tournament for elite wound warrior golfers and we'll have a chance to talk to him live. you'll hear from him and other vips live on this show tomorrow. >> travel safely. we'll see you live there. we'll talk with danica patrick in the after the show show. see you tomorrow. bill: good morning be everybody, our first case of ebola here in the united states. the first case of the deadly virus being diagnosed at a hospital in dallas. what you need to know. i'm bill hemmer and welcome to america's newsroom. martha: the unidentified patient now in isolation, the situation is said to be contained. he traveled here from liberia. no symptoms showed until nine days after he arrived. he went to the doctor once, went home and came back again.

>> i have no doubt we'll control this importation or this case of ebola so it does not spread widely in this country. it's certainly possible someone who had contact with his individual, a family member or other individual could develop ebola in the coming weeks, but there is no doubt in my mind we'll stop it here. bill: officials remaining cautious trying to figure out who else was in contact with this patient. where does the response go from here? >> sources tell me this patient, this person who came from liberia to the united states on the 20th of september is very, very ill. may have begun to suffer multiple organ failure. it will take some high-end

medical care to bring them back because that's the beginning of the end stage of the disease. what the cdc is going to do is contact tracing. find out who this person was in contact with in the travels over here. ed the cdc believes because he was asymptomatic on the flight the likelihood he passed the virus on to somebody else is fairly minimal. but once he became symptomatic once he landed in the united states anyone who he came in contact with could be exposed to the transmission of the virus. >> we'll be looking at the hospital, any interaction there, any transports to the hospital. we have a 9-person team in dallas helping local and state helicopter departments identify

and monitor. >> you can imagine it's going to be a painstaking process. maybe as many as 18 people including ambulance attendance who drove him to the hospital. he came in on the 26th and was so sick by the 28, the medical worker came in contact with it. there are rumors flying about this. someone tweeted out reports of a second patient in dallas. i checked with the cdc and they say there are no reports of other patients. they would not be surprised if there is another patients. bill: they are trying to go or his steps. how can they be sure no one on the plane was infected? or can they? >> reporter: they are pretty certain nobody else became infected because they say it's

difficult to transmit the disease when you are asymptomatic. dr. rickll of his patients were expwreefned they came to see -- were screened before they came to see him. and he did come down with the disease. he did cesarean sections and a high level of blood. but it can be transmitted even if the person is asymptomatic. martha: what do you need to know about this ebola virus? the virus is spread through direct contact. blood or bloodily fluids. dirty needles can also spread this disease. it's not airborne as far as anyone can ascertain. they say you can't get it from

breathing it in or from the food or water supply. there is no known cure but there are experimental vaccines that have worked in the past. these medical practitioners have recovered from ebola. very serious. bill: the cdc saying america' health system may be unprey paired for a disease outbreak. some countries have done that. martha: more problems for the secret service. we are learning of yet another lapse in security for the administration. an armed man with a criminal record came in direct contact with an elevator with the president of the united states. the head of the secret service got a grilling on capitol hill. >> let me be frank. i believe you have done a disservice to the president of

the united states. why didn't security dogs stop him in his tracks? what about the s.w.a.t. team and assault rifles. why was there no guard stationed the at the front door of the white house. how much would it cost to lock the front door of the white house. >> it's obvious mistake were made. it's self-evident mistakes were made. >> i wish to god you are protecting the white house the way you are protecting your reputation. >> if a window is broken or a window is opened at my house i have an alarm. have you ever head these guys? martha: tell us about the latest lapse in security. >> it was three days before the highly publicized fence-jumping incident when president obama visited the centers for disease control in atlanta. the president was on an elevator with an armed security guard who

has a criminal record. we are told his sketchy background was only discovered because he wouldn't stop taking cell phone video of the president, drawing attention to himself, then he was checked out. julia pierson was asked about this threat and he says he doesn't think she was candid and open and and honest about it. he thinks she should be fired or she should resign. martha: the white house fence jumper who made it all the way into an open door and into the east room. >> reporter: omar gonzalez was indicted on federal and local charges. he's charged with unlawfully entering a restricted building while carrying a deadly weapon, a knife. he was also charged with a

washington, d.c. charge. he jumped the fence, ran across the front lawn, and was obtained by an off-duty member of the counter assault sniper team. the secret service had previous interactions with gonzalez who is suspected of suaving from ptsd before this incident. martha: thank goodness that off-duty officer happened to be wandering in that part of the house and took him down. >> i think it's time that she be fired by the president of the united states or that she resign. she either did not -- she did not tell the president of the united states that a three-time convict with a gun was in an

salivator with the president. was in an elevator with the president. bill: birmingham, alabama. does this show a deep and systemic problem with the secret service? >> absolutely. a man with three assault convictions had a gun and was in an elevator with the president and the secret service didn't know it? when you combine that with the shooting incidents of 2011 and the white house intruder omar gonzalez, these are not isolated incidents. these are part of a systemic problem with the secret service. director pierson's appearance before the house committee was a disaster. she used that horrible

washington phrase "mistakes were made" several times. she did not do herself or the secret service any good. bill: there appears to be a coverup. has that been proven. reporter: you were talking about how far gonzalez got into the white house. the secret service initially said he was apprehended immediately after entering the front door of the white house. that wasn't the case. as far as the armed convicts in the elevator with the president we didn't even know about that until yesterday. the secret service had not made that clear. it's clear to lawmakers the secret service is covering up some of these failures. bill: what do you think at home? should someone lose their job in the secret service?

send us a tweet. ebola, isis, take your pick. wide open today. martha: too bad there is nothing to talk about. new jersey governor chris christie calling out the president on his handling of the threat from isis. he takes issues specifically with the comments on "60 minutes" when he said quote "they" under estimated the threat of isis. >> who is they within mr. president. it's you, your administration. you need to be accountable for that. martha: he will announce when he's running for president -- whether he's running for president. bill: syria coming into focus more than before. any shell bachmann will address all that and more live. far report suspect accused of murdering a real estate agent in

cold blood can't seem to stop talking to reporters. >> guilty. >> you want to plead guilty? >> yes. i want think it over with.

bill: people believe mr. obama does not want to engage the war in general. he does not want the united

states to launch major offensives against terror groups. therefore, the president looks away hoping the situation with isis will go away. now he's paying a price for his tragic take on isis. bill: new reports u.s. airstrikes against the terror group are suffering intelligence gaps and the pentagon is having trouble assessing how effective the airstrikes have been. do you agree with mr. o'reilly, the president would rather not have this issue on his plate. >> no question. the president of the united states ran in 2008 on the fact that iraq was a bad war, afghanistan was a good war. he as president was going to end the bad war. he feels like he fulfilled this promise. for the president of the united

states his view went according to his plan. the on the they can was reality clashed with the president's fantasy view. so we saw the rights of baghdad in the islamic state and that began with the car bombs and breaking out of prisoners out of terrorist jails. now we have the situation we have today. bill rrm it's intriguing syria is the bad war and iraq is becoming the good war. when you look at this coalition it only appears to be the coalition of the slightly willing. australia sent two unarmed planes. one is a refueling plane. >> this is kabuki theater rather than war. i think bill is right. the president of the united states doesn't want to engage in war. he thinks war is obsolete and

passe in the 21st century, akin to break and entering. this is tragic with tragic consequences. this could be laying the ground work for the beginning of a world war iii. that's a dr. mat he can thin --c thing to say and i don't want it to be. but when you have booed guys with bad actions we are seeing tragic consequences. bill: the intelligence gaps are tremendous. few human spotters are on the ground assessing the results of the airstrikes. >> we normally have air bases. we don't have them. even our nato partner turkey is turning us down for air bases. we don't have the telling we had

on the ground for afghanistan and iraq. third we are missing the human intelligence that's vital. it's nowhere on the ground. we are at a supreme disadvantage. the airstrikes are very costly. civilians are being killed because we can't prevents it. >> in the briefings you have had now, can you tell us publicly what whether we are having any impact on isis today in iraq or syria? are we knocking them back? do we have them on the run or are they going under ground to pop up another day. >> we have an impact but a far diminished impact than we could if we decided too be serious and take them on full frontal. the president wants to put the finest military on the shelf, the american military and instead use something else. we are not able to be effective. it's far better to get this done

quickly with less loss of life. bill: do you believe the facts were there and plain to see for the president in the last year? >> this was a policy decision on the part of the president not to see what was in front of his eyes. we all knew about it for years. behind closed doors both republican and democrats we gave it to the administration and said wake up. there is something very serious happening. bill: any heal bachmann, thank you. martha: authorities believe the disappearance of uva student hannah graham could be connected to other unsolved cases. bill: plastic shopping bags going the way of the dodo or the edsel.

bill: the man accused of kidnapping and killing an arkansas real estate agent is apparently having second thoughts about that afterwards. >> you wanted to plead guilty? >> yes. >> why? >> i want this over with. >> did your lawyer basically encourage you -- >> just sorry it all happened. bill: 49-year-old beverly carter was reported missing and search crews found her body at a concrete company where the suspect once worked. martha: police linked the 2009

death of morgan harrington to jesse matthew, now they are investigating the possible connection of another young woman in virginia. leland, what are we learn being this today? >> reporter: the list of jesse matthew's victim is growing. he's implicated with the disappearance of four women and now there is a fifth. cassandra more on was found dead down the road from charlottesville shortly after harrington was kidnapped and murder. there is a link between harrington and another sexual assault case near washington, d.c. that chain comes back to jesse

matthew who is charged with abduction of hannah graham. police have not allowed the media to come along with them as they go through densely wooded areas near charlottesville. a nearby college held a candlelight vigil. the 18-year-old sophomore hasn't been seen since surveillance video shows her with matthew on the charlottesville downtown mall. his lawyer says he hasn't seen the evidence the police have in the hannah graham case or the morgan harrington case. bill: it was one year ago today that obamacare enrollment began. they rolled out a website and do you remember this? >> we have to pass the bill so you can find out what is in it away from the fog of the controversy.

bill: a year later how's it going, folks? we are still in the courts as we find out more of what was and was not in that bill. could the fight or subsidies crumble the healthcare law? martha: my sit-down interview with governor christie * and i ask him when if he will run for president. and i asked him about isis. >> it's a tough situation and america knows it's a target.

bill: 9:30 in new york. a patient fighting the ebola virus at a hospital in dallas. it's the first days diagnosed in the u.s. an unidentified man recently traveled from liberia to dallas, texas. omar gonzalez facing 10 years in

prison. alton nolen facing murder charged after beheading a coworker. he's still in the hospital after being shot. martha: governor chris christie slamming president obama for not hitting at isis earlier. he took issue on the president's comments this weekend on 0 minutes -- on"60 minutes." >> it's your administration, mr. president, you need to be accountable. the president doesn't understand his own accountability for the world situation and pushes it off to "they." martha: alan colmes is the host of the alan colmes show. we'll show more of that interview and take on this issue

first. when you look at that. is he right? is the president talking about "they" and not "i"? >> he should have take on responsibility. we need to harper the buck stops here ala harp are you truman. the fact that he blamed intelligence i don't believe that was the right move, and he specifically blamed james clapper. martha: if he said it's james clapper's fault wouldn't it until that he needed to do something about james clapper? >> if it's james clamor's fault and that led to us not being aware -- if that's true, why would you still have a job? martha: it's pretty clear if you read the newspaper that we knew about it. that complicates things further, does it not? >> the buck should stop with the

president and not stop with him. this is a man who lied under oath to congress with surveillance of americans and the president said he didn't know about that either. the government accountability is reporting the president missed 0% of his daily presentings. he's not concerned enough that he's face to face with his briefers. cia, fbi, nsa and others. i fault the president for not being on top of the intelligence and seeing that which is there to be seen by all. >> if he's not getting the right intelligence, it's a problem. to say we are defending or protecting the united states by invading iraq again or going into syria as though that somehow makes us safer that's

where you and i disagree. i disagree with the fact that we are starting another war and refuse to calm it a war. martha: do you agree it' the president's responsibility to protect the country in the way he sees fit? >> yes, but i don't think we are protecting the country by starting another war in syria. martha: if you want to talk about the accountability issue, here is charles krauthammer on that. talking about the bigger secret service picture. >> it starts with a culture in washington which no one is accountable for anything. you say the word "i am accountable," "i am responsibility." and nothing happens. anybody who who says i take full responsibility ought to be required to resign within the hour. that's what it means when you

say "i take responsibility." martha: we saw that from julia l julia pierson yesterday. >> the president should fire these people. whether it's solyndra or fast and furious selling beguns to our enemies. -- selling guns to our enemies. or irs. the president never fired anybody. he takes accountability but where does the buck stop? >> solyndra is taking out of context. you are forgetting the positive companies that made money. martha: the point is, nobody ever gets fired, do they? >> clapper, i think should go if he believes what he says on 0 minutes. julia pierson the head of the

secret service should go if they are department is out of control. and we had an incident different just came out today in atlanta earlier this month where the president was in an elevator with a three times convicted felon who was -- you know, how could this possibly happen, and how can there not be a ruling -- >> martha: i don't think anybody would blame him but i don't think anyone would blame him if he cleared the decks. bring in the military to guard my house. my children are at risk. they had bullets fired. when one of his daughters was in the house. >> the president is in charge of the executive branch of government. these people report to him. he has direct supervise are you control. you know what? people sit back. they say i'll take responsibility, and nothing will happen.

and nothing happens. if people knew they were responsible and accountable, they need to take responsibility for these things. >> i think the president is backing the secret service for political reasons. martha: i can't imagine what those could be. >> julia pierson replaced the other head of the secret service in 2011 after there was another incidents at the white house. martha: they need big, big changes at secret service. we'll see what else governor christie has to say about isis and how the president is handling the threat to the homeland. he tells me when he plans to make his announcement about when he will run in 2016. bill: i imagine we'll see him in iowa soon, maybe. martha: he's been all or the

country backing other candidates. so that makes that possible. bill: the governor is coming up next hour. the american league wildcard game. as and royals went to extra innings. 2 out, 12th inning. that's cool, huh? i love that. salvador perez the hero in k.c. the as were up 7-3 in the 8th inning. they had that game won. the last time the royals played post-season baseball was 1985. the wild card game is tonight in pittsburgh. the pirates host the san francisco giants. martha: comedian tracy morgan is firing back after walmart put the blame on him for the

seat belts. the company said it's hoping to reach a settlement and it's committed to doing what is right. bill: one year to the day since enrollment began for obamacare. as the anniversary hits the court says feds cannot give subjects does in states that did not create their own exchange. want to talk about this now. money with melissa francis, ... money we brought you in to talk about the financial impact. but to the good doctor to my left, we brought you in to talk about how it's affecting you as a doctor and your patients. one year later, what's good and what's bad? >> first the good news. 8 million people have insurance that didn't have it before.

4 million are medicaid. and there is a problem with that because medicaid is easy to use but doesn't necessarily get you the care you need. the 6 million that were displaced most of them got understand on the state exchanged. in the doctors' offices there is havoc. first of all, there are high deductibles with the state exchange plans. even if your premiums are low because you are getting the big subsidy. 80% of people are getting this big subsidy. in 3 states it's being challenges in d in 36 states it's being challenges. the deductibles are so high my patients are saying i have got this new insurance but you want plea to go for this test and i can't pay for that. i cannot deliver the care i

want. the second part is i may not be on this narrow plan. a very narrow network. dr. siegel may not be on it or if i am the specialists are saying i don't want that obamacare plan. it's not paying me enough. so doctors are fleeing from it. then the insurance company may save money by using a narrow network of doctors. with a narrow network of doctors patients don't have the choices they want, they can't get the care they need and can't get into seeing the doctors they want. bill: money, what about you? >> employers are hiring less than they are cutting hours. if you look at the chamber customers, they asked their members, 21% of companies in the manufacturing business and 17% in the service industry, they say they have cut hours, they

have fired people or they have not hired new people as a direct result they say of the cost imposed on them by obamacare. and they didn't have the money to pay more. this is looking backwards. the company said this is what we'll do, a lot of people said they are just threatening. this is what already happened. one in five companies is cutting hours, wages and jobs. that's a problem. bill: what about siegel's point? can doctors afford to stay in the network under the plan? >> the "l.a. times" did taken exhaustist survey of this and it's not a right-leaning paper. they talked to the biggest providers of obamacare. health net is one of the biggest. they are cutting 54% of the doctors in their network. so that same policy if you are

in california and roll over from last year to next year you will see half the doctors disappear. at the same time the price for that policy is going up 9% as a result of doctors having been in it for one year, not making the money they need and they are dropping out. >> we mentioned this "new york times" poll. 51% still disapprove. pap lot of this is based on party lines. 81% of republicans are against it. it. >> it's affecting the employer-based policies':' they are changing like wild. the goal of the administration is to get more people on to the individual plans on the state exchange. do you know how they are doing that? premiums are high on employer based insurance. employers can't afford it. they are making everybody part time so they don't have to cover

these policies. they also have high deductibles and they are not useful in the doctor's office. bill: on healthcare.gov, is that price still going up? >> i tried to get numbers. when you ask people of silicon valley, isn't that expensive for a web site, they roll their eyes and look horrified. when you say what does it usually cost. that's not a number companies usually track because it's not that expensive. bill: you are above $2 billion for mc.gov. we d for healthcare.gov? do you see any of this changing? >> more people have insurance but the plan you have is worth less.

i think that's true to everyone out there. fewer doctors cost more, covers less. if you had nothing before, that lesser plains an improvement. but if you had understand before you are furious about this. >> i would just add, access is what's key to healthcare. you have got that card but the doctor isn't seeing you. the waiting rooms are filled up. bill: do you see anything changing for the better going forward? >> with the poll numbers like that there will be some pushback. it's to the benefit of insurance companies making more money and not to the patients and definitely not to the doctor. bill: dr. marc siegel. melissa francis. martha: one of the world's most deadly diseases diagnosed here on u.s. soil. should we be restricting flights from ebola hot zones?

bill: the green agenda is hitting the checkout aisle. [♪] iprise asked people a simple question: in retirement, will you outlive your money? uhhh. no, that can't happen. that's the thing, you don't know how long it has to last.

martha: california is the first in the nation to ban plastic bags at supermarket checkout lanes. no more bags. you can get paper. no plastic. >> reporter: this is a green measure but it's not about climate change. it's about litter. governor brown says we have to

stop littering the beaches, rivers and oceans with these plastic bags. so he passed a statewide law you can't take your stuff away in plastic bags. you have to buy a reusable plastic bag or a paper bag for 10 cents each. we'll look just like europe. martha: grocery stores sell the bags you can reuse if you remember to bring them in. but it's another rule, another regulation. another thing you have to remember and do. >> reporter: california loves rules and regulations, especially when promoted by the environmentalists. the counter argument is you are exaggerating the litter problem and it will have to be a pain in the neck to buy a bag any time you go anywhere to buy anything. that's the two sides of the fence. the american progressive bag

alliance which opposes the ban, they are trying to get sitting rrg fosignatures for a ballot initiative, then it will go on the ballot. martha: are they saying it does not present a pollution problem? >> up put one bag in the require and you polluted that river. martha: for the economy in california, businesses do not want to do business in california. me make it impossible for businesses with taxes, regulations and rules. it's tough on their economy. >> reporter: california is the most regulated state in the united states and this is one more rule and regulation which will make it a little less attractive for businesses to operate there. the cost of business going up.

martha: we have so many writers working onlines like that. bill: another security breach for the secret service. a man an arrested three times allowed in an elevator with a gun with our commander-in-chief. martha: how do you connect the dots to catch a serial killer.

martha: another misstep for the agency in charge of protecting the president of the united states. a man with a long violent criminal history standing just feet from president obama in an elevator and the man was armed the entire time. unbelievable story as we welcome you to the next hour of "america's newsroom."

bill: good morning. the man riding in the elevator with the president and said to be acting strangely. the secret service had no idea who was or that he had a weapon. this report comes a day after lawmakers grilled the secret service administrator. you have a convicted felon within arm's reach of the president and you never did a back ground check in. words aren't strong enough for me, the outrage i feel for the safety of the president and his family. >> reporter: last week the president and the fence jumper issue surfaced, not the atlanta situation. the president said he had full confidence in the secret service. josh earnest at the podium got question after question. he seemed to be digging in and

defending julia pierson even though her performance on the hill was -- was panned by democrats as well as republicans. the secret service gets it right most of the time. but some of these -- of these screwups have been high profile. the president was on an elevator with the president an was acting strangely and he had a record of three felonies and had a gun. it appears from pierson's testimony yesterday, it appeared that the president would not -- was not bread on that situation in atlanta. that might help the white house lose confidence in jewel why pearson if she was not up front and didn't tell the president about that. >> you wonder how the president

feels knowing his security was breached. and whether or not just his own reaction to that and his family's reaction to that might lead to the firing of pearson. >> the president picked her so they may be dug in a bit to give her a chance to fix this. it's interesting because you have republican jason chaffetz on the kelly file who said she needs to go. watch elijah cummings. this morning he says he has lost confidence in julia pierson and said basically after the testimony he heard yesterday, he had trouble sleeping because he really does fear for the president's safety. the bottom line is it's becoming a non-partisan issue unlike a lot of issues on capitol hill. we have republicans and democrats saying she has got to go. martha: it's a question of accountability and eventually

someone has to be held accountable when all of these breaches keep happening. thank you very much. bill: fox news alert. the director of the cdc said it will stop ebola in its tracks. after the first patient the u.s. diagnosed with that deadly virus. the man known as patient zero is in isolation in a hospital in dallas, texas. he traveled to the united states from west africa and was here for 9 days before the symptoms started showing. now it's awaiting game to see if anyone else could have been infected. >> the initial symptoms of ebola are often non-specific, they are symptom that may be associated with other conditions. that's why we have encouraged all emergency department physicians to take a history of travel within the last 21 days. and then to do rapid testing. >> so now you have a bit of a mystery on your hands.

how are you, doc, and good morning. the cdc says we'll contain it. will they? >> i think they will. there are a lot of things we have in our favor. when he was talking about non-specific symptoms we don't want people at home to get worried. a lot of the us have symptoms, a soarp throat, fever, headache. these are common when we move into cold and flu season. bill: why without take so long for doctors to diagnose him? >> at first they proper hi thought he had regular cold and flu symptoms. so they probably waited to test him. but the other thing is for people who are at home, they shouldn't worry he might have spread ebola itself. it can only be spread once you start getting sick. then the other fact is it spreads through body fluids. so blood and urine. most of us, we don't come into

contact with other people's body fluids. this is not spread through the air. and for healthcare workers we wear all this gear, but it's not that most people need it. healthcare workers are more at risk. bill: it's not airborne, correct? so the other passengers on board that plane, would they be at risk? >> no, they would be safe. because he started showing symptoms 4 days after he landed here. they would be safe. now the cdc is tracking other contacted after he started showing symptoms. martha: new questions on what's being done to stop people infected with the virus from entering the country. here is charles krauthammer. >> british air is not allowing its airlines go in that part of the world. the faa shut down the ben gurion

airline for two days. we need to think about at what point we shut down our service in that part of the world as the epidemic increases. martha: chris tires walt, digital politics, i guess we are looking to err on the side of caution. >> reporter: the goal for the administration is nobody panic. don't panic. they don't want people anxious about african immigrants, they don't want upheaval. people do irrational things when they get panicky about the most frightening epidemic that americans have ever thought of. they make movies about it. so they don't want that panic to spread. but at the same time we have seen a shifting line. you say everything is fine and it's just over there. there is some of them but the americans we are bringing over her. now you have one case in the united states.

the next logical question from a political point of view of is why would the government allow people to come in from ebola-affected countries at all. why is that necessary to do? i would manage the administration will have to have a better answer about why they think it's okay or necessary to import people from those areas. reporter: as you say, and you tracked it perfectly in terms where this has grown, then we all watched the people in the zip-up suits bringing in doctors. god bless them. people who put their own lives on the line. we are glad to say they recovered once they are back on u.s. soil. you have got one case now, do you think we have two? do you think we have three six weeks from now? it's very, very possible. i think the american people's attitude on this is going to change a bit, chris. is the white house sort of ready to move with it? >> there is an overlay here

about the debate and discussion about immigration. it was a century ago when added with concerns about epidemics whether it was typhoid fever or which kind of influenza led to a new approach to immigration in the united states, or health screening of immigrants at ellis island. the white house is keen to hold open the possibility of immigration reform changes to immigration laws and those things. meanwhile republicans as we saw with the border crisis as it still is going on with the unaccompanied minors, when there are problems with who is coming into the united states and how they are coming in, it dramatically cuts against support for large-scale immigration. and that's in washington the under pinning for this debate. yes there are concerns about ebola but there is a larger policy concern that the white house is trying to preserve its opportunities on.

martha: thank you very much. we'll hear a lot more about this story. obviously you want cooler heads to prevail but i don't think anyone coming from one of those companies would find it objectionable or curious if they were tested. if you had an area or whether even if those lights were stopped until it looks like the situation is clear in the countries they are coming from. bill: when have been having this debate all morning what's appropriate and what is not. a bizarre murder case. the mayor of an l.a. suburb shot to death after a fight with his wife. so why did police let her go. >> the people who decide to run will make that decision i hope on what they think is best for themselves, their family and their country. >> martha: will he or won't he. governor chris christy, we'll hear what his decision is going to be. bill: a new twist in the scandal

over security. congressman trey gowdy pressing the head of the secret service. he's here in a moment. >> i'm asking you why a housekeeper who doesn't go to glenco who doesn't spent 14 weeks of training and 18 weeks of there after found glass and your agents did not.

bill: a california mayor shot and killed inside his own home

during a family argument. bell gardens mayor was shot multiple times allegedly by his wife. the l.a. county sheriff's department says they were arguing when their son intervened. that's when she allegedly got a gun and shot her husband. >> it's tragic domestic violence did away with our friend. >> i spoke with him less than two weeks ago. he was always a kind man around me. it's just tragic. bill: he was rushed to the hospital where he later died. his wife was released after hours of questioning. martha: the secret service under intense scrutiny stoamp security lapses at the white house. the head of the agency taking heat from lawmakers in a hearing

on capitol hill. congressman trey gowdy pressed her on why it took days for agents to investigate back in 2011. listen to this exchange. >> this is just processing a crime scene. this is not high math. it's processing a crime scene. you don't need 18 weeks of training to be able to do that. you just need to be able to walk around. why wasn't it done? >> it's my understanding a perimeter sweep was done. wait as thorough as it needed to be in. >> evidently not. >> martha: there was a lot of that in the hearing yesterday. congressman trey gowdy joins us now. i want to start, can you fill in the blanks on this story for everybody who may not have heard this particular incident. >> there were shots fired and contemporaneous wi those shots being fired several agents recognized it as being just that

but a supervisor said it was a construction vehicle backfiring so they essentially said stand down, no shots fired. she says they did a perimeter sweep, but it must not have been terribly good because they didn't get any of the evidence and a housekeeper five days later found that a window had been shattered. i'll let you draw your own conclusion. if the secret service agent with all the training and experience and intensive training they have, and hah house keeper found it it must not have been a thorough search. martha: you think about your own impressions of secret service. i think of them as people willing to take a bullet for the president or any member of his family. that they are so highly trained and so trusted to be this close to the first family of the united states. so these stories going back to colombia as well are so

disheartening to so americans. it makes you wonder how it could take this long and this can incidents for even the potential for accountability. >> yesterday was very hard for me. i do not enjoy criticizing law enforcement. it's among my least fast it things to do. but we asked secret service agents to do scene extraordinary job and it takes extraordinary people to do it. and the margin or error is zero when you are a secret service agent. up understand episodic mistakes and guessing wrong. i don't understand this culture existing in the secret service right now. you are the elevate jar incidents, you have the fence jumper and if it weren't for jason chaffetz, i don't know that we would know any of this. martha: there was a former secret service member on the kelly file who talked about

nelson mandela's funeral. he said that was such a difficult area to secure. there was no way the president should have attended. then we learned the man doing sign language nearby had history as well. what would you expect to hear from the white house about all this? >> well, if the white house has confidence in the secret service they are unique in our country right now. when elijah cummings says he has lost confidence in someone. he's hardly a tea party republicans. he does not cite size the administration unless it is warranted and he has lost confidence in director pierson's leadership. they are not going to ask me whether i think she on the to stay. ' they don't care what i think. i hope they care what he thinks and they would be tired of seeing a well respect long standing institution like the

secret service be the butt of jokes. i would think they would want to move in another direction with a new leader and change the culture of the secret service. right now it's not acceptable. >> you think they will be safe. that has to be utmost in all of the family members' minds. trey gowdy thank you very much for coming in today. good to speak with you. bill: police think they might be on the trail of a serial killer in the state of virginia. forensic pastologist michael baden will tell us what investigators are look for after a series of female victims. martha: who needs caffeine. adrenaline judgeys, here is your energy shot of the day. oh, my.

>> how about this, just coming in from the cyber security conference this morning over the expanding threat from isis. mike rogers says in the group wants to expand capabilities to include cyber terrorism is one of the things they become capable of pulling off, social media network is the key to all of that. >> some estimates are $3400 per month. the social media recruiting efforts. that part is all dangerous. i don't see them yet engaging in the cyber attack mode, if you will. >> 3400 people per month recruited to isis through social media coming from a social

security event. >> they are checking of his native to several cases. he is being held first off in the disappearance of hannah graham. she went missing in charlottesville. they are looking for possible connection the death of chandra, her body was found a few weeks after. forensic evidence linking him to the death of a virginia tech student from the same year, 2009. forensic pathologist and fox news contributor, good morning to you. do you think they are on to something bigger here? >> yes, i am sure there are carefully looking for at least a dozen missing women and murdered women. i have a list of 13 cases including the last one, gotten

together, eight missing women and four bodies found including the two you mentioned them 2009. they are looking for evidence of connections. they may have found some evidence looking in his car and his residence that could connect them to some others. bill: 12 or 13 cases they are now looking into. in four of those cases they found the body. that is critical when it comes to evidence. do we know enough you have to answer this question about a serial killer? >> we know enough to say he is a serial rapist because he had to go rape charges connections the person did not die, but whether he is a serial murderer will depend on further evidence the police are gathering. very hard to gather evidence on

missing people unless the killer is taking trophies like clothing or jewelry. maybe there is something from the car or his residence, but they are looking into it, i'm sure. >> for a while he played football at liberty. the school has confirmed in 2002, 12 years ago at age 20 there was a rate case. >> he wasn't arrested. the other student did not want to bring charges so he would not be even in the database if they had a database. >> when you go to try to link these cases, the body is one thing and all the dna evidence probably leads you to what could be at this point based on medicine and science a conclusive answer. my question to you when it comes to law enforcement, sometimes

you find prosecutors who try to lump all the cold cases into one category of blame. they have to be real careful be at >> you are absolutely right. we have had situations in the past homeless murders have been contributed three serial murder. it turns out they weren't connected. but in this case all of these missing and murdered people came from the same area. in the '70s we had ted bundy who killed more than 30 women, but he did it from the east coast to the west coast. these are all in the same spot so it is easier to identify the suspicious cases. >> we are wishing the for the family and for her as well. doctor, thank you. nice seeing you again. >> a u.s. marine still being

held in a mexican jail after all these months. there is now renewed push to free the sergeant. as the house hearing is underway right now. learning the details of where this case may go now. >> senator john mccain coming out swinging not take i a respoe ability for growing threat from isis. we will talk to colonel oliver north of what is happening today. >> the way these airstrikes are being conducted reminds me of a war a long time ago called the vietnam war when gradual escalation caused us to lose it.

>> renewed hope that a u.s. marine being held in a mexican jail may finally be freed. a live look at capitol hill where a house subcommittee hearing is underway on this. he has been imprisoned in mexico since late march. his mother is speaking now.

we understand there is some breaking news in this case today. >> a dramatic turn in the last 24 hours. the defense will rest its case this morning putting andrew on a path home which appears increasingly likely for two reasons. after fighting tooth and nail the prosecutor now seems to be seeking a quick and graceful ending to the case after examining on monday there psychologist concluded not only does he have ptsd, he recommended he be treated in the united states and the prosecutor agreed. police cannot hold a suspect for more than three hours. they held andrew for nearly eight. undermining the prosecution's case so this morning his lawyer will rest his case triggering a number of deadlines and the judge could decide in the next three weeks and he could return

home. >> let's hope. his mother is getting very emotional in all of this, she has been a guest on a number of programs on the channel. tell us what is happening today. >> the purpose of the hearing may have already been achieved. while the administration has not publicly criticized mexico, congress can and will. calling a mexican attorney general last week and said it was time he came home. while he respected their sovereignty and due process, the case was dragging on and he gave the ptsd bindings on behalf of the army and today his mother's testifying followed by montel williams who has been critical of the administration for not doing more. they will make the case he made the mistake and because of the

condition, the judgment may have been dismissed and 80 crossed into mexico. the right thing to do would be to dismiss the case or allow him to get the case he needs in the u.s. so that appears what is happening. back to you. >> let's hope he is home soon. thank you so much. >> a bigger problem with this president, the dog ate my homework routine is getting a little tiresome. it started for six years blame it on bush and now the jv has turned into super bowl contestants. >> john mccain accused the president of passing the buck on isis. sending 2000 marines to the middle east to act as a quick response team. retired marine, fox's poetry

analyst, author of the book. good morning to you. a loss to go over in the next three minutes. quick reaction, the unit will go to kuwait. you see that as significant. >> it certainly is, it reflects what is happening on the ground in baghdad. there was an established team established in case things turn south as they already have around baghdad. they are now held by isis meaning if you are trying to get out, the only way to get out would be from the green zone and fly north. we have a lot more american contractors on the ground then we do u.s. military boots but most of them are former military. one of them told me things are

bad, but it is not saigon yet. referring to that last night in vietnam in which he was a prisoner for for six years and had too many trips. what we are seeing is an effort to adapt to a situation that is not responding to this administration. they thought coalition airstrikes against isis forces would stop the isis advance, they have now continued to hold where i spent many months reporting for this network. on sunday ambushed iraqi security force preventing the fourth from leaving. the forces supported by the coalition airstrikes aren't getting the kind of support this administration told us they were going to deliver. can't confirm independently if

they do capture the town across the border where 100,000 have flooded, that would be a positive sign. bill: there is a vacuum of information. they don't want to put their lives on the line, that is why they have pulled out. there is also a clearing reports today that suggests the intelligence on the ground is not what it needs to be to assess the battlefield. so you know what the results are, colonel. >> that point is repeatedly made by senator mccain. you have to put u.s. air controllers out there with iraqi and kurdish units all the ways you have no way of doing it, cannot pick targets from 65,000 feet as he can from guys on the ground supporting the army. that is one of the reasons this

unit was reeling out there. we don't even know the casualty count yet. the idea we can support this operation 24/7 operation overhead isn't happening. they get a 15 hours safe haven because we need another carrier. bill: final question, colonel. the of administration is going to fly the flag on this coalition. but you have four or five countries supporting syria about that much. the royal air force out of the uk did fly in iraq yesterday, today austria committed to go unarmed aircraft. this does not seem like the coalition of the willing. this inside the coalition of the slightly kind of may be willing.

>> the fact is none of them have assurance this commander-in-chief is going to stay the course that is necessary. he wants to degrade and destroy isis. there's no indication he means that. therefore i don't blame those saying we cannot commit any more to it right now. >> thank you, sir. martha: the controversy of the washington redskins takes a new term. even saying the words could be banned on sports tv. bill: what chris christie says about his decision not to run for the white house in 2012. >> do you ever wish you would have ran last time when some a people wanted you to run?

bill: here is a thrilling race, check it out. breathtaking twists and turns along a rocky terrain. try that. a 72-foot canyon cap. that takes some guts. came in second like three years in a row. martha: you taught him how to do that. all right, new jersey governor chris christie always on the short list people talk about is a potential candidate for 2016. i had a chance to sit down with the governor yesterday. we talked about a lot of topics. your some of the highlights. >> how do you think the president is doing and handling that pervasive unease talks about in this country right now? >> i did it help when he was on

six minutes saying they underestimated isis. it is your administration. you have to be accountable for that. people are more nervous when he doesn't understand his own accountability for the current situation. somehow pushes it off for a day. he needs to be accountable. yes to come out with a firm, strong plan about how to deal with this and bring the coalition of people around the world to deal with it. those things will help to make folks feel better about the situation although it is a tense situation, america knows it is disheartening. martha: you ever wish you had run last time when so many people wanted you to run and you spend the weekend thinking over deciding it wasn't your moment?

>> never had a second thought about it. mitt romney was the best person to run a 2012, that is why i supported him and we don't have any second thoughts about 2012 at all. i think i made the right decision for me, my family, my party and for my country. that is it only we can judge these things. >> what if he wants run against which mark >> that is his choice. everyone is different in the recycle that comes up is different and people who decide to run make the decision i hope on what is best for themselves, their family and their country. martha: how are you feeling? >> i feel good. life is a gift, i feel pretty good. martha: when will you make your decision? >> after the first of the year. martha: wyse is important, and why now? >> something people have been working on, part of it comes

from my background. i was a prosecutor but i served on the board of the drug treatment facility for number of years before i came u.s. attorney and governor. it really struck me to see the families that came in there at the time and raise my awareness this can happen to anyone anywhere anytime. so i felt like the governor was something i could have an effect on people's lives and some they have been working on the last five years. i lost a friend six months ago was one of my best friends in law school. we had our children together. he tried so hard to fight his disease and eventually succumbsd to it after losing his wife, losing his children, losing his job, losing his place to live in and was found dead in a motel room. i miss my friend.

i know there are things i can do as governor that will help prevent that tragedy for lots of other families. martha: what you say to those conservatives who talk about more court, more treatment programs, more government, a bigger bureaucracy. >> what i say to them is it is cheaper. it cost $40,000 per year to house someone in a state prison for a year and $25,000 to give that same person in patients drug treatment. even if you don't care about saving that life, even if you are one of those people who don't care about it from that perspective, it makes more sense from a physical perspective as well. not mentionin mention of the pen recovers, they become a tax paying productive mother, father, sister, brother, son, daughter and makes the society a better place. this is a no lose. martha: the site of whitney

houston's funeral and passer carter spoke at the funeral was there, some issue very near and dear to people, something chris christie says is going to be very front and center as he goes forward trying to become a domestic issue. some new numbers on governor christie that came out, voters giving him one of the lowest approval ratings he has had. 45% disapprove, that's just came out today. when you look at the presidential numbers, he was much higher by double digits at one point for potential candidates. if he decides to tell everybody after the first of the year, he will have a crowded field and more difficult numbers at this stage of the game. hillary is going to say in january as well.

bill: what are you working on, eric? >> al-asiri has arrived in our country despite the promises from politicians and medical professionals the disease is unlikely to return to shores. we will have in-depth analysis and live reporting on what you need to know. and word u.s. and british airstrikes along with kurdish forces have in making some progress against radical islamic terrorist of isis. new arguments over the warnings we may have had about terrorists in iraq and syria. new concerns isis may be a threat inside the u.s. here in our country right here as well. important questions of those alleged threats. bill: some college kids trying to break a world record. just what mom and dad wants to see from campus. get after it.

martha: students at the university of california irvine are hitting the books and hitting each other with pillows. setting a guinness world record for the largest pillow fight. this isfifth world record, and it includes the world's largest water gun fight. bill: anything outside the classroom, we excel at. martha: that is what you get for your tuition. bill: stepping into the battle over the name washington redskins considering a petition to punish broadcasters for using the name under rules against

obscenity. the story in washington, d.c. good morning. >> good morning, bill. it is the fcc to intervene here? possibly. they left the door open in an interview saying there are a lot of names and descriptions used over time that are inappropriate today. the name washington redskins football tea teams one of thoseg asking the fcc to shut down a radio station owned by the owner of the redskins because broadcasters used the word redskins to talk about the team. >> it is clear a moral suasion is not working. every major american in the organization hasn't worked, it'll take economic pressure, and if he can't get his name used on air on radio or television, he is going to have

to change it or go broke. >> the decision will be made by the five fcc commissioners. bill: what has been the reaction from the team? >> daniel snyder says the name washington redskins embodies strength, courage, pride and respect. those are values snyder wrote in an open letter a year ago that guide native americans in which are embedded through their rich history as original americans. he set up a foundation to help tribes around the country. some in congress believe the fcc should let the free market handle this and not the government. >> this is a private business. people in the community should make the decision, the federal government has other things to do. >> another government agency also went after the team name in june caps on the trademark registration. bill: thank you, molly. phil simms refused his pay

during the broadcast. martha: moments away from benjamin netanyahu. this is going to be one to watch, he will be sitting down with president obama, what will they discuss? iran will definitely be on the list.

it came in for a landing and did quite well. we are going on the radio with brian because it is wednesday and that is usually our therapy session together. martha: i will see you tonight on o'reilly. have a good day. >> there are the growing concerns about the spread of al-asiri at the center for disease control confirms the first o in the case of this disease that has been diagnosed in this country. hello, everyone, welcome to "happening now." the patient travele travel froma to texas but he showed no symptoms of the disease when he got on the plane from west africa. that all change this past weekend when he was rushed to a dallas hospital two days after being sent home from there with a
