an hour. have it your loving it. i don't think so. have a great weekend, everybody. it's a crowded field if the declared hopefuls in new hampshire. at this hour for a high-profile meet and greet with voters at the republican first in the nation leadership. there's a lot at stake. we'll give you a roundup. how these candidates are trying to make an impact with voters. you will also hear from former arkansas governor mike huckabee who is just weeks away from letting us know whether he's in it to win it. >> highway inferno. a california gas pipeline explosion injures nearly a dozen people. leaving three in critical condition. imagine seeing that driving down the highway. what might have caused the blast. now many of us live right next to a gas pipeline without even knowing it.

>> and prosecutors are saying this naturalized american citizen wanted to kill americans. particularly targeting anyone in uniform. what we're now learning about this suspect. and why there are growing fears. being described the new wave of homegrown terrorists. hello, everybody, thank you for spending your saturday with us. i'm uma pemmaraju. >> nice to be with you. another weekend another crowded cattle call for the ever growing ranks of republicans who want to be the next president of the united states. today, some 20 hopefuls are gathering in new hampshire for a chance to do campaigning in the first of the nation primary. and kiss the proverbial ring of

the party brokers and activists. fox news chief political correspondent carl cameron is in new hampshire. >> reporter: the new hampshire primary's about 100 years old. and there are 21 candidates who are going to take the stage here in nashville, new hampshire, over the course of this weekend yesterday and today. 21 is by far and away the biggest in modern memory. it's unclear if there have ever been that many potential candidates and some are the lesser knowns and probably won't fare well when things happen in the first primary. most of the republican candidates have been focusing their attention on hillary clinton. it's a little early for them to be battling with one another. the ones who have been caught most, hillary clinton catching most of the elbows from the republicans with a variety of attacks. some of them quit funny. earlier this morning we listened to kentucky senator rand paul who had his version of a slap at the former first lady, former secretary former senator, and now candidate for president. listen.

>> starting to worry that when hillary clinton travels there's going to need to be two planes. one for her and her entourage, one for her baggage. >> he then went on a long list of things, ranging from benghazi to scandals and controversies going back to her husband's presidency. marco rubio, the third candidate into the race also took a humorous approach again, to hillary clinton. watch. >> scott brown tonight let me know that hillary clinton's going to raise $2.5 billion. which that's a lot of chipotle my friend. >> there's a very real contrast to the hillary clinton campaign such as it is with her unavailability to the press trying to talk specifically to voters directly keep it low key in the media. the 21-some-odd republican candidates, would be presidents here, want very much all the attention they can get.

after they make their speeches, they're taking questions from the audience and some have been pretty tough. rand paul has heard questions about his lib terrorism. jeb bush asked straight out whether he was going to be a rino, republican in name only. >> we know hillary clinton's heading your way in new hampshire the next couple of days. where are we on numbers, carl? we've got 21 potentials. only a couple who have formally thrown their hat in the race. >> the timing will be conflicts and potential train wrecks as they try to get on the rails. we have three official candidates at this point. ted cruz went first. rand paul went second. marco rubio are the three declared candidates. last night, coming up in may, he will make his formal announcement in his hometown of hope, arkansas. also the hometown of former president bill clinton. and that will be on the 5th of may. on the 4th of may, dr. ben

carson will announce his presidential candidacy. so that will be a pretty busy couple of days. and carly fiorina was looking at announcing her candidacy on may 5th. that's the day her book is coming out. but miss fiorina has not set a date and will look for more open real estate rather than compete with both the two candidates now angling for those seats. >> you will be a busy man as well as are they. we'll check back with you carl, thank you, sir. you heard carl talk about former arkansas governor huckabee. he is in new hampshire ahead of his announcement for may 5th about his presidential plans. he will also join us live in just a few minutes. we want to hear from you about the 2016 race. as carl pointed out, it has one of the most crowded republican fields in modern memory. so will that keep one candidate from standing out or do you think having so many candidates to choose from is actually a good thing for the party? you can send us your tweets to

toto to @lelandvittert or or @umapemmaraju or at anhqdc. >> a natural gas pipeline explodes in fresno. flames shooting 100 feet into the air. injuring at least 11 people and shut down a major highway for hours. all of this sparked by a construction accident at a fresno county sheriff's gun range. he has been following latest developments and he joins us now. will, what are you learning? >> reporter: witnesses say this was a very calm afternoon in northwest fresno when all of a sudden they saw that fireball shoot up into the sky. they say it sounded like a bomb went off. they say that flames were going up more than 100 feet. one witness says it sounded like a jet had buzzed the highway. a public works employee was on a

backhoe when he hit a 12-inch gas line. the blast destroyed the backhoe and blew the employee into the air. somehow, he was able to walk but had serious burns and is now in critical condition. we've also learned that in inmate crew was working nearby on the property. ten of those inmates had to be taken to nearby hospitals. witnesses say they could see the flames for miles. cars were covered in ash. a driver on the highway said he had his windows up and his air conditioning on but it still felt like a furnace inside. the nearby youth baseball game had to be cancelled because ash was falling. the authorities are investigating exactly what the public workings employee was doing and why he hit the gas line. now, if there is a silver lining here it's that nobody was killed. this was a peace officer's shooting range. so several deputies were there. evidently, they raced over performed cpr on some of the people who were injured. we're told that potentially saved several lives. uma. >> all right, will, thank you so

much for bringing us up to date. a very disturbing story out there. >> you bet. >> the fbi and others will tell you the threat of an american trained by isis in syria coming back to attack in the united states is the nightmare. but for some very good police work, that could have happened in ohio. >> the u.s. has charged an american with going abroad joining isis and coming back with orders to kill. here he is in court. we were lucky this time. but what about in the future. former cia covert operations officer mike baker joins us now to discuss. mike, are we going to keep getting lucky or is one of these guys going to be able to pull off an attack? >> well the problem with the world of counterterrorism is that you never really reduce the risk down to zero. it's a human chain of events. so the idea that you reduce the risk and everything is caught is

naive. so at some point, anybody working in the world of intelligence, counterterrorism, military, they understand that. but, the good news is on a couple of fronts, we're getting better. one front is the surveillance the intel operations, the monitoring of social media. but that will not alone by itself stop this problem. the other part of that process is also improving but -- has got a long ways to go. that is sort of the self-reporting. by that i mean we need to improve our ability to reach out to the communities here in the u.s. to get parents or family members or friends or acquaintances or co-workers to come forward when they see somebody who appears to be showing indications of radicalization. we need to be able to work with them to get them to understand it's important to come forward, but that's a very heavy lift. >> that's one of the things that's happened though in the past.

especially as it relates to some of the home grown people. there were a number of australian teens who were arrested. five of them in a counterterrorist operation. they were inspired by isis as well. you have these folks who are aspirational. a lot of the folks who have been arrested here in the united states. they watch movies. they do this, that end at other kind of thing. they talk to an informant about jihad. then you have guys who are operational like the person who was just arrested. says he wanted to have planned attacks on the u.s. military. had trained with isis. is there a significantly larger danger that those people pose? >> well, certainly. anybody who successfully traveled over to the region, received training has further, you know, gone through the radicalization process and then they come back, yes, of course. because they're further down the road. they're more prepared. they're not just the individual who's been reading some sermons online and, you know it's feeling like well maybe it sounds exciting and adventurous and i should do something. now you're talking about people who have actually traveled.

>> i've only got about 60 seconds left. but as we've heard over the past couple of weeks isis has been making a lot of gains on the battlefield in iraq, they've retaken a couple of cities on the verge of taking some other cities now. link for me how significant the fight overseas is, in terms of taking on isis in their home turf, is to protecting the homeland. i think there's a lot of people who see a disconnect and say, so what if they hold three more iraqi towns? >> it's a fallacy to think somehow we're going to defeat this problem without taking that territory away. the reason why isis has experienced so much success in the recruitment of westerners is because they have the physical manifestation of the calcaliphate. they've got all this territory they've dreamed of for years. now it's spurring this ability to go out and recruit westerners. if we don't do that, if withe don't

take that territory away we're never going to get ahead of that problem. it's not going to be good enough to cajole our regional allyies into doing this. >> the iraqiings haveeyeiraqis have not offered an inspiring wave of successes for us. thank you, sir. overseas now, news of other isis-inspired terror plots with now five teens under arrest for plotting a terror attack in australia. authorities are saying the 18-year-old and 19-year-old were planning to target police officers at a veterans day parade in melbourne. later this month. police are saying the teens were going to use what officers are describing as edged weapons. victoria state official saying the plot was not based on religious beliefs. >> these individuals don't represent any culture. this is not an issue of how you

pray or where you were born. this is not about those issues. this is simply evil. plain and simple. this is frightening. >> authorities are adding that those teens were on the official radar for months. the investigation was ramped up when it was clear they were planning a specific attack. >> the afghan president says the islamic state is now responsible for a suicide bombing in afghanistan. his country. at least 35 people were kied when a bomber on a motorcycle targeted a crowd of soldiers and civilians. you can see there gathered outside a bank in the eastern city of jalal la bad. at least 125 others were wounded in this attack. disenchanted extremists from the taliban and other organizations have recently been declaring their support for the islamic state. >> i think that goal of having

in reserve the possibility of putting back and applying force forceful sanctions in the event of a violation, that goal can be met. and it will require some creative negotiations by john kerry and others. and i'm confident it will be successful. >> president obama now leaving the door open to iran's demand for the immediate lifting of sanctions with what he's calling creative knee gosh inegotiations. despite the fact the nuclear deal calls for sanctions to be lifted over time. those remarks coming yesterday from a white house news conference and its raising red flags for critics who say the president is moving the goal post again over the contentious issue of sanctions. this, along with news this week that russia is lifting its ban on the sale of air defense missile systems to iran. now prompting even more concerns for israel. and joining us now, israeli

intelligence minister. welcome, sir, great to have you on our program today. >> pleasure. >> first off, let me get your reaction to president obama's remarks that there may be a way to deal with the issue of lifting sanctions sooner using what he is calling creative negotiations. >> well, i think they're very creative in the negotiations so far. but you mention eded missile between iran, between russia and iran. i think it's fundamentally wrong to eppower terrorist supporters like iran. iran is number one country in the world in sponsoring or support of terrorist groups. iran cannot become, should not become, epmpowered by any deal, by any arm sales.

if there is a framework agreement then iran will become a threshold nuclear state extremely close to nuclear weapons. and this will have very dangerous. second, if iran can become a threshold nuclear state and this is maybe created, i don't know, that many sunni arab countries will become threshold nuclear states and this will be a fatal blow to efforts worldwide. so the lusanne framework agreement will need dramatically changed. >> let me back up to the sale the air defense missile system to iran. is it your concern at this point

that this would bolster iran's military as a strategic tool against any air attack, making it very difficult if israel were to launch an attack? up to now russia has held back any sales due to pressure to the west. why do you believe russia moves so quickly on this? >> i don't know. i think as i mentioned before, as i said before it's morally wrong to sell such sophisticate weapons to country like iran that supports terrorism. this is the most powerful regime in the entire world. you shouldn't empower them by a deal on the nuclear issue and not by the sale of advanced missile. >> are you concerned iran could transfer this weapons system to

syria or hezbollah which would make it difficult for the israeli air force to wage air strikes over syria or lebanon if terrorists strike your country. >> this is a possibility. iran was delivering many kind of sophisticated weapons to groups like hezbollah in the past and also to syria. so this is a possibility for yemen which is now in the state of destabilizing and occupying yemen in the straits. this is a military affect. the very fact that iran which is more aggressive than ever in the middle east. two years ago, we changed it then. so iran was changed but for the worst. iran is becoming more aggressive and more openly supportive of terrorism than under ahmadinejad

than ever. so anything that might empower iran with a threshold nuclear. we're lifting the sanctions at this very moment. iran is trying to destabilize half of the middle east and take control of many arab countries inluding yemen. everything like that is a threat to israel, to the middle east and to global securities. therefore, we believe that the world, united states, should insist on a more reasonable deal. a deal that can be trusted. and not a deal very much like the deal that can be violated few years later and help iran to become not a threshold nuclear state but a nuclear state like what happened with -- and again, don't forget the issue of --

>> yes, sir. >> if iran can be a legitimate threshold nuclear state many countries, many sunni arab countries will demand. the end result might be the agreement that's intended to prevent the nuclear armament of one. >> the stakes remain quite high. i know that obviously there is a great deal of concern within your government and it's something we're all watching. thank you so much for joining us today with your insights. much appreciated. >> and there's a lot more to come on america's news headquarters. we're going live back to new hampshire. you can see some of the speakers are getting ready. one of them is mike huckhuckabee. he is going to join us to talk about his plans for the white house. plus, a texas sized storm batters america's fourth largest city. we're going to tell you where

this giant is headed next. live, from the fox extreme weather center. plus, new and disturbing details emerge this week at a house hearing on the dea sex scandal. so did heads roll over allegations that agents had sex parties paid for by drug cartels? unbelievably, not one. >> do you have any idea how absurd all of that sounds to an ordinary human being? >> i can see someone not knowing the civil servants system and not understanding our system would think that.

welcome back, everybody. as we've been reporting, new hampshire in the spotlight this weekend. as gop hopefuls hit hard on why they believe they have what it takes to convince voters they can make a difference. joining us now, let's bring in former arkansas governor mike huckabee who's gearing up for a big announcement on may 5th in his home state of arkansas. governor welcome, great to have you here with us. >> it's a pleasure to be back, thank you. >> i know you plan to let us know. should we assume on may 5th, you are going to simply make it official?

>> i don't want to assume anything that can be dangerous. people that want to come and get ticket, they can go to mikehuckabee.com website and they'll have a great time. i'll leave it at that. >> hopefully we'll get to hear more news about what your future plans are. you and i talked about this before. it will come down to whether you believe if you can launch a campaign that comes from the heart. i know you believe voters are really hungering for leadership. >> i think they're hungry for leadership and authenticity. somebody who really believes something. willing to stand by it. a lot of people will vote for someone they don't agree with but they're going to be hard pressed to vote for someone who don't even agree with himself. who has not convinces but just convenient political position.

we've seen what that does, where people don't have a principle of what makes them tick and what makes the country tick. leadership is about being a thermostat, not a thermometer. a thermostat adjusts the temperature, it doesn't just reflect it and read it based on what the polls are. >> on the issue of authenticity, this is something that is very important in the minds of so many. because right now, there's a great deal of apathy in the public towards politicians and the messages they're bringing to the table right now. >> and there should be. even after republicans got elected to congress i went out all over the country. so we can get the republican majority in the senate, our numbers in the house. i fully expected, at least the one thing we could count on them to do was to challenge president obama's unlawful and understand constitutional actions of executive order regarding immigration.

if he wants to pass something, you don't ignore a branch of government and act unilaterally. this congress has so far failed to do its legal constitutional check and balance duty. of saying to the president you just can't do things with your phone. >> back in 2008 you won the iowa caucuses but came in third in new hampshire. what will set your campaign apart, should you decide to get into it and give you the sense your message will be connecting with voters in the granite state? >> well there are 93 million americans who are out of work. we have a lot of people who have jobs. a few years ago they had a good full-time job with benefits. today, they have two part-time jobs, no benefits. and i think they're looking for someone in the republican party who not only speaks to them but speaks for them. one of the hopes i have is we

can really put a focus on how do we revive that worker who wants to relive the american dream but can't as long as the government keeps its boot on the net being of people who are working and on the necks of people who will perhaps create a job for them if this weren't so encumbered with all kinds of tax burdens. >> there are concerns with such a crowded field of contenders that the attacks won't just be against the likely democratic nominee hillary clinton that we may soon see the gop candidates attacking each other in an effort to set one another apart. isn't that risky? >> it's not just risky, it's stupid. everybody who is thinking about running for president wants to quarterback the team. the best way to be the quarterback and earn the job is to prove october fieldn the feelield you're a better quarterback.

i'd like to think that we're going to grow beyond that this time. act intelligentally. act like grown-ups. act like leaders. how we're going to solve them, whether than just to attack republicans. >> the nuclear deal being considered right now by the united states. we just heard from the minister about his concerns. about the efforts of the white house to come up with negotiations, lifting sarngss immediately. how do you feel about this? >> here's the negotiation i think we should engage in.

guarantee that israel has a right to exist. quit chanting death to america in the streets. if you do those two things, we'll at least sit down and visit with you. until then, we're going to put the most stringent economic sanctions we can possibly come up with on you. we're going to bankrupt you. we're going to make you wish that you were acting honorably. interfering in places like yemen and libya. because you're doing only that which brings civilization down. do that and we'll talk. otherwise expect the worst from us. that's what i would tell him in a negotiation. >> governor huckabee. we're so glad to have you on board today. we're all awaiting the announcement. we're standing by to hear what your decision is and we wish you all the best. thank you. >> thank you uma thank you. >> great to see you. >> still ahead, more details in

welcome back, everybody. it's been nearly six months since president obama lynch for attorney general. now scolding the senate for its failure to move the nomination forward. now the details on the holdup. >> reporter: president obama making an emotional plea to senators asking for the confirmation of attorney general nominee loretta lynch. >> there are times where the dysfunction in the senate just goes too far. this is an example of it. it's gone too far.

enough. enough. call for a vote. get her confirmed. let her do her job. this is embarrassing. >> for months, after her judiciary committee hear it's become a bargaining chip for an unrelated issue. majority leader mcconnell said it's on the docket after a vote on an anti-human trafficking bill, a bill stalled by democrats who oppose anti-abortion language in the legislation. some republicans such as white house hopeful jeb bush say it's time to move on. >> i know that she's being held up for a couple reasons. one of which is statements she's made that attack the second amendment. attack gun rights. which i totally disagree with. and there's the other issue with some. the hang-up on the bill that's in front of the senate right now. i hope that the longer it takes to confirm her, the longer eric

holder stays as attorney general. look at it that way. >> a number of senate republicans do oppose her nomination, whether it be over supporting the president's stance on immigration or civil asset forfeiture a law which allows police to seize money and property from criminal suspects under certain circumstances. >> loretta lynch as u.s. attorney in manhattan confiscated over $100 million worth of people's stuff. with no conviction. this shouldn't happen in america. i'm part of a movement and part of a bill that says we will reverse and turn justice back the way it should be. that in our country, you should be presumed innocent until found guilty. >> if confirmed, lynch would be the first black woman to serve as the nation's top law officer. uma, back to you. >> all right, elizabeth, thank you. based on testimony we have read from the dea administrator, she says she doesn't have the power to simply fire these

people. i don't buy it. the american public doesn't buy it. and for the thousands of men and women who serve honorably they're patriotic, they work hard they put their lives on the line. >> the outrage continues on capitol hill. over the ever evolving dea sex scandal. and news that many of the agents involved haven't been fired. started with agents frequenting prostitutes. has gotten worse from there. cover-ups. supervisors frequenting prostitutes. even sex parties, paid for by the drug cartels they were supposed to be taking down. susan crabtree, white house correspondent for the washington examiner, has broken many of the biggest headlines on this story. joins us now. the administrator of the dea got absolutely skewered on capitol hill. you think it was fair? >> i think it was fair. she kept saying she couldn't fire these people. and i really believe that that's a copout. i've talked to attorneys who say

there needs to be due process but does it need to be years of due process? she found out in 2012 when the secret service scandal and the dea agents involved in that scandal broke. she found out about this. she could have revisited it. it certainly doesn't take three years for her to go after these guys. >> is this a cultural issue with the tecting the old boys club and men will be men? or is this a few rogue agents? >> i think you're hitting on something. that's exactly right. the sources i talked to said this is widespread in terms of the caribbean and places where it's illegal. that it's a male dominated culture and they're not getting back to washington when these things happen and supervisors are involved as well. >> one of the things that struck me if you are running a large corporation thousands of employees and you heard a couple of guys at some outpost somewhere were involved in this

behavior. you fire them. you may try to have them prosecuted. you could sue them civilly because of bribery be an all sorts of malfeasance. what possibly protects these dea agents? what is the mechanism? >> well as the administrator said and other people said, they're saying these civil service protections are imposed on them and it ties their hands. i've talked to attorneys and they say that's not exactly correct. >> is there anything congress can do about this? >> congress can step in. the fbi and other agents like the cia are exempted for some of these civil service protections because they want discipline in their ranks. congress has made that exception. they can do that. when i talked to members, they say actually we just want to impose the rules that already exist. >> well, it seems like also at some level the dea agents know they're not subject to those exemptions. they know they have protections where the cia agents know they are subject to a very different

set of rules. >> it's interesting if you look at alcohol rules at the fbi, there are higher standards. if you talk to anybody right after inch9/11, the fbi got serious about the discipline program and cleaned up their act. in comparison you have the secret service and the dea now just really, really not measuring up. >> i know you have a couple of articles coming up. we won't ask you to break them just now. but we'll be reading the washington examiner and checking out what you have broken coming up. coming up those were the days. we will show you images from those private moments inside 1600 pennsylvania avenue. and the first families from the kennedys to the obamas. a new book details life inside their private worlds through eyes of the loyal staff who have served them.

welcome back. harry s. truman called it this great while jail. michelle obama says it's really a nice prison. they're both talking about the white house. so, what goes on behind that impressive facade? there's a new book out that gives us an inside look. the residence inside the private world of the white house details the joy, the drama and the extraordinary along with the

ordinary behind the walls of the white house. kate anderson brower is the author of "the residence" and she joins us now. this is a fascinating, amazing book. i really loved it because you are really chronicling history with people who are actually living testaments to history because of who they have served over the years and we're talking about the staff that serves the white house the first families. >> i interviewed more than 100 people for the book and it took more than two years to report it out and these people take the unofficial oath of discretion. they do not ever talk out of school. what happens in the white house stays in the white house and they take it very seriously and that loyalty is really returned. laura bush went to one of the butler's funerals last year and gave hiss u eulogy. >> you said many of the people you wanted to speak with were res reticent to speak to you because they did not want to be

disloyal. >> it took a long time for them to trust me. some of the stories they told about hillary clinton and how difficult it was during the lewinsky scandal they said, you know, they could understand the stress, you know, one storeroom manager told me everyone was staring at her and she could feel that they were staring at her and, of course, she was quick to snap. >> these people have a window on history. you detailed stories that go all the way back to the kennedys the johnsons, very poignant story, for example, of the door man for mrs. kennedy who waited up all night to see her on that fateful day when her husband was shot and she returned to the white house with her blood-stained suit but he wante he was there for you. >> the doorman preston bruce he slept in the third floor in a small bedroom. would not lay down. took off his jacket, would not take off his suit. stayed there for four days after the assassination and wouldn't go home to his wife and he wanted to be there for her, and

jackie kennedy came home from dallas and said you waited for me thank you. and jackie kennedy gave him the tie that jfk wore on the flight to dallas and he even walked in his funeral, went to his funeral, was standing there next to charles de gaulle and the huge world leaders. he never even graduated from high school. >> he was there as a loyal member of the family. also lighter moments, of course, we see images, photographs of people like nixon bowling with staff members there. and i think we have some of the images up on the screen there if we can put them up. you see the president, you know, at ease in moments where we wouldn't expect to see him. >> yeah, i love that story because it was tough in a staff to watch president nixon in particular it was even harder than jfk's assassination because he was decaying day by day and there was nothing they could do to help him. but he was bowling with the kitchen worker and he wandered into the kitchen late at night and said do you want to bowl and they bowled until 2:00 a.m. and he said my wife will never

believe i was bowling with you this late. and he took him into the oval office and wrote a letter explaining to his wife that they were out. they had fun together and they loved these people. tricia nixon told me that these people knew his father and loved him and they didn't care about the poll six that were surrounding him leaving the white house. >> that's right. that's really intimate. they share so much of their lives that they become part of the family in a way that we could never understand because there's that loyalty factor. and really quickly, many of the people that you tried to interview have already passed. >> yeah. it's very sad. in the last two years six of them have passed away and their children i just got a great letter from one of the butlers' children saying thank you for honoring my father. >> great book. thank you for joining us today. we'll take a break and be back right after this.

thanks for staying with us on this beautiful saturday. welcome to hour number two of america's news headquarters live from washington. >> and here's what's making news right now. she's been the ceo for corporate giant hewlett-packard. but is she ready to jump into a crowded field of presidential hopefuls? carly car you'll hear whether he plans to throw her hat into the presidential race of 2016. the islamic state claims

responsibility for an attack next to the heavily fortified u.s. consulate in erbil iraq. a fragile sense of security there. we'll have a live report. plus, all of us, parents, teens have said to our own children, what were you thinking? turns out there is a biological reason why their thoughts can be completely different. we'll talk to a neuroscientist about understanding the teenage brain. for the first time the islamic state attacked the u.s. compound in erbil, iraq, shattering a fragile sense of security there in the kurdish capital. the car bomb explosion killed three people, wounded five. doctors desperately worked into the night to treat the victims. the attack comes as isis fighters continue to seize the offensive momentum across iraq that comes despite u.s.-led air strikes. john huddy has more from our mideast bureau where it's

already late saturday night. john? >> reporter: yeah, you were just talking about erbil, the capital of kurdistan, it's largely been insulated from the fighting in northern iraq in a region that remains largely controlled by isis militants including just to the west mosul so, yeah, it shattered that fragility there and the last attack was a car bomb attack in november that killed i believe five people. the u.s. state department by the way says that none of its personnel were injured in that attack, in the car bomb explosion in erbil that all are accounted for. but as you mentioned, three people were killed. five others injured when the car bomb went off outside a u.s. consulate. and isis as we know has taken responsibility for that attack. elsewhere, let me bring you up to speed. another car bomb exploded in baghdad killing 30 people and wounding an estimated 150 others. it went off in a busy market yesterday afternoon, and you can

see the absolute devastation there. all this as the humanitarian crisis continues in ramadi. we've been talking about this throughout the week. ramadi to the south of erbil. now, about 4200 families -- and that represents thousands of people in all -- have been trying to escape the city as isis militants are trying to take over on the outskirts at this point controlling some of the villages. to give some perspective of the area that we're talking about, ramadi is located in the anbar province. still, isis has a foothold there west of baghdad. it's part of what some are calling the bloody triangle. the reason, you have baghdad. you have ramadi to the west. and then to the north tikrit where there's been a lot of battles going on there. iraqi forces pushing isis militants out and also shia militia fighters backed by iran. and above tikrit where rarkiraq's

largest oil reserve is located. general martin dempsey said it's a, quote-unquote, strategic target because of the oil reserve and its location en route to mosul, again, to the north still controlled by isis and there have been at this point 200 u.s.-led coalition air strikes against isis. general dempsey says the fight for ramadi is not necessarily symbolic but one u.s. military official said that the fact that people are trying to escape the city, that they're leaving everything behind, that they're packing up what they can and leaving their homes shows how those people feel about isis in that region the brutality of those isis militants and also living under isis control. >> and to that point a quote from a policeman said he was taking his family to baghdad and heading back to fight isis. said he was taking his family

away because he didn't want to be beheaded in front of them in isis caught him. thanks thanks, john. the fighting in the middle east has forced millions from their home, minority groups are fleeing feared persecution from isis. for example, more than 140,000 christians have left their homes since last year and for many in an already desperate situation it's getting even worse as they realize they may never be able to go home again. joining us right now kristen wright who works with open doors usa. she has just come back from iraq working with refugees there and i know you have been following the story very closely through the work that you have been doing. and you're just back. what you have seen in a situation where people really feel a sense of complete helplessny the yazidzy community, some living in tents but a great many living on the streets because you say they don't want to be forgotten. >> yes.

exactly. i did just return from erbil iraq, where i met with a number of persecuted christians and, of course, these minority groups are suffering in tremendous ways. i visited a shopping mall where more than 150 christian families are now taking shelters. so the mall is basically one part refugee camp and a lot of the familiesed is they don't know where to go next. and the hardest part is living in limbo and not knowing what the next move is. >> when you say living in limbo what is done to address the situation some temporary housing like we see there is being built to deal with some of the families who have been displaced, but seriously, though, when you see any type of coordination, is it really making any headway, any difference, to try to give some semblance of normalcy to these people? >> i think, you know, that organizations like open doors, for instance, and our partners on the ground are working to provide some sense of stability and some sense of home to people and so a lot of the christians i met with had been living in tents and now they're living in sort of containers.

very small trailers and they are child friendly spaces. designated supervised areas for children to play and just be children and that's been one of our core priorities at open doors is developing these spaces so kids can just be kids in the midst of what is going on and we're providing trauma counseling and basic food supply -- >> on that score, a year ago we were reporting on the desperate situation with thousands of christians fleeing isis who were out there destroying their homes or villages. the children particularly are feeling the brunt of the violence. >> yes. >> and witnessing seeing their parents murdered before their eyes, for example. >> yes. >> tell me about how, for example the children are coping and what you saw when you spoke with these kids. >> well there's a tremendous impact on the next generation and i think that's something we need to be very aware of. they've been through a lot and seen horrible things. the kids i met with and played and fortunately many are in a safe place and to receive the trauma counseling and the

crucial help that they need but there's definitely a very difficult scenario as far as education, a lot of kids can't get into the schools there it's entirely different from mosul versus where they are in erbil, so there's a challenge. a lot of kids are out of school and they are missing out on what could potentially become years. >> this is on the front pages and it's a desperate situation because we're talking about thousands of people, when you take a look at the stories of women and young girls kidnapped by isis sold as slaves or also sold to work in homes as sex slaves this is absolutely unimaginable and yet it's going on. >> it's really incomprehensible. you know, when i was there i met with an elderly woman who in tears came to me and complained that her husband had been left behind when she and her family fled from mosul. he had some kind of health problem and they were not able to take them with him. she was weeping as she described to me that she tried to call him on the phone and was able to successfully reach him for the

past several months and now she's unable to reach him. >> there are aid organizations who are trying to connect families who have been trying to track down their lost sisters, mothers daughters. >> exactly. this is a crucial effort that is under way all throughout iraq because a lot of families have been separated. >> basically you think it's getting worse in spite of the efforts that we're hearing about aid organizations in terms of the effort to try to contain the situation and try to get at this problem, you think it's getting worse, not better. >> in terms of the people that i spoke with there's a definite sense of helplessness and a sense that i think that a lot of people wonder if they've been forgotten by the international community in terms of what they've been through. that's one thing that all of us i think can do to help to help to provide aid, to help to provide practical support and help the people and realize that they are not really forgotten by the international community. >> it's a tragic story and one that continues and you and others will go back and forth to try to do your part to make a difference. thank you for sharing your story today. really appreciate it.

>> thank you. libya is having its own refugee crisis, thousands of illegal migrants are making their way from the country and hoping to reach europe by sea. hundreds of refugees from across africa and the middle east and asia are packed now into the hallways of a detention center in a northwestern port city. city officials there in libya say more needs to be done to stop the migrants from entering their country illegally. libya is the closest point to north africa from italy. back in this country and the presidential contest under way. the 2016 republican president been hopefuls are trying to stir up support in new hampshire today the first in the nation leadership summit continues in the granite state with no fewer than 20 -- yes 20 -- candidates lining up for the republicans.

escents svents like this are important for the candidates to set them apart from one another. we've got the very latest on all the activities taking place in the granite state, carl? >> reporter: hi there, uma. this is the very first, first in the nation summit. first in the nation referring to the granite state's lead-off primary which will take in early february of next year. they've never had a crowd this big at any kind of an event in new hampshire or for that matter in iowa or south carolina this early. 21 candidates. a lot of them are considered sort of fringe were. they are not likely to go very far and some won't make it but some are going to and this is part of the kickoff to it. we've already heard from the likes of jeb bush who yesterday was asked if he would be a rino, a republican in name only, who was concerned there would be a coronation on the democratic side and she didn't want one on

the republican side talking to jeb bush. today we'll hear from scott walker. we've already heard from rand paul the kentucky senator who announced his candidacy a week ago. he has a bit of a libertarian streak. talks about it a lot. very popular here in new hampshire where the motto is live free or die. and he talked to a -- a great deal today about his differences with fellow republicans in particular when it comes to foreign policy. watch. >> the other republicans will criticize the president and hillary clinton for their foreign policy but they would have just done the same thing just ten times over. every one of the ones that will criticize me wanted our troops on the ground in libya. i think it was a mistake to be in libya. it's a disaster. we should have never been there. >> reporter: some critics call rand paul an he said that's not true however, he has in recent weeks altered some of his positions.

he's proposed increases in defense spending and having been against foreign aid he's proposed extensions on it. he said it's not because he is changing his libertarian stripes he's always one that believes in america's security and a strong military but he thinks too often it's being used for political purposes and carly feariorni wowed the crowd with her criticisms of hillary clinton and she talked about having been asked on fox news whether or not hormones might make it difficult for a woman to be president and she turned around and said that's never been the case for a man a specific or perhaps oblique reference to bill clinton and hillary clinton. her attacks on hillary clinton have gotten a lot of attention in the republican party because she's a woman and she's a little tired of being identified only as that and she's trying to show

herself as a woman of accomplishment and she said hillary clinton who as secretary state and as a senator has no accomplishments. >> very interesting, and we have many more candidates to go who are going to jump in over the next few weeks and a couple months away, right? >> reporter: it's interesting uma, we have three announced candidates who are declared and on the campaign trail as such. ben carson who has an exploratory committee under way, still testing the waters. rick santorum has formed a, quote, testing the waters committee. there's a lot of candidates who now have registered with the government saying they are considering a candidacy. there are four -- three who are candidates, four if you count hillary clinton. and there are about a dozen out there who haven't made up their minds. the irony being that they are at least thinking about running for president and they are standing on a stage that refers to the first in the nation primary. being on it means they're supposed to be a candidate. some of them haven't filed yet,

this could prompt some glants from people that they are not right with the law. >> there you go. >> reporter: small thing but it could matter. >> all in the name of presidential politics. thank you so much, carl, always great to see you. >> reporter: thank you. hillary clinton is taking the weekend off from public events laying low before heading to new hampshire monday. for week two of her campaign that started with this -- >> and i'm running for president because i think that americans and their families need a champion and i want to be that champion. >> that was in iowa on toes. she arrived fueled bychy poultly and in the scobee fan. for a fair and balanced debate on how things fared during that week for the only official democratic candidate fox news political analysts. mark, simple question first week out, how did she do? >> i think she did very well.

hillary showed that she could talk to ordinary people go to chipotle and the gas station. that was her focus. jeb bush was senting up an anonymous plan. she did well. >> i want to stop you. most of the people she talked to were handpicked by the campaign. this wasn't her going into chipotle. >> it was her going into chipotle. it was an unplanned campaign stop. they did bring in iowa democratic activists to talk to her. they should. it is a caucus. anyone knows that's how you win a caucus. you get people active in democratic politics to get out and vote for you. she did talk to them and she was talking to other people, too. there were no democratic activists in that chipotle. >> it's funny she want those be a champion for regular families but she's being political, she release some of her policy issues that she's going to do and she also defended president

obama on health care and immigration reform. but yet she went to the right by saying there needs to be changes in the health care issue and she said that people should be able to compete across state lines. which is a republican ideal. also let's eliminate regulation for small businesses. that's a republican ideal. so my question is will the real hillary clinton stand up? >> mark, whether she stands up or not at some point she's going to have to start taking answers from reporters. she's going to have to be a little bit less handled than she has been, a little bit less insular. charleshammer said hit her marie antoinette tour. >> i couldn't hear angela on my microphone so i didn't hear what she had to say. but she is very good with policy. i mean, she took a briefing book on her vacation to the dominican

republic. i've been one-on-one with her discussing policy, this is a woman who really knows policy very well. and is not afraid to answer questions about it. >> all right, so angela i'll give you the last word here. we're one week in so far and so far hillary clinton is the only formally declared candidate. you think that works in the republicans' favor coming up here or are the republicans hoping that somebody else jumps? >> i think it works in the republicans' favor because she still has an albatross around her neck regarding benghazi. we need to on the republican side narrow it down and have great debates on the issues and not bash one anothers so the democrats can use it against us in a national election. >> angela mark, appreciate both of you guys. we'll work out the audio issues coming up. you did great. we want to know what you think. you've heard from angela and mark and other folks. what do you think? the 2016 race has one of the most crowded republican race in years, will that keep one candidate from standing out or

do you think having many candidates to choose from is good for the party? you can tweet your thoughts to us @anhqdc and we'll read some of your thoughts coming up here a little later in the show. don't go away. there's much more coming up. what was supposed to be a fun night at the circus ends up in terror. we'll show you what sent these parents and youngsters scrambling for cover. plus the tsa under fire for a growing scandal. the culprits caught and canned but will they actually face justice? that story after the break. numerous victims come forward so we're just asking if somebody believes that they were a victim of this incident to please call our nonemergency number and basically file a report. education for anyone anywhere. if you look at a khan academy video, they can cover everything from basic

arithmetic to calculus, trigonometry, finance. you can really just get what you need at your own pace. and so, bank of america came and reached out to us and said 'we are really interested in making sure that everyone really understands personal finance.' and we're like 'well, we're already doing that.' and so it was kind of a perfect match. okay, listen up! i'm re-workin' the menu. mayo? corn dogs? you are so outta here! aah! [ female announcer ] the complete balanced nutrition of great-tasting ensure. 24 vitamins and minerals antioxidants and 9 grams of protein. [ bottle ] ensure®. nutrition in charge™. scott: appears buster's been busy. man: yeah, scott. i was just about to use the uh... scott: that's a bunch of ground-up paper, lad! scotts ez seed uses the finest seed, fertilizer, and natural mulch that holds water so you can grow grass anywhere! seed your lawn. seed it!

wow. well, what was supposed to be a fun night under the big top turned into a terrifying experience for circusgoers in engleton, texas, last night. an audience member capturing the frantic scene as severe storms

rolled through the area and the tent began taking on water. parent and youngsters were scrambling for the exits when a section of the tent collapsed. circus organizers say more than 500 people attending that event. fortunately, though, no one was injured. the facts here aren't in dispute. at least ten times a male tsa worker groped passengers by manipulating one of the walk-through scanners that is supposed to detect objects under the clothes. here how it worked at denver international airport. when the screener saw someone he wanted to grope, he would motion to another worker in on the deal. she would tell the machine that it was a female walking through the device. the machine would detect an anomaly below the belt if it was indeed a woman and in would come the male worker to pat down the groin area of the victim. the two screeners were fired but haven't been charged and may never be charged because of the -- how the tsa handled its investigation. joining us now dan rect one of

denver's top criminal defense attorneys. it seems kind of outrageous they would fire these two people and at the same time the investigators never stopped one person who was groped and said, by the way, sir, you were just groped completely against our procedures, would you like to file a police report. >> the investigation by the tsa is just inexcusable. they could have easily found victims. there were victims. and for some reason it almost feels cover-up-like they didn't do that. the other related thing that's inexcusable is they were told about this back in november but didn't do anything until late -- this year and didn't notify the denver police who are geared up to do these kind of sexual assault investigations until february or march. so it all just feels bad. what the -- what the employees did is terrible.

but maybe more egregious is the tsa's lack of doing the right kind of investigation. >> is it -- i know you've had a lot of experience dealing with government agencies in these kind of issues. do you think it's an issue of internal arrogance? do they not care? are they worried about their reputation? how do you have people who are supposed to be protecting us enabling people to at one level sexually assault people? >> yeah. first let me say, it's the worst kind of sexual assault because it's done by one in a position of trust. it's as if a police officer did it to you. i mean when you're in an airport you're required to submit to this touching and when it's sexual in nature, that's just hugely offensive and what kind of arrogance -- >> do you think it's a double standard here because it involves male on male and perhaps didn't involve a woman? would that have made things different, do you think? >> it could be. that i don't know. but something is amis over there at the tsa.

>> well we reached out to the tsa for their statement. in part they sent us a very long statement, didn't deal with any of the issues we talked about. we can put it up on the screen. saying professionalism and integrity are at the core of who we are as counterterrorism professionals and it's up to each and every one of us to demonstrate this with each and every passenger at every airport around the country. clearly it doesn't seem they did it on the line there or all the way up the organization. >> yes. that's the problem. the tsa is trying to paint this as just a few bad apples out of thousands of good employees. and they aren't taking responsibility for the problems in their own investigation. so, the statement they issued is a bit offensive frankly. >> dan recht live in denver. we'll come back to you as news warrants on this story. it will probably not be the last we hear of it. appreciate your time sir.

>> thank you. much more ahead on america's news headquarters. the gop presidential pack in new hampshire for what's being billed as a leadership summit including louisiana governor bobby jindal who is on stage as you can see in nashua right now. business heavy hitter carly fiorina leaving the stage moments ago and we're going to talk to her in just a few moments. don't go away for that interview.

the pursuit of healthier. it begins from the second we're born. after all, healthier doesn't happen all by itself. it needs to be earned... every day... using wellness to keep away illness... and believing that a single life can be made better by millions of others. healthier takes somebody who can power modern health care... by connecting every single part of it. for as the world keeps on searching for healthier... we're here to make healthier happen. optum. healthier is here. minnesota winters are brutal it's tough being cooped up

welcome back, everybody and back to one of our top stories the reaction in congress to president obama's nuclear framework deal with iran. senator mark kirk speaking for many of his colleagues today voicing i had concerns about the deal in the gop address. peter doocy joining us more with more on this story. peter? >> for a good chunk of the time that we've been talking to the iranians with five other world powers including russia, tehran

and moscow have been working on a deal of their own for iran to buy ballistic missiles from russia. this afternoon we heard from an israeli intelligence official who is very alarmed by this under-the-table talking. >> it's fundamentally wrong. it's morally wrong to sell such sophisticated weapons to a country like iran that support terrorism and try to become a nuclear state. don't forget, this is the most dangerous fanatical regime in the entire world. >> but at the white house no sense of panic as president obama doesn't think things that iran is doing or saying away from the negotiating table really matter. president obama chalking it all up to politics as usual. >> part of the p-5 plus one's job is to sometimes find formulas that get to our main concerns while allowing the

other side to make a presentation to their body politic that is more acceptable. >> the iranians are still insisting that u.n. sanctions on their country get lifted as soon as they agree to a deal, if they agree to a deal. president obama's response to that, use what he calls creative negotiation so he is not ruling out the possibility that the iranians will get their way after years of trying to find a more balanced agreement. uma? >> peter, thank you very much for that update. and we go back live pictures from new hampshire. governor bobby jindal of louisiana talking. trying to drum up support in new hampshire. one of more than 20 republican presidential hopefuls. carly fiorina joins us next after she just wrapped up her remarks to tell us how it all went. . so start now at the bass pro shops

workender event and sale. with great deals throughout the store. plus free demos, social hour and great prizes april 24th and 25th. this is good, mom. "good"? (chuckles) it's delicious! and this new kibble blend is so healthy. thank you. no, nancy, thank you. kibbles 'n bits. because every bit matters. i hate cleaning the gutters. have you touched the stuff? it's evil. and ladders... awwwwwww!!!!! they have all those warnings on them. might as well say, "you're going to die, jeff". you hired someone to clean the gutters? not just someone. someone from angie's list. but we're not members. we don't have to be to use their new snapfix feature. angie's list helped me find a highly rated service provider to do the work at a fair price. come see what the new angie's list can do for you. people ship all kinds of things. but what if that thing is a few hundred thousand doses of flu vaccine.

that need to be kept at 41 degrees. while being shipped to a country where it's 90 degrees. in the shade. sound hard? yeah. does that mean people in laos shouldn't get their vaccine? we didn't think so. from figuring it out to getting it done, we're here to help. you want me to pick just one? yeah, right. i say if it looks tasty, order it. because at red lobster's create your own seafood trio i can have it all. choose 3 of 9 dishes for just $15.99. like the creamy baked lobster alfredo. and the sizzling brown butter shrimp scampi. and fresh soy-ginger salmon topped with sweet pineapple salsa. i could go on. but there are three things on one plate waiting for me and i'd rather just go wouldn't you? but hurry it can't last forever. [announcer:] what if one stalk of broccoli could protect you from cancer?

and you are looking live once again at the new hampshire first in the nation summit. bobby jindal of louisiana speaking right now. this weekend's cattle call is a chance for the local new hampshire organizers and party bigwigs to get an early and up-close look at the more than nearly two dozen potential republican candidates. former ceo of hewlett-packard carly fiorina just spoke a little bit ago and joins us now. appreciate you being with us ma'am. the last time you ran for public office was the senate back in 2010. you lost. i'm guessing this feels a little bit different? >> well, you know i did lose that election. it was california after all. but i also won more republican votes, more democratic votes, and more independent votes than virtually running anywhere in the nation and so i know from

experience that the ground game matters. democrats had an awesome ground game in california and they'll have an awesome ground game in 2016 and i also know that a conservative can unify our party and reach beyond our party to democrats and independents and we will have to do both of those things in order to win in 2016. >> you just talked about the ground game and it is so key in states like iowa states like new hampshire where you are now, south carolina all the first primaries. iowa is know tornotoriously tough. obviously there are a lot of folks who have topped up the top organizers in iowa, folks who have had campaigns there before. new hampshire also a number of the top activists are picked up. what is your path to the nomination? >> well, i actually am really pleased with the team that we are building and have built in both iowa and new hampshire. our plan is to, assuming that i get in, and i'll make a formal announcement and a final decision in the next several

weeks but our plan is to go the long haul. this is going to be a process of elimination before it's a process of selection. and so i think we will surprise people by how well we've organized. and, again, our plan is to still be standing. this is a long process and we're at the very, very beginning. >> a lot of folks have picked you as the anty hillary candidate and a number of republicans are talking about you as the best person to attack her. do you embrace that title or is there more to you? >> oh, i think there's a lot more to me. although i'm happy to point out her lack of accomplishment and her lack of candor and transparency because those are things that matter in a leader and she should not be president of the united states. but in addition, you know, i understand how the economy works, having started as a secretary and become the chief executive of the largest technology company in the world. i know more world leaders on the stage today than anyone else running, with the possible exception of hillary clinton.

although i didn't do photo-ops. i actually was doing deals and real business with these people. i understand bureaucracies and how they work and what you need to do to change them, and that's important because our federal government has become a vast, bloat, powerful corrupt bureaucracy that no longer serves citizens. i understand technology which is really important in the 21st century. and finally, i understand executive decision making, which is making a tough call in a tough time with high stakes. for which you're prepared to be held accountable. you don't learn that in a briefing book you learn that over a lifetime of experience. >> a lifetime of experience is an important question. one of the things that hillary said in her video that came out last week, she said the deck is stacked for those at the top, and at some level she would know somebody who makes hundreds of thousands of dollars giving speeches or at least she did. but the same can be said of you, somebody who was the ceo of a large corporation, made a lot of money doing that. do you feel that you can relate to everyday iowans and new

hampshirens and south carolinians on the campaign trail? >> well, you'll have to ask them. but i think the answer is yes. i started out as a secretary. my husband started out as a tow truck driver. our life has been very blessed, but we've also had tough times in our life. i battled cancer. we lost our younger daughter. so i understand when people struggle. and hillary clinton is right that the deck is stacked. only the wealthy, the powerful, the well connected and the big as in big companies can deal with the complexity and the power of the federal government. of course, she's dead wrong about what to do about it. the only way to level the playing field is to reduce the size and scope and complexity of government. because, you know, a $90 billion firm can handle big government, but a nine-person real estate firm like i started out typing in they can't handle it. and now for the first time in u.s. history we're destroying more businesses than we are creating. we're crushing the small and the powerless. we're wrapping people's lives up in webs of dependence and we have the lowest labor participation rate since 1976.

that's a bad situation we're in, and government is part of the problem. >> and i know we will hear more about your thoughts. may 5th your book comes out, same day actually that mike huckabee says he's going to make his announcement in hope arkansas, and we'll wait for your decision to come. carly fiorina from new hampshire appreciate it ma'am. all the best. >> thank you. most parents know all too well that racing a teenager is filled with challenges, despite the emotional roller coasters there are new theories that biology may play a new role in the all too familiar teenage tirades. we'll speak to one doctor who is taking a deep dive into the teenage brain. ♪ people don't understand my intentions ♪

this is not good, people. no! >> you're looking at the infamous gyro copter landing on the lawn of the u.s. capitol this week. the mail carrier who piloted the copter now driving back to florida awaiting his next hearing. doug hughes charged with operating an unregistered aircraft and violating national

airspace. hughes' wife is now speaking out. >> he had two emotional one he may come to me for my daughter this situation. but i think he patriot and i proud of him. but me it's very -- >> stressful! >> it's very stressful, yes, for -- for wife it's not good. >> stress indeed. doug hughes says he performed the stunt to draw attention to the need for campaign finance reform in the country. all right kids pay attention here. this might get you out of being grounded from mouthing off to mom. dr. frances jenten says being shall we say moody is not your fault. the new book is the "new york times" best seller "the teenage brain a neuroscientist survival

guide to raisinged a delessents and young adults." she's here now chair of the neurology department of the university of pennsylvania and perhaps more importantly for this segment the mother of two sons. so, have you cracked the code of theed a delescent brain? >> i certainly tried to in this book. it came out of my experience of being a parent and having my two sons morph into teenagers, what is going on? >> what does go on? >> two important things that people should know. a lot of myths should debunked about the teenage brain. it's a wonderful time in life where their brain can learn faster and your iq can change in your teen years. so they have real opportunity there. they're very active brains, but at the same time not balanced, because what happens is the brain areas are connected to each other over the course of lifetime, from the back to the front. it takes up until the mid-20s to finish this process. so it connects the brain region to region from back to front.

the last place to connect up is your frontal lobes. >> that's what controls emotion, right? >> emotion, risk-taking behavior, judgment, empathy, you know what i mean. >> we see it all the time. teen drivers notoriously bad drivers and because they tensionxt and drive. the question to is so often parents have kids who have some kind of issue. they're a little bit moody. they're a little bit insolent and they run to the doctor and they say, doc, we need medication. is that the answer? >> it may not be the answer. it's important to pay attention to your kid because in the late teens is when a lot of psychiatric mental health diseases can come on. but a lot of times the kids are learning to use their brains and their emotion areas of their brains are actually connected up before their frontal lobes so they are running with high energy with not enough brakes. >> i'm guessing there's not a lot of kids watching this teenagers, right now, they're probably out on saturday having fun. but parents perhaps grandparents, what can you do

what are the things you can do that don't involve putting your kids on meds to try to deal with things appropriately? is it better to be calmer firmer? what's answer? >> that's why i wrote this book. because a lot of books are around social psychology around this window and there's a huge amount of neuroscience that has come out. your teen is not waking up late because they're just being lazy. their circadian clock is different biologically. their moodiness has a biological explanation and their risk-taking behavior has a biological explanation. but they can also learn a lot more at this stage. we as parents we do have our frontal lobes connected, you know hopefully. and we can sort of help think for them and with them, and i think for me, the book was hopefully making people understand their children better so they wouldn't get angry, and most important, don't alienate your teen. i think that sets a bad cycle. >> dr. frances jensen

>> for me, it took somebody to show me that and to give me some inspiration so i hope that getting to the top of mt. everest gives somebody else inspiration to change their life. tt8fq@q:)q1m-[f=/p2!a>l

guides on that mission. he's very courageous to do this. >> unbelievable. hopefully he will be able to get a beer afterwards. i saw one in his hand. researchers off the coast of louisiana were in for a deep sea surprise this week. the research team was exploring the gulf of mexico and caught a curious sperm whale on tape. the elusive animal circled the team's remotely operated vehicle several times. i think it's better there weren't any people there. that would be kind of scary. this rare encounter with the 40-foot whale happened at the depth of 2,000 feet. unbelievable. before we go we have a sad parting to make note of today. >> bittersweet good-bye. >> sad for all of us. our beloved director -- >> bob arnfield has been here since 1998. think about everything he has seen. raise your hand and wave a little bit. there he is. he is outta here. >> he's going off to seek fame and fortune in north carolina.
