5:00 pm
we'll see you again here tomorrow night same time, same tomorrow night same time, same place. -- captions by vitac -- www.vitac.com >> hey, good evening, thanks for joining us a brief break in gaza and hamas saying it will stop firing, as well. not soon enough, though, for a group of boys killed by naval gunfire in gaza or for an israeli man. we'll look beyond the temporary seize fire, when and whether the two sides can agree on a longer truce. >> later, the alleged killer call girl, the woman with a stable of two dead. we begin keeping them honest with a serious problem that deserves serious consideration. the arrival of tens of thousands of undocumented immigrant children is being met with over heated rhetoric and paranoid ranting from politicians who only stoke the anger when they should be finding answers to a very real crisis. instead, this is what they are encouraging, this is arizona where protesters came to block
5:01 pm
the arrival of a bus carrying a few dozen kids to a ranch for troubled youth to be held until court hearings whether they can stay in the country. >> the reason why lady justice holds a blindfold over her face -- >> in the crowd making a speech, this guy republican state legislator and congressional candidate adam saw a buzz and got very excited. he tweeted bus coming in, this is not compassion but aber gages of the rule of law and sure enough it was a bus. he tweeted ran to confront the bus later telling a local reporter about the encounter. >> i was able to actually see some of the children in the buses and the fear on their faces, this is not compassion. >> it's unclear whose compassion he's talking about there and what that has to do with the fear on the face of children as their bus encounters an angry mob of screaming grown ups. the kids may have been puzzled, not scared, because watch. >> which children on the buses
5:02 pm
were those? >> i saw a school bus with plenty of children on it, i'm assuming that was the bus that was moving through. >> he assumed it was the bus, but it wasn't the bus. >> do you know that was a bus with ymca kids. >> they were sad, too. okay. i apologize. i was leaving when i saw them, so if that was a school bus, people are not happy down the line. that was an error by me. >> should you be making those kinds of assumptions on such a charged issue to talk about seeing the kids when those weren't the kids? >> i saw children. i saw children. >> those weren't migrant children. >> it was a mistake. that was a mistake. if that was not correct, then that's a mistake. >> kids from the ymca. certainly was but he is right, people are upset. you hear people talking about trojan horses and invasions, condco
5:03 pm
condayous diseases. plenty of the hyped up language is coming from the mouths not of everyday people but elected representatives. >> world english dictionary defines invasion among the dictionary is invading with armed forces but it's any encroachment or intrusion, the onset or advent of something harmful like a disease. >> there is the d word, disease. let's take a second to insert facts here because that disease word is getting tossed around all the time. keeping them honest. the vaccinate for kids in honduras is 88 to 94% for common childhood illnesses and according to the cdc the rate for american kids is worse. when it's not disease they are accusing the kids of, it's crime. here is richard nugent. >> you know, where do they get
5:04 pm
the jobs? a lot of these children, quote unquote, you know, the caller, the first caller mentioned it is, you know, they are gang members. they are gang affiliated. these kids are brought up in a culture of thievery, a culture of murder, of rape. >> yeah. >> all those things and we're going to infuse them into the american culture. it's just ludicrous. >> so, again, keeping them honest, while gang violence is a real problem in central america and no doubt gang members cross illegally into the united states, there is evidence the kids we are talking about here are kidding fleeing violence. there is no evidence they came to spread violence. there are theories from m politicians. steve king and stockman say this is ade deliberate move by straty of wrath radical social ol'
5:05 pm
gist. telling world net, i feel this is an attempt to flood the boarder of illegals is plague out of the clowahd-p many i -- piven theory. an open secret obama is flying to flood texas with illegals to make it into a blue state. to address this problem is ticking away. they are just 11 days until congress breaks for the summer. dana bash is there and 2012 hispanic chair and dan rastrappo. dana, you're on capitol hill. do you think this rhetoric is increasing? >> with the members you put up there, which is unfortunately not that unusual, but i actually
5:06 pm
had a chance to talk to one of the members, republican richard nugent and you know this, anderson, sometimes when we try to chase -- try to talk to members and clarify comments, i have to chase them down the hallways. that wasn't the case with congressman nugent. they invited us in. he said yes and explained why. >> i believe that some members of ms-13 have come across the boarder. i know that only because of the reports from fox news from phoenix that reported in an interview with the president of the boarder patrol union that was talking about just that particular issue and there was about 16 that were identified because of the tattoos they had. doesn't mean they are all identified. >> but as a sitting member of congress, you also have access to try to get information on
5:07 pm
your own, not with news reports. >> right. >> have you tried to figure out if what you saw and what you said is accurate? >> well, i mean, i can only go by what the boarder patrol, the president of the union said. i would suspect that he is being accurate. i have no way of double checking that. it's not within my district. you know, you do take that for face value because as a fellow law enforcement officer, i don't think he's going to lie to us. >> now, he mentioned that he is a fellow law enforcement officer. congressman nugent was actually a sheriff for ye38 years beforee came here in 2010 and he said that's why he heard the comments and believes it but he said he understands that it is likely a very small number. customs union had said it was just 16 that they had identified, that really pails in comparison to the 50,000 coming across. he's eager to say he's a parent,
5:08 pm
grandparent and feels for these kids, the majority of whom are probably fleeing from terrible conditions at home. >> it's interesting. because in the headlines grabbing rhetoric, when people are screaming, that's what they are screaming about, not the factual, 16 members of ms and no doubt there are gang members coming over. we all know this, but to paint everybody with a broad brush seems odd and incorrect. it seems like every time immigration is a serious issue, we get this inflamed talk, particularly from those against a reform effort and want to focus on boarder security and many are republicans. does your party risk being damaged and what do you make of the rhetoric? >> the majority of the congress people who you highlighted in this story, frankly, are the ones whose only reason to live is to be anti immigration. it's why they get on tv. they don't get on tv because they are relevant when it comes
5:09 pm
to other passing of legislation. the ironic part that hasn't been talked about much is the united states when we deported criminal aliens back to the countries, which i think we have every right to do and anybody who comes here and becomes a criminal should be deported but we deported a lot of these gang members who had taught themselves and become gang members here in the united states, exported all those bad things they knew into countries that have broken down justice systems that they just don't have the ability, that they are corrupt, they are inapt, they are incapable of dealing with a flow of gang members going back into these countries and it turned into a very big problem in central america, which is now biting us back in this current situation. >> and anna, you're exactly right. back when i was with abc news in '95, '96, i was in el salvador
5:10 pm
doing stories on gang members from 18th street and ms were deported and started up la street gangs in el salvador that gravitated south. if you look at recent polling, certainly democrats aren't fairing that well, either, in this debate which is surprising to democrats. why do you think that is? >> two things there is crisis fatigue and hard to look at what is going on at the boarder and put anybody in the right. people see a crisis and have a basic sense that nobody is doing a perfect job here. then among democrats who also have -- you got to remember the president is under pressure from advocates and democrats and remains under pressure from democrats to do more for the undocumented population already in the united states administratively because republicans in congress decided they can't or won't do comprehensive immigration reform, he's under pressure to ratchet back deportations and
5:11 pm
enforcement that he's been engaged in over the course of the last five or six years. so the politics on this on the democratic side of the house is quite different than what we've seen from republicans in that rhetoric that you had at the top of the segment. >> it is interesting, dan. we had on sheriff from arizona and i was stunned, maybe i'm naive on this but for a law enforcement guy, he put out a press release saying no federal immigration laws are being enforced, which is just fa factually ridiculous. whether you think they are factual or ridiculous, the way the kids rebeing treated is based on a federal immigration law from 2008. there is so much rhetoric that is not correct which is just inappropriate at a time like this for a sheriff to put forward. >> absolutely. this is in the context of a president being assailed by immigration, proimmigration advocates as the deporter in chief, a guy who deported 400,000 undocumented immigrants
5:12 pm
per year throughout his presidency in accordance with mandates of federal immigration law passed by congress and moneys appropriated by congress. so the notion that immigration law isn't being enforced is ludicrous but it's also showing how detached from reality the voices, anti immigrant voices are in this debate and sadly, they tend to concentrate on one political party and tend to concentrate on the republican party and held it hostage in the house in a way that doesn't allow a comprehensive solution or part of a comprehensive solution, comprehensive immigration reform to move forward supported by a majority of the country. >> forgetting about comprehensive immigration reform, just in the time before congress goes away on break, do you see some sort of change or you know, whether it's a repeal of the 2008 law, started all this, do you see some actual change or something that will actually take place that can
5:13 pm
affect the kids coming over? >> well, we do think that at least next week the house of representatives is going to pass something, likely going to be a change to that 2008 law and probably some form of the money that the president very unlikely, it's not going to happen that he'll get the $3.7 billion he wants but the issue is then going to be what about the democrats? dan is exactly right, just in the last hour, the homeland security secretary, jay johnson was here trying to convince not just republicans, his fellow democrats that they have to change that 2008 law to try to make all of these countries central american and the contiguous countries to allow the government, administration to send people back without the hearings and that's a controversial thing within the democratic caucus. >> it is a strange there is a different law for kitd kds from
5:14 pm
central america and mexico. >> it was an amendment sponsored by the senator back in 2008 and it was meant to protect victims of human trafficking, so that they wouldn't be immediately y fall back into the hands of human traffickers immediately after being repatuated never having the intent and foreseeing this issue would pop up but again, look, anderson, we're talking about our neighbors in the region. people that can actually walk over here, ride a train over here, ride a bus over here, so it's very different than if we're doing something with nigeria or some other country where these things are not possible. i think we have to stop the finger wagging. we have to stop the partisan blaming. we have to look at this problem comprehensively, look at all the factors and be able to address it and do so quickly and also with a degree of compassion. >> appreciate it. dana bash, thank you. you can see the entire interview with congressman nugent on

>> tonight one of the best known faces and host honored names in the debate, jose antonio vargas is known as the guy in video getting busted by federal authorities at the airport in mcallen, texas. it happened yesterday, he was defined briefly and released. he joins us tonight. thanks, jose, for being with us. did you have any idea that you would likely be detain snd i read some tweets you had sent out when you were down there saying you're in the country illegally and traveling without a visa and said you weren't sure how you would leave. did you really have no idea this would happen? >> so, i think it's really important i clear up the timeline. so i flue doew down there becau was invited from undocumented
5:20 pm
youth leaders to come down to show solidarity with what is happening with the child migrant crisis. i went to a shelter and we filmed with the refugees, which is heart breaking. so i flew down thursday morning. the moment i got there, one of the young women, people who live there, tonya chavez said to me, oh my god, i'm really happy you're here but how are you going to get out? and i looked at her like what are you talking about? i've been flying around the country with this fillipino passport as id and there has never been a problem. she says but you're in the texas boarder, you know, this is basically a trap, you know, like you're trapped. when you live in that 45-mile radius, you can't go anywhere without there being a check point or without boarder patrol being at the tsa line at the airport. in all of my travels across the country in the past three years, there has never been a boarder patrol agent next to the tsa
5:21 pm
person. so this started sinking in by thursday night, and i talked to my friends, i talked to the people at define american and trying to figure out how will i get out of here? they were trying to figure out how to like sneak me out, and then i'm thinking wait a second, like i have to, you know, i have the agency to tell people when you're undocumented in this country and don't have a single piece of government issued id this is the situation you find yourself in -- >> was this, in fact, a stunt. there was someone with a video camera when you were detained and i talked to supporters of the kids crossing over that say you're taking intention away from the very real issue of the kids and that, you know, the story has become you as opposed to these kids. >> well, all of these stories, by the way, are enter seinter s. i came there to video, what is
5:22 pm
happening down there with the child migrant case. i didn't know the 45-mile radius is a military zone. that i didn't know. here is what i find really interesting. what is the stunt? i had to get out of south texas. i have to either get out by car or by plane. if i got out by car, anderson, if you had driven me by car you would get apprehended for smuggling me out. so either i get out by car or plane. that's not a stunt. that's the reality of what it is like to be undocumented in this country. >> do you worry this overshadows the real issue of the kids. i know you went down there to focus on that but the story is you getting detained. >> well, i mean, i think this is how these issues get conflicted, right? for example, let me give you an example. people are saying the boarder is not secure. i can tell you right now as somebody who spent five days in that area, that it's definitely secure. i mean, i ended up spending
5:23 pm
actually, you know, seven to eight hours at a boarder patrol station exactly with some of these kids that are just crossed. some of these refugee children. i don't think it's taking attention away. what it does, it tells you what it is like to be undocumented in this country and what happens when you're in that area and trapped. i got out. can you imagine living in an area? i mean, i've talked to people that lived in that area for 17 years, anderson, and never left. can you imagine that? i talked to a woman who is an american citizen, right, a 21-year-old woman roxy who has not left that area -- >> for fear -- >> or a guy that couldn't. >> i know you have to appear before an immigration judge. we'll obviously continue to follow that. appreciate you being on tonight, thank you. you heard a u.s. congressman warning about gang members coming into the country. again, there is no evidence that in large numbers this is happening in a substantial way. that congressman said he had
5:24 pm
been told there were 16 members of ms coming out of tens of thousands of these kids. there is plenty of evidence, though, of what these kids are returning from. you can find it in honduras at the local morgue, take a look. >> reporter: in this building in the coroner's office is where the most painful exchange happens. families come here to claim bodies, so they find out if their loved one is alive or dead. look at this wall. this entire wall is filled with men and women missing. overnight there were four bodies that came in to the coroner's office and that's a decrease. [speaking foreign language]. >> reporter: it didn't take long for us to find a grieving family. these two women are looking for a man. they had a family pact to go to disney, the entire family, the family went first, the wife and kids and he was supposed to leave later, had his visa and
5:25 pm
tickets but stayed only to die. he was killed. [speaking foreign language]. >> reporter: she's saying they couldn't find her son. they found him dead. she said they were raided, that they couldn't recognize his face. his facial features were destroyed somehow. she says that people here live in fear. that's how they live. they don't have another option. her nephew, the people they are trying to identify today, actually, she says actually helped her when they were trying to kidnap her, extort her for money. she says that she just doesn't know what the future holds at this point. some people don't want to come here to claim bodies because they don't want to be associated with their family member who ends up dead because hear this, gang members come here to the medical examiner's office and case out families to figure out who is next in that family unit
5:26 pm
that they would be attacking. this is the medical forensics truck that brings the bodies here. the medical examiner tells us that 48 unclaimed bodies are here at this time. here is the sad thing, a lot of the families in honduras think their family member is on their way to the united states, only to find out that they are here dead. >> rosa flores reporting from honduras. we have new details tunnel in the military's investigation of bowe bergdahl in his disappearance five years ago. i'll talk to his brand-new attorney ahead.
5:27 pm

5:30 pm
5:31 pm
so far. the wolf, the killing of these four boys, what has israel said about it? >> they are disturbed and launched a full scale investigation to determine what happened. the prime minister spokesman told me in his really general knowledge has been asked to lead this investigation. they think it was probably some sort of major mistake they want to review it to make sure it doesn't happen again. the same time, they also point out they say these four litt palestinian boys our alive if they accepted the seize fire, the egyptian sponsored seize fire. they acre knowledge they may have blundered somehow in that operation and they say they feel horrible about that. >> the pause in the air strikes tomorrow, israel is very clear it's not going to hesitate to resume them if that window is
5:32 pm
exploit the by hamas, right? >> right, they say they will intensify their activities, military action, a lot of people are bracing for at least a limited israeli ground incursion if these seize fires don't hold. the israelis say they will accept the six-hour pause that the united nations put forward. as we speak now, anderson, we're waiting for an official response from hamas, one of their spokesmen told me earlier they have questions that need to be answered and they will get back to us, whether they will respect that un proposal. >> any kind of ground incursion into gaza is incredibly difficult thing that will result in a lot more fatalities. does israel think it can achieve the objectives without invading gaza? does it seem inevitable they will do some sort of ground operation? >> i've spoken with a lot of israeli analysts and people in the military and they say there is certainly a lot they can do with continued air strikes but there are certain things they can't do because a lot of the
5:33 pm
hamas infrastructure, if you will, of rockets is deep under ground and have a network of tunnels and you can't just simply do that in these heavily populated areas of gaza. that would require boo on the ground, as they say. it's a tough decision the israeli haves to make because there will no doubt be a lot more casualties and there will be israeli casualties, as well. troops who will go in there, some of them will be killed, as well. this is a very, very difficult decision for prime minister netanya netanyahu. appreciate it. thanks. i want to turn to bowe bergda bergdahl. he's back on the job for three days in san antonio. he was released by the taliban six weeks ago in a prisoner swap. now he could be facing a court marshall. his lawyer joins us shortly. >> release me, please. >> reporter: the army has
5:34 pm
already conducted much of the investigation into bowe bergdahl's disappearance and capture but those investigators have never heard directly from the 28-year-old army sergeant, that's about to change. now that sergeant bergdahl is back to regular army duty, his lawyer says in the next two weeks, he'll meet with major general kenneth doll, the man apo appoi apainted to lead the investigation. the general has about a month left to make recommendations whether bergdahl should face criminal charges. >> the army will look at this to make sure they didn't get embarrassed. do you see a way that bowe bergdahl is in the army a year from now? >> i don't. i don't think anybody is going to want to work for him or under him and he's probably ready to get out, as well. >> reporter: army officials say he completed the program and been assigned administrative duties for a unit at fort sam
5:35 pm
houston at san antonio texas, this while he waits to hear what army investigator wills do next. in the meantime, army officials insist he's being treated like any other soldier working as a sergeant. >> they assign him to a special project, that's code for not really doing anything. so he is probably doing some sort of administrative work, maybe at a desk job. >> reporter: in the days after bergdahl was turned over to u.s. forces, the friends and hometown of idaho idaho anxiously awaite. army officials said a reunion would be arrange the any time bowe bergdahl asks for it but that reunion hasn't happened and there is no sign it will happen any time soon. army officials and bergdahl's lawyer say it's a private family matter. in recent weeks, army officials say bergdahl ventured into public. he's gone to grocery stores and
5:36 pm
restaurant and been recognized by civilians on the streets. his future, though, is very much in limbo. eugene is sergeant bergdahl's attorney. i understand you met with him for the first time in san antonio last week. what can you tell us about the visit? i know because of attorney client privilege there is a lot you can't say. what can you say about him? >> well, i can tell you, anderson, that i liked him immediately, and part of the without going into any confidential conversations, part of the thing that a lawyer hopes for an initial meeting with a client is that there would be, you know, one gets along with the client and vice versa and i certainly had that feeling. i consider this an important case. it's one that i was very happy
5:37 pm
to be asked to participate in. >> did he express gratitude? >> to me? >> no, to the united states, to the administration for being rescued? >> oh, that's what he told me was, and i'm saying -- i'm disclosing this with his consent, that he is deeply grateful to president obama for having saved his life. >> i know you said you have spoke ton general dahl leading this investigation. he's high level. do you have a sense of the timetable and has the military spoken to your client yet about the details of him leaving or is that something that general dahl will do directly with sergeant bergdahl and obviously, that would be something either you or the military attorney would be present for. >> right, i'll be present for those interviews. >> as far as you know, know conversations have taken place up to this point between the
5:38 pm
military and sergeant bergdahl? >> that's correct, aside from the debriefings that have occurred before the reintegration process ran its course. there are a number of government agencies that are interested in talking to him and my understanding is he's cooperated, start to finish with the authorities. >> and finally, i'm obviously not asking about, you know, the circumstances of him leaving or whether or not he's talked to his parents because i know you won't answer those questions for your own attorney client privilege, do you have the answers, though, in terms of has your client -- have you talked to your client about the circumstances of his leaving or this part of representation you haven't gone that far? can you say? >> i've had substantial conversations with my client about the -- there was a judge who used to say, the meat of the coconut. >> okay. >> charles richy in washington
5:39 pm
dc. we have a very good sense of the core facts. we'll learn more. i still haven't seen the original report that was done several years ago, which is classified. i'm going to see that in due course and obviously, we'll get a chance to see general dahl's report, but i have a pretty good sense, i believe, of how events actually unfolded on the ground. >> i look forward to learning more. appreciate you being on. thank you. >> thanks for the opportunity. coming up tonight, accidental overdose or murder by heroin. that's the question for an alleged high price call girl charged in the death of a google executive.
