it's a great thing for willie brown middle school. but what we need to do is under this proposal, find a way if we're going to expand admissions from willie brown to lowell to make sure that those students proceed. the current proposal threatens to reduce diversity at lowell because the students from willie brown will crowd out other band 3 admissions from other schools. if there are an additional 50 students from willie brown middle school admitted under band 3, that's almost half of the band 3 admissions for lowell in a given year. it will crowd out students from other neighborhoods and parts of town and decrease racial and ethn ethnic diversity. i think the policy needs a rework. >> good evening. i'm john trezina. i'm disappointed to be before you tonight not so much in opposition to this proposal, but to urge you to send it become for study and consultation. the study and consultation that commissioners haney and murase said would definitely have to happen with two schools involved. it hasn't happened. i wrote to each men member o

hey, dylan. >> hey, willie. we had nasty rain across the northeast yesterday and try to see that move across northern new england. we have snow showers, believe it or not, up through central new england. it is that time of year. the next storm system will move through the great lakes as we go through the day today. very fast moving storm but still enough to bring some rain showers and pockets of heavier rain that will move into the northeast as we go into tomorrow. then that will move away. keep in mind it is extremely windy, especially back through ohio and indiana, back through illinois. chicago started off with rain and see a chance of those very gusty winds, perhaps gusting up to about 45 miles per hour through the day today making >>> it's mild out there on this sunday morning. right about 51 degrees in palo alto. 53 down through mountain view and we have a couple 60s on the map, including concord and hayward. now, the temperatures are actually set to be cooler today. we are beginning a cooling trend, which

willie? >> more on that in a minute. kelly o'donnell at the white house. thank you. >>> the president has seized on what he hopes will be a hot button campaign issue. thousands of migrants from central america moving north towards mexico and perhaps the united states in an attempt to escape the violence in their own country. first, they're locked in a battle with mexican authorities at the guatemala/mexico border. that's where we find nbc's gabe gutierrez. good morning. >> reporter: night after night they have slept here but pash sense waiting and going thin. this morning some central american migrants are deciding to turn around at the mexican border. they don't want to open the gate. we might as well return this man says. but many others are still desperately trying to finish the dangerous journey. some on boats. others liken never pacheco have been waiting in line for days. >> everybody is trying to go through, trying for a better life. >> reporter: the caravan from chaotic is now halted.

. >> willie geist, just like a baby. naive as a baby. >> i'm not a baby. >> babies are sweet. >> you're not a baby, willie. >> i'm not talking about you being a baby. i'm talking about the president being a baby. >> you're baby, but in a different way. >> a hgb agent who goes around believing political opponents and killing journalists, you heard him had right there. he was naive as a baby. and now this khashoggi murder, he's being naive as a baby there. willie, what do you think about this? we've got a commander in chief -- >> who is a baby. >> basically naive as a baby. >> what he may have done is give the saudis the idea for the rogue killers's explanation or announce it before it was supposed to be announced with this idea that was cooked up to explain it to the rogue killers. >> so what you're saying is not a baby, just incredibly cynical and doing the dirty work for autocratic killers. >> we're going to get to a mix of big stories today. general jim mattis reacts to president trump's suggestion that he's a democrat

it was michael pinckney helping out willis. >> brock: you're running willis and garvin and that is double digit tackles for a loss. that is a head scratcher to me. >> bob: francois. incomplete. looking for mckitty. now it's third down and 12. >> brock: that is right in the passing lane. no matter what he tries to do with his eyes, he cannot manipulate it. no matter what florida state tries to do, they cannot take the crowd out of the game either. >> bob: francois. sum how stays on his feed but lost his helmet and the ball comes outsideways. as soon as francois's helmet comes off, the play should be dead. jonathan garvin got in the back field again. and when you lose your helmet that's it. the play is blown dead immediate my and he still got the ball when his helmet comes off. >> brock: yep. >> bob: so it's a sack, not a fumble. and a punt from the end zone for tyler logan, for logan tyler, pardon me. it's up the sideline. it does not reach the 50. out of bounds at the florida state 42 yard line. >> brock: they are back-to-back series you see him talking to willie taggart, where your defen

willie, let me talk to willie, can you show me willie, i would like to see willie -- >> looking for willie. >> i'm hiding. >> how are you? >> go ahead, joe. >> it's good to see you, willie, how are you doing? but it's like what tom nicoles said yesterday, which is, which is, the remarkable thing about donald trump and this republican party is, that they play the card of grievance and they play the card of grievance, despite the fact that they own the supreme court, they own the house of representatives, they own the united states senate, they own the state department, they own the defense department, they own the epa. do i need to continue? they own everything in washington, d.c., and yet they're still aggrieved, poor lindsey graham, he's pissed, never been so pissed in his life, you know what, lindsey is part of a monopoly. the republicans own washington, d.c. they own a monopoly. they can do whatever they want to do. and yet, they're still playing the aggrieved card and we'll see if it works for them a month from now. >> yeah. we will see. we'll see where that energy is. i think you can'

it is wednesday, october 24 along with joe, willy and me. we have historian, author of "the soul of america" and professor of vanderbilt university, jon meacham. he's an msnbc and nbc news contributor. and washington anchor for "bbc world news" america, katty kay is with us. >> i want to go to jon meacham for a second. jon, there is so much to talk about. it is so easy to get distracted, but i do want to just for a second talk about, again, the fact that i think a lot of americans agreed with republicans that brett kavanaugh deserved due process. you just can't say some guy did something and have nobody there verifying that he did something, have one story after another story after another story coming out and not a single person to corroborate. i think a lot of americans said, wait a second, that's not right. that doesn't fit my idea of fair play. somebody should be able to face the accusers, there should be evidence, et cetera, et cetera. that's the way of the country rule of law. then a week later you have republicans running around sayin

. >> willie, this is dumb founding. fox news is now claiming that these migrants are so devious that they have the power to bring small pox back to planet earth. i've just got to ask how stupid do we think they are and then i think about sarah sanders talking about donald trump winning by a massive number of votes and suddenly you realize jut how stupid they think there are base is. >> it's all very insulting. the last known case of small pox -- we just had the 41st anniversary, it was october 31st, 1967. a hospital cook in somalia was the last known case of small pox. so let's just put that out on the table. and, joe, as we talk about this and we talk about the troops, for a man and the president who talks about how much he loves the military, he sure doesn't show them much respect here by spending 5,200 of them to the border in a place where there's already 2,000 national guard troops and the border patrol. does the president not have faith in his great border patrol that they can do the job that they do every day? th

willie, noah is right. you want to see how healthy journalism is. take a look at that extraordinary investigation, the type of investigation that papers like the "new york times" and "the washington post" and the "wall street journal" have been turning out for the past couple of years now. >> i think it was very telling that the central criticism from president and sarah huckabee sanders, the story was too long and too boring. in other words, they don't want people to plow through ten pages of print newspaper. but, you know, i would be interested to see fact by fact what they dispute in that piece. what specifically. that was the question in the briefing room. specifically what do you dispute. sarah huckabee sanders said it's too long and boring for me to get into. the other big thing as jonathan has reported that the president was so troubled by is that it tears apart his narrative, which is thaet built himself up as this guy from queens who made it big in manhattan and became a great billionaire and rose to the presidency. that's just not the case

so we asked the former san francisco mayor willie brown is. which party does he think will power after the election? >> i think that the republicans hold the senate. the democrats can when the house. i can guarantee that only california seems to be a fertile ground for continuous optimism for winning the house. but you have to get 20 other seats somewhere else in the nation on the net side. however, with what is happening in florida with andrew gillum, the mayor of tallahassee, women. st ramsin gi a black woman winning the governorship, it could be absolutely spectacular, come 8:00 tuesday night, for those of us who are real democrats. >> real democrats. not take democrats. i tend to agree. if you speak with democrats, it is like they've given up on the senate. they are resigned to that being bad. another try very hard to make sure that they can take the house, because it is not as clear anymore as it was maybe at the beginning of the year that they could do that. >> we do not have anybody that is offsetting trump in moving from state to state

willie brown is near and dear to my heart as you know. i can say our library is great, but that's the only one i have knowledge of right now. >> commissioner haney: thank you. it would be great to know the strategies we have on that, from our staff, make sure we're providing information and support to schools on both of those points. there were two other things i wanted to flag. i see on here more black teachers and staff. i think that would be something that would be important to bring forward to the personnel committee. and learn more about some of our strategies and how they're working and some of the progress. and look at the numbers there. i think we should continue to make progress on that. i also wanted to -- i know there are some folks here tonight who are going to speak about some of the ways in which we've begun to move backwards on school climate and discipline-related issues and you spoke about the bias versus de-escalation and how we're doing that. so i hope you're all very much at the center of that conversation, at the tabl

i want willie brown to be a theater to lowell. we need to think differently and make our decisions differently in order to expand the theater to lowell. as much acid a fantastic experience at lowell and lowell alumni have a lot of pride, it's really not just about lowell. in the statistics, i saw gala laio, balboa, washington lincoln have more applicants than to lowell. the good news in the district is we have really strong choices and i think we can't jump to the conclusions that 80% of willie brown want to go to lowell. we have a choice system. we have really fantastic alternative choices. it's not just about one school. the bright side, some of the messages had really positive, concrete suggestions on how to support students at the middle school level, at elementary level to help them be successful at any high school. in particular, mark offered proposal for reinstituting a summer bridge program several years ago. we did a step up program from elementary to middle school. so tonight is really about an enrollment policy. we stil

along with joe, willie and me. we have a republican strategist and msnbc political strategist and pulitzer prize winning columnist and associate editor of the "washington post" and political analyst eugene robinson, joe, set the stage for us today. >> well, it's been building up for a couple tumultuous weeks. talk about the circus. this has been the circus as brett kavanaugh said during his testimony. a couple developments we will be talking about overnight, first of all, brett kavanaugh wrote an op-ed for the wall street journal, obviously, very surprising for a lot of people. it's not what supreme court justices are certainly not what people who are aiming to be a supreme court justice usually do. just like they don't usually go on fox news or any other cable news show, to state their case, which suggests that maybe the white house, maybe kavanaugh doesn't feel it's quite over yet. though, it certainly looks like it's move income his direction. also i don't have night for the first time in over three decades the

riots, willie. oh, wait, no, they're covering the dodgers/red sox opener tonight in boston because there are no rye yosts, i don't think. >> there may be rioting if chris sail searches the way barnacle says he's going to pitch. but certainly no riots about what the president said. >> we said this after kavanaugh. my god, the party did such a horrible job on the kavanaugh hearings especially at the end. there was a dip down at the polls. but you start looking at the polls coming out of west virginia, another poll out of florida showing that bill nelson is over 50%. that is really significant. things are start to go break back democrats' way and it's freaking donald trump out. >> and they're not covering the riots. they're covering the big lies, medium sized lies, all sorts of lies. we live in a time when our fellow citizens have all time low levels of trust in our institutions including the government. most politicians lie from time to time, but donald trump is different. he likes to sell himself as

. >> senator this is willie geist. the president announced 5200 troops will head to the southern border at mexico to stem this caravan which is currently about two months away by most estimates as they walk north. 3,500 people now estimated to be many fewer when it arrives at the border. what's your take on the idea of sending that many troops to the border to confront this. >> that's as many troops as we have deployed in the fight against isis. i'll tell you it is not the right comparison and this is an attempt to distract us from the votes that are to be cast just a week from today in our election. we do need strong borders. we do need to have a fix for our broken immigration system. but declaring a national emergency based own a slow moving group of women and children fleeing violence in central america and stoking that

willie. >> joining us now, patrick gasbar. yesterday the ambassador published a response to representative matt getz's conspiracy theory that soros is funding the migrant caravan heading to the u.s. this touches you in a lot of different ways. just your reaction, first of all, to the george soros planting of an explosive device which was the one that set all this off. what was mr. soros' reaction? >> first, let me thank you for inviting me on into this rather sober conversation. when i have a moment here i'd like to disagree by the points made by the two johns. yes, this all did begin with a pipe bomb. george soros came to the united states. george soros regrettably is not surprised today by these attacks. he has been saying for quite some time now that language can be weaponized and that the chief executive of the united states has been spreading shrapnel with his words and with his tone. this is the same president who says before was applauding attacks on the media and who i think it was maybe 48 hours beforehand blamed geor

her older sister and surrogate mother, elizabeth had been attentive following willie's death but mary's uncharitable sentiments about her niece, elizabeth daughter julia, including very indiscreet remarks and correspondence, had frayed their relationship. so, if her own blood were so indifferent to her plight, she could not expect a warm reception from others. she decided on chicago. mother incense departed from the white house on may 23. when lincoln's body had left washington, had turned out on the way, when the widow took leave a week later, there was scarcely a friend to tell her goodbye and when the small band arrived in chicago, there was no welcoming party. out of a sense of entitlement, mrs. lincoln and decided to head for the tremont house, one of the most fashionable of chicago addresses. no sooner had she settled her send it to the quarters that she soured on the experience, drafted her older son robert to find less expensive accommodations and robert found the family summer quarters in hyde park hotel, 7 miles from the city center on lake michigan. he complained utterly to e
