this saturday. i'm arthel neville. >> i'm gregg jarrett. glad you're with us. it's another wintry weekend for millions of americans. meteorologist janice dean live in the fox extreme weather center with the latest details. >> hi. yes. we have another winter storm. we are dealing with some wet weather and snowy weather for the northwest. another clipper system for the midwest. don't want to ignore you guys. across the northeast again, another winter storm that is going to bring blizzard conditions for new england. you can see the snow where the snow is flying. we have some significant airport delays. newark, close to four hours of delays for you. even in philadelphia where it's just lightly snowing, you've got over an hour delay there. all around the new york airports we are going to see delays, unfortunately, as this system continues. to bring light snow to new york city, providence, as well. freezing rain reported in philadelphia right now. that could add to the problems

at the airports. then we'll see this storm bomb out is what we call it in meteorology. strengthen very rapidly in a short period of time. here we are saturday 3:00 p.m. going through 6:00 p.m., 7:00 p.m., still new york, jersey, long island, up towards new england. new england, you are going to get the brunt of this storm. coastal areas of massachusetts towards maine, this is an incredibly strong storm. for northern new england and our friends in eastern canada, we are going to see an incredible storm. if i have good news on the horizon, we are going to warm up a little bit this week heading into tuesday. we are going to deal with another quick-moving storm. it might be too warm for snow. we'll keep our fingers crossed and keep you posted. want to update you on the northwest. we have a parade of storms moving out here. a lot of people are what about me, j.d., the northwest? we'll see more rain and expect delays across the west. we'll keep you up-to-date coast

carolina and georgia just last night. its epicenter was seven miles west of the town of edgefield, south carolina. with a preliminary magnitude of 4.1. no damage or injuries from this quake have been reported so far. officials are investigating further today. other news right now. we are awaiting a florida jury's verdict which could come any time now in the murder trial of michael dunn who is accused of fatally shooting a 17-year-old after a dispute over loud music. the jury has been deadlocked on some of the charges. let's bring in steve harrigan now in miami live with the latest. tell us what is the latest today? >> after four days of deliberation, the 12 person jury has come back to the judge again this morning for more questions. asking if the charges should be considered separately. dunn is facing five separate charges in addition to murder.

three counts of attempted murder. the judge instructed the jury they should consider them all separately. those attempted murder charges carry penalties up to 20 years. four days in, the courtroom is clear and that jury could come back with a verdict any minute. >> sometimes in cases like this, there is now concern that prosecution might have overreached. >> the jury is certainly deadlocked on something, at least one charge. much the speculation is over that first degree murder charge that. would carry life in prison. also means they believe that dunn was premeditated in his attack on 17-year-old, a deliberate attempt to murder. that's been the hang up so far. that would require life in pris prison. dunn claims he simply acted in self-defense. he claims a shotgun was pointed at him, but police never found any such weapon at the scene.

>> as we said a verdict could come in any minute. we'll get back to you. thank you very much. >> indianapolis police arresting a daycare owner suspected of drugging young children. 37-year-old stephanie gribble arrested on charges of neglecting a department. detectives believe she may be responsible for four children overdosing while under her care operated out detectives say the kids were given a combination of over-the-counter and prescription meds. overseas now. new bloodshed in war-torn syria. government troops heavily bombing a rebel held town near lebanon. the syrian peace talks are in jeopardy after six days at the bargaining table in geneva. the u.n. mediator ending direct talks between the syrian government and opposition forces without reaching a deal. both sides now blaming each

other. listen to syria's mediator lash out. >> whatever you hear from these amateurs when they come here and stand on the podium and they address the media, international media, this is not accurate. this is not true. they are just misleading the public opinion by circulating wrong rumors. >> he later apologized to the syrian people for facing to reach agreements. syria is dominating talks between president obama and king abdullah in a meeting in california friday. they will help jordan with the humanitarian crisis created by hundreds of thousands of refugees from syria's civil war flooding across the border. president obama also pledged continuing economic aid for the ally jordan, including $1 billion in loan guarantees.

organized labor taking a major blow in the south as employees at the volkswagen plant in chattanooga, tennessee, voted against joining the united auto workers union. the decision expecting to obstruct the long-term plans to organize other auto plants down south. brian llenas live with more. >> united auto workers membership and influence has been declining for decades. uaw publically admitted that the union has no long-term future if they cannot begin to organize outside of detroit's three major auto companies and expand to the at least 14 foreign auto assembly plants in the southern united states. which is why yesterday's vote was such a big deal. chattanooga volkswagen plant was seen by supporters as the uaw's best chance to begin expanding into the south. after three days of secret balloting, workers at the plant voted friday night 712-626 against joining the uaw.

it's a stunning vote, particularly because vw was seen as friendly to the union. they maintained they were neutral throughout the vote. friday night's vote is a major win for republicans like senator bob corker of tennessee, who blames the uaw bankrupting u.s. automakers this detroit. corker has been the most vocal opponent and was crucial to bringing volkswagen to chattanooga. >> how many companies from south korea or japan or germany, how many of them do you think make a stop in detroit to look at locating there? none. not a one. it's because of the culture that the uaw's largely contributed to. >> "needless to say, i am thrilled for the employees at volkswagen and for our community and its future." politicians threatened to cut

off aid if it was approved. volkswagen saying this he would possibly choose a mexico plant for an suv it is developing for the u.s. the uaw statement read in part, "while we are outraged by politicians and outside special interest groups interfering with the basic legal right of workers to form a union, we are proud these workers were brave and stood up to the tremendous pressure from outside." we can expect the uaw to continue to target other factories and plants like those from mercedes, hyundai and others. we have an expert coming up next hour to provide more insight on this very dramatic vote into the decision and what it really means for employees, employers and our overall economy. >> could have a huge impact for other car and other businesses beyond the car industry. >> definitely. >> if you think the weather is bad here on the east coast, take a look at great britain. that country is seeing some of

its worst flooding in centuries. forecasters are saying the devastation is far from over. a little girl fighting a big battle. now being honored. her story after the break. >> the bravery i didn't know was there. like it's exploding inside my body. it totally changed me.

employees a fair wage of at least $10.10 an hour. >> the president's use of executive authority is directly contradicting his stand back in 2008 when he was in the senate and a run was in the white house. take a listen. >> the biggest problems that we are facing right now have to do with george bush trying to bring more and more power into the executive branch and not go through congress at all. that's what i intend to reverse when i'm president of the united states. >> joining us for a fair and balanced debate, richard goodstein, democratic consultant and former advisor for hillary clinton in her campaign in 2008. and martha zoler is here and former congressional candidate for georgia's ninth district. welcome to you both. >> good to see you. >> we are going to start with this. martha, you're up first. i want to get your opinion of the president's strategy. is it a case of flip-flopping or

a cold dose of reality once he took over, he was the one to take over the throne? keeping in mind what press secretary jay carney said yesterday, that it was the quality and type of executive actions that then senator obama believed were not appropriate on the part of president george w. bush. >> i don't begrudge him having a different point of view once he is president. he didn't take the throne, but he's acting like he's taken the throne. we are talking about a small group of federal workers in the future. it's so he can say he did something like he could say he did something regarding guns after newtown. most those executive orders had no teeth to them. i think this is a paper tiger for his base. he is worried about 2014 and not about whether workers get minimum wage. >> richard, how do you see it? >> there are two questions. one is what he doing lawful and the other is correct. the record is clear he has the

lowest rate of issuing executive orders of any president since grover cleveland who left office in 1889. that is indisputable. fewer than gerald ford and others in for very short period of time. the emancipation proclamation, did anybody think that was lawless? he got more votes. democrats in the senate and house got more votes. he is trying to move on something he ran on, minimum wage, giving a chance to dreamers, kids of these undocumented immigrants. i really think across the board it's not political. he is trying to do what he ran on. judge, martha, let me get you back in here. how do you think republicans should push back on those dems who might say this was precipitated by the republican

party putting up political barricades before the president at every turn? >> i don't see, the republicans control 1/2 of the congress. they don't control the senate. the president has as much problem getting his agenda through in the senate that is controlled by democrats as he does on the other side. his problem is that he really doesn't want to work with congress. he likes photo opes. he likes to have meetings where he tells people how it's going to be. he doesn't want to negotiate. if i were president obama, i would be looking at the senate who he had control of his entire time and he still can't get his agenda through on the senate side. if we were working the way we should work, the house would pass their agenda, the senate would pass theirs and then you go to conference committee. it's not happening that way. the president is not leading. >> richard, let me say that, if we take martha's lead and stick with the democrats here, how does this bode for the president and his party? you're talking about fellow dems up for re-election in november.

then you have those who want to support the president. he's the ultimate party leader, but who might think executive orders amount to a political bully move. >> well, most part democrats are eager to see the president accomplish the things he ran op. if you're mary in louisiana, do we think it's better or worse to have the administration support increasing the minimum wage or do you think it's better to give an opportunity to the dreamer kids or what not? i think the fact of the matter is if the president can accomplish his agenda, that's a positive. look, yes, of course the house and if senate are not agreeing on much of anything these days. but you can hardly attribute the fact that there's no conference committees to president obama. that's not his job. he's not a members of congress. when he choose to go to congress and not by pass, he gets attacked for that. i think it's kind of a question where you stand is maybe a

question of where you sit politically. >> you know what? i started with you martha, so i leave with you richard. and i'm out of town. good to see both of you. we have more when our show returns. stick around. when jake and i first set out on our own, we ate anything. but in time you realize the bett you eat, the better you feel. these days we both eat smarter. and i give jake purina cat chow naturals. made with real chicken and salmon, anit's high in protein like aow cat's natural diet. and no added artificial flavors. we've come a long way. and whatever's ahead, we'll be there for each other. naturally. purina cat chow naturals.

friday said that the banks can take cash from marijuana related businesses but they've put up some red flags. they can only accept the cash as long as there's no evidence that the customer is using a pot business to launder money. also, businesses unrelated to pot depositing cash that smells like marijuana. so basically if the cash is whiffy, don't take it because that could get you into trouble. but the banks have no belief whatsoever this isn't going to prevent them from prosecution. and they say frankly these guidelines particularly when it comes to the handling of cash aren't heal. ful at all. take a listen. >> we've heard that before that third entities would not prosecute banks for a certain practice and then they turn an and do prosecute. so until we have clear guidance from other regulators it would

be highly reluck fant for the banks to participate in this new commerce. >> we had one official say, look, these guidelines don't protect or provide a safe harbor to banks that do take the cash. but on the other hand, that if they follow the guidelines that have been issued on friday, they possibly won't face prosecution should there be any problems down the line. bewildering for the banking industry. however some people are happy about that, that is the pot growers and lobbyists. they're saying we're a cash based business. this is dangerous. thank goodness the banks can take it. you know what? still no indication of whether the banks actually will a and now the banking industry is lobbying congress saying, come up with hard legislation to keep us safe. >> i'm sure you'll be on top of

according to the insurance industry, a quarter who signed up for it never paid for it so they're not enrolled? >> that's a real problem. i think the bigger issue is how many of these people that are signing up actually lacked health insurance. the purpose was to insured the uninsured. only 11% of people who signed up on the exchanges actually lacked insurance. that's 330,000, that's 0 . % of the american population. you've got people asking do we spend $2 trillion in order to insure 0 .1%? shouldn't we be able to do better than that. >> the administration nevertheless is saying 3.3 million have signed up but, you know, john, 6.2 million actually lost their insurance coverage because of obama care. what does that huge negative say

about obamacare. . >> the people don't like what they see. they're doing so only if they get subsidies. it's extremely expensive for people who don't qualify for the subsidies. there is's a report out that says there will be 2.5 million fewer workers because of balm care. the law punishes people for working more. so no one in their mind is going to work more to have less coming in. >> people are asking and we see this all the time in social networking sites, in obamacare is so good as the president insists, why has he made 29 unilateral changes to it, granted delays, waivers, exemptions. i suppose it's es a good question. >> the law is unstable. it seems they don't know of a way to work that without many people losing their jobs with

employers who are going to try to fire people, cut their hours under 30 hours so they can employ the mandate's roll to have people that work more than 30 hours a week. the problem for republicans is they don't have a lot of legal recourse right now to sue the president. to do that you need standing and to establish standing you have to show that you've been harmed. when the president relieves this burden in employees, he's actually relieving harm than imposing another one. >> you know, the president now grudgingly admits that his big promise, you get to keep your health care plan was untrue. it was the lie of the year last year. isn't it more than that now? people are losing their doctors, their hospitals and importantly they're losing their vital medications, for example, people with ms, lupus and other chronic illnesses. their prescriptions are not covered by obamacare. and some people are having to take second jobs to pay for the

meds. >> all of the issues you just mentioned are the,s that the poll numbers are so bad. you know, if you look back at the polling, majority of americans by double digits opposed this law since its inception with the exception of right before the presidential election of 2012. they narrowed the gap to 5 percentage points. the question going guard is whether they can do that again. they're going to have a difficult time doing that. >> a new fox news poll finds that only 9% say their family is better off under obamacare. think about that. that's a quarter of the population. and charles was pointing out that health care is not some sort of abstract policy. sit very personal and it affects

everybody. is that why the democrats appear to be so worried and many are coming out actively against obamacare? >> certainly. balm care is bad enough in that it picks your pocket for many people. but in terms of getting in the way of you and your doctor, determining whether you can go to your doctor, whether or not you're going to have to wait in line for a certain procedure, for a lot of people, people are going to ask, couldn't there be a better way to do it without having to reorganize a system for everybody already in there. this is going to be a big problem. >> john, thanks very much for being with us. >> thank you. well, coming up, a major new blow for organized labor in america. we're going to tell you where workers rejected a plan to unionize and what that means for the future.

kerry arriving in indonesia. putting the brakes on big labor unions in the south as employees at the volkswagen plant in chattanooga, tennessee just voted against joining the united auto workers. now that decision possibly dismantling the union's plan to organize in other countries across the company. mickey carlisle is with us. did they play their cards right and what does it mean for the future of uaw, especially at the other car plants in the south or for organized labor in general? >> it's a shot to the ego of some of the organizers. i don't believe this changes anything. there are 333,000 members of the uaw. this was only a plant with 1500

workers. this isn't critical to the existence of the uaw. ever since i've been around the unions have been trying to get a toe hold in the south and this is just one more time that the workers have rejected the unions. >> is that sort of a foreshadowing of what's to come down south regarding the auto plants? >> you look at tennessee tp and only 6% of the workers in tennessee are yuan niezed. i don't know why they choose that to be their battleground. i think there was a low probability of any success in getting that particular plant to convert to being a union plant. work councils are standard in germany. the chief executive of the plant there says volkswagen will continue to search for a method of establishing a works council. if the company was in favor of a union, uaw definitely in favor, why ultimately wit was rejected?

>> it's a vote of members. it's not the politicians, the owners of the auto plant or the uaw. it's was the workers. they decided that they're making sufficient wages and they have a voice with management, they like their jobs and didn't feel like they needed a union representation. the purpose of union is to give workers a voice. and these workers exercise their voice and they we don't need to union here. >> so then let's go here, then. do you foresee any way down the road that this would props be problematic for workers? because, as you said, these unions are established initially to protect the works' rights. >> i think especially in the right to work states in the south, that there's a general mistrust of unions. and you know, a lot of workers blame the unions for some of the things that have happened in detroit. and especially when the auto makers had all of their financial troubles. so this is just -- you know, these plants are moved to tennessee to get away from the

unions and i don't think that they're going to be able to yuan ni unionize them. >> we want to break it down into two sub categories. you touch on one which is politics. so how does this move reflect the power of politics and what does it say about the power of the people, you know the actual workers, mickey? >> i think it's just the voice of the workers. you know, the person who attaches the hood to a new car isn't really interested in what the senator has to say or the threats they make or that union has the objective of trying to unionize more plants. they care about their families and how their job is and these workers said we're comfortable in our jobs and we don't really need the unions here so we don't see any reason to pay union dues. i think -- >> go ahead. >> i'm sorry? >> pardon me. continue. >> and i think it's a little bit of grand standing not only with

the politicians but also with the union organizers that they wanted this to happen or didn't want it to happen. so they're taking credit. but actually it's just the voice of the workers say we don't need this union in this particular plant. >> they have spoken and it is resounding loud and clear. thank you so much. good to see you, sir. well our legal panel is here with insights into the murder trial of amanda hayes. we've got the latest sound from that dramatic trial. we're going to tell you about the new evidence that prosecutors brought into the case. >> and another time whenever we were driving, lily was crying and he told me if i didn't shutter up he was going to throw her out of the car.

visit truecar.comoney,com,tve and never overpay.yer's remorse. a good deal or not. "okay, this is the price,"sman comes and you're like.ells you, closings arguments set to begin monday in the amanda hayes murder trial. he's accused of murdering laura ackerson the mother of her husband's two children. hayes took the stand earlier this week saying that she didn't have anything to do with it, that her husband who was convicted was the only one behind it >> would you state your name, please. >> my name is amanda smith hayes. >> did you kill laura ackerson?

>> no, sir i did not. >> did you help grant kill laura ackerson? >> i absolutely did not. >> did you know that laura had died before you got to texas? >> no, sir. >> on friday prosecutors brought in brand new evidence against, letter given to her by grant's father allegedly from amanda hayes with a message to her husband. >> he says i have these letters that i've just faxed to your office that show that after the arrest, after they're both in custody that she is sending these letters to, you know, to our home asking us to tell grant hayes that she loves him, thinks about him every day. >> to talk about the case, trial attorney and fox news legal analyst bob massey. those letters are all lov

lovey-dov lovey-dovey. well that undermines her principle defense that she only went along with disposing of the body because he was afraid of her husband, right? >> she stated he was manipulative. she feared for her life. she said at one time he said he was going to throw their child out the window. now you have something self authored by herself sending it to, you know, the family saying i love him, i miss him. and in addition to that, we have the inmate, necessarily credibility question, that says that she said the same thing to her. >> you know, rachel, we saw a moment ago right before the commercial break we played amanda hayes, the defendant on the witness stand crying, crying and crying. well, the prosecutor said during opening statement bs, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, remember, she's an actress. here it is. take a listen. >> you're going to learn that

amanda hayes is an actress. that she trained as an actress, she performed as an actress and that she attempted to make a living as abactress. ladies and gentlemen, this isn't a case about movie and this isn't a movie. this isn't a stage. this is a case about a murdered young mother. >> rachel, what do you think of that? >> i think it is very effective thing for the prosecution to say. because this entire case is going to hinge on who the jury believes. and on the one hand you have amanda up on the stand crying and boo hooing and then they bring out these letters that said my dear baby, i miss everything about you, i can't wait to give you hugs and kisses. and the jury is not dumb. they're going to look at this and think about the tears and think about the fact that she's an actress and then they're going to look at these letters. that's the thing. it didn't add up.

so she's got some major issues with regard to credibility. then you have the inmate who also testified and said that she's not getting anything in return for testifying. so you have an independent third party witness providing information that's a different story. >> you've got the defendant's own sister who testifies against her with incriminating evidence. >> yes. >> but, bob, take a listen to this audio interview of amanda hayes' husband who was convicted of murder before her and he's now doing time behind bars. take a listen to this. >> if you look at the facts of this case, her body being found where it was found, her involving her sister, this was amanda's show. i love my wife, i took a vow to protect my wife. >> well, bob, he's got his murder conviction on appeal so naturally he's blaming his wife, right? >> so much for better or worse,

greg, in this situation. look, both of these people are self serving what they're doing. one of the interesting things i found is one of the allegations are that supposedly she fell and tripped on a carpet. nobody ever called 911. nobody said hey, listen, there was an accident here. look, as rachel said, juries aren't stupid. the evidence seems to be so contradictory that the da has their pulse on this. they know exactly what they're going to show. you can already imagine the closing arguments and they're going to take the idea of her testifying all self serving, all stage and as a result, if i remember correct cli, correct me if i'm wrong, wasn't it like only an hour they convicted her husband? >> less than that. it was a nanosecond. they didn't buy any of his claims. >> i think it's going to be the same. >> his claim was, gee, it was an dent. my girlfriend fell, hit her head and died. so you know, we cut up her body and dismembered it and sent it

off to texas. i mean isn't that a problem for amanda hayes? i mean they transport the dismembered body and dispose of it half we across the country. >> she says she's claiming she knowing nothing about that. but then they've got the surveillance video in target, even in best case scenario, believing their tori, they're not going in there for yogurt. he's getting a hacksaw and some other potentially coverup stuff there and she's not going baby, what do you need with a hacksaw? stuff doesn't add up here. she's got some serious issues. >> the only thing she's got going for her is there have been so many stories that have been peddled in the courtroom that it macon fuse the jurors. that sometimes happens. >> well the standard of reasonable doubt is going to be really important in this case i think. >> absolutely. that's a duff burden.

it's a very difficult burden for jurors. bob and rachel, good to see you both. very interesting. well a real life ironman suit may soon be a reyality for u.s. troops. ♪ [ alarm sound for malfunctioning printer ] [ le announcer ] you've reached the age where you've learned a thing or two.

it could be setting the stage to get in a nuclear arms race with others in the region. steven gates is the former deputy assistant to vice president cheney for national security affairs, and a distinguished fellow at the hamilton foundation. steven good to see you. >> good to be with you. >> these dealings, they always come with a double edged sword, a more immediate deal, concerns more immediate concerns like nukes, but couldn't iran be seen in a different light like radicals that could be able to figure out how to work the diplomatic system? >> that's the concern here, they have been actively negotiates about their nuclear programs for the better part of two decades. a similar point in the second term of the clinton administration, where we thought that a reformer had been elected. we entered a negotiating

process, but late in clinton's second term, we backed off when we learned that the ayatollah was in charge, the same ayatollah that's in charge now. our allies in the region, even some of our arab allies, they have seen this before. and they might squeeze in some concessions in to secure a deal and it leaves them vulnerable. >> setting the stage for a nuclear arms race, saudi arabia, for example, they're saying that if iran gets nukes, we might need to get some too? >> when the united states ceases to be a reliable ally to help work together and protect their interests, they really have no choice but to recalibrate their even deterrence.

iran lately has been destabilizing many sunni regimes in iraq. there's the battle in syria, spilling over, but also throughout the arab spring, so they see a broader threat than just the technicalities of a nuclear program. >> some would argue steven, a perceivable bad deal is better than no deal at all. but that one constant that can't be extracted from this equation and that's distrust. can countries like iran or north korea be trusted to followthrough on any deal that might be reached? >> history would suggest that they can't be trusted. but we have had effective negotiations in the past with governments we didn't trust. the highest profile example, this would have been during the reagan administration, at the same time negotiating arms control. there are ways this can be done, but we have to have a serious purpose about deterring in case of failure diplomacy.

we have to have the countenance of our allies if we're going to succeed. >> would you recommend the u.s. shut down talks with iran? >> i'm fine with the united states continuing talks, as long as we don't put all of you are eggs in one basket. if we keep sanctions in place until we have the verification stage moving forward. >> steven yates, you always bring an interesting perspective to the table on these types of subjects and we appreciate your time here today, good to see you, sir. have a good rest of your saturday afternoon. thank you. >> thank you. >> it's very interesting when you look at what the iranians are doing, they are imitating to a t, exactly what the north koreans did. they brokered an agreement, the north koreans and then hid their
