i think the people of jordan understand that. and these kinds of sectarian and tribal fault lines are part of what what we have to get beyond. because they don't work in a modern world. they don't create jobs. they don't put food in the mouths of children this he don't provide an education. they don't create a thriving economy. and that's going to be a central challenge. not just in syria. but across the region and the united states. i think has something to say about that. because part of what makes us a superpower is because we have people of every walk of life. every background, every religion. if they've got a great idea and they're willing to work hard, they can succeed. that's got to be something that's more consistently spoken about. not just with respect to the syrian situation. but i think with respect to this enormous moment of both promise, but also danger in the arab world. and in north africa. julie pace? >> thank you, mr. president. you mentioned the aftermath of the assad regime. there's a lot of concern in jordan

president, thank you to jordan. i hope your success will continue in your visit. >> thank you very much. it is great to be back in jordan. i am glad to speak with my friend king abdullah. thank you to the people of jordan for their extreme warmth and hospitality that i remember well from my first visit as a senator. that thing i mainly remember when i came here was his majesty personally drove me to the airport. i will not tell you how fast he was going, but secret service could not keep up. nevertheless, we are very much appreciative for you welcoming me and my delegation. the reason i am here is simple. jordan is an invaluable ally. it is a great friend. we have been working together since the early years of the kingdom. his majesty's great- grandfather, who gave his life in the name of peace. today, we are working to improve the lives of our peoples. our cooperation helps keep your citizens and hours safe from terrorism. trainilitary police help other security forces in other palestinian territories. i am especia

he's right now in amman, jordan. let's listen in as he's sharing this press conference with king abdullah. right now president obama. >> -- a serious negotiation focus. we're not there yet, but i'm confident it can happen. in part because it must happen. it will be good for the israelis sdp it will be good for the palestinians. i'm very grateful for his majesty's greatness to advance these efforts. as it's been true in the past, his majesty in jordan will be critical to making progress towards a just and lasting peace between israeli and palestinians. and we spent a significant amount of time consulting on syria. i want to commend his majesty for his leadership and commend the jordanian people for their compassion during extraordinarily difficult time for their neighbors. his majesty was the first arab leader to publicly call on assad to step down because of the horrific violence being inflicted on the syrian people. jordan has played a leading role in trying to begin a political transition toward a new government. w

that flood of sir yap refugees one of jordan's problems. that country has long become a military partner of the country. president obama called it an invaluable ally, but challenging times, still growing anger at the jordan king by his own people. jordan is a critical ally and there have been some serious problems with the people. >> president obama has a huge interest in propping up the king. the king may not be under any immediate threat but he has obvious and current concerns. most especially about the rise of the muslim brotherhood in jordan in a fascinating interview in the latest edition of "the atlantic" maybe, king abdullah saud the brotherhood were masonic clothe and wolfs in sheeps clothing and don't believe in the constitution of jordan, they won't swear on the constitution, they will only swear on the constitution of the muslim brotherhood. clearly the king is looking at what has happened in egypt. also looking at what is happening next door in syria, and has very serious concerns about problems at home, shep. >> shepard: sounds

that's had a huge spillover effect on jordan. some 350,000 refugees in jordan. it is a big issue for them. as you said, jordan, a key allie in the israeli/palestinian conflict. jordan is one of only two arab nations that signed a peace deal with israel. a lot on the plate to discuss as president obama gets ready to board air force one and head to jordan today. laura? >>> big day ahead. it continues. thank you very much, tracy. >>> we have an update to breaking news. the chp searching for the driver that struck and killed a woman on interstate 280 in san jose. that happened earlier this morning. she was found in the southbound lanes near mclaughlin avenue. this happened around 3:15. right now, caltrans crews arriving on the scene trying to help with the cleanup. investigators say they still don't know exactly who this woman is or what she was doing out on the freeway in the first place. our bob redell is live on scene. he will bring us the latest coming up at 6:45. >>> a peninsula man facial dui charges after officers say he drove the wrong way on interstate 280

into jordan. there is a similar burden experienced in lebanon and turkey. and the conflict has crept ever more closely to the syrian/israeli border with fighting now in the golan heights. i think the most valuable peace of this in terms of syria is just the president getting the perspective from the neighborhood. how urgent is this and whether there is in fact something more that the international community or particularly the united states can do. so the president has taken a very cautious approach to syria. it will be interesting to see if those calculations change once the trip is over. >> you mentioned the international community. the pressure on the president now. not just coming from international leaders like king abdullah. back here, senator john mccain has joined with senator carl levin to urge the president to action. he sent a letter to president obama and in that letter he said in part, the longer the conflict in syria goes on, the worse its consequences are becoming. the potential use

and really quickly, the president's stop in jordan, p.j., announcing 200 million aid to jordan to help with the syrian refugees that we've talked about. >> sure. >> how much of a difference is that going to make? >> well, it's a down payment. as the king said last night, one of the refugee camps in jordan is now the fifth largest city in that country. put that in perspective, it would be adding a philadelphia to the united states, and needing to support that. the longer this goes on the more help that jordan's going to need. it's a fragile society. so the king said millions is helpful but eventually billions will be required. >> okay, p.j. crowley, martin fletcher, good to she you both. thanks, guys. >>> in this week's office politics i talk with msnbc's chris hayes, host of "up" which starts in about 20 minutes or so. we're going to have to explain all the noise in chris' office. i cannot believe he can get any work down in there. we're going to get to that at the end of 9 piece. but i began by asking chris about the president's priorities during this week's trip to the middle east. >

some of this has helped jordan, and i have been announcing that my administration will provide jordan with an additional $200 million in budget support as it cares for syrian refugees and jordanian communities affected by this crisis. this will mean more assistance with basic services including education for syrian children so far from on, whose lives have been up in did. ended.n up- as parents, we can only imagine how heartbreaking that must be for any parent, to see their children having to go through those kinds of tumult they are experiencing. as our partnership improves, the lives of not only the jordanian people, but people across the region. your majesty, i want to express my great appreciation for our partnership. i want to thank you and the jordanian people for the hospitality you have shown me, and for my fellow americans. this is my last visit. -- i am looking forward to tomorrow, weather permitting, seeing one of the greats waters of history, that the world can experience thanks to jordan and its people. thank you. >> yes? >> thank you, your majesty. mr. president. i want

he was in jordan today, mark. in israel, he's trying to patch things up with netanyahu, with prime minister netanyahu. but he also talked a lot there about new thinking is needed. he said that to both the israelis and palestinians. what are you seeing from this trip? >> i saw the clock turn back five years. i saw the charismatic, eloquent, inspiring barack obama of 2008 arrived in this country and captivated the nation. i thought the speech in jerusalem was evocative and-- of that standard. i thought it was fresh. it was inspiring. it was elevating. it was eloquent. he spoke candidly to both sides. he talked about the importance of-- he reached across the generational divide to younger israelis. i mean, to people who had been-- not stuck in-- junk and you were were surprised by that. >> i think the white house played it very smart. i have to be honest. the phone call today that margaret and you discussed about-- from prime minister erdogan, putting prime minister on the phone, apologizing for the flotilla deaths a

many american viewers do not know that jordan is in political turmoil. the king is facing serious economic and political challenges. not just from the islamist position. from his own tribal base. jordan is bankrupt. literally you have $3 billion in deficit, annual deficit every year. and employment is double digits. as you said, not only do you have a class divide, you have major socioeconomic divide between the ruling class and the rest of the opposition. more than 40% of jordanians are basically living in poverty. not to plepgs that as you suggested earlier, most of the population in jordan are palestinians so the palestinian/israeli conflict weighs very heavily on the king. and it is for the first time after the arab spring, the king's ledge gitimacy is being challenged. not only from his own tribal base, and this is the situation for the king. that's why president obama is in jordan today to shore up the king and provide some financial assistance as he did, $200 million on top of the $500 million annually that the united states provides to the kingdo

>> they entered jordan on saturday afternoon. about an hour-and-a-half ago, at the 21 peacekeepers were brought to the headquarters of the jordanian armed forces and were greeted by jordanian officials. they do not make any statements. they seem healthy and unharmed. the officials made statements welcoming all. they said that they were happy to see them safe and sound. what we understood from some of our sources is that at the beginning jordan was a bit hesitant and reluctant to let them lead cirio -- area through jordan. they do cooperate with the armed rebels when it comes to issues like transporting refugees into jordan. when it comes to striking deals and official agreement about the handover of hostages, jordan is not at that stage yet. they reject the request. it later because jordan actually participates with many of its forces and many peacekeeping missions, they allow them to come in. we understood that they were transported by the armed rebels who also gave an account that the u.n. convoy did not arrive earlier on satur

about this fight spilling into jordan. and jordan is having an economic crisis on its own anyway. the government cannot deal with this crisis. it is not just a humanitarian crisis, but fundamentally, a big political crisis. >> are the fighters link to these serious opposition detained peacekeepers? how dangerous of an escalation in the conflict is that? >> this conflict, in a way, it is overflowing the banks. it is going up everywhere. this episode on the golan heights is small compared to what is happening elsewhere. >> do you think that john kerry is saying the u.s. supports other countries are mindy syrian rebels, and you think that is a shift in rhetoric? >> i think it is actually a great disappointment. the secretary of -- promised the syrian opposition that they have a new policy. they did not want to attend the meeting in rome. he told them there's a new policy. he promised a new policy. he now wants to see the end of bashar al-assad, but the american government does not want to help this rebellion. and the only way the held really mean something is to arm this rebellion. a

this is one of the problems we face in political reforms in jordan. we're still living in the shadows of the cold war. during the cold war, it was more sort of the monarchy that were like the west and the republics that were aligned to the soviet union. and so maybe you have seen the reaction more in the republics than you have in sort of the countries that are either emirates or monarchies. but this is what makes the transition. to political form more difficult. in any country, 90% of the people are averse to being aligned to political parties. although we had this wonderful parliament outcome of 56% plus way beyond, i think, anybody's expectations. the challenge now and i see in jordan, specifically, the hard work for us is actually creating that political party culture. for jordanians to be part, still something wrong. so, the challenge we have over the next four years. hard work. i think the easiest part of arab spring is behind us. >> what would you like to see happen in syria? you are facing an extraordinary crisis and i think people need to rem

fox news alert for you now, because you're looking live in amman, jordan. the president is about to hold a news conference with king abdullah ii and the minute that happens we'll bring you there live. well, there's controversy over a new york state tip line that allows people to report illegal gun owners to police in exchange for money $500. it's been in play for about a year, long before governor andrew cuomo signed a tough new gun control law. tips are supposed to be turned over to local law enforcement and we understand some have never gotten a tip and others say they didn't know the hot line existed. and the state plans to run public service announcements to get the word out. well, this comes as the state's new gun control law is getting growing pushback from second amendment supporters. the national rifle association brought a lawsuit brought by gun owners and rifle association and argue at that key provisions of the law, like a lower limit on magazine capacity actually put law abiding citizens to a grave disadvantage to criminals. supporters say the l

jordan admits mistakes were made in his department. >> jordan says he's not prepared to apologize to chow band. >> suddenly, you know, i was put all over the tv, the internet and i was scared and nervous for my life. >> and his attorney claims he was falsely arrested, accused and mistreated. jordan says. >> we're seeking additional witnesses. tonight, the chief says it's time to respond to these allegations. >> i preach transz parn si to the community. to the department. it's part of my vision for policing in oakland. >> the dmt is in the process of under going major restructuring. captains will be in charge of key neighborhoods. the first area to see the chapg, the bell district to the san leandro border. >> i feel that there's so many things that we don't know about in the police department. >> gwendolyn thomas pays close attention to city politics and her chief. and she believes his hands are tied by the mayor. >> they don't come out until we're either paying for something, you know, like a lawsuit or paying something off. >> unfortunately, we had matters open as it should be and
