eventually, he and his wife launched restaurants of their own in manhattan and atlanta. charlie's warmth made it easy to build a rapport with colleagues and guests, and many became friends for life. he cherished his time with family, and above all, wanted to be a role model for his grandkids. sherrell gorman was always on the move, her friends and family said. she was the kind of person who would "always bring joy into the room." sherrell was well-known in her louisiana community as the captain of the long-running all-woman “krewe of isis,” one of the many teams that organize mardi gras celebrations. but the 56-year-old was just as well-known for her generous spir. one lifelong friend said that, whenever she met someone new, "she never left a stranger." those closest to robb malone described him as selfless and relentlessly positive. a sports standout during high school, robb became a much-loved coach within his minnesota youth-sports community. it was because he put “genuine care for the players” above all else, his daughter said. he was quick to help neighbors,

the sense that something nefarious happened in big cities, like detroit and atlanta, and of course, read that in the context of america's pervasive racial stereotypes. and the association between what black and brown people do and something criminal or illegal and illicit. so you have those two ideas. is sort of inherent legitimacy of the white vote and the inherent criminality or illegitimacy of what black and brown people do to exercise their citizenship. and you get the fuel for this lie. the problem is that this lie is hurting all americans. and this is the idea that's so core, that so often, what is happening in -- when elites try to convince struggling americans that their greatest enemy is a brown or black family down the road that we are in fact taking our eye off the ball. we have foreign nations using our racial divisions and mistrust in order to weaken our own government, in order to fracture our country. that should show us, as the president said in his joint address, that white supremacist terrorism is the most persistent and legal threat in the homeland. and that this core

reasons why arizona has swung so far of left and why georgia has become so purple is because phoenix and atlanta make up a majority of the voting population of those states. whereas you consider, why is still quite rural. one of the reasons why north carolina hasn't quite gotten there for democrats is that charlotte and the research triangle combined only make up about 41% of north carolina's vote. it's still actually a pretty rural state, so this urban/rural divide really rules. >> dave wasserman and jim messina, thank you both very much for being on this morning. >>> still ahead on "morning joe," did jo biden's first 100 days usher in a new era or a stalled revolution. we'll bring in the authors of these polar opposite pieces for that discussion. we'll be right back. pieces for that discussion. we'll be right back. it's my 5:52 woke-up-like-this migraine medicine. it's ubrelvy. for anytime, anywhere migraine strikes, without worrying if it's too late, or where i am. one dose can quickly stop my migraine in its tracks within two hours. unlike older medicines, ubrelvy is a pill that directly blo

think about a place like georgia where the atlanta suburbs have been booming, not so much in the other parts in the state. you have to readjust those congressional lines am you can gain or lose a seat as a party just because, even if you are not gaining or losing a congressional district, right. the good news for democrats, they have more control over the process than they did in 2010, the last time the lines were drawn. the bad news for democrats, the good news for republicans is that republicans still control more than twice as many congressal district lines in terms of, they have total control for drawing that many more lines. that is likely to help, as i said, especially in places that are fast growing, texas, north carolina, but also in a place like georgia where democrats have made really big gains in these last two years, but republicans control the entire line drawing process. and so what you may see there is democrats actually winning two senate seats but in the next upcoming election they may lose a congressional district. >> so much depends on who controls these states, the

you should pay attention, in the city of atlanta, my home town, murder is up 58%. new york city, 40%. even defunding efforts in milwaukee, guess what, homicides there went up a whopping 97%. in chicago, murders this year alone are up 33% over last year's record increase. we've been scrolling the names of murder victims, shooting victims in chicago for years. when biden was vice president, obama's hometown, when he was president, we scrolled names you never heard of before. we begged for action. they didn't lift a finger in obama's hometown. can anyone tonight, can you name the latest round of murder victims in chicago? there were 26 people shot this weekend, five dead. a 7 year old little girl was murdered in a mcdonald's drive through. is anybody paying attention? do you know her name tonight? those are important lives, too. what about the 103 policemen so far this year in this country that have died, most of them shot and killed in the line of duty. their lives matter, too. their families' lives matter. make no mistake. when police are vilified, when they are def

i remember actually going to the presidential library, carter's library in atlanta and walking around like a mondale geek, i'm looking for joan's dress and those kinds of things from the inauguration. on the wall, i see these words that were actually the words that mondale uttered shortly after they lost, summarizing their four years. and he said, "we told the truth. we obeyed the law. we kept the peace." and that was a lot of my touchtone during the trump years. i had written that down in a piece of paper and put it in my purse. we told the truth, obeyed the law and kept the peace. jimmy carter and walter modale were men of integrity. they bonded on that. what was school having worked for mondale at the law firm afterwards and back on side of my races, including the presidential race, i got to see how the two of them kept talking through time. they would work on things together. carter came out from a funeral just a few years ago and he traveled to minnesota and spoke at her funeral. their friendship strengthened after they left office. >> michael beschloss, it was my privilege at my

since atlanta spa killings on march 15, there have been 50 mass shootings in the united states according to analysis according to the gun violence, a kif, local media and police reports. you've long pushed for gun control legislation. we spoke in mid-march. you said because you've failed in the past, that doesn't mean one should not continue and try to if it for change. do you still have optimism tonight? >> i do. listen, the voters did their part. they put in charge of congress majorities that support universal background checks. they put a president in the white house who wants to sign that bill. now it's up to us to deliver. 2013 now, eight years ago, we lost a vote on background checks. and since then, we've been building up political power in the anti-gun violence movement. today we are stronger than the gun lobby. and i think that's part of the reason why i am having, i think, real substantive discussions with several republicans about how we can bring a bill to the senate floor in the next month or two that will dramatically expand the number of gun sales that have to be submitted

if i think about the hospitality industry, i was talking with three restaurant owners here in atlanta just last week who are struggling to find workers as business is coming back online. and we had a lot of conversations about how important it is to train managers. the owners of restaurants, large hospitality companies, no matter how noble the ceo, they are not in those units every day. they're not hiring, they're not coaching, they're not addressing or promoting. so putting the effort on training frontline managers who can do a phenomenal job of attracting, retaining and developing women from within, that is a secret sauce to some of these policies having an impact on the frontline level. >> alex carder, i'm going to go to you but you can take a question to deens, it might be the same one. what is your advice to women right now in terms of approaching getting back in, but they still have a home that is literally defending upon them with kids, the potential positive work remote, the issues of starting all over again when they were completely displaced, which is traumatic? >> you know,

so our partner with the pharmacy in the west end, the rougher part of atlanta and we're out there, going to make it happen for people to get the vaccine right in their neighborhoods so it's very easy. >> now, we talked a lot -- go ahead. >> it has been more difficult for blacks to get the vaccine because people are not doing what damon does. initially only the physicians and medical providers could get it, then the older people. a lot of people did get left behind. >> we talked a lot about the importance of regular testing and the lead up to the commitment march with the vaccine rolling out now. what is the importance of continued testing and other mitigation strategies? >> it is just as important now as it was before. this disease is still killing people and still killing black people in disproportionate numbers than others. it's just as important to wear your mask, just as important to get tested. the vaccine will keep you from getting severe illness or death in most cases, but it doesn't mean you cannot contract the disease nor pass this disease on, so we still need to know whether yo

mayor bottoms, mayor of atlanta. there are people outside the state saying we're not comfortable going in there, so major league all-star game responded not because the values were offended so much so, but players themselves said we don't want to go to a place where we feel unwelcome or a where our voice can't be heard and can't vote. we'll see how hollywood responds because that's an interesting split that we see right now and they don't want to take jobs from front line workers and the jobs will be there, just a different state will get those jobs. >> all right. let me thank both of you for being with us. jerry sonnenfeld and michael walden. my thanks to both of you. up next, my final thoughts. stay with us. ext, my final thous stay with us , it's more treatab. i'm cologuard. i'm noninvasive and detect altered dna in your stool to find 92% of colon cancers even in early stages. tell me more. it's for people 45 plus at average risk for colon cancer, not high risk. false positive and negative results may occur. ask y

a month ago, we were watching the horrible images come in from two-mass shootings in and around atlanta. seems a long time ago, doesn't it? the sad fact is, though, that mass shootings have become so common, it may, soon, be hard for one not to fall on the anniversary of another. this is a map of mass shootings in just the last month, which we're defining as four or more people shot, wounded, or killed, excluding the gunman. one other thing to note. there is only room on the map to show a little less than half. the full count, again, over just a single month since the atlanta shootings is 45 and the map is profound as it might be, doesn't do justice to the story. doesn't capture the horror. it doesn't capture the wounds, and the deaths of so many americans. the map doesn't tell the story of the five people, who were shot and wounded on march 17th in stockton, california. or the four shot in oregon, a day later. in houston, on the 20th, five shot at a nightclub. that same day in dallas, eight people shot and one killed in philadelphia. that night someone opened fire at a party, kill one

just some of the mass shootings in this country in just the past month, from the attacks in atlanta to the massacre in boulder, we're now covering indianapolis tonight. for the third time in a month, the flags now lowered at the white house. this evening here, we are also learning some of the workers at fedex are not allowed to have their phones during their shift, so they were unable to call loved ones to let them know they had survived this, simply adding to the horror of it all. victor oquendo leads us off tonight from indianapolis. >> reporter: tonight, new details into that deadly shooting at an indianapolis fedex facility as we learn a former employee armed with a rifle allegedly opened fire. >> we have an active shooter currently at fedex. >> reporter: just after 11:00 p.m. thursday, officers responding to reports of shots fired at this operations center, fedex's second largest hub in the world, roughly 100 workers present at the time. >> we heard three more shots, and then my buddy levi saw someone running out of the building. >> reporter: police finding eight killed, four outs

i don't care if that's detroit, atlanta, chicago, jacksonville, anywhere in between. not only if you're not black, but a black person that's sympathetic and empathetic to the community. i introduced the world to tommy no norman. you dealt with his community. you got a chance to see him marry a black woman, see him be a person who was sympathetic and empathetic to the people he's policing. no way an officer of the state who is brown should be harassing and spraying in the eyes pepper spray of another brown person. so, that brown person shouldn't be a police officer. i need him replaced with a brown person that understands and will walk and talk that other brown person through in the same way i've seen a 61-year-old white man hit a policeman with a hammer, drive off with a cop in the car and get taken in without being shot. the state is empowering people who look like me and don't look like me to be less empathetic, more sympathetic and more brutal. this must end. if you cannot empathize with the community you're in, you should not be policing that community. >> just go

razor wire is around all five police precinct new york atlanta chicago also preparing. what is the floyd family's message to anybody who wants to go to the street and protest. and i say, no matter what the verdict is. >> well, first of all, i mean, the floyd family is not stopping anybody from protesting. they do want peaceful protesting. they've said once, they've said it forever, justice for george is justice for all. and so now we have to worry about justice for dante wright and adam toledo. i'm in chicago, we have to brace for that tonight. hopefully it will be peaceful here too. this nation is only talking about policing. we need to look at this concept, this issue, and really get serious about reform. but in the meantime, it is totally permissible to be out in those streets exercising your first amendment rights and freedom of speech. >> appreciate your time. thank you. >> and next, congressman jim jordan rips into dr. anthony fauci and maxine waters would have none of it. >> you need to respect the chair and shut your mouth. >> and biden lowering the boom on russ

that would be atlanta. that would be los angeles. baltimore. and dozens of others. we'll keep scrolling and i guess joe forgot that he once worked side by side with a former klansmen. wants to talk about jim crow 2.0. let's talk about joe biden 1.0 with robert byrd kkk. he joined with robert byrd to stop the integration of our schools because according to biden, his words, not mine, he didn't want kids going to schools that were racial jungles. a lot more on this coming up but first joining us with the very latest on the ground again tonight in the brooklyn center, in minnesota, our very own mike tobin. mike, it looks a lot like last night and last night did not end particularly well. >> the crowd is certainly growing out here. an update on the officer. potter has been released from the jail with a hundred thousand dollar bond. her initial appearance is tomorrow. an affidavit said her duty belt was designed with the taser on the left side and the glock on the right side and designed to be used with a corresponding hand. a statement from the county attorney's office

steve osunsami leading us off tonight with late news from the cdc in atlanta. >> reporter: a cdc advisory panel tonight says it needs more time and information to respond to the new concerns about the johnson & johnson vaccine. which means for now, americans should continue holding off using this brand of the covid vaccine. >> we do not have to arrive at a vote today or a recommendation today. if we need more time to think about this, we can reconvene later this week or this weekend. >> reporter: a very small number of women who suffered blood clots after getting the shot caused health officials to put a hold on using the drug. health officials here worry that this potential adverse reaction looks a little too similar to what happened in europe with the astrazeneca vaccine. the astrazeneca vaccine is made using similar technology as the johnson & johnson, and in europe 19 people died. >> there are some rather strong similarities about this with regard to the time frame following vaccination. particularly importantly, the clinical syndrome of these clots together with low platelets. so the

i mean pick the city, buffalo, new york city, denver, colorado, portland, oregon, atlanta, georgia, wherever, they look like they're going to war. they have shields, big equipment, and they do that because they want to let people protesting know who is in charge, who holds the authority, who will bend the knee who whom. that's the point. explicitly, it's a psychological performance. that's what we saw in the streets of minneapolis and brooklyn center, show of force with curfews, tear gas and flash bangs. take all the footage before last summer, since and now. take all that and look for a moment at utter inversion of what happened on the steps of the capitol in january. there was hardly any police presence at all. i mean there were officers there, right? covered multiple protests in washington and tends to be a lot of cops around when people are protesting particularly on the mall and capitol. but january 6th, almost no one there. don't have the big wraps and huge bits of equipment, little stanchions in front of them look like bike racks. but not just fortifying, but notable in the interactio

jonathan serrie, live in atlanta. jonathan, thank you. now capitol hill, intelligence agency chiefs sounding the alarm about threats to the u.s. from china, russia, and iran. they spoke about intelligence challenges at a senate hearing today. congressional correspondent jacqui heinrich shows us tonight from capitol hill. >> from chinese he is mean non-and the origins of covid to iran's nuclear power, russian interference and social media's influence on extremism, intelligence agency heads on capitol hill gave a frank assessment of global threats to the u.s. in the first public hearing of its kind in more than two years. >> the world will face more intense and cascading global challenges ranging from disease climate change to disruptions from new technologies and financial crises. >> china dominated the conversation, fbi director christopher ray saying the threat is so persistent and diverse the fbi opened a new investigation about every 10 hours. and is currently working more than 2,000 probes on economic spying alone. a 100 percent incre

, moved it to denver atlanta is 51% african-american denver is 9% african-american explain to me how a racial social justice warrior takes $100 million out of atlanta hammers the state of georgia to move to a state, colorado, where they have two fewer days of early voting than they do in georgia. this is pure politics and they don't care about the african-american smally businesses, the workers in atlanta that they hurt through their political gesture. >> sean: we thank you for being with us. tensions as you can see on thenn center, minnesota, and unlawful to assembly now declared. showing no signs of leaving. things have ratcheted up considerably since we came on the air 58 minutes ago. >> they certainly have. now watch the officers advancing here, rows and rows, nonlethal weaponry, you hear the command coming out of a police officer to move back, move back, moved back, they are advancing a little bit, you can hear the officers called out to hold, now compare that, going to swing around here and look to the northwest, that's the concentration of people the last time we were on the a

but first, abc's steve osunsami leads us off from the cdc in atlanta. >> reporter: it's the covid vaccine that promises good protection with a single dose. an important tool for public health officials around the world. but tonight, the fda is telling everyone to hold off using the johnson & johnson vaccine. a very small number of women have come down with an extremely rare blood clot after getting the shot. >> this is a really rare event. if you look at what we know so far, there have been six out of the 6.85 million doses, which is less than one in a million. >> reporter: all six women were between 18 and 48 years old. they got sick about 6 to 13 days after getting vaccinated. the clots formed in veins of the sinus and prevented blood from draining out of the brain. one woman died, another in critical condition. there's no evidence showing the vaccine caused the condition, and to be super clear, your chances of getting struck by lightning are nearly twice as high -- one in half a million. but the fda is warning anyone who got the johnson & johnson vaccine in the last three weeks to be o

i am from atlanta and once upon a time, we were up 28-3 in new england patriots so the world saw how that ended. being black american is like being a falcon fan. the outcome is not what you think is going to be. >> the defense began its case today by playing body cam footage from what we have all seen, right? floyd's arrests in may 2018, a year before his death. floyd told her he had been taken multiple pills every 20 minutes and he took one right before officers walked up the car. they're playing the drug use. what's your reaction of the defense today? >> it is character assassination and it happens every single time in a case like this. everybody who seen this case from the people who were there that day to the other cops in the minneapolis police department and all the paramedics responded. everybody sees this and they know derek chauvin is guilty. only thing they have is characterization. >> the jury was attentive today. she said floyd was happy and normal when she saw him inside the cup foods store and he suddenly fell asleep when they got into his car. let me play part of the e
