Our Prince Georges County bureau chief has been at the scene all day ask joins us now live with new tracee . Reporter no major injuries, thats the good news, and i also can tell you that investigators are trying to figure out the cause of this fire. Theyve been interviewing the workers who were inside when it started, but they really need to get inside and some structural issues could delay that from happening for some time. If you look behind me you can see a very different picture from earlier today. They now have water on that building from four different directions. This is a major change, and whats been happening with this fire that burned out of control for most of the day. And firefighters say theyre going to be here all night.

Reporter two injuries here, a firefighter who suffered from exhaustion, overexertion. He was taken to the hospital. A civilian had problems breathing as well. Everyone is expected to be okay.

Four demonstrators were arrested after lighting up a joint on the east side of the capitol. Many of those who were taken into custody were also arrested on thursday when protesters tried to hand out free marijuana on the hill. News4s Meagan Fitzgerald joins United States from the capitol with details today. Meagan . Reporter jim, there were about 20 people who came to the capitol, many of them took to the microphone to describe why they feel marijuana should be legalized. Once they started to smoke joints on capitol grounds, thats when Police Rushed in. I come in peace. Cannibis is peace. Cannibis is love. Reporter thats what marijuana means to those who demonstrated on federal property right near the capitol steps. But once they started to spark up. Everyone medicates differently.

Reporter some speakers shared emotional stories about marijuana. This woman said it saved her little girls life. My daughter went from 50 to 60 seizures a day, sometimes 12 to 15 minutes long. Since shes been medicating with cannibis, zoe is 91 seizure. Free. Reporter others tried to make the case that its less harmful than tobacco and alcohol. We have people doing life in prison for a plant that hurts no one. Reporter but not everyone believes marijuana should be legalized. Many think its a gateway drug to dangerous substances and argue that it shouldnt be used by anyone, especially children. But despite what opponents and the federal law has to say, some of these demonstrators refuse to be now, some of the organizers of this demonstration tell us that we can expect im going to pause while the ambulance goes by. But organizers are saying, we can expect to see more of these protests and demonstrations until Congress Listens to their demands. Back to you. Meagan, thank you. The nations battle against synthetic marijuana is spreading inside the federal prisons. Later this week, the head of the u. S. Bureau of prisons will be telling a Congressional Panel that synthetic drugs are an emerging threat within the prison walls. The agency says its responding by adding some new wholebody images devices and some walkthrough metal detectors to try to keep the contraband out. Theyre also fighting to stop drones from delivering these drugs. A technique that was recently attempted by criminals outside of maryland state prisons. The prison head will be testifying on wednesday before the u. S. House judiciary cote after a march and protest on capitol hill today. Seven people were taken away in handcuffs after kneeling and singing prayers in the middle of the heart Senate Office building. Police asked them to leave, but the group refused. They were protesting trumps immoral federal budget proposal. The protesters are worried about cuts to programs that help children, the elderly and those with disability and use that money for war and to build a border wall. We are now less than a week from trumps 100th day in office, and the potential yet again for another government shutdown. Congress has until friday to reach a new budget deal to keep the lights on for most agencies, but despite the republicans controlling the white house and congress, theres still the possibility of a partial shutdown. And the big sticking point, the white house saying that the money for the es proposed border wall with mexico must be included. One issue that the wall street journal is reporting is that no congressional members who represent communities along that border actually support funding the wall. And while the president has not lost his base, the latest nbc news wall street journal poll shows him at an overall Approval Rating of just 40 . So joining us now is nbc senior Political Editor mark murray. So the administration is making a huge push to get something legislatively passed, a big win, before this 100day mark. But outside of washington, is the country measuring him by 100 days . Or is this as sean spicer said, an artificial benchmark . You know, it is an artificial benchmark, although one that every president since the world war ii era has gone under. Fdr was the famous president dealing with the first hundred trump versus barack obama, we are able to measure apples to apples. And right now, President Trumps job Approval Rating is just 40 . It was 61 for barack obama. 56 for george w. Bush, and 52 for bill clinton. So we are able to measure, at least trumps start versus these other president s. This border wall issue that he is saying is critical in order to get this budget passed that we dont have a shutdown. The idea that lawmakers who represent those border communities are all against it, republicans and democrat, is that going to be something he has to push back against . It complicates the math. If you have republicans who are against something and every democrat is going to be opposed, that means you need republicans to push it across the finish line. You need a unifying republican party. When you go to the senate, you need 60 votes. That means theyre going to need 8 democrats given republicans only control 52 senate seats. And if we have another shutdown, Republicans Control Congress, they control the white house, whos going to get blamed for this . You never know until it happens, but the polls weve seen so far show that most americans do know that Republicans Control Congress and the white house, and usually when you have that combination, youre going to get the blame. All right, mark murray, thanks so much. Good talking to you as usual. Thanks, wendy. Meanwhile, former president obama making a return to the spotlight today, what he said and didnt say during his first speech since leaving the white house. And the Airline Industry once again in the uncomfortable spotlight after video of that confrontation between a Flight Attendant that left a mother in tears. This is edgar, hes known as dr. Matt. A short time ago, sonny disappeared, but it took a cop to bring sonny back again. The story coming up. You keep looking at me and what you did to that lady. Keep it quiet. I can see exactly what you did. Maybe youll be all over the news. Ooh, another black eye for the Airline Industry over the weekend. This video shot on an American Airlines flight on friday, it shows a Flight Attendant arguing with a man who came to the defense of a woman on the plane, you can hear her crying after the Flight Attendant pulled a stroller away from her nearly hitting her baby. That woman has an attorney. Its the same attorney representing the man dragged off the united flight earlier this month. Nbc News National correspondent tom costello is speaking exclusively with that lawyer tonight and he joins us live from new york. Tom, what is the attorney trying to accomplish by taking on both these high profile cases . Well, i think number one, hes cin best he can for his clients. He says hes not sure hes going to take any legal action against American Airlines. The case of that woman you just showed, because he says, they did everything right after the fact. They immediately apologized. They suspended the Flight Attendant, upgraded her to first class, and they gave her a thousand dollar travel voucher. Contrast that to United Airlines two weeks ago, spent the first two days blaming dr. David dao for the incident, accused him of being belligerent before united did a mea culpa and said, stop, we were completely wrong, dr. Dao is not to blame at all. And united has spent the better part of two weeks apologizing backwards and forwards, and the Security Officers who dragged him off the plane, as you know, have been suspended. So if you talk about the big picture, then the attorney is saying he thinks that we and the country need to be really trying to get the airlines to remember who the focus and that is the paying public, the people who pay to take a flight, is not every customer is going to have a legitimate grievance. Sometimes its going to be petty and as we all know, people can be rude and obstinate, but its important to keep in mind they had paid for an Airline Ticket and according to demetrio, Many Airlines have forgotten that and now were seeing as a result of that, these incidents, which he says are not representative of the Flight Attendants out there or the airlines in general, but they are symptomatic of a problem as it relates to customer service. As a lawyer representing these passengers, tom, does he have any advice for all of us flying in future now on how we handle incidents on board or what we need to keep in mind . Most of his advice goes to the airlines because hes arguing of course that theyre the ones to blame, not the passengers. But ive talked to a lot of advocates for passengers as well as flight attennt passengers perspective to the Flight Attendants, we know you have a tough job, we know youre under stress. Smiles can do a lot to diffuse the problem. And as you know, from the Flight Attendant perspective, they are saying, listen, we are understaffed. We would like to get back to the Staffing Levels we had before 9 11. And aircraft now have many more seats in them. The airlines have jampacked seats into the aircraft, ask that means all of us are sitting closer together, no legroom, no elbow room. Often times theres no space in the overhead, and therefore tempers flare. So its not one or two simple reasons. Its a whole bunch of reasons this has come to where it is today, and the solutions may be many as well. Tom costello, thanks so much. And for what its worth i flew back from new orleans this weekend, and i got a total of four have a nice day byebyes when i left the plane. I gotta tell you, ive now heard from six p theyve also said the same thing. Just a minute ago, i was talking to an anchor in raleigh, north carolina, who said the same thing, i think the message has gone to the airlines, be on your best behavior. Thats a good thing. Tom, well look for your report on nightly news with lester hol holt at 7 00 tonight. We have an unusual story involving a missing docka tu. The bird has now been found.
