Im Sheinelle Jones alongside craig melvin and dave price and stephanie ruhle. Good morning, dave. Lets start with the shocker. Ten days away is the president ial election. Hillary clinton is urging to make more details public that the fbi is looking into more emails of the investigation of her private emails server. Lets get the latest from justice correspondent pete williams. Reporter craig, good morning. These emails were found when they were investigating another case. The Officials Say it is the investigation of former Congress Member Anthony Weiner. The fbi has been looking if weiner sent sexually explicit texts to a girl. He used a laptop and his wife, huma abedin, used the same computer to email Hillary Clintons private serv server address. The fbi wants to see if it has classified information and the new bunch of emails has been found and it has to be reviewed. Officials say they have not reviewed the emails and have no idea what is in them. It is possible they could be duplicates of what the fbi has already seen. There is no way it could be done by election day. As for comey, he sent a note to all employees saying it would be not right to notify the public. Given the discovered emails, i hope i dont want to give the impression in trying to strike that balance. To be clear here, how many emails . Reporter they have not given us a specific number. They say it is in the thousands. Pete williams in d. C. This morning. Thank you. There was swift reaction from Hillary Clinton and donald trump overnight. Nbcs Kristen Welker is in white plains, new york with what both camps are saying. Good morning. Reporter sheinelle, good morning. Hillary clinton is going to florida where polls show it is a tight race. Now her campaign is in full damage control mode after the october surprise that could upend the entire race. Thats why it is incumbent upon the fbi to tell us what theyre talking about. Reporter Hillary Clinton trying to reclaim the narrative after the bombshell news. Fbi director james comey looking into more emails. The director himself has said he doesnt know if the emails referenced in the letter are significant or not. Reporter at the arranged press conference, Hillary Clinton asked if it would fuel voters lack of trust. I think people made up their minds about the emails. Reporter donald trump wasting no time capitalizing on the news yesterday in new hampshire. This is bigger than watergate. Reporter trump, lagging in the polls, grappling with his controversi controversy seizing on the case. The fbi would not open up this case if it were not an egregious offense. Reporter now sounding a different note on the fbi. I give them the great credit for the courage to right the horrible wrong. Reporter republicans close to giving up on trump piling on. House Speaker Paul Ryan pushing to suspend all classified briefings for secretary clinton until this matter is fully resolved. The New York Post with the headlines out of the front page. And the fbi discovered the emails may be pertinent to the investigation on the device weiner shared with his estranged wife huma abedin, clintons top aide. This could not come as a worse time for clinton with ten days until election day. Most polls showed her in the lead. Touting the strong early lead. We are happy to go to arizona. Reporter moments after that, the news broke mid flight. The candidate caught off guard. How did you find out . Same way you did. Reporter and Vice President joe biden was asked about the fact that former Congress Member Anthony Weiner is at the center of the probe. His response, i should not comment on Anthony Weiner. Im not a big fan. As for the race, trump is lagging in most polls and we are learning he is loaning his campaign 10 million. A cash infusion he hopes to help come back. Sheinelle. Thank you, kristen. There is a lot to talk about here. I want to bring in chief Legal Correspondent ari melber and the republican strategist and josh barrows. Josh, you recently changed your Party Affiliation from republican to democrat. Clearly showing this is an exciting election. Ari, i want to start with you. This decision on director comeys part. This is opening a hornets nest. All of us and the Justice Department and Hillary Clinton found out like the rest of us. Does this mean it is a foregone conclusion what is in the emails is explosive or could it be a prosecutor tying up loose ends . It is most likely tying up loose ends. The letter is unobjectable for what it says. I think comey is doing what he should do. Update testimony. He told congress we are not reading anymore emails. Now he has people looking at newly discovered emails. The reaction is as we reported is much bigger. Because the letter was vague or cr cr cryptic, he is doing what he needs to do. Josh, congress has an obligation to learn about the emails. Does he has an obligation to the voters who are going to the polls in 11 days . Yes. While i think it is likely what they found is there is a laptop on which huma abedin, an employee of Hillary Clintons, would email Hillary Clinton. It is likely these are duplicates of ones we found. We dont know that yet. The fbi doesnt know that yet. They have an obligation to say what they know. They have an obligation to figure this out. What voters say does this matter . Did we learn about any new wrongdoing . There is no indication of any wrongdoing. This research of the story and causes people to wonder. Sara, ill bring you in. Hillary clinton diehards dont care. They are voting for her. Same thing for the others on the other side. What about those in the middle . Does it reinforce the narrative of she is not trust worthy . You could not have a worse story for Hillary Clinton that she is secretive and evasive. If she could redo that decision to have the private server in her basement, i bet she is thinking about that today. I dont think it will change minds unless we hear from comey. He will have to say we found emails that were not disclosed. I think we are running out of time for that. I wonder if some of the previously deep red states they thought they were moving on the map. Texas, georgia, that in fact those will move away. To be clear, roughly 15 Million People have cast ballots in the country. Through absentee or early voting. Lets assume the polls hold, ari and Hillary Clinton becomes the president of the united states. Does this guarantee we are going to see incessant investigating during her administration . Im reminded from the term from the 90s. Criminalization of politics. The idea every disagreement is a moral failing. Everything that happens that people dont like is grounds for a scandal and Endless Round of investigation. I dont think that is how the prosecution can work. That is not what the voters really want. There is a problem that something that was once on the fringe. The idea your opponent should be jailed, quote unquote lock her up, should be main lined. He could lose the election and we could live with a lot of the consequences of trumpism for a long time. No matter what your party, if you think the results of a political disagreement should involve jailing of opponents, there is a lot of that before you knew the facts. That is why the partisan reactions to this. That is unfortunate. Take the law and put it aside. Lets talk pr and perception. If you are Hillary Clintons camp right now, what do you do . I think you want to change the subject as quickly as possible. How can you . It is hard. People will speculate in the emails absent the information. In the weird way, the best indication of the election has been the change rate with the mexican peso and american dollar. Thats what i always say. I have been saying that. It is a good point. In the first debate, Hillary Clinton did great and the peso rose 2 over the dollar. When this news broke, there was a move half as large in the other direction. The markets are telling us this matters. On the other hand, Hillary Clinton was favored to win before the first debate. Still favored after the first debate. That is not the market saying this is a total game changer and trump will win. This is a negative story for her. If i am her, i want to get back to talking about donald trump groping women. This is a lifeline for the Trump Campaign . It is, but they needed a life boat. The election when it has been about Hillary Clinton and has hurt Hillary Clinton. When it has been about donald trump, it has hurt donald trump. She will try to shift the topic here. But donald trump loves taking that bait. I would not doubt if we are back to donald trump all the time. Sara, josh, ari, great conversation. Leave it to the guys from Business Insider to get us back to that. I always try to get currency in there. Lets get to the big night in chicago and the moment cubs fans have been waiting 71 years for. The north siders hosting game three of the world series at wrigley. The excitement short lived after losing 10 to the indians. Nbcs ron mott still on duty outside Wrigley Field this morning.
