meeks: i understand. mr. powell: what is driving up wages suggest there is a role there for the minimum wage increases. states have seen -- there is a noticebly higher increase. but it is broader than that and the factor is very low unemployment and strong labor market. mr. meeks: the other concern that i have, it seems as though unemployment goes lower, et cetera, it is still when you look at black unemployment it remains double that of white unemployment and stays that way whether it is a down cycle or up cycle. any signs of how we close those gaps? because there are always gaps that happen between the african-american community and whites. mr. powell: there are persistent gaps and very troubling and they are not in the long run that monetary policy can address. it is up to other policies by governments, state and local governments and federal government and businesses do. we have an interest rate tool and what we can do is support the goals you have given us. we see positive effects from that but over the

. >> you have prominent african-americans like mariel bowser endorse him and gregory meeks. >> one of the things that's important to the african-american community is closing that wage gam. he has a plan on closing the wage gap. there are substantial things that michael bloomberg has done that he can speak and in a positive way in regards to the african-american community. he has some great plans he can do and will do as president of the united states. >> and you were with bloomberg covering his event in north carolina. you talked to some african-american voters there. that did they say? >> they kind of brought up the similar argument, that they have accepted his apology, they're willing to move on and they compared what he said to what trump has said over the years. they have been dealing with that in states like north carolina and tennessee where they know a lot of trump supporters and they hear a lot of potentially racist comments from some of the supporters that they're around. and they said that what bloomberg was mild compared to what they have heard from some of those supporter

those endorsements include lucy mcbath, stacy placik and gregory meeks and in a national poll bloomberg surged to second place among black voters. but all this comes in the midst of the newest controversy southerning an old controversy, it has to do with newly surfaced audiotapes from 2015 which will become relevant in a moment in which the former mayor defends new york's stop and frisk policy. benjamin dixon posted audio of a speech of bloomberg from 2015 in which bloomberg defended new york city's controversial stop and frisk program. nbc news has verified that recording, the aspen institute said bloomberg's staff asked for it not to be released. listen. >> hindsight is 2020. but as crime continued to come down as we reduced stops and as it continued to come down in the next administration to its credit i see we could and should have acted sooner and acted faster to cut the stops. i wish we had. i'm sorry that we didn't. >> president trump seized on this sending a now deleted tweet calling blamberg a total racist. the white house was asked why the tweet was deleted. bloomberg said i i

. >> greg meeks the congressman i have on, one of the big names in the congressional black caucus, he was against mike bloomberg every time. remember they extended the new york city charter to let bloomberg be mayor a third term. >> 12 years. >> and he was against him and stop and frisk was an issue. think about how desperate the calculus must be for democrats if you are going to be for someone you were against three times and not because of the color of his tie, about an issue that mattered to your constituency and lets you know the level of desperation going on in that party. >> that's going to be a big topic to come because african-americans are struggling with this whole stop and frisk thing. but at the end of the day this is again my own unscientific survey what people are willing to forgive or at least give someone a chance about because the number one thing to them is to beat this president. and they think that maybe micha michael bloomberg might be the one. we shall see. >> i had a great fan today and she said, you know, stop talking about the african-american voters as if it'

would have a hip hop or -- when jay z made this deal and part of it was that you have these concerts, meek mill and meghan trainor the beginning of the season, that made no sense, but now at the super bowl, i understand it. it's miami. j.lo and shakira make sense. but miami also has a long history of hip hop and robb especially in the south. you thought it would have been a little bit more, to use the word diversity with the halftime show. you thought maybe it would have happened this year. we see it hasn't unless there's some surprises tonight. but not a headliner. >> still looking for the fruit of this partnership. we'll see what that is. maybe it will be more evident tonight. care ron phillips, thanks so much. >> thanks for having me. >>> the congressional budget office is projecting a federal deficit of $1 trillion. more than that in 2020. while the president touts the stock market and job numbers, those might not tell the whole story. we all use our cell phones very differently. so, she's always on social media. he's always watching sports. someone's video chatting her friends. my par

and so, i would stand there and say, meek young men grow up in libraries, believing in the duty to accept the words of cicciaro, bacon and lock. chr cicciaro bacon and lock were young men themselves. history teaches on this side of the grave. but once in a lifetime, that long tidal wave of justice rises up and hope and history rhyme. i would practice and practice and practice. i was determined to overcome it. i was led to believe i could. and i basically did. what's the one thing you are concerned about most when you have a real problem and it's devastating to you? and someone comes up and says, you know how you feel and you know they have no idea how you feel. but someone comes up to you and says, i have been through this. i can tell you, i know how you feel. tell me. because all people are looking for is to say, you made it. it's possible to make it, huh? it's possible to make it. >> now, here's what i would ask you to do. all right? if you are open to anything democratic, if you made up your mind and you're going to vote for trump, that's fine. you're following us to see who you're aga

this, from new york congressman gregory meeks. >> i don't think this is going to work this time. i think african-american voters are going to look and determine who is the best person to beat donald trump. who has the policies that benefit them? >> harris: joining me now, john lot, president of the crime prevention research center. he has written a compelling op-ed. you can check it out on foxnews.com. good to have you. first of all, you've got a sticking point with this. what is it? >> it's good to talk to you again. look, the issue of stop and frisk is separate from the actual content of his comments. this claim that 95% of murders are committed by young male minorities in virtually all the cities in the united states is an absurd comment. the notion that just because somebody is young, minority, and male, the police should be able to "throw them up against the wall and frisk them," it just doesn't make any sense. it's one thing to go and say that, let's say certain groups commit crimes at relatively high rates. maybe 50%, a little over 50% of murders in the united states are c

there was meek turnout in detroit, milwaukee, philly. your job as a candidate is to get those people out of their homes and churches and into the polls -- i mean to vote, not what the polls are. >> let's look at this. it's a national poll. bernie sanders in the lead at 25%. joe biden at 17%. mike bloomberg, 15%. elizabeth warren, 14% and pete buttigieg, 10%, and klobuchar, 4%. what do numbers like that mean for candidates when they leave new hampshire? >> mike bloomberg has proven you can spend $250 million on television and more on digital and buy yourself at least 15%. he is now in a tie with joe biden for second at the national level. we know national doesn't matter. what matters is the states. it's telling you mike bloomberg is moving numbers. in this poll, we also see the more extraordinary thing, which is that mike bloomberg has the support of 22% of african-americans, which puts him five points below joe biden who the entire his premise of his campaign, hanging by a thread here in new hampshire, is that he will go to south carolin

this is gregory meeks on msnbc. york.m from n new michael bloomomberg ran three times. i did not support him three times, primarily because of stop and frisk. it was a bad policy. the same time, i also understand michael bloomberg w wanted to gt guns out of the community so ininnocent people did d not get killed. afafrican-american voters are vy phisticateted. they vote their interests. they know their interests is making sure donald trump is defeated. that i is absolutely their interest. they're going to move in the direction they thinknk, who is e best person n to to be donald trump? who was also going to talk about their agenda? amy: mayor bloomberg has also formed mike for black america. meanwhile, your times columnist wrote a new opinion piece "let me plant the steak now. no black person or hispanic person or ally of people of color should ever consider voting for michael bloombeberg d the primary. his expansion o of the notoriouy racist stop and frisk program in new york which swept up millions of innocent new yorkers, primarily young black and hispanic men, is a

congressman gregory meeks told me that he was looking for someone that could unite the party and beat trump, and he saw that in bloomberg, and not in someone like biden. whether bloomberg can move past these remarks on the other hand as we move closer to the primaries remains to be seen. he still isn't on the ballot anywhere, although he's moved up a little bit in national polling among african americans. >> and moved up significantly in national polling period. nicholas wu, appreciate it. >>> mike pompeo is mixing it up with world leaders at a security conference in germany. it's known as a conference and forum where western nations and allies can air public disagreements. >> defense secretary mark esper addressed the gathering this morning, and house speaker nancy pelosi is there leading a de delegation of dozens of members of congress. >> courtney kube is joining us in munich. what can you tell us about the debate and is there any word on the agreement with the taliban which we have been reporting on the possibility of this week? >> reporter: there was a little word on that, and yo
