rvice. security. savings. synchrony bank engage with us. hello. welcome to a brand-new hour of "america's news headquarters." >> topping the news this hour, the first case of ebola striking the country's largest city. an update on dr. spencer's condition and how this case is prompting other states to toughen up their ebola policies. it's ten days and counting until the crucial midterm elections. the senate could switch hands. you may be surprised why so many house seats are considered toss-ups. what's behind the status quo and why? and more on that terrifying hatchet attack on two new york

city officers this week, now being classed as a case of home-grown terrorism. we begin with a fox news alert on that tragic school shooting outside of seattle. police now recovering a .40-caliber handgun from the high school cafeteria, the location police say a student identified at jaylen fryberg opened fire on classmates killing one, wounding four others, then killing himself. we're learning a first-year social studies teacher reportedly tried to stop him. it appears the gunman was targeting his cousins. dominic di-natale is covering the story. >> the impact on the marysville community being demonstrated by spontaneous displays of support. we can show you the fence around the school where the tokens of sympathy are being added. the town reeling from the events a mere 28 hours ago. let us not forget that.

the mood all the more somber as it's emerging that perhaps the tragedy could have been avoided. the twitter account of fryberg punctuated with anger and emotional anguish in the months running up to yesterday's horror. it starts off with tuesday of this week, october 21st, he tweets this, it breaks me, it actually does, i know it seems like i'm sweating it off but i'm not and i will never be able to. and an indication he appears angry was two months ago, he writes, you're going p me off. and then he tweet, you're not going to like what happens next. police are looking at those comments and questions asked why his emotional state really hadn't been taken more gravely. the authorities have now released the identities of those he's injured. that's a development today. andrew fryberg is 15 years old.

nate hatch, 14. both of those guys were his cousins. one suffered a shot to the head. another to the jaw. they're both in the icu. the hospital is short time ago saying nate's condition is serious but improving. andrew remains critical. two of the female victims, doctors say the next few days are going to be cruung people a monitored moment by moment. they have a nurse at their bedside constantly. a doctor is nearby constantly. all the neurosurgeons have rounded this morning and will be here rounding throughout the day. but this will be a process. we won't know a whole lot more for the next two or three days. >> the girl fryberg shot dead, her name's not been released. appears to have been the love interest. he got upset when she turned her attention to his cousin, a complex family situation there.

no doubt the police will be trying to determine from the families what exactly the nature of the relationship was there and how it came about. but, of course, it appears that both his former girlfriend and his cousin amongst his victims. it could be complicated to get any answers. >> so sad and tragic. dominic di-natale, thanks, dominic. we have another fox news alert for you now, that new york city doctor turned ebola patient still listed in stable condition. he remains locked in isolation, said to be resting comfortably at this hour. dr. craig spencer returned from the west african country of guinea after volunteering to treat ebola patients for the group doctors without borders. he's being treated at bellevue hospital in manhattan. this as tighter state regulations go into effect for those international travelers who have had contact with ebola patients in three west african countries for those who arrive back here. bryan has the latest.

>> doctors say that dr. spencer is awake and communicating but his disease has entered, quote, the next phase and is experiencing gastrointestinal symptoms. he's taken plasma as part of his treatment. doctors expect his condition to get worse before it gets better. he's been described as being in relatively stable condition. now, earlier today, mayor bill de blasio here in new york city and the city's health commissioner visited the meatball shop in lower manhattan, one of three places dr. spencer visited over the last few days, to reassure the public that the city is safe. >> every action was followed up, each institution was cleared, the situation is normal.

>> spencer's fiancee and two friends will remain in quarantine until november 14th as a precaution. dr. spencer arrived last week from guinea where he treated ebola patients as a volunteer with the non-profit doctors without borders. during that week, spencer self-monitored himself and lived his daily life, going to restaurants, a bowling alley, riding in subways and a taxi. some suggested the doctor was irresponsible and should have quarantined himself. the mayor and the health commissioner today defended dr. spencer saying he followed responsible protocol. but following dr. spencer's case, illinois, new york and new jersey have adopted strict quarantine measures, including the big one which is the mandatory 21-day quarantine for anyone, including health care workers, who have been in contact with ebola patients in west africa regardless of whether or not they are showing symptoms. now, earlier today, the first health care worker to be quarantined under this new policy arrived at newark international airport yesterday.

she was tested for ebola twice, a preliminary test at the hospital and the cdc did a test. she came out as negative for ebola. but we're just getting a report out of the dallas morning news and she tells the paper that she feels like she was actually mistreated during the whole process. she says she didn't have a fever. it was merely a flush and that they didn't do a good job explaining anything about the process. so more to come on that, i'm sure. >> absolutely. thank you, bryan. >> ebola is turning into a hot political issue just ahead of the midterm elections. a week from tuesday, the white house is boosting its response as the cdc implements new measures. then the governors of new york, new jersey, illinois and now florida as bryan just reported, added even tougher guidelines. and peter doocy is covering this for us. >> president obama wants the rest of the country to look at

the big apple and take note of the way they went about their business undeterred by the ebola patient isolated on the east side. >> we can beat this disease. but we have to stay vigilant, we have to work together at every level, federal, state and local and we have to keep leading the global response because the best way to stop this disease, the best way to keep americans safe is to stop it at its source in west africa. >> but republicans see things differently. house overnight committee chairman darrell issa may agree with the president that a ban on travel from affected areas would be inappropriate but issa says it would be a big mistake to downplay the situation. he asked w-- >> if this is an outbreak of people who don't have wills in

west africa or if there were an outbreak on contested elections in africa, i'd say, hire mr. klain. but it's a medical crisis. why not you? >> i really appreciate the vote of confidence and i have a lot of confidence in mr. klain. >> we are learning now that an air force plane used to transport a sample of new york dr. craig spencer's blood from new york to atlanta will not be quarantined because the blood samples were handled by hazardous materials and the pentagon says there's no indication anything leaked. >> peter, thank you very much for that update. turning to bleak ebola numbers from the world health organization. they now say the number of ebola cases has surpassed the 10,000 mark in west africa. and they say of those, nearly half have died. officials warn the numbers are likely to grow even more since

most people in west africa have not sought medical care. mali has become the sixth country in africa to report a case of ebola. a 2-year-old girl traveled from guinea and has now died. fox news alert, the nypd saying a hatchet attack against a group of four rookie police officers in broad daylight was indeed an act of terror. the suspect managing to strike two of the officers with that ax before being fatally shot. one of those officers is still in the hospital with a head injury. meantime, in canada, the grounds of parliament hill reopening to the public just days after a gunman opened fire there killing a 24-year-old soldier. the building itself is expected to reopen to visitors on monday. now to the fight against the

radic radical islamic terrorists in syria. the u.s. military is stepping up its air strikes against those terrorists in and near kobani. coalition planes air dropping even more weapons to help those brave kurds who are holding out. john huddy has this report from our mideast bureau. >> the u.s.-led air strikes have targeted isis positions, vehicles, weapons, artillery and also buildings being used for the storage and production of weapons. now, a u.s. air strike hit isis artillery in the syrian town of kobani where the fight between kurdish forces and isis militants continues. we're getting reports the militants have launched a ground offensive with the fighting concentrated on the southern and eastern edges of the town. and isis has reportedly attacked kurdish troops with mortar and

artillery fire. while the kurdish forces have managed to hold off the isis offensive for a month, the question remains whether they can continue to do so if relief, more ground troops, artillery and supplies, doesn't come anytime soon. as far as weapons being used by isis, there are allegations that isis militants used chlorine gas on iraqi security forces and also shiite militiamen last month just north of baghdad. and if true, this raises serious questions about the use of chemical weapons by isis militants. >> thanks so much. egypt's president says yesterday's deadly attack on a man at an army checkpoint in the sinai peninsula was a foreign-funded operation. that's the news there. officials there also vowing to take drastic action against militants in the region. the coordinated attack involved a car bomb, roadside bombs and

rocket-propelled grenades, killing 31 egyptian troops. it was the deadliest attack against the country's army in decades. no one has claimed responsibility so far. there's been another execution in iran. this time, a woman, for killing a former intelligence official who allegedly tried to rape her. iranian media reporting the woman was hanged for premeditated murder. she claimed self-defense after stabbing that man in 2007 when she was just 19 years old. but the iranian court rejected that saying evidence shows, according to that court, that she planned the killing. the u.s. state department issued a statement condemning this execution. this as iranian resistance groups say the number of people being executeded in that count has only been increasing. early voting is already under way in some states for the midterm elections. control of the senate is at

stake. the attorney general's named six more states where same-sex couples are eligible for federal benefits. plus, a report that hospital staff who once promised to help their patients are afraid to come to work because of one patient with ebola. >> he's a doctor and even he didn't follow the guidelines for the quarantine. let's be honest. so we have to do more. it's too serious a situation to leave it to the honor system of compliance. that's why we created programs which encourage people to take their medications regularly. so join us as we raise a glass to everyone who remembered today. bottoms up, america. see you tomorrow. same time. another innovation from cvs health.

♪ music fans around the world mourning the death of a true rock a roll original. jack bruce died today at his home in england. according to friends. he was the guitar player of the band cream.

the band sold 35 million albums in just over two years also paving the way for psychedelic rock with classics. a family statement reads, the world of music will be a poorer place without him but he lives on in his music and forever in our hearts. jack bruce, dead today at 71. meanwhile, have you heard about this, u.s. attorney general eric holder has now added some more states that the federal government is recognizing on same-sex married couples. arizona, arizona, idaho, north carolina, west virginia and wyoming. the move comes after the supreme court decided to decline to hear any pending cases regarding same-sex marriage. with mr. holder's announcement, same-sex couples are now recognized by the federal government in 32 states. another school shooting in america and two more young lives

gone. a high school freshman near seattle opening fire at lunchtime. he kills one, injures several others and kills himself. police haven't determined a motive. but it might be over a girl. tammy bruce is a radio talk show host and doug schon joins us. we have no idea of the shooter's mental stability. what's it going to take to bring issues surrounding mental health to the forefront in this country? >> it's been frustrating. that's the question. of columbine, certainly after newtown, that became the major conversation because it's obvious that there are certain issues. certainly at newtown. i remember the whole conversation. i'm sure you did nationwide. and yet nothing occurred. and i think the problem is that if there isn't in washington

some kind of significantt political gain by taking action, no action is taken. there's only an interest if it suits a particular political agenda. and yet this is what we should be doing nationally and federally when it comes to education and basic standards and addressing each school and at least sending a message nationally about what is important on these issues. in addition to that, a few years ago, 25% of people 17 and under were on a prescription drug. two years ago, it was reported that those on adhd drugs that are mind-altering drugs, that jumped 46%. so those are issues we have to deal with as well when it comes to drugs, prescription drugs and minors. >> doug, what do you think is going on? >> first of all, let me say on issues like this, there should be no democratic and republican way of thinking. what we need to do is to make

sure that teenagers, particularly those with troubled lives, do not get guns. there's no reason for that. i happen to believe that we need a tighter system of background checks to prevent these kind of tragedies. but on a day like today, i think the answer really is to say that we need better parenting, we need better control of the legally available guns that exist in our society and we all have to pull together as a society to try to help those with serious problems. >> indeed. let me go to another topic to discuss with you two. the new york city health officials are saying the doctor fighting ebola at bellevue hospital is entering the new phase of his illness. this is just coming in to fox news. but he is awake and communicating. officials also say dr. spencer's fiancee will return home this evening under quarantine. meanwhile, we're now seeing reports that staff at bellevue hospital are reluctant to care for dr. craig spencer.

the "new york post" says staff calling in sick and those who are working are terrified to enter the doctor's isolation chambers. doug, this is symptomatic of what? >> this is symptomatic of something else that's contagious in our society which is fear. we don't have the protocols to treat ebola. we don't have a clear plan, as governor cuomo was saying, to deal with the issues of quarantine. and i think given the degree of uncertainty that exists, we need leadership from the federal government and state government to have a clear plan and strategy to prevent the kind of uncertainty that is here in new york and indeed arguably around the country. >> tammy, what's your take on this? >> this is the problem is that you hear one thing but then you see actions that are the opposite. i think that's what's worrying like nurses groups. a week ago, a major nurses group

said the cdc and the white house was lying to them and ignored them. these are the front-line people that have contracted the virus. we're seeing contradictory messages. if we see officials sanitizing the doctor's entire route that day, on the other hand, we're told that if you've got the hazmat suit on and you're following protocols, you won't be infected. it seems like what we're being told is different than what the officials are doing and that does not breed confidence when it comes to the nature of who's going to be at risk and if we really are more at risk than what the federal government is saying. >> doug, ten seconds left, you get the last word. >> rii think we really need to pull together and stand together as a society to conquer this. and with a divided election coming up, hopefully we can all agree on that.

>> stand together. tam tammy, doug, thanks to both of you. >> thank you. a record-breaking supersonic jump on the edge of space. coming up, what prompted another death-defying daredevil this time to plummet 130,000 feet. plus, the midterms are upon us and they're saying the senate may change hands. but you'll be surprised how few house seats are considered in play. what the politicians have figured out that affects all of us. >> this is going to be a big year for republicans. we're going to pick up senate seats, house seats and state seats across the country. >> if you vote for democrats, you are voting for candidates who are focused on creating jobs, getting the economy turned around and continuing to move us forward. take 4 advil in a day or just 2 aleve for all day relief. honey, you did it! baby laughs!

it's the bottom of the hour. time for the top of the news. authorities in washington state recovering a .40-caliber handgun after the tragic shooting at a high school in marysville. the gunman identified as jaylen fryberg killed one student and seriously wounded four others before they say he killed himself. new york city health officials soy the doctor fighting ebola at bellevue hospital is entering the next phase of his illness but is awake and communicating. dr. spencer's fiancee will return home this evening under quarantine. new york city's police commissioner says thursday's hatchet attack on those four rookie police officers is an act of terrorism. one officer was hit in the head and remains in critical but stable condition. the other was hit in the arm and is now out of the hospital. that suspect you see there, officials say, was following

online isis propaganda. a number of key senate races appear to be tightening up with candidates digging in for the home stretch. >> taking a look at what may be the five hottest senate races right now. in new hampshire, democrats are hoping jeanne shaheen can keep that seat. but scott brown is making it a tight race. the real clear politics average of polls has shaheen leading by 1.8 points. but that does not include any gains or losses after the debate. republicans in colorado are hoping gardner will win the seat over udall. joni ernst is leading bruce braley. in georgia, democrats are hoping to gain a seat if michelle nun

can defeat david perdue. but the winning candidate has to get 50% of the vote plus one or else there's a runoff. >> the runoff is january 6th, three days after congress is supposed to reconvene. just imagine if the senate control depends on that one seat. >> finally kansas where independent greg orman has a 0.8 lead over pat roberts. orman has indicated if he wins he likely would caucus with whichever party has the majority in the senate. arthel? >> molly, thank you. the senate they say may go republican and the gop could pick up a few more seats in the house. but most races seem to be already a done deal. why is that? the cook political report points out that of 435 house seats, 228 are solid or leaning republican. 185 are solid are leaning democratic. 22 races are now considered

toss-ups. that, only about 5% of all the congressional contests. swing districts have been dramatically cut in the last decade. what does that mean for us and our democratic process? dan shea is a professor of government at colby college. he joins us now that waterville, maine. you go in and vote, think you're doing your part, but a lot of thee these districts are gerrymandered to go one way or the other. >> yeah. in bill clinton's second midterm election, about 150 races were decided within ten percentage points. the winner got less than 55%. ten days from now, we expect that number to be about 70. there are a few, a couple of dozen tight races. but even if we extend it up to 55%, there's going to be very, very few. so, yeah, it's a change and it's something to be worried about. your question about redistricting, i have to honest with you.

a lot of political scientists don't think that redistricting is the cause of that. if redistricting was the cause, we'd see that bump right after the new lines in the 2002, the 2012 elections. that's not what we're seeing. political scientists are looking towards a different explanation and actually not redistricting as part of that problem. >> and what do you see the result of that? seems many districts are either one way or the other. >> yes. no doubt about it. something is really happening. two things, and they're relating. there's a hardening of partis partisanship, a purification of the party ranks. republicans are conservative and democrats are liberals. and the difference between those parties is as wide as we've seen in decades. and there's another explanation related that political scientists are starting to talking about. it's called sorting or geopolitical sorting. it's when people move to

ideological or to communities that are ideologically in sync with their positions, their point of view. so conservatives are moving to conservative states and regions and counties and neighborhoods. and liberals are doing the same thing. so we're seeing the ho m of this -- >> some legislatures, in new york, 97% of the incumbents were reelected in 2012. finally, dan, what does this mean as we go forward and as we have this metal ten days from now at the midterms as we face a new presidential election in 2016? >> well, one thing's for sure. ideologically pure districts are going to send members to congress that they want them to toe the line. i'm not sure we'll see a lot of

compromise springing from this election this time around at the very least. >> so it seems the status quo in some places may be the status quo. dan shea, thank you for joining us today. >> thank you, eric. this weekend, we have a new election special focusing on the colorado senate race. and it touches on a concern for everyone. the path to the american dream. >> all of the other people that are trying to make a better life for themselves coming from other countries are entitled to an american dream. it's not just a dream for america. it's a dream for the world. >> i think that they should specify who could come in and pay taxes like everybody dels. >> the aguilars are trying to expand their business. so they want a candidate who will work to make that possible. >> fox news reporting "american dream on the ballot." that's anchored by bret baier. airs tomorrow at 10:00 p.m. eastern time right here on the fox news channel. and the vice president of a huge company going for a wild

be considered a serious escalation of fighting in the region. let's bring in now captain chuck nash, a retired navy captain and fox news military analyst. this new report is about chlorine gas, talk to me first about chlorine gas. what's behind isis using chlorine bombs? >> we tend to think of chlorine has something to purify water. they probably took over a water treatment facility in baghdad and then used drums of it or tanks of it locally to see if they could use it as a weapon. now, it's not weaponized. in world war i chlorine was used because of the trench warfare. and once you get chlorine, which is heavier than air, it settles along the ground. so in iraq where the real danger

is going to be is probably not with them using this as a routine way because it's too much trouble and it's kind of dangerous for the people using it as well -- >> because the gas can blow back to the bomb throwers themselves, right? >> exactly. it can double back on you, in which case you're going to be in trouble. but where it's really insidious is we're getting into winter now. temperatures are cooling off. and if you're up on the high ground and you unleash that out of those cylinders and that rolls, that heavier-than-air gas rolls down into a valley, you could kill everybody down there in an area whereas in the summertime, when you have all the heat rising, it tends to dissipate. >> i think you say that isis uses this as just another fear factor as well. >> sure. yeah. just to intimidate people that they're coming. they're already waving the black flags and brandishing their

knives and putting heads on stakes and all of that stuff. this is just one more arrow in their terrorist arsenal to try to inject fear into the people that they're trying to take over. >> yeah. a word from secretary kerry is that if it's true that isis is using chemical weapons, this would underscore the importance of the work that he says that we are currently engaged in and thus the need to defeat isis and it should change u.s. strategy in iraq or syria. now, captain nash, when juxtaposed with action, military force, do those warnings seem like empty threats or would this really be a game changer? >> i don't see how it's going to be a game changer just because we want it to be. you're going to have to change the situation on the ground. without a dedicated and supported ground force supported from the air, you're not going to be able to roll these people up. we can say, we can talk, we can brandish strong statements in

the united nations and all that. but until you stick a ground force in there to go head to head with these people and then pound them from the air, you're not going to do anything more than talk. and we're pounding them from the air. we're just not being as effective as we could be if we had a counter ground force to force them to densify is we could really hit them. >> you're saying that ground force is a tool that remains unused, what's currently working in this war against isis? >> the intelligence that we're getting is working. we're able to go and with regularity hit a lot of these tactical fighting positions. so we're getting that and that's good because evidently these people are out in the open. once you start seeing the bomb plumes going off and the smoke rising inside cities like kobani, that tells you that somebody's in there with eyes on the target because we would not be indiscriminately bombing inside of a city when you have friendly fighters in there, meaning the kurds. so they're in close contact.

it's block-to-block fighting. but somebody is telling our folks and our arab coalition partners, giving them latitude, longitude, coordinates, gps coordinates. and they're putting bombs on target inside kobani. >> captain chuck nash, thank you very much. >> my pleasure. >> i want to remind our viewers there's plenty more on the fight against isis tomorrow morning when david vitter joins maria. learning more about the death of a u.s. marine who died two days ago in baghdad in what's being called a noncombat incident in the campaign against the islamic state. he's identified as 19-year-old lance corporal shawn neal. officials aren't providing any details on how he died or what happened. but this is now the second american casualty of this campaign. the first happened a few weeks

ago when the navy says a marine ended up ejecting from an aircraft over the persian gulf. officials presuming that that officer was lost at sea. winter is fast approaching. might be is good idea to try to upgrade your thermostat. if you're looking to save money on your energy bills, there are a lot of brands on the market. coming up, consumer reports will be here to show us some of the best products to keep us warm.
