Agents. The man reportedly had a gun, he was report lid told numerous times that he should drop the gun. He did not do so and a secret Service Officer shot him in the che chest. The man was taken to a local hospital where he was reportedly listed in critical condition. The white house was locked down. The Vice President was at the white house at the time. He was locked down safely. President obama was not at the white house at the time this happened. The important part is that nobody else other than this gunman was injured. With dont know who the gunman is. We do not know what a motive might have been or any other descriptive circumstances under what happened, but we do know the lockdown at the white house around this incident was lifted around 4 00 p. M. Eastern time today. If we learn anything more this evening, well let you know more as we learn more. The other major story were keeping an eye on is, of course, egyptair flight 804. Some wreckage believed to have come from that plane has been found. And theres some late breaking news tonight, necessarily about the cause of the plane crash but it may be major crew as to what was going on on board that aircraft immediately before it fell off the radar. N egyptian airspace. Ultimately it seems it fell into the sea. Weve got that data and potentially what it could mean in just a moment. Weve also got chuck todd coming up, which is very nice to do. Hes got meet the press on sunday, so hes very busy on friday nights, but hes here to give me a reality check on what seems to me like a weirdly important late new development in the president ial race. And i i im telling you it seems weirdly important. I want to get a gut check from chuck as to whether its just weird or important. I cant tell. I know its some degree of both. Were bringing in an expert in a few minutes. Theres a lot to get to tonight. But we start with a whole bunch of new developments on the democratic side of the president ial race and this is all stuff that happened today into this evening. First of all weve got new fundraising numbers from both the Sanders Campaign and Clinton Campaign and theyre interesting. Theyre not what you think. This is what weve got. Both the sanders and Clinton Campaigns have reported fundraising numbers for april. This is last months. Theyre pretty close but Bernie Sanders is still ahead. In april he filed papers indicating they raised basically 27 million. Hillary Clintons Campaign filed paperwork saying they raised 25 million. So theyre both raising tons of money, sanders is ahead, but theyre in the same ballpark there. Look at this. They have to report how much cash they have on hand. You not only raise money, you have to spend it. Those numbers are not similar at all. The Clinton Campaign started this month, they started may with 30. 2 million on hand. Whereas the bernie Sanders Campaign has less than 6 million on hand. 5. 8 million. Thats the cash on hand reporting number from Bernie Sanders as of tonight. So i mean snapshot of whats going on between them . Theyre both still raising a ton of money and raising money at a pretty equal clip, but shes sitting on a lot more money to spend than his eh is. Shes got five times more money. Im not talking super pac money. Thats campaign money. That hasnt been true in the late portion of the race for that has. Been true for a very long time, and that seems like a pretty big deal in terms of whats going on in this race. The carolina kohn campaign has also announced they started working with the dnc, Democratic National committee, to form their general election organizations, to beef up state parties and hire field organizers in eight swing states. The Clinton Campaign has been making a big deal for months now how theyre not just raising money for hillary Clintons Campaign. Theyve also been raising money for dnc and state parties while this announcement today, this represents the first big dispersement of those funds. They say its an initial investment of 2 million to Start Building up Democratic State organizations for the general election in these eight states, colorado, florida, nevada, New Hampshire, north carolina, ohio, pennsylvania, and wisconsin. Eight states. Building up the organizations in those states. Hiring field organizers. Making sure those state operations have what they need for the general election. And that will be music to the ears of democratics. Now that they have settled on their candidate, donald trump and democrats are still in this contested broil on this side. Its going to be music to their ears to hear that its starting. Its going to be music to the ears of the democrats specifically in those eight states especially because in six of those states theyve got republican incumbent senators who are up for reelection this year and who the democrats would very much like to take their seats away. So millions of dollars in new funding, lots of new field organizers hired, beefing up state organizations. Thats all getting under way. Sanders campaign aggressively criticized hillary Clintons Campaign for forming the fundraising with dnc. Sanders criticizing the clinton folks not having enough money they were raising through that joint operation. He said not enough of that money was making its way into the various state parties but at least 2 million of that money that clinton raised, its now being spent in the swing states. And senator sanders is not in a position to do anything like that. Both because he has not raised money for the Democratic Party in a joint effort the way Hillary Clinton has but also the fcc filings makes it like he now has his own money troubles to worry about separate and apart that he could ever help any state democratic parties or wouldbe democratic campaigns in these swing states. 6 million at the start of the campaign this month is tough, especially in california where he needs to do well and where advertising rates are just prohibitively expensive given the media markets in the big populations in that state and just how big that state is. So the democratic president ial primary continues, still being fought out. Still today more starkly than ever before you can start too see the paths of the two Democratic Candidates diverge. These two candidates are going in two Different Directions and all of that news emerged today as a leadership held one of its quarterly meetings in philly. Its not just one big national party. Theres a Democratic Party in each individual state and the heads of the Democratic Party from each of the 50 states all convened today in philadelphia to talk about whatever it is they talk about when they get together. I dont know. But we now know that today a lot of the focus of their discussion was this. This rowdy disorderly ultimately arguably disorderly convenient. Its led to so much pandering and worrying as they look at the clash between sanders supporters and clinton supporters. They have looked at that and theyre worried that maybe the democratic primary is veering into mob seen territory. They have worried that as long as this primary is going on, this might be what it looked like when democrats try to hold meetings or conventions anywhere between now tharnld big National Convention in philadelphia on july 25th. So tonight the chair of the chairs, the chairman of the New Hampshire Democratic Party who also speaks for all of the state chairmen in the party, he is now calling on be f of all Democratic Party chairman in the country for much changes to happen at this late date in the process. He says between now in philadelphia every time they have one of these state Wide Meetings or conventions when they pick delegates, they now want a change. They want somebody at those conventions whos high ranking from the Democratic National committee, somebody from the sanders scam pain and somebody high ranking from the Clinton Campaign. Also 489 hours in advance they want these representatives from each campaign in the dnc to meet in advance of that state convention and agree what the Convention Agenda is going to be and how that thing is going to be run. They want that 48 hours in advance. They also want this which i dont know. This one strikes me as it might be a problem, quote, there must be a commitment from them to make sure the speerks remarks or presentations go without interruption or interference in any manner including auditory or visual distractions from the floor. Knew, i know why people were upset about what happened in nevada with the screaming and the pushing and people needing medical attention and the alleged chair throwing and cursing and all the rest of it. Nobody wants to see that. But no interruption or interfering of any manner including auditory or visual dissfrakss from the floor . I live for auditory and visual distractions from the floor. This is not sunday school. Arent those unpreventable . Arent those unable at some basic human sflevl if theres not going to be any hooting and hole ticks, dont want to be in this politics. Joining us now is raymond buckley. Chair of the New Hampshire Democratic Party. Chairman buckley, thank you very much for being with us tonight. Thanks for being here. Thanks for having me. Can you assure me the rights to hoop and holler will be protected not just in the country but democratic parties even though you erie worried how nasty things got in nevada . I think hooting and hollering is what we all live for at the conventions, but we also want to make sure the delegates are respected and that they act in a respectful manner. Its not really a sporting event. Its actually quasi legislative event and since theres a lot of business that goes on at these state conventions, a significant number are there for the first time. This is probably their first organized convenient other than going to rally or something very close to that. So we think its important that everyone is properly registered, they get into the hall before business has begun, and that every one has the rules properly explained to them and that somebody there is there that they know that they can trust. They dont have a relationship with a lot of the establishment within the Political Parties so they dont have that relationship that if somebody says something that they necessarily automatically believe it. But if theres somebody there officially representing their kaechblts, president ial campaign who says, we talk about it this. We can move on and do this because after all this election is about november. Its about making sure we win the white house, we win the u. S. Senate, it can affect the u. S. Supreme court and win the races up and down the ballot. So its important that people are welcomed. There are thousands of new democrats who are coming to these convenience. We want them to come back. We want them to feel they were heard, listened to and that they were at a place they feel comfortable being at. There arent a ton more state democratic conventions between now and the election in philly. There are a few more. A little more. Okay. But there arent a majority of them left. Theres some left between now and philly. Correct, mmhmm. Does this these changes that you were calling for today. Does that reflect an assessment by you and the other Democratic State party chairs that theres a real threat that nevada is going to happen again, that things are going go that awe the rails or is this thing just defended . Evenly if nevada is a fluke, you want to make sure it doesnt happen again. Nobody was happy. Not the state president ial campaign t state party or those of us from around the country looking on. We simply dont think that that knees to happen. Lets take some preventive measures by everyone working together. This absolutely depends on 100 participation by the Sanders Campaign b i the Clinton Campaign, dnc and each and every one of those state petrs. Everyone working together to make sure this is the best one possible and then head to the general election in a united form. We believe we can do that. Weve got some great people. Its important that everyone feels welcome and respected. Raymond buckley, president of the association of democratic chairs, which means youre chair of the chairs, which means youre a big chair. As long as hooting and hollering is still allowed, i think people will be on board with what youre suggesting. Good luck, sir. Thank you. Thank you. Weve got a lot to get to tonight we have the latest details on the crash of the egyptair flight including so information, what was going on before the crash and some extrapolation that might mean, what other types of crashes that might be like. Weve got that and a lot more ahead. Stay with us. I take these out. To put in dr. Scholls active series insoles. They help reduce wear and tear on my legs, becuase they have triple zone protection.

Civics dorks dont often get a chance to broadcast but this week the almighty jeopardy had the power players. Last night the power player in the hot seat was senator al franken and then i faint and died. On february 15, 2016 i moderated the first Democratic Candidates form rum asking these three how theyd fix the partieses fortunes in the south. Al . Who are Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders, and martin omalley. Nicely done, senator franken. And think you, jeopardy. Its amazing, right . Its weird. I want to be thence to all your questions, forever. Pet moments are beautiful, unless you have allergies. Then your eyes may see it differently. Flonase is the first and only nasal spray approved to relieve both itchy, watery eyes and congestion. No other nasal allergy spray can say that. When we breathe in allergens our bodies react by over producing six key inflammatory substances that cause our symptoms. Most allergy pills only control one substance. Flonase controls six. And six is greater than one. More complete allergy relief. Flonase. 61 changes everything. The eclass has 11 intelligent it recognizes pedestrianss. And alerts you. Warns you about incoming crosstraffic. Cameras and radar detect dangers you dont. And it can even stop by itself. So in this crash test, one things missing a crash. The 2016 eclass. Lease the e350 for 499 a month at your local mercedesbenz dealer. We got new information today about what may have happened on board the egyptair flight that disappeared yesterday morning with 66 people on board. These are automated computer messages that were certainty during the final minutes. Theyre called acars data minutes. They tell us some interesting stuff about the last couple of minutes of that flight. At 26 minutes after midnight two sensors on the cockpits right rear window went off. At the same time a smoke sensor went off in the lavatory thats right behind the cockpit. One mivt later there was an alert about smoke in the avionics compartment. Then another window sensor went off. Three minutes after that, 29 minutes past midnight, then problems were indicated with the pilots flight controls and comput computers. And it was three or four minutes after that the plane started turning wildly and falling from the sky and dropping off the radar. Weve got all that information. That still does not tell us what might have caused those things to go wrong or caused the crash. Certainly it could have been a bomb, it could have been a fire in the cabin. There have been instances in the past where improperly stored cargo caused a combustion. Thats what brought down a flight in the everglades in 1986. They may not eve have been caused by smoke. The New York Times reported today that sensor warnings like these could also be set off by conditions like condensation or sudden drop in air pressure. It doesnt have to be smoke. In any case those are clues. We now know something catastrophic happened onboard that plane. We still dont know what. If it was a terror attack, no one is taking responsibility for it. Given where the first debris was discovered today, finding the rest of the plane and its recorders is going to be a challenge. Where this plane is believed to have gone down its very deep and unforgiving territory. Egypt, greek, french, and american ships an planes are all scouring that patch of the mediterranean. More ships are expected to arrive in coming days. Theyre on a deadline. The black recorder boxes only send out pings for 30 days. Well be right back. I have a blog called daddy doing work, its funny that ive been in the news for being a dad. Windows 10 is great because i need to keep organized. School, grocery shopping. My face can unlock this computer. Thats crazy. Macbooks are not able to do that. Hey
