1986. 230 people died. it's been long the subject of conspiracy theories. now, a group of experts too took part in the original investigation saying the explosion that took the plane down was likely outside the plane. outside. that contradicts the official cause. investigators claiming in a new documentary that you can't blame faulty wire for what happened. they want the ntsb to reopen the investigate. while the ntsb rarely reinvestigates information already examined, our investigation is already closed. president obama is in germany where he'll make a speech at the brandenburg gate. but he spent last two days involved in high meetings. brianna keilar live in berlin. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning to you christine, you know when an american president comes to

berlin to give a speech, the bar is set very high, and the aim of this speech of president obama's is to be a grand speech in the vein of what you have seen in the past several decades, as american presidents have come here to berlin. berlin's post-war historical significance makes it a place where we've seen american presidents really kind of do a status check on the state of the free world. and that is what president obama is aiming to do society with a forward look. he'll be talking specifically about the u.s. wanting to see a reduction in nuclear weapons. so he'll be talking about wanting to negotiate with russia to bring the number of weapons in the world down. he'll be talking about pressuring north korea and iran to let go of their nuclear wednesday ambitions. and i think above all, christine, though, this is just very much a big deal when you're talking about the historical significance here. this is almost a week away now, from the 50th anniversary of

president kennedy's speech here his ich bin ein berliner speech that he gave not far from the brandenburg gate where president obama will be speaking. the brandenburoenburg gate significant, mrsignifican. he will be the first president to do that. and you may recall back in 2008, when obama was then senator obama, he gave a speech not too far from where he'll be today, at the victory column, the tear garden, garnering an amazing crowd of 200,000 people. i will tell you the interest level here not that same level although there are a lot of people lining up to get through security to see this speech. >> it was 50 years ago that jfk

>> these programs are critical for intelligence to protect our nation and ally securities. they connect the dots. >> reporter: intelligence officials described safe guards, preserving civil liberties while tracking millions of phone records, numbers, dates and lengths of calls. >> does the nsa have the ability to listen to american's phone calls or read their e-mails under these two programs? >> no, we do not have that authority. >> does the technology exist at the nsa to flip a switch by some analyst to listen to american's phone calls or read their e-mails? >> no. >> reporter: this lawmaker was unconvinced. >> -- verizon disclosures which, quite frankly, trouble me, they trouble me because of breadth and the scope of the information collection, if a capability exists from time to time, it will be abused. >> reporter: to really reassure the public, the bipartisan committee heads wanted to declassify more terror plots the

programs helped foil, but they couldn't. >> if we give all those out, we give all the secrets of how we're tracking down the terrorists as a community, and we can't do that. too much is at risk for us and our allies. >> reporter: all they got is a new number. >> over 50 times since 9/11. >> reporter: dana bash, cnn, capitol hill. the house passed a controversial measure banning abortions after 22 weeks of pregnancy. the bill was approved mostly along party lines. the obama administration is against it and a democrat control senate is not expected to consider it. could immigration reform be good for the nation's bottom line, the congressional overhaul could cut over a trillion dollars from the federal deficit for the next ten years by adding additional taxpayers. however, it would cost $22 billion to implement. that news coming as john boehner telling reporters he would not bring a bill to the floor in a majority of republicans do not support it. that could be a huge barrier. a self-described

conservative republican is defending the irs for its controversial scrutiny of some tea party groups, john sheaffer was a manager of the cincinnati office, he told them that politics never played a role and they were not directed by washington to go after conservative groups. a pro football player in the center. police descended on the home of aaron hernandez tuesday night. they are investigating the death of a 27-year-old man found at an industrial park less than a mile from hernandez's home. si.com said hernandez is not believed to be a suspect but a vehicle rented in his name is said to be a key piece of evidence. and a spreading wildfire near yosemite national park. more than 2,000 firefighters are fighting this. a fascinating blaze being fired by strong winds. the carson's fire has burned 1800 acres. 800 structures threatened by the flames. meanwhile, a wildfire

burning out of control in arizona may have been deliberately set. this one has already consumed 5,000 acres and firefighters have it zero percent contained. officials say the fire was started by people. the exact cause still unknown. scary sights in the skies over denver's airport. a tornado touching down briefly between two runways. people rushed to take shelter in airport bathrooms and other safe spots until the violent winds passed. flights, of course, were diverted elsewhere for a short time. no damage or injuries were reported. last night, you can see online, social media, people sharing their photos from the airport. >> look at the tornado on the runway, honey -- we've got fires, tornadoes, indra peterson is tacking it. >> unbelievable. i can't imagine being at the airport and seeing that. no thank you. yeah, we do have a slight risk out there today. again pretty much in the same area. again, it's a slight risk.

a lot of people not paying attention to a slight risk, but a slight risk is just that. this is the radar from yesterday over denver, 1:00 to 3:00, you can tell how quickly around 2:30 that tornado spawned up. even around the area. again, we're going to be looking for that today. now, the big story remains that dry danger. unfortunately, we're getting drier conditions we knew this was going to happen midweek. notice yosemite, the teens, notice colorado, single digits there. that is not helping firefighters on top of that we're adding warmer temperatures an gustier winds. speaking of california, why are we looking at fires so early? typically, in california, you don't see fires until after the summer, and then into the fall, the santa anas pick up. we didn't see a lot of rain. look how low they are for rainfall. we're already seeing the fires. typical pattern pretty much throughout the four corners. >> bad start. thanks a lot.
