director. substantial effect on the always. kelly magsamen, former principal no one better you than you to markets. and that's because most people deputy assistant secretary of try and make sense of this for don't think that selling more beef to europe makes up for the defense. she's now the vice president for argument -- by default you win us. >> reporter: who got a lot of attention during the mueller stuff that's going on around the national security and the environmental argument. world. international policy at the i think we need to take action hearing because of his what's the big concern with or the consequences will be questioning of the former investors right now? center for american progress. severe and costly as we go is it whether or not the tariffs rapper a$ap rocky has been special counsel, vigorous forward. >> do you struggle having this questioning, he had served as a go up or go down, or is it the set free for now. conversation with republicans? u.s. attorney in texas and has the 30-year-old can leave sweden >> i do, but i don't talk about effect that this whole trade war been in congress for a few terms is having on economic growth before the final judgment is rendered on august 14th in his whether climate change is real and has often been an ally of globally? >> well, it's the effect that anymore. the trade war is going to have i want to talk about solutions. on american companies. even the majority of republicans the president, critic of the highly publicized assault trial. one stat that i learned today today i believe think climate russia investigation and that i think is amazing is that though his lawyer hasn't yet frequently appears on fox news. change is real and it is caused 70% of the shoes sold in the said if the rapper tends to by man's actions in large part united states are actually made got attention certainly, and the in china. leave. he is accused of beating mustafa president nominated him to be a bunch are made in other and if man created an issue, man should fix the issue. the director of national countries, but 70% made in but we have to get started in stockholm. the rapper maintains that he and intelligence and in just very china. that means that you're going to today. >> with respect to democrats who see an impact for all those his friends were followed and short order, he went from not are debating it right now, what retailers that sell shoes on 70% harassed by jafari before the well known nationally to this of the shoes that they're brawl. advice would you give them? importing. so the question is do the president trump who attempted to if you were trying to figure out intervene just tweeted a$ap how to implement policies that prominent nomination to today retailers take the hit, does the company eat the loss or do they would be useful and palatable to out of the running. rocky released from prison and pass it on to the consumer, that on his way home to the united americans to confront climate and apparently a series of states and sweden. questions were raised by means when you go out to buy change, what would you tell your next pair of fancy shoes, them? republican senators who had you might be paying 10% more. >> really the local level, that's going to impact the whether city or county, are doubts about the likelihood of ratcliffe being confirmable, as aap. i didn't make that up. pretty much tasked with economy as people look at the concerns about his lack of price increases. either companies are going to eat it or consumers are going to trump tweets about maryland specific knowledge in the eat it. and consumers are going to look providing electricity water and

intelligence community. at those price increases and waste water. he's been a member of the say, you know what, i can't buy committee but didn't have other quite as much as i used to be so all of the city has is the able to buy. congressman elijah cummings and that's going to hit consumer again. mayor level. intelligence experience in legal and five years after the so we need support at the state and law enforcement experience confidence, and that could start but not the kind of resume that a spiral that could be worrisome choke-hold death of eric garner, level and more appropriately at the federal level, and i think typically would be for a -- the in terms of an economic cycle. we can make pretty significant change. we don't need any road blocks head of this multi-agency kind a new york judge recommends termination of the officer. >> it's nice to have you joining i'm alex trebek here to tell you thrown up when we're trying to make climate change less of position. damaging than it already is. also, questions about had he us. eamon from cnbc. >> what do you mean by road inflated or mischaracterized i want to bring in market blocks or incentives? some elements of his resume >> you know what you had is the related to terrorism claiming economist paul. federal government has all kinds of tax credits and the fossil that he had put terrorists paul, somebody i speak to, to behind bars when he had done fuel industry is heavily some work related to terrorism understand the global imapp subsidized by the federal government, as is the state but in a different category that level. so to have a level playing people shined a light on that field, i think solar and implications. and raised questions about his and we have been in this trade renewable energy and hydro war, if you will, for over a energy ought to be on the same year now. truthfulness in representing his we're starting to see the global footing when it comes to tax credentials. effect. credits and so forth. so all of that coming to a boil. so as we see the world slowing a >> mayor, good to see you as the president announcing it as little bit, how much of that is, always. he so often does via twitter i hope you get safely out of is slowing because it's an saying that the congressman had austin with all of the democrats about the colonial penn program. expressed concerns about the expansion for ten years and how much of it is this? around you. pleasure talking to you. >> you're right, ali. if you're age 50 to 85 >> pleasure talking to you. glare and difficulty for his family. the president saying that the and looking to buy life insurance come on down, we will eat global economy is starting to media could possibly slander and slow a little bit, but also the on a fixed budget, remember the three p's. barbecue. >> i would love that. libel him, of course, putting u.s. economy i think is starting no better reason to go to texas the blame on the media and not to show signs of these trade what are the three p's? the three p's of life insurance on a fixed budget than barbecue. on the process and the i would enjoy dinner with you. credentials of the candidate disputes if not what's becoming are price, price, and price. now msnbc is teaming up on

he might want to talk to mick so 10 p.m. and you can now watch or listen on this. but of course it puts the mulvaney. mick mulvaney who is his acting europeans in a tough spot because on the one hand they on sir yis xm radio and tunein, chief of staff, just looked it worry about an aggressive up, just to make sure that i russia. on the other hand they don't wrote it down properly. want the united states to take 22% of the people in that steps to unilaterally msnbc.com/now and apple tv. district are poor. and as always, twitter, destabilize the situation in europe. right? so, they're pretty much caught so if you want to talk about kentucky, which is one of the in the middle of this situation. poorest states in this country. >> i want to talk to you about facebook, instagram. in fact, the ten poorest states have a great weekend. "deadline: white house" with north korea. nicolle wallace starts right the missile tests that were in the united states, nine of now. going on in north korea. the ten are trump states. hi, everyone, it's 4:00 in donald trump has gone out of his louisiana, mississippi, west new york. way to say this is not in virginia, alabama, arkansas, i'm steve kornacki in for violation of anything that he and kim jong-un spoke of it. nicolle wallace. what do you make of it? kentucky, south carolina, we start with some breaking arizona, and georgia. >> you know, at some point this news. following days of bipartisan these also happen to be some of sort of reality tv diplomacy the states with the most violence, the most murder scrutiny, another failure for because they have no gun laws the ever-chaotic white house movie needs to end. vetting process. north korea still possesses donald trump's embattled pick upwards of 60 nuclear weapons. essentially. so gun murder is higher in those it has a very serious ballistic states. baltimore doesn't even make the for director of national intelligence, congressman john top ten poorsz cities in the ratcliffe, is now withdrawing missile program both short-range united states. his nomination. as a matter of fact, the district that mick mulvaney used that announcement after the and long-range that puts at risk to be the congressman of has a president spent the better part our troops on the peninsula and allies in tse missile tests are poverty rate that is literally of his week fighting off legitimate questions about the 1% lower than the district congressman's lack of that -- >> so what's going on here? expe what is this then? >> he doesn't care about

poverty. he doesn't care about poverty because the people he is president of live in the poorest, the hungriest, the neediest states. kentucky, my god, if you wanted to care about poverty, go to kentucky where you have so much poverty. and we're talking about white poor people. there are 140 million people who are either poor or low-income according to, you know, the people who actually study poverty for a living including the poor people's campaign. so this isn't about poverty, it's about race. it's about him trying to say that black people can't govern, black people are not legitimate, black people can't do anything right. black people need, i guess donald trump to save them. >> what does this get him because if he's the president of his constituents, they're voting for him anyway when he talked about shooting somebody on 5th avenue. >> it just keeps his base riled up because donald trump just channels them. they don't live in the inner city. so to them cities are corrupt, cities are full of black and brown people who are corrupt and

criminal. and donald trump just reminds them of that every day so they stay on board. donald trump is fox news whose job, according to gabe sherman and other people who study fox news, their job is 100% to keep white americans riled up, to keep them angry, to keep them pissed off and freaked out about black and brown people. donald trump has the same job. it's the only way that he even has a chance of being re-elected. >> joy reid is the host of am joy must-see tv weekends at 10:00 a.m. eastern right here on msnbc. thank you. coming up next the nypd officer seen on video choking eric garner is suspended after a judge recommends his termination from the development. the final outcome of which lies in the hands of the nypd commissioner. we'll have more on that on the other side. you are watching msnbc.

break news, an nypd administrative judge has issued a recommendation that the officer at the center of eric garner's death, daniel pantaleo should be fired. in july of 2014, an unarmed eric garner was selling loose cigarettes on staten island when he was approached by police.

in this cell phone video pantaleo is seen with his arm around fwarner's neck as garner repeats 11 times "i can't breathe." just two weeks ago the doj announced it would not pursue charges. today's recommendation from the judge which we should note, does not carry any criminal implication for pantaleo, comes as a preliminary decision which has now been sent to both garner's family and the police union representing officer pantaleo. both parties will have until august 14th to review the decision final decision is sent to the police commissioner who will make the final call. earlier today we heard from garner's children in a press conference reacting to the decision. >> this has been a long battle. five years, too long. and finally somebody has said that there is some information that this cop has done something wrong. we've waited five years.

ccrb has made the recommendation. commissioner o'neill, fire pantaleo. that's all we're asking. >> joining me now nbc news kathy park who's following this story closely for us. good to see you, my friend. what's the reaction been? >> this has been going on for the past five years, a really long time. and you have heard people from all angles, a divisive issue obviously. and in the last hour, we heard from the president, the police union representing new york city police officers and he was really outspoken. he said he is outraged by the judge's ruling. obviously it's not the final ruling. but he said officer pantaleo was essentially doing his job, and rhetorically to make a point during the press conference earlier today, he said do you want these officers to go out into the field to make an arrest, and do you want us to call our superiors and essentially proceed? is that what you want us to do? >> meaning not take action in the moment? >> exactly. and kind of be hindered by

making that -- taking that extra step. so that was a point that the union was making. on the flip side you have mayor bill de blasio who has also been very vocal about this. we heard him also at the debate on wednesday, yeah, when someone said fire officer pantaleo. and interestingly enough, when the press conference happened for the mayor two hours ago, there was someone in the audience who basically echoed the same thing. he hasn't taken a position on this. he said, hey, do you have the officer should be terminated? he didn't say. he said he's going to defer to the nypd commissioner. >> but everything he said seemed to imply that he felt this has gone in the right direction. >> he said that he feels like this time finally that we're kind of taking a turn in the way that this process has been going. let's take a listen. >> for the garner family, and i've spent time with them and

i've heard the pain that they have felt has been a very long five years with no sense of closure, no sense of justice. safety and fairness must walk hand in hand. and i hoped that today begins the process of restoring some faith in helping people believe that there actually is accountability and fairness. >> so ultimately we have about two weeks before final decision is made. but as of today, we know thatd officer has been suspended. >> suspended but not fired. >> correct. that will be a decision that the commissioner makes. i want to bring in benjamin krump. he represents the families of trayvon martin and michael brown. every time i talk to you, something bad has happened. this is one of the first times i've spoken to you where we're in a different place in the conversation. but in your opinion, is today's development positive or neutral?

because it's not the decision as kathy said to fire the police officer. >> i think it's positive, ali, because eric garner died as a result of the police using an illegal chokehold. and as we have talked several times before, ali, i absolutely believe that eric garner case is one of the most vivid examples of the fact that the police can get away with murder when they kill a black or brown person in america. >> benjamin, what do you think of the police union and the suggestion that kathy park and i were just talking about in that if you go down this road of holding individual police officers responsible for what the union says is the police officers doing their job, they will hold back from doing that, they will call a sergeant and the implication is that will result in mayhem. that's the argument coming from the police union. >> so, they would like to advance the argument that you can kill poor black and brown people and not be held

accountable. and if you hold them accountable, then we won't do our jobs. well, it's very simple. if you don't do your job, then you need to lose your job. and it's very clear that there are people who are good police officers, we're not saying all police officers are bad people, but when you do something illegal, unethical, unjustifiable, then you should be held accountable just like you or i would be. nobody is above the law. and so the question for the police commissioner, is he going to send that message clearly to the citizens of new york and to people all around the world who watched eric garner say "i can't breathe"? >> you've represented a lot of cases in which there's been violence by the police against african-americans. what's your sense of the degree to which there might be implicit bias or unconscious bias that causes police to do these things as opposed to obvious bias?

>> you know, it's interesting. i want to believe at best that it's implicit bias, ali. but you see some examples that make you wonder if it was just obvious bias. you know, we deal with situations, the fifth anniversary of ferguson, michael brown's death, is coming up on next friday. and many people question whether these officers just target young, especially black men, in baton rouge, louisiana, where he says i'm going to kill you black m-f. and then a couple minutes later he actually kills him. is that implicit bias or is it obvious bias? it's in i guess the judgment of the jury. with but what we know without a shadow of a doubt the law seems to protect police officers who do unjustifiable acts that cause

the death of minorities. and so we have to send a message that it's equal justice under the law for all americans. >> so let's say that message gets sent, whether it's implicit bias or explicit biis. what does the fix look like? >> i think the fix looks like systematic and constant implicit bias training. we have to have from the top down. i know it's hard with who we have in the white house right now. but it has to be sent from the top down that we respect all our citizens and every american citizen deserves their right to equal protection of the law and that a police officer in many instances is the first connection that citizens have with their government. and so it looks like treating people fairly for all of our children. >> benjamin crump is a civil rights attorney who represents the families of trayvon martin exactly what red

the manhattan district attorney's office has subpoenaed the trump organization as part of an investigation into hush money payments made to stormy daniels, stephanie clifford is her real name by michaelti elec. this is according to "the new york times". prosecutors are looking into whether the trump organization falsely listed its reimbursement

of cohen for the $130,000 payment to daniels as a legal expense which could be a state crime. but that's not all. prosecutors have also reportedly subpoenaed american media incorporated. the parent company of the national enquirer which made a payment to cohen to suppress former playboy model karen mcdougal's story about her alleged affair with trump. joining me now is elizabeth holzen and a former member of congress, former member of the house judiciary committee when nixon was the president and importantly for this discussion a former district attorney. you were the kings county district attorney in brooklyn. tell me what this means that the manhattan district attorney, this is not the southern district new york, has issued these subpoenas. >> well, it's pretty important because the manhattan district attorney's office is probably one of the most respected district attorney's offices in the country and has generally been that for decades. they deal with financial crimes. that's one of their areas of

real expertise. wall street is in manhattan. so that's something they handle a lot. the d.a. does not report to anybody. it's not like the justice department who can tell the southern district of new york to lay off or re-write a report. no, the district attorney is elected and reports to nobody. of course the district attorney's conduct is reviewed in every case that's brought, defense counsel can attack it, judges can respond in appropriate ways. and soar, yes, the d.a. is very independent. and. >> an attorney for the trump organization has called the inquiry a political hit job and that it's just harassment of the president. this is the terminology we've heard a lot. his family and his business using subpoenas and leaks as weapons. we will respond as appropriate. talk to me about what happens with this. they subpoena information. what can the district attorney do when they get this information? >> well, the district attorney

can prosecute, assuming that there is a crime. i mean, one of the crimes that could possibly be involved here would be falsified business records. i mean, if the business records were entered improperly in terms of how they recorded in other words the hush money payment, could be a crime, a medicine. it could be elevated into a felony if it was done for the purpose of helping the commission of another crime. so we could have felonies, and it could well be, too, that of course if donald trump ordered the concealment or the distortion or the falsification of the business records, heju f but for the president of the united states. >> this information about the payments to stephanie clifford, to american media, the payments america media made, the payments to michael cohen, they've all

been investigated to some degree. >> right. very substantially. by the federal government. but these are also could be state crimes. it could be state crimes involved in the hush money payments. and the manhattan district attorney has jurisdiction and that's what he's looking at. and just because you've been investigated by the feds doesn't mean that the state can't look at this and actually what happened was that i understand from press reports that the d.a. of manhattan wanted to look at this before but was asked by the federal prosecutor. >> hold on until we're done. >> right. bill barr can't influence -- >> he can try, but, no, he can't. >> liz, good to see you as always. liz, she is an attorney at eric feinstein, former district attorney for kings county. coming up, the 2020 candidate sent dire warnings about addressing global warming at this week's debate. but what does it all take to get americans to understand that

earlier this week, one of the key policy debates was over climate change. and while it's an issue that comes up mostly among left leaning voters, polling shows it is widely recognized that climate change is a real problem, to which we all contribute and for which we all suffer the consequences. according to the latest gallup numbers, two-thirds of americans believe global warming is caused by human activities. one american mayor is trying to do something about the problem by convincing skeptics there are strong economic opportunities in renewable energies. i'm talking about georgetown, texas, mayor ross, who last i checked was republican. >> still remember, proud republican. >> you're in austin, i believe that is behind you. >> yes, austin is a suburb 30 miles south of georgetown and our favorite suburb. >> mayor, right now the debate about climate change is going on between democrats but a lot of
