10:02 am
different. and last time she went big as the candidate and ran as the front runner and this time because she is clearly the front runner in the democratic race, she can afford to run as a humble road tripper. if you doning that was not polled and thought about for days, i have a bridge i can sell you. it was a self conscious effort by the clinton campaign it have her on the rod trip and chipolte. and surveillance to theage to show. but in the end, it doesn't make a difference, it will be her ideas and policies that matter and does she have good ideas where to take the count row and middle class or doesn't she and how she got to iowa doesn't matter in the slightest. >> there is plaudists but not

10:07 am
hurts middle-class americans on income that is taxed is not true. much of the income has never been taxed. repoling the estate tax in full would result in a massive tax cut for the wealthiest of the wealthy>> reporter: the house passed it. and we'll so how it does in the senate. the tax is not popular with the public jenna. >> mike thank you. >> authorities in ohio arrested a man that trained with isis. sheik mohammed travelled to syria and joined an isis training camp. he was told by a cleric to return home and carry out an act

10:16 am
space that is abandoned by government troops and that's what is happening in the story. al-qaeda in the araban peninsula is regarded by u.s. officials as one of the major terrorist threats to the united states. it was responsible for the under wear bomber and in part for the recent attacks in paris. it is a dangerous group. you don't want to see them get more resources or territory and concerning, we have had to pull back our own troops that are in yemen. and it makes it hard to push back on the terrorist organization. >> they called it a retreat and saying we retreated from yemen. he can't look at it any other way. what do we do now michael. what is our next step? >> i think you will so something you reportedly seen for the last few days.

10:18 am
they exploited before. >> they have had a number of civil wars and external actors like egypt and saudi arabia have been players before. egypt had 70000v: troops that was sent to yemen. and saudi arabia was actually on the other side. that's when the leader of yemen was a lined to with the soviet young. and now egypt and america is on the same side. and you have iowa ran helping the rebels. and in 2009. you had a border war between them. and there is this history and it would not be unprecedented to so arab troops moving in yemen. >> what is our calculation? we are allies of saudi and egypt
10:19 am
and we lend supplies when we don't so that action in iraq and syria? how do we support them? >> what you will so is more of the same from the united states. we'll support the arab allies in terms of arms and so forth. but there is a concern in the pentagon and washington about whether or not they can achieve the goals and the level of civilian casulties. yemen is a place that is in dire straits. i think you will see conferrings about coping the goals realistic and accomplish them effectively. >> it is a scary thought to hear al-qaeda taking control of the key area and coastal city. and isis taking control of a strips in libya and what is next in the region. michael, it is always good to
