Of people are working right now, a lot of Law Enforcement people and others. Spoke to members of congress about whatever we can do and a lot of things are being done right now as we speak, condolences to all. We have to get it stopped. This has been going on for years, for years and years in our country. We have to get it stopped. We have done much more than most administrations, and its not really talked about very much, but weve done actually a lot. But perhaps more has to be done. But this is also a Mental Illness problem. If you look at both of these cases, this is Mental Illness. These are really people that are very, very seriously mentally ill. Words and phrases that President Trump did not use today, terrorism, White Nationalism. But the fbi is investigating the el paso case as domestic terrorism in part because of links to a document posted us phrases like hispanic invasion. Where have we heard language like that before . The country puts the name in the bbasket and you pick people out of the lottery. Lets see, this one is a murderer. This one robbed four banks. This one, i better not say. This one, another murderer. Ladies and gentlemen, another murderer. Think of this, do you think theyre going to put their great citizens they have great people like we have great people, do you think those people are going into a lottery . No. This is an invasion. When you see these caravans starting out with 20,000 people, thats an invasion. I was badly criticized for using the word invasion. Its an invasion. But how do you stop these people . You cant. Thats only in the panhandle you can get away with that statement. Only in the panhandle so its a tough situation. But if they change the loopholes, well have it perfectly. When the wall is finished, its going to be great. The president of the United States this spring making light of an audience member who suggested shooting immigrants. Tonight its difficult not to watch the grief across these communities and not think words have consequences. Ill be joined here by top reporters, experts and politicians throughout the night. In the 8 00 hour i will talk to Senators Elizabeth Warren and Amy Klobuchar, both running for president. Mean while, the El Paso Police just gave an update moments ago. Lets watch. Good afternoon. Lets begin. Im Sergeant Robert gomez, El Paso Police department, Public Information officer. This will be our afternoon brief. This will be our last brief of the evening. Next brief will be some time tomorrow afternoon. We will announce it and as we have been doing, we will announce it on the El Paso Police departments twitter page. First, i want to address the crime scene or the crime scene recovery. I can report at this time all of the bodies from the walmart have been removed to the medical examiners office. We have completed that phase of the investigation. The crime scene is reduced to only the walmart and the walmart parking lot. I want to reiterate from yesterday that absolutely no incidents occurredal cie occud at cielo vista mall. We had earlier reports of incidents at the cielo vista mall. I can confirm today the incident is contained only to walmart and walmart parking lot. The Reunification Center im pleased to announce is fully staffed. Joining me from berkeley heights, new jersey, nbc White House Correspondent kelly odonnell. Kelly, our friends at the Washington Post, philip rucker, wrote tonight in looking how the president has responded to this, were no longer asking the question about whether he will respond to a mass shooting or traj dliek thtragedy the way he the past but whether his words will mass the carnage we have seen. What are your sources say how the president is thinking about this . And i know were supposed to hear from him tomorrow at 10 00 a. M. Do we know what he might say . Well, its been a layered response so far, kasie. And what the president revealed in the first wave of his response is the characterize as donoharm president ial reaction, offering the prayers, blessing of the two communities, thanking First Responders. The kinds of comments you would expect. Theyre appreciated but they dont change the circumstance. And a certain distancing and avoiding of the harder situation. The president has addressed in the most simple way a bit of the motivation piece by saying hate has no place in our country. Thats about as close as weve seen him get to a piece that might get to motivate but hes now speaking of Mental Illness, which certainly in many mat shootings has been a component but it raises a question we dont have the answer to, is he somehow conflating Mental Illness with White Nationalism or acts of terrorism, which would be elite, beyond what is in a legal statute and also still raises questions . Is that somehow a way for him to distance himself in terms of the rhetoric that he uses where he often will argue that his words and policies are not a point of igniting the actions of others, and certainly we have seen in many instances where political rhetoric can be something that can inspire people for good and perhaps for less constructive purposes, and we dont blame the individual politicians. But is there an influence . Certainly democrats are pointing the finger much more directly at the president. What the president did not do today when there was ample opportunity to do so was to address the issue of White Nationalism. His own daughter did. She is not only first daughter but a Senior Adviser to the president. She did it in a series of two tweets, where she said the people need to raise their voices against this. This really is the substance of what she had to say, that White Supremacy, like all other forms of terrorism, is an evil that must be destroyed. So she got in front of her own father, the president of the United States, to in some ways get ahead of this issue. The president did say he will speak tomorrow. He even previewed the time, 10 00 from the white house. He also said that he spoke with members of congress, no specifics, suggesting, that there are some steps that could be taken. We did see the president take action after the las vegas concertrelated shooting on bum stock. So are there things constructive he can do . Perhaps. But what we have not seen him do is talk about the connection, if any, to political speech, his own policies, his own tenor and what might be contained in some of the writings or motivations of this particular el paso gunman. So far the president has not done that. Kasie . Kelly odonnell, thank you very much. For more details on the shooting in el paso, i want to bring in nbc news miguel almaguer. Miguel, what have we learned since this tragedy unfolded yesterday . Kasie, as we just heard the walmart over my shoulder here remains a crime scene. Investigators are still here poring over evidence. Its where the gunman unloaded round after round. Were told theres upwards of 3,000 people signed that walmart when the shooting took place but not everybody left with their lives. Run, run reporter as the onslaught of gunfire erupts, chaos turns to carnage at a el paso walmart. The first 911 calls flood in 10 39 a. M. They were pulling people out shot, covered in blood. Reporter the active shooter spraying round after round into crowded families shopping for school supplies. The gunman seen here with his ak47style rifle wearing eye protection. Once he saw people start running from him, you hear pop, pop, pop, pop, pop and increased the round of fire to kill as many people as he could. Reporter with frantic shoppers running for cover and others paralyzed by fear, stores in the nearby mall go into lockdown. The shooter is this way . Reporter 10 45 a. M. , six minutes after the killing spree began, police arrived. Soon after the suspect, Patrick Crusius surrenders. Investigator says they found a racist manifesto and the 21yearold was targeting certain victims. You say the suspect had been cooperating. In what ways . Hes volunteering pretty much information on his own. Reporter he said he expected to die but surrendered . Yes. Reporter with dozens injured, the people were everywhere. Blood everywhere. I said i need to find daughter and the girls. Reporter many desperate to find loved ones. Im tired of waiting and waiting. I want to know where my mom is. Bless those kids. He barely got to see life. Reporter with victims ranging in age from 2 to 82, some of the injured remain in critical condition. Offduty Army Specialist glen oakley saved children separated from their parents. It hurts me, i lost like they were part of me. Reporter tonight a community in shock and grief this, time at a shooting at we walmart packed with families. The police chief tells me the subject expressed no remorse and no guilt after the shooting. He said he was both cold and calculated. Again, that walmart was packed with upwards of 3,000 people. The death toll and the number of those injured could have been so much higher. Kasie . Miguel almaguer in el paso, thank you very much for your reporting tonight, sir. Im joined now by nbc news justice correspondent Pete Williams. He, of course, has been following the shooting in el paso as well as dayton closely. Pete, i wanted ask you about where things stand in terms of this investigation as domestic terrorism and what we know about that screed that was posted online. The domestic terrorism label is a possible federal charge. It seems like they will file hate crime and gun charges, which could lead to the death penalty. This is a sort of standard thing the justice will do in a case like this, they will file the federal charges but let the state go first. Texas will go first on its charges of capital murder charges. Its pretty clear now, investigators now say they strongly believe that Patrick Crusius wrote this internet essay that was posted just 19 minutes before the shots rang out in el paso. And its antiimmigrant, its racist, its antigovernment. He says in the essay he had been thinking about this attack for about a month. He talks about his weapons. He also says, one of the few references to the president , he says that he formed these views long before donald trump came on the scene with his campaign. And he also cites approvingly the shooting in march in new zealand that targeted two mosques and that shooter in turn had supported the norwegian gunman who shot 51 children. So you see this pattern emerging of where these White Supremacists are inspired by other acts of this kind. So this does seem to be domestic terrorism. This does seem to be white supremacist violence. On the other hand from what we know the dayton shooting does not seem to show that. The police chief said theres no evidence at this point of bias, they dont know what the motive is, and complicating this is the fact the gunmans sister and friend were all in the same car with the gunman when they arrived at a parking lot earlier in the evening and then they split up and who knows why the sister was among the victims. The companion was also shot but survived and has been helping police. So two very different it would seem two very different motivations here. Christopher wray, the fbi director was on capitol hill recently warning about this threat of White Nationalism and white supremacist terrorism. What tools does the fbi have to try and combat these kinds of incidents . How is it different our posture has been so focused on islamic extremists for so many years, what are the challenges from turning our attention to fighting this threat . The same challenges that exist trying to resist the people inspired by foreign terrorist propaganda. These are lone actors. They dont often communicate with others. In this case Patrick Crusius they say did post this thing on a violent website but only a few minutes before the shooting. So there was no time to do anything about it. As a matter of fact, its not specific about the target. It doesnt even mention el paso. So thats one problem, they dont communicate with anybody. Who knows whether the gunman in dayton was talking to anyone. Thats the main problem here. But these common investigators look for clues. Pete williams, thank you always for your reporting on this. After you make some phone calls, let us know if you would like to come back with additional breaking news. But i want to warn you our next story includes video thats very difficult to watch. About 13 hours after the mass shooting in el paso, at least nine more People Killed and 27 more injured in dayton, ohio. Officials say a gunman wearing body armor and carrying a 100round drum for ammunition opened fire in a crowded bar early this morning before being shot and killed by police. Authorities identified the shooter as 24yearold connor betts. As Pete Williams pointed out, Authorities Say his 22yearold sister was among the dead. According to dayton police, several officers happened to be near the bar at the time of the shooting, and it allowed them to neutralize the shooter approximately 30 seconds after the first shots were fired. A short time ago Police Released surveillance footage. I want to warn you, some may find it extraordinarily disturbing. You can see people running into the bar as the gunman opened fire and Police Officers on top of the screen engaging with him. The shooter runs into the frame at the bottom righthand corner, attempting to enter the bar before being struck multiple times by police. Joining me now is the mayor of dayton, ohio, mayor whaley, thank you very much for being here with us this evening. Thank you. The First Responders acted so quickly to make sure it was not so much worse than it was but i know your community had a very difficult year. This obviously is a very difficult day. I know you spent a lot of time speaking to victims and their families. What are they talking about to you today . Its a difficult day for dayton, of course, but were completely amazed by the heroic nature of our First Responders. And really in a place like the oregon district, where many day tonyans have a story, where it is very safe, young people convene on a nice saturday night to enjoy time with friends, and for it to be just in the matter of 24 seconds changed so dramatically. Were certainly grateful to the First Responders able to respond so quickly. I believe maybe its the quickest response ever in these mass shooting thats we are grateful for. And now the work is to help the victims, families, and those injured and work to heal our community. At this point what do we know . Weve gotten early details about the shooter, the weapon that he used. Do we know more about how he acquired the were legal or any other thing that could help prevent or at least give us insight how to prevent future events like this . Oh, we know that he purchased the weapon legally. It is an aklike gun, long rifle. He then did for lack of a better word boosted it up to be able to run those magazines and shoot as many people as possible. And i think for us and here in dayton, the question is why would anyone ever need any sort of gun like this . Were certainly in southern ohio, were a place that likes hunting and certainly value people having the right to handguns. But for a gun of this nature to do this kind of damage in 24 seconds begins to ask the question, what are we doing here . Yes. What are the next steps here for your community as you begin to heal . I know theres been conversations about vigils this evening. How do you pick up and move forward after Something Like this . Yeah, the governor wil tonig. There will be a vigil in the oregon district. The oregon district is the neighborhood named by the American Planning Association as one of the best in the country two years ago. Its very walkable. The Business Association felt very strongly we should have the vigil in their neighborhood because it is the communitys place for gathering. We will be doing that tonight at 8 00. And i know the community will come together strong. Weve had a lot of tragedy this summer. In may we were hit with 14 tornadoes that tore through this community, and then the senseless act of violence that happened last night. One tragedy was an act of god, and the other tragedy i believe was completely preventable. Mare nan whaley, thank you so much for taking time out of your evening to join us today. Were, of course, thinking of you and your community as you begin to recover from this horrible tragedy, that as you point out, could have been prevented. Our reporting is just beginning tonight. Senator Elizabeth Warren is going to join me in the 8 00 hour. I will talk to senator Amy Klobuchar as well. First, ben collins joins me in just a moment with what he knows about the suspects in these cases and the online culture that can be Fertile Ground for provi propelling hate. Ovi propelling hate.
