> in minnesota is saying, reporting that the search has extended out of the state to south dakota. so that tells us that now, possibly federal federal officials can get more involved. right? you can turn into kind of a more of a nationwide manhunt instead of just state officials. >> well, i think i. >> think that's true. >> although i would i would expect that federal law enforcement. >> the. fbi specifically has. >> been involved in. >> a in a way. >> that allows for. >> their resources. >> to back up the. >> state and. local resources from. >> the very beginning. so, yes. rest assured, everybody who has resources in the area is involved. >> now, including federal officials. >> what do you. >> make of. how this is going. >> to. >> go forward. if the suspect is

at the same time, d.c. had effectively become fortified for a few miles around the perimeter of where this parade was taking place. there was a quietness to the parade as it unfolded, and in large part, these are active duty servicemen and women that you were watching walking through the streets. at the same time, the tens of thousands of other active duty army soldiers are stationed overseas, not just in asia and europe, but in the middle east. as they're watching airstrikes go between iran and israel, and questions of how this current commander in chief intends to use them militarily ahead. and, of course, more soldiers, fellow soldiers, thousands of them in the streets of los angeles being used for domestic purposes. so there was so much at play. while it was a recognition of the 250 years of army service of those who have served at the same time, it was hard not to recognize that there is a serious questions that are

in front of these very soldiers that were going down those streets yesterday about how they'll be used abroad, but also here domestically. >> von vaughn, i don't know if you if you saw in the first hour when we had jeff mason, a fellow white house reporter from reuters, who was also on the ground yesterday, could you and i and i watched some of your videos on, on instagram through the crowd. can you give us a sense of the size of the crowd and whether some of the clips we're seeing on social media accurately reflect how many people were actually there? >> yeah, the images that folks perhaps saw on social media that here in this video, i think it's a very accurate representation. and in large part i would compare it to a normal july 4th, which this was most certainly not usually. july 4th has a very celebratory feel. there's not miles of fencing up around, there's no secret service, no tsa checkpoints. that's what

existed yesterday. and i think for good reason. there were security concerns, not only the president being there, but also the us active military service, men and women. at the same time. you watched a few thousand people that came here to commemorate the 250 years, but it was far from the type of demonstration that i think that the president of the united states anticipated. look, this isn't china, this isn't north korea. you can't force citizens to show up for an event like this, let alone on a hot saturday. with storms looming overhead and serious security protocol to deal with. and there was parts of this line i was right over by that press, over by the viewing stage where the president was, and there was just a few hundred people in some of the stands there as that were leaving and exiting as this was playing out. so it was difficult. i just want to be clear, it was difficult watching so many of these servicemen and women marching down the street as orders from their commander

in chief, at the same time that there was a crowd that was dispersing. it was just an odd scene, one in which there was so much respect that is owed to the veterans who have served this country, fought for not only america's freedom, but also for the rights of others overseas. and the president wanted this the first time it's happened since 1991, to celebrate the return of soldiers from the gulf war. but this was a don't think in so many ways, the type of military parade that the president envisioned, but one that had a lot of complexities and layers to it. with all of these serious questions hanging overhead, knowing that this commander in chief will be in office for the next three and a half years, making decisions that are going to impact the lives of these servicemen and women and their families that were here in washington, d.c, yesterday for this parade. >> with everything you just said, how do you think president trump is kind of taking this all in? right? he wanted this huge display. he wanted he wanted lots of people. i think at one point i was told from folks in the administration they were expecting, hoping for 200,000

people to show up. how do you think the president is kind of taking this? does he think his success? >> well, look at it. >> this way. his communications director, steven chung, this morning put out a social media post in which he said there were 250,000 people that came out for this parade. that's just not accurate. it's not even close to accurate. and so that's the way that this white house would like to present it. but just the eye of any individual who is here on the ground or looking at images or video knows that there were not 250,000 people, but that can be the white house's position here. at the same time, there were hundreds of thousands of individuals that showed up in major cities that showed up, but also in small towns where in all 50 states to take part in these peaceful demonstrations around the country. and that was happening. those protests were happening at the exact same time i was watching on my phone as the parade was taking place, and the president for almost three

hours alongside his vp, secretary of state, secretary of defense, well, that parade was going on. americans were in the streets like this. and so i don't think it was the type of imagery that he wanted. and especially here in washington, d.c, you guys are here. there was not the sort of mass protest that he was alluding to and saying that he would suppress and use strong force against. so in so many ways, there were contradictory images that i think are tough to reconcile for this white house at a moment in time that he's trying to exert this strong executive power. at the same time, you're seeing this sort of grassroots demonstrations pop up around the country. >> yeah. if anything, washington, d.c, outside of the parade area was very, very quiet. vaughn hillyard, nbc news vaughn hillyard on the north lawn of the white house, thank you very much, as always, for coming to the weekend. coming up after the break, chicago on edge mayor brandon johnson joins us to discuss how immigrant advocates and organizations are bracing for a potential barrage of ice raids across workspaces in the chicago area as ice
