at half past the hour, i'm alex witt here at msnbc world headquarters. "velshi & ruhle" will air later on this afternoon. we are staying on the air with this breaking news from charlottesville, virginia, as you're seeing a profound police presence. it is stronger than what we have been able to capture with our cameras since earlier in this day when things got very heated as a result of a rally that was supported by white nationalists, white supremacists, members of the kkk all trying to march to emancipation park where their noon rally which has now been cancelled due to unlawful assembly rulings, they were protesting the removal of the robert e. lee statue there. there were all sorts of people coming out in force as well supporting anti-fascism and that is when things got very heated. this is the virginia state police. we've seen the charlottesville police and to a degree the university of virginia campus police. we know one of those officers was injured earlier today and it's not hard to see why. some of the pictures we have been able to show you, you

she's also an msnbc contributor. ashley, talk to me about whose decision this was, because it sounds like he was fired at the request of general kelly with a sign off by the president. then he said he resigned and then some people reported and then there was talk that this was a mutually agreed upon thing. what happened? >> so to be clear, nothing happens in this white house without president trump signing off on it, so it was approved by president trump. but this was at its core a general kelly decision. i think it's an open question how successful he will be. we saw tuesday's news conference as an example of some of the challenges he still faces. but this was a clear sign of his power, his authority. he came in. his mandate and his mission was to staunch sort of white house infighting and factionization. bannon was one of the people he was particularly frustrated with. he didn't have any personal an mouse towards him, but bannon repeatedly refused to stay in his lane. the classic example of that and one of the last

an msnbc exclusive. in her own words, hillary clinton sharing what she thought about telling donald trump to do at the second presidential debate, and why she did not. >> back up, you creep! get away from me. i know you love to intimidate women, but you can't intimidate me, so back up! >> more on that in just a moment. first, president trump fresh off that fiery campaign-style rally in phoenix last night is in the air at this hour. he is set to touch down in reno, nevada, to address the american legion condition. we will go to reno in a moment. but first, about last night. the crowd in phoenix, mr. trump's base, no doubt, gobbled up the red meat. but many others were growing increasingly worried about what we heard in that 75-minute mix of rambling and strangeness. not just going after members of his own party. the predictable swipes at the media, the promise to pardon a controversial sheriff, and that threat to shut down the government over his border wall. it wasn't just the hyperbole we have come to e

let's bring in jim cavanaugh right now, msnbc analyst. jim, you were with me last weekend as we talked based on your background and your work with police and profiling and all of that. we talked about what happened in charlottesville and while there were police on the scene there, let's put it this way to put it mildly, their efficacy was pretty poor until it was too late. it would seem like boston has taken a cue from that and said we are not going to let that happen here. we keep hearing about 500 police officers there, and everyone with whom i've spoken this last half hour has said it seems to be in control at this point. talk about what happened then and what is happening today and the difference, and how police departments go about making that difference. >> right, alex, a great question. well, there's a couple of big differences. one is the size of the force. the charlottesville force is much smaller, maybe 130, 150 officers. of course they were backed up by the virginia state police. boston pd, 2,000, sometimes up to 2500. i don't

let's bring in an msnbc contributor. this is a scene that i feel like i have watched play out with you far too many times, in the last year, especially. >> i think we're seeing just a horrific play-out of something and it's hard to discuss this while we don't know anything about the alleged perpetrator but we know a search is under way and we know it's horrific and it's pointing to the kind of isis-type incidents that we've seen in the past. >> steve, stand by for me. jackie is here in the studio. jackie bow is a producer here at msnbc. and you were on the phone before the broadcast with an eyewitness who was there. what did he tell you? >> he was exiting a museum and heard a loud noise, which was a crash. he didn't see the crash. he immediately ran back inside the museum and right now he's inside a room with 20 to 25 people, including 10 children. and they are afraid. >> and they are being -- they are not being held there, to be clear. they are holed up on their own? >> they are holed up on their own. they're not sure w

for us and we'll stay on it at msnbc. >> thank you for watching this hour of msnbc live. i'm stephanie ruhle. >> i'm ali velshi. our breaking news coverage continues with "andrea mitchell reports." >> we're following breaking news from barcelona, spain. here's what we know now. a van, a white van driving into a crowd of pedestrians in a city square in a popular tourist district. police are calling it a massive crash. emergency crews are on the scene. spanish media reporting that as many as 20 people may have been injured. as for the driver, he reportedly ran away, that is not confirmed. and nbc's keir simmons is following this from new york. let's talk about what we know, we do not yet know this is a terror incident, it may be a terrible accident, we want to make very cautious about that. that said, this follows what we have seen in nice, in years past, what we have seen almost recently, of course, right here in the united states in charlottesville. >> yeah, absolutely. this is certainly terrifying for those on the ground there, experiencing what happened. this vehicle pl

you're watching msnbc. i'm stephanie ruhle. we're talking about the new developments out of the pentagon this morning, just days after the "uss john mccain" collided with an oil tanker near singapore on monday. the u.s. navy has removed the commander of the seventh fleet, vice admiral joseph acon citing loss of confidence in his ability to demand. this week's collision marked the fourth accident involving navy ships in the pacific this year alone. hans nichols is at the pentagon. hans, what's the latest on this investigation? >> the investigation is continuing, but the initial read is that the admiral in charge of the pacific fleet had lost confidence in admiral acoin. he was relieved of his command. he was expected to retire in a couple of weeks but the navy wants to send a message of accountability and that accidents like this are unacceptable. you mentioned the four. the last two have been deadly, over 17 -- potentially 17 sailors have lost their lives. we still don't know if there are any remains left o

joining me now, msnbc's ali velshi. so the president marked this historic moment. >> it's all because of him. >> is he? >> i don't know. generally speaking, presidents -- are limited in their ability to take blame or responsibility for what goes on in the market. there are things in a moment, a declaration of war, a big policy statement, that will move the market one way or another. but the market is much more sophisticated than this. this market was on an upward trend before donald trump took the presidency. what happened is, when he won, because of his promises about infrastructure spending and regulation, you know, taking regulation back and reform on taxes, a number of companies that really stood to benefit from those policies surged. so banks, financial companies, caterpillar, big infrastructure companies. they all gain. so what you saw was a line that was going up like this. suddenly go up like that a little more. and then flatten out. and we have just been continuing to go on. so there's some -- >> we keep hearin

craig melvin here at msnbc headquarters in new york. on the brink. north korea threatens to strike guam after president trump threatens to unleash fire and fury against the regime. so what now? >>> mixed messages. as the president steps up the rhetoric, his secretary of state clearly tries dialing it back, reassuring americans they should, quote, sleep well at night. why are the president and his men saying different things? >>> and predawn raid. the home of former campaign chairman paul manafort was raided. what that means for the russia probe. we'll get to those things in just a moment. but we start with a nuclear fallout over president trump's fire and fury language regarding north korea. his secretary of state, rex tillerson, landed in guam today, appearing to try to stamp out the president's rhetorical fires. north korea threatened the u.s. territory, holding with an attack after trump made those comments. the president continued the war talk this morning on twitter, writing, quote, my first order as president was to renovate and modernize our n

he watches a lot of msnbc. not just you but katy tur and a ari. i think people will find a surprising take on policy from the tonight with someone with a very high i.q. but who doesn't like steve kornacki? >> i wasn't sure. michael steele, hugh hewitt, thank you very much for joining us. and of course you can catch hugh's interview with the one and only henry winkler, aka the fonz saturday morning. 8:00 eastern on the hugh hewitt show on msnbc. this is "hardball," where happy days are here again. ♪ these days are ours ♪ happy and and we covered it, july first, twenty-fifteen. talk to farmers. we know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two. ♪ we are farmers. bum-pa-dum, bum-bum-bum-bum ♪ with no artificial preservatives hot doin all of our meat.. and no added nitrates or nitrites. in every... single... one. so, fire up the grill before summer's over, and finish summer strong with oscar mayer. i am totally blind. and non-24 can make me show up too early... or too late. or make me feel like i'm not really "there." talk to your docto

and we continue to follow it here on msnbc. to give you some perspective, here are the wind gusts that we're talking about here in the past 12 hours. peak wind gusts around port arkansas around 132. lamar, 110. rockport, 108. all throughout 2 night, we are talking about the threat of wind gusts, rain, storm surge. but now, there's there appears to be more of a threat with tornados here with this storm massively flooding with the threat of this system stalling over the area into next week even as late as thursday with as much as 40 inches of rain expected possibly even more. we know federal states of emergency have been declared in the area with schools, businesses closed and mandatory and voluntary evacuations. a lot of the people, law enforcement, are telling them to hunker down, stay inside, don't venture outside. if you need essentials, if you're changing your mind and now want to go seek shelter, wait until they can help you. that will happen mostly when these law enforcement and emergency personnel can head out when daybre

joining me is nina dod and george will, msnbc contributor. you know something about this, this young man was killed, his family incredibly grief stricken and then hit by the fox story claiming he was the wikileaks perpetrator rather than the white house and it was completely false. >> seth rich was a popular, extremely popular, terrific dnc employee who was killed tragically in a murder that is still unsolved. the family had to live for a year now with that. and it is horrible. what was more disgusting is when the story was reported and put online by fox news, in may, and not just put online, amplified by many of their opinion programs and by their news programs as well, covered as legitimate news for a week before the family finally got fox to retract it. and, you know, andrea, what is really -- what is really disgusting about this is the idea you had people sitting in the white house, discussing the story a month before it was published and the white house didn't remember. >> and glen thrush, you were pushing sarah sanders hard at the brief

american express open. >>> that wraps up this hour of msnbc live. my colleague katy tur picks things up now. >> it's 11:00 a.m. out west. and 2:00 p.m. in the east. we begin this hour with the president failing to stand up to hate. failing to live up to the title. instead of letting yesterday's belated condemnation of neo-nazis, white supremacists stand, the president lashed out at business leaders spread an image of violence against the media, promoted more alt-right figures on social media. and seemed to confirm he will pardon a man who was found guilty of racially profiling latinos. our word of the day is chances, as in how many chances does this president get to rise to the office, not cowher to his base. >> the foulout continues many. >> i was miffed when he attacked ken frazier. i thought it was a cheap shot. other ceo's stepped off that council, he didn't attack them. they weren't african-american either.

coming up here on msnbc, craig melvin, msnbc headquarters in new york. the great divider. president trump scheduled to speak at the american legion in reno, nevada, just about an hour from now. he is expected to call for a new unity based on america's common values. will it be a carefully scripted and delivered message, or more of what we saw last night? >>> also, rewriting history, president trump igniting his base last night with that revised version of the actual comments he made immediately following the charlottesville violence. but he didn't stop there. he blamed the media for twisting what he said. and the obstructionist democrats for his stalled agenda. how much longer will his core supporters, will the gop and the country ignore his alternative

msnbc military analyst and medal of honor recipient, jack jacobs. msnbc contributor, steve clemens. allison jazzlow is the chief of staff for the iraq and afghanistan veterans of america and a former army captain who served two combat deployment employments in iraq. steve, the headline in "the new york times" i think mirrors headlines around the nation that people are waking up to. it says trump settles on afghan strategy, expected to raise troop levels. as they wake up with that headline and americans consider that this war has been dragging into its 16th year, what would let's just say 3,900 more troops or thousands more troops do and what won't it do? >> what it probably does is it increases the capacity to prevent the taliban from taking down kabul. it does not allow you to do what david petraeus and stan mcchrystal and others did, more of national strategy to figure out how to take afghanistan the in a different e direction than it is. we've seen the rise of lordism again, not just india and pakistan but iran, the western part of the country. it doesn't allow you to control the

the inside scoop from a national security supporter and an msnbc contributor. what did you learn from your reporting on this? what does it tell us about the campaign? >> so, andrea, the take-away from this little sliver of e-mails in a treasure trove of 20,000 that have been turned over from the trump campaign to congressional investigators is this in a nutshell -- that there were constant offers and invitations presented by this foreign policy aide to the trump campaign from russians, allegedly from the putin government, from russian organizations that were closed to the kremlin, offering to meet with trump, to meet with trump's team, and my personal favorite is putin has been waiting to meet with the trump team for quite a while. these were almost every other week kinds of offers made by this low-level campaign aide and adviser named george papadopoulos. now, some of them were rebuffed by senior campaign officials, but at the same time that these offers and invitations were presented, again, by the aide, there were actual top campaign officials in the trump t

the name to remember. >>> you are watching msnbc. i'm jacob soboroff, and we have been monitoring boston, massachusetts, for much of the day today where 20,000 protesters turned out in a peaceful demonstration to counter a planned free speech rally by the alt-right. we know that the president of the united states has been monitoring the situation closely as well. he's just tweeted several tweets. we can put those up on the screen for everyone to see. right now, the president calling out law enforcement, saying looks like many anti-police agitators in boston. police are looking tough and smart. thank you. i think we have another tweet from the president that has just been posted online too. great job by all law enforcement officers and boston mayor marty walsh. when it comes to the president saying there have been many anti-police agitators, that's not particularly what we have been seeing. there have been confirmed arrests but a largely peaceful demonstration in boston where 20,000 counterprotesters have drowned out the voices to the

mcmaster, the general who is his national security advisor was interviewed on msnbc by hugh hewitt and did say that military options are definitely on the table. he seemed to go beyond the ritualistic on the table but we're not planning to use it kind of language we hear from the white house. these are moments -- >> peter, let me play that. let me play that, and we'll talk about it on the other end. here it is. here's hr mcmaster, the -- >> what you're asking is are we preparing plans for a preventive war? right a war that would prevent north korea from threatening the united states with a nuclear weapon? and the president's been very clear about it it. he said he's not going to tolerate it. north korea being able to threaten the united states. look at the nature of that regime. if they have nuclear weapons to threaten the united states. it's intolerable from the president's perspective. of course we have to provide all options to do that. and that includes a military option. >> so peter, to your point, abundantly clear that they have prepared, at least, a military option should the pr
