5 jerofnc. hope to see you right here next week. once the most powerful weekend on record. patricia gets a major downgrade. this storm still packs a lethal punch. we can get the very latest on what's in store for millions of americans in its path. >> plus, coming home, matthew wheel wheeler's body is about to return to the united states. the first serviceman to die in the ground fight against isis in iraq. the day after announcing he's reorganizing his staff and cutting costs, republican

presidential candidate jeb bush insists he's in it to win it. >> i've made an adjustment to harness the resources of this campaign which is probably more than any campaigns. nevada and the sec primary states and that's where you're going to see the team and that's where you'll see me. remembering a hollywood legend. marine o'hara passes away at 95. >> good saturday to you. i'm leland vittert. >> i'm elizabeth pran. welcome to "america news headquarters" from washington. >> a mega storm comes roaring

across western mexico. here's a look from space at the sheer size of hurricane patricia. it's now been downgraded to a tropical depression. mexico breathes a sigh of relief that things weren't so much worse. texas meanwhile is bracing for heavy flooding. a powerful storm system has already soaked that state, flooding roads and derailing a huge freight train. now the remnants of patricia will bring more of what they need the least, rain. much of texas is under a flash flood watch. fox chief meteorologist is tracking it all from the fox extreme weather center. rick, looking behind you, it looks pretty bad. >> well, hereby's the deal. it was the strongest storm we've ever seen in the western hemisphere. but it wasn't the biggest. it's actually a very small storm in size. only extending out around 30 miles from the center of the storm. it kind of this readed the needle here. there's not a lot of population. it's also not an area we've been

able to get in or they've been able to explore and see what damage has been done. been hearing a couple reports there is extensive damage here. once they can get through all those roads that have partially beenwashed out. that right there, very quick moving. any time you have a hurricane move over land. especially the kind mountains here in the sierra nevada. now, that's one storm. want to show you another storm. remember last week, we had all that flooding across southern california, those mudslides. then the dust storms and floods in arizona. now here towards texas. or we had it earlier this week. this is seven days of a storm. now drawing up a lot of moisture here from patricia. now those two things come together. that moisture is bringing big problems. we've had big problems in texas for days. now it's going to be enhanced here across this eastern and southeastern coastal areas in

texas other the next couple of hours. major flooding going on. the town up here in navarro county has had over 18 inches of rain in 30 hours. there's going to be more coming throughout the day today. significant flooding. anywhere you see this red, we have flash flooding going on. includes areas just to the south of san antonio. i think the worst of that rain is going to be pulling off towards east. by the time we're done with this today into tonight, we're going to see another few spots maybe 8 to 12 inches. tomorrow, it really targets still eastern texas. take a look at this. parts of louisiana, parts of mississippi, potentially seeing a plus-12 inches of rain. flooding event. >> some of those places have already been hit so hard already this year. thanks, rick. >> mexico is spared the brunt of patric patricia. but mexican officials are warning residents not to let

their guard down as heavy rain may cause more flooding and mudslides. >> we're actually about 40 minutes from that area where hurricane patricia it make landfall. i am joined right now by our guest with the local police department. let me ask you, you had to be worried about what this hurricane was going to do to this little town. >> worried but were prepared. >> what did you think? you're being told by mexico city you've got this monster storm and you're right in the eye. >> yes. with the houses -- >> so what did you guys do? >> we prepared to evacuate everyone. >> those people we're seeing behind you are going to be returning to their homes today, right? >> yes, can return to their house today because nothing happened. >> why is that? >> i don't know. mother nature just --

>> right now we're in the sierra m m madres, these mountains -- >> all right, we're going to have to unfortunately cut off our interview. he is about 40 minutes from where the storm made landfall. as you can understand with technology today and with situations like this, it's sometimes hard to keep a signal but we will go back to him as we learn more from him. word of the fatalities at the end of the parade route, at

the university before the football game. evidently there was a car that crashed into one of the crowds there along the parade route. there are reports now of multiple fatalities. oklahoma state university has set out a tweet reading, quote, oklahoma police are saddened by the tragic incident. our thoughts and prayers are with those affected. obviously, it's a very fluid situation there. police are there investigating, trying to figure out if this was an accident or perhaps this was intentional. we're going to bring you the very latest information as it comes in to the fox newsroom. as we move on, it's just a couple of hours. in just a couple of hours, the body of the first american soldier member to die fighting isis in iraq will come home. army sergeant joshua wheeler's body is set to arrive at dover in delaware. he was shot during a rescue mission that saved 70 hostages from the islamic state where

they had them held in a prison in iraq. he later tied of his injuries in a firefight. the 39-year-old soldier is being hailed as a hero whonto the gunfire to defend his kurdish partners who were taking the lead on that raid. we're going to take a look at sergeant wheeler's remarkable life coming up a little bit later in the show. it is remarkable. just look at that large chest of medals. plus, two congressman weigh in on if the death marks a change in the u.s. mission in iraq. we'll bring you the arrival ceremony, what the military calls a dignified transfer, live as it happens this afternoon. with only 100 days until the iowa caucuses, ben carson is knocking donald trump out of the top spot in the state. new iowa polls show trump's numbers there are slipping and carson is taking the lead.

the man many thought would be the republican front-runner jeb bush is drastically cutting his campaign staff and focusing more narrowly on early states. bush is in charleston today where he spoke to a crowd of hundreds and will sit down for a town hall meeting in just hours. garrett tenny is following all the developments and he joins us now in studio. >> jeb has done well on several fronts. fund-raising, leading the way among republicans, as well as organization and size. all those things cost money though. they haven't been showing up in the polls. that has a lot of top donors concerned about what the future holds. on friday, his campaign announced its taking a more lean and mean approach going forward, cutting payroll, downsizing its headquarters by more than 50% and reducing travel costs by more than 20%. bush told reporters in south carolina not to worry and said he's going to put more focus on early primary states.

>> they're not really cuts in the sense of we're asking people to move out into the field where it matters. we have i think the largest campaign operation in south carolina. it's going to be bigger. it's going to be focused woining. >> the first in the nation state of iowa has a new leader among gop candidates as well in dr. ben carson who takes the top spot from trump in two separate polls released this week. carson jumps ten points from the last iowa poll in august with 20% of likely gop caucusgoers choosing him as his favorite. trump fell four points to 19%. yesterday, dr. carson was asked if he now expects to be a target of the donald. >> well, guess it really depends whether he's a gentleman or not. if he does attack me, i will continue to talk about the issues. you know, i just really don't buy into the whole attack here. i'm just not going to do that. >> last night, trump didn't hold

bag, calling the iowa polls a joke and then going after carson's calm demeanor. >> ben carson is the one that's leading iowa supposedly. ben carson is super low energy, right? super. he's super low. super low energy. we need tremendous energy. >> the next gop debate is this wednesday. a strong performance will be especially critical for those candidates who are struggling in the poll also in deciding whether or not to stay in the race. >> never a dull moment. gary tenney, thank you so much. >> you got it. if my colleagues entrust me to be the speaker, i want us to become the solution. >> that was congressman paul ryan this week agreeing to run for speaker of the house but not all republican members are on board with a ryan bid. the very conservative freedom caucus saying they support, not endorse, the house ways and means chairman.

so what will happen at the final vote, expected next week? one member of the freedom caucus, congressman nick mulvaney, joins me now. you had said previously a small handful of members had reservations. >> well, some reservations. come in mind, our support for him was not an endorsement. we were not able to get the requisite level of support within the conference or within our caucus to actually endorse. none of us were interested in given into his demands. specifically, the demand that we change the rules of removing the speaker. >> okay, so you said he had to meet your terms. i assume you had to meet some of his. what were his terms for you? >> the ones we don't really spend that much time on is he wants to spend more time with his family. he doesn't want to travel on the weekends and so forth. to be honest, we didn't ask

those questions. if you can do the job, you can do the job. we don't really care which days of the week you work. we're just going to look at the results. the issue for us was he wanted to change those rules regarding vacating the chair and we simply weren't interested in doing that. it's a long standing constitutional tradition in the house. we're just not interested in doing that. we had some conditions with paul about trying to change some of the rules. we were satisfied he was committed to those changes. we feel like he was willing to do what we asked him to do. we weren't going to give in to his primary condition on removing the speaker. >> is there a conflict there? you said you do back ryan but as a group you don't necessarily endorse him. we know you were endorsing a congressman out of florida, congressman webster. what's the distinction there? >> it's one of those internal rules that probably is boring to everybody. if 80% of our group votes a particular way, we try to vote

as a bloc. we simply said, look, we can't get to that 80% threshold. we got to almost 70% which is a pretty good number. we said look, you want 70%, we'll give it to you. >> if you don't have that 80%, are you assuring your constituents at home you'll be working with the potential new speaker of the house? >> well, i mean, i imagine paul's going to be the speaker. i look forward to working with him as speaker of the house. i don't understand that question. >> you said you don't have the 80% but as a group you do need to work with the speaker and the other factions in the house. can you assure the constituents you'll be willing to make a compromise? >> in terms of the speaker, yes, we're going to support ryan now that he's running for speaker. there are members of the house freedom caucus who will not support paul. there are friends of webster. there's honestly some people who have had some bad history with paul. specific to those men and women.

our group is going to support paul without any conditions. >> i wanted to focus on immigration. did you set terms with the potential speaker paul ryan in regards to any legislation pertaining to immigration? >> actually, he offered it. he came out and he said, look, i know many of you have questions about my positions on imcombination. i'll tell you what, as a good faith, i promise two things. we won't take up any immigration program while this president is in office. secondly, after the next president comes in, we won't do anything in the house unless the majority of republicans support going forward. that's all you can ask of a good speaker. we were very satisfied with that response. >> congressman mulvaney, thank you. >> thank you for having me again. a fox news alert. hollywood legend maureen o'hara has died. the red haired beauty from ireland starred in classic films like the quiet man, how green was my valley, miracle on 34th

street and even the parent trap more recently. her favorite leading man, john wayne, he starred in over half a dozen films together. many directed by another hollywood legend director john ford. her family said she died in her sleep this morning at her home in boise, idaho. maureen o'hara was 95 years old. we're going to take a look back at her amazing career in show business coming up a little later. a fox news alert out of oklahoma. we're learning more about that accident. oklahoma state university during their homecoming parade. we are learning from authorities on the ground that a car crashed into a group of spectators along the parade route. we know of multiple injuries. there are local reports of at least two people dead. there are also multiple medical

helicopters on their way. obviously what was supposed to be a joyous day has turned into one of immense tragedy. oklahoma state is saddened by the incident. our thoughts and prays are with those affected. we are continuing to work this story. no word yet on what will happen for the planned football game a little bit later today. rescue workers fight to keep this truck from plunging into the chesapeake bay. plus, out of control, what sent this and tear gas flying inside this legislative chamber early this morning. and republican leaders in congress vow to override the president's veto of the defense reauthorization bill that funds everything from active duty and retired military benefits to operations in afghanistan and iraq. they say president obama is playing politics. >> basic complaint is he wants to spend more money on domestic

programs, epa, irs, whatever. we can't do that in the defense authorization bill. coming up, a fair and balanced debate with two members of the house armed services committee.

we are continuing to learn more about that horrible accident. oklahoma state university's homecoming parade. we're just now getting in still photos of the scene. authorities say a car crashed in to a group of spectators along the homecoming parade route. we know and have confirmed multiple injuries. local reports there in oklahoma say at least two people are dead. what was the motive if it was intentional? obviously, you're look at a picture of one of the many medical helicopters that flew there to stillwater, oklahoma. we're told at least four medical helicopters were dispatched. oklahoma state university sent out a tweet reading oklahoma state university is saddened by the tragic parade incident earlier this morning. our that's rights and prayers are with those. a big investigation there going on in oklahoma.

the oklahoma state football team is scheduled to play. about two hours from now in their homecoming game. we are continuing to work this story. work our sources in oklahoma. we'll bring you the very latest as it comes into the fox newsroom. talk about being on the edge. a frightening moment for this driver of a truck as his vehicle dangles off maryland's bay bridge. a crash with another vehicle left the truck hanging over the bay. local fire officials say no one was hurt in the accident and all lanes of the u.s. 50 are now open. >> i'm going to be vetoing this authorization bill. i'm going to be sending it back to congress. my message to them is very simple. let's do this right. >> the president of the united states is more concerned about a

budgetary issue and nondefense spending than he is about defending this nation and the welfare and protection of the men and women who serve it in uniform. >> republicans claim president obama's veto the defense authorization bill is nothing more than playing politics at the expense of america's national security. the bill funds the pentagon and passed both houses with bipartisan support. we're going to hear from the republicans in a minute. first, to democratic congressman of the house armed services committee. we understand you voted for the bill originally. know you have some reservations. are you going to keep your vote to override the president or switch and why? >> i certainly do have reservations. of course the department of defense ashton carter was very clear about the concerns he has and the way in which the present bill that is vetoed is

structured and paid for. he says and i have to assume it's correct the way it's put together does not meet the needs of the military. hampers their ability to defend this nation. those are his views on it. i suspect the president at least took that partly into account. there's the question of the limitation called sequestration and the way it affects not only the department of defendant but also the other necessary parts of government. the fbi, other agencies that do protect this nation here on the homeland. all those things are in play. the president was very clear. he was going to veto this bill. help said so for the last six, seven months if it was not put in a certain form. >> i guess i'm -- >> so where i'm going to go on this -- to your question. i would hope we would do so.

i think the president's veto ought to be taken seriously. we ought not overright it. and solve the problems the department of defense has with the present bill. >> i'm going to take this as a no you're not going to vote for the overright. are both sides playing politics or managing to in a corner here in the sense one of the president's big issues is it prohibits the use of money from this bill to transfer prisoners to guantanamo. can you articulate any other reservations you have with how this bill is structured and what it does that doesn't affect the military in a good way? >> well, there are many, many parts of the bill. it's one of the most complex bills congress passes every year. i do have serious reservations about it. this bill puts us on a path to spend $1 trillion over the next 25 years on rebuilding our entire nuclear arsenal. when i happen to think there are

things that are much more important within the department of defense to spend our money on rather than rebuilding all our nuclear bombs and delivery systems. i have a very serious problem about that for example. we're going to have to spend money on dealing with the fact that terrorism is real. we have to spend money on upgrading our troops making sure they have the right equipment available to them -- >> you don't think this bill -- >> no, and i think it also does restrict the programs that are within the department of defense. the way in which a destructionist -- does not give the department of defense the long-term certainty of funding that is necessary for programs that literally go on for decades. that's a very, very real problem in the detailed management of the department of defense. the bill is not structured in a way that provides that kind of certainty. those are structural problems that can and should be dealt with. we do have an opportunity to deal with this in a way that solves the structural problems

as well as the pry ioritization within the department -- >> i'm up against a hard wrap, sir. we appreciate it and hope you'll come back as this continues on. congress n ma, appreciate your time. >> thank you. >> now we will move across the aisle to the republicans who are hoping to override the president's veto. congresswoman is on the armed services committee as well. appreciate you being here. you heard from the congressman who says he's going to change his vote. one less than the 270 you had initially to pass this. do you think you can get to two-thirds in the house? >> we're working every day to make sure that happens. this isn't the first conversation we're having about quote/unquote compromise with the president as john just attested to. we've been working on this bill for an entire year. let's not negate the fact that this is the first time in 54 years a u.s. president, a sitting commander in chief, has abandoned our troops when they

need us the most -- >> when you say -- >> we had a soldier killed yesterday in iraq -- >> we're going to get to that -- >> -- we have no budget -- >> congressman, we're going to get to master sergeant wheeler. i want to understand, help us understand, by this veto, does this mean our troops aren't going to get paid? does this mean retiree benefits? what is the real effect of this veto on the military and those who risk their lives everyday to protect our country? >> this is the entire military defense budget. it has to do with pay. it has to do with paying the troops out there right now. more than anything else, giving absolute assurance to the families that are watching our brave men and women go fight for freedom and keep the fight off of our soil, and i think it's the most reckless thing i've seen this president do. that's my bill. that's my amendment in there. i've had it three years in a row. what the president seems to be doing, the reason the nation

should listen today, because the president is more concerned about bringing terrorists with american blood on their hands to u.s. soil. i simply am saying not a chance. >> well, you're saying it. we'll see if it becomes law as it relates to gitmo. obviously, the president wants to be able to do what he wants when it comes to that. one of the reasons he vetoed this. i want to move on to the point you brought up. master sergeant wheeler. who quite literally ran into a firefight after he was sent there in a support mission. do you think this changes the paradigm of the u.s. mission in iraq? say what you want about the president's promise to the contrary.

i think, back to your question, we don't have a foreign policy in this question. i think every american in our country demands an answer. i saw on the armed services committee, there's no strategy. the point i want to make, the commander in chief is completely distracted in political games. what do we think the rest of the world's leaders are doing? what do we think isil and putin's doing while we're so distracted by politics in this country? >> it was a bipartisan vote. 70 votes i believe in the senate as well. have to understand -- >> it's not partisan, the president's made it partisan. >> all right, congresswoman, thank you very much. we'll bring you back as this develops.

appreciate it. the very latest from oklahoma, where a car rammed into a homecoming parade, including a statement from the governor. hurricane patricia is now a tropical depression. that's of little consolation to the folks in texas.

a number of folks medevac'd by helicopter. oklahoma's governor mary fallin issued a tweet saying, quote, my thoughts and prayers are with those affected. multiple law enforcement agencies are assisting and now we're going to dip in, listen in to our local affiliate there in stillwater, oklahoma, and their coverage. koco tv. >> preparing for a lot of chaos coming up, but there have been two waves. when the helicopters are here, there's a lot of people. they rush outside. we see a lot of people towards the door. they'll gather there. you'll see them holding up. >> that was our affiliate. it appeared, one side they were showing the medical center

there. obviously dealing with the mass casually event. and then aerial pictures of what may have been the scene itself. towards what looks like the football stadium. all the way at the end of that street. there was supposed to be a football game there. the homecoming game. oklahoma state cowboys take on the kansas jayhawks at 3:30 eastern. what's going to happen with that game, we don't know. we do know there is going to be a press conference there in stillwater in the coming minutes or hours. unclear what, as this is a very fluid situation. >> in fact, we saw oklahoma state sent out a tweet earlier, after this had happened. said the university is saddened by the tragic parade incident earlier this morning. our thoughts and prayers are with those affected. obviously, a very fluid situation. >> is up a sad situation on a day that was supposed to be nothing but happiness. as you can look at that picture. a perfect college football saturday for a homecoming

parade. i want to bring in steve, formerly with the fbi, for some more insight on this. what is going through the police's mind. as they know the investigation? >> first is the response, the first effort has to be toward dealing with the -- with the victims. >> lots of them, too. >> lots of them. coordinating with the rest of the emergency folks and getting everybody cared for and ton t t hospitals. and then securing the scene. securing a scene like this can be difficult. so you need to -- >> people were running through the scene as they were trying to get away, people were leaving? >> they say it was incredibly

chaotic. victims were everywhere. that included men, women and children. there's really no word on why the driver crashed into the state or how the driver -- >> we've seen these situations before where it was medically related as well. >> is it a crime? is it an illness? no idea of what caused this. police have to sort this out. what they do, you know, in the moments following this, in the minutes following this, affects the outcome in a lot of different ways. this is where police, one of the many kinds of situations where police really earn their -- >> a press conference by authorities. i think it really behooves them to get out of this situation early on. like we're seeing right now, there is speculation on whether or not this was a tragic accident or of course malintentions. we'll wait to the fact that we hear the police come out.

as of right now, we do know unfortunately there have been three fatalities and 22 injured. it looks like they were outside, perhaps a hospital awaiting more people arriving, so perhaps the scene is -- it's still transpiring. >> you can see the investigation still going on. you can understand the amount of chaos, you can hear it in the local -- you think about a saturday, folks are off, you have to call people in and then you have to first evacuate all of the injured. what happens on these scenes? what are the police doing now, an hour, an hour and a half into this incident? are we yet at the investigation point? are they trying to figure out what evidence they have? >> there's multiple things that have to go on. certain things like any physical

evidence. anything that might lead them to understanding. some of that's perishable. or time becomes a problem. you have to kind of prioritize what you're going to do. witness interviews. figuring out who really saw -- >> -- those still photos earlier. obviously, we're going to follow this story in stillwater, oklahoma. we'll have more on that. also, just south of oklahoma, they're dealing with massive flooding in texas.

that intersection is about two blocks from the stadium that intersection will probably be shut up to for many hours today while our investigate difference team still working the scene gathering evidence. >> was she a student here? from >> no, there is no indication of that. >> the president mentioned -- inaudible. >> i think he was talking about the tragedy of the cowboy family having to pull together some of the incidents that have occurred in the past. the colorado plane crash. [ inaudible question ] >> we have confirmed that she is not a student. as far as we can tell from our records, she is not a student. [ inaudible question ] >> pardon me?

[ inaudible question ] >> well, i don't know exactly. the police motorcycle was parked

to block southbound traffic. i'm assuming it was parked on the north side of the intersection. [ inaudible question ] >> absolutely too soon to tell. we can't speculate. that's why we have the investigators out. i would encourage that witness to contact us directly so we can get that information. [ inaudible question ] >> he wasn't actually on the motorcycle. the motorcycle was parked to block traffic. he was off doing control elsewhere in the intersection. >> what is the ages of the victims? >> i don't know. i only know the count. and the count could possibly go up. i know of at least two injured victims who had left the scene and reported to their residence. so that number may increase. >> let me make a statement.

i want to mention that we really talked a lot about whether to play the game. and the decision was finally made that we will play and we're going to remember the victims at the game. and we're going to move forward. but we will remember what's happened today. >> the numbers injured and the response, is it unprecedented, this many injured in one incident? >> well, i've been here 29 years and i can't recall an incident of this magnitude, no, certainly not. okay. ladies and gentlemen, that's all i have at this point. thank you for your time and for your patience as we try to gather information to do this. we will be publishing additional information as it becomes

available to us. so water the stillwater website, our face boonlg pabook page. we will push that out whenever we have it. thank you very much. >> can you spell the name one more time the woman who was arrested? >> yes, ma'am.a-.-d-.-a-.ada. >> we just heard from the fire and mayor and president of oklahoma state university about this oklahoma state-d-.-a-.ada. >> we just heard from the fire and mayor and president of oklahoma state university about this oklahoma stated-.-a-.ada. >> we just heard from the fire and mayor and president of oklahoma state university about this oklahoma state-a-.ada. >> we just heard from the fire and mayor and president of oklahoma state university about this oklahoma statea-.ada. >> we just heard from the fire and mayor and president of oklahoma state university about this oklahoma state-.ada. >> we just heard from the fire and mayor and president of oklahoma state university about this oklahoma state.ada. >> we just heard from the fire and mayor and president of oklahoma state university about this oklahoma stateada. >> we just heard from the fire and mayor and president of oklahoma state university about this oklahoma stateda. >> we just heard from the fire and mayor and president a. >> tragedy. >> and nowing looking at live pictures there from stillwater and still pictures of the scene of what police are saying was a car accident. three dead, 22 injured at the oklahoma state homecoming parade. >> very emotional press conference. we heard that there has been a woman taken into custody, arrested under suspicion of driving under the influence.

they said the intersection is still closed down, the investigate difference team is still working. and i want to bring in steve pemerantz, former fbi. they were asking for witness accounts. there were hundreds it if not thousands along the parade route. why is it so important that all of that information get to authorities immediately? >> one of the things we learned in the recent conference thpres it's a crime. it's a crime scene, a criminal investigation. it takes on a different hue. so they will charge that person with something. we don't know what yet. we don't know if it was deliberate or accident al and the way we get there is by interviewing witnesses. what took place, what actually transpired. and in order to do that, you have to get the witness interviews and get the evidence

and some of those people saw something and can answer some of the most critical questions. >> we heard one question at the very end, someone said do you know how fast the vehicle was going and he said not right now. but can they find out that information? >> maybe not down to the last mooil, but presumably again through some forensics. there could be tire impressions and skid marks and that can answer some of that. and the witnesses can tell you approximately how fast. >> you have that part of the investigation when we were listening to the police chief, driver was arrested. they said we wouldn't do that if we didn't have probable cause. that's number one. >> right. >> but number two, they said that there is a mandatory not breath test, but blood test in this case. that has to be fairly conclusive, isn't it, in terms of whether someone is intoxicated or not? >> yes, assuming that we're dealing with an alcohol intoxication. we don't know yet driving under the influence of something. we don't know what that something is yet. >> but there is a substance that

you could be driving under the influence of that wouldn't show up in a blood test? >> yes, a variety of illegal drugs for example, not all of them will show in a blood test. >> one of the things that we also learned was unfortunately the number of fatalities may also go up. he said that right now they can confirm that three fatalities have occurred, 22 injured. how does that play into the scenario here? if we do see more fatalities, obviously that would probably mean more charges. >> of course if the number of victims will affect the way they charge somebody. i mean depending on again a variety of -- the totality of the circumstances. but certainly the number of injured and particularly the number of dead could change the outcome. >> well, we'll obviously ask to you stick around and we'll bring that information to our viewers as it becomes available. it is right now 2:00 eastern. kickoff there in stillwater, oklahoma about an hour and a

half from now for the homecoming game. what was a joyous football saturday has turned into a day that no one in stillwater will ever forget for its tragedy no matter the result of that football game. three dead, 22 injured. we'll be right back. now as we to follow a breaking and sad story out of oklahoma. authorities say the driver of the car that crashed into a crowd of onlookers at the oklahoma state university homecoming parade has been arrested on suspicion of dui and they have taken a blood sample. police captain there reports three people dead at the homecoming parade. as you look at live pictures there up toward the football stadium in staillwater. at least 22 injured in that

accident. reports say a car quite literally barreled into the crowd. one witness reports people flying 30 people into the air, quote, like rag dolls. we'll have more on this as it becomes available. we will go to the other big story of the day. residents in an already saturated texas are now preparing for more rainfall as remnants from hurricane pa vish sha make way across the state. the national weather service says parts of texas have received more than 18 inches of rain since friday. will carr is following the story from our western bureau. >> large parts of texas got a lot of rain in just a short amount of time. you mentioned some parts getting up to 18, up to 20 inches in

some areas of texas. about 50 miles south of there is. we actually saw a train derail, a union pacific freight train, a creek nearby overflowed, then it washed away the tracks, knocked the train over. two crew members jumped out, they had to swim through the water before they were picked up by a swift water rescue team. thankfully they weren't injured. the 64 car train was hauling cement and now there is concern over diesel from the train leaking into the water so they had a hazmat team on scene. large parts of texas are still under a flash flood watch through sunday or monday. the dallas area has seen more than 7 inches of rain over the past 24 hours. there are also flash flood watches for waco which has had a record amount of rainfall. austin, san antonio where there were reports of a man being swept away while walking his dog. there is also watch in ft. worth where some drivers had to abandon their cars when

dangerous flash floods hit the area. >> the 18 wheeler went around me and then some of the trucks went away me and were honking like what are you doing. i'm like i'm not going. i have a little car. i didn't think i could make it. and so i stopped and freaked out and called 911 and they were like stay there. >> a lot of people don't realize exactly how powerful moving water can be. think about this, 6 inches is enough to knock a person over two feet, enough to move a car. we saw the train get derailed there in texas. and with that in mind, it can be extremely dangerous. the national weather service in houston and gallon investigation son is asking for people to simply stay inside and avoid the roads. >> will carr reporting live. thank you so much. and now we will speak with spokesperson for the union pacific railroad. jeff, thank you so much for joining us today. we've been watching these pictures develop out of texas

and specifically the image of the water. when did you first learn that you had suffered this loss? >> well, it was certainly something to weak up to this morning. the train was passing through the area approximately 3:30 this morning when it hit the low patch with the water over the track and the crew put the train into emergency stop to try to safely stop the train. came to arrest in an area where the creek bed overflowed and water was rushing over the rails. fortunately they followed protocol and got to a safe place where they were able to contact union pacific officials as well as local emergency responders and we were able to work with navarro county and get their water rescue team out there and bring them home safe. >> tell me what you were

transporting and how do you even begin the cleanup efforts for this. >> well, this train is what we call a unit train. it was carrying 64 loads of cement which is something that we carry on a regular basis here in texas as we help build roads and houses and everything. as far as cleanup, it's going to take a while. we're kind of at the mercy of mother nature and waiting for the waters to subside so we can get heavy equipment out there to lift the cars back up and put them on the track. we'll also have to do extensive repair work to that track so that we can get those cars moved out. we'll be looking to salvage as much of the material that is in the railcars as we can so that we minimize the impact that it has on the immediate area. >> how many train cars are we talking here, how far does it stretch? >> the train itself had 64 cars

on it. fortunately 19 of them did not derail and we're in process of pulling those out northward to clear the area and give us room to work. so we have better than 45 cars that we'll have to be working on and get them picked up and cleared out of the way. >> can you give us a sense because it's hard to tell from the aerial pictures, was this the major train thoroughfare through texas or was this sort of a second taker track that this train was on? what is the disruption to commerce there in texas not the only because of the floods but specifically because of this derailment? >> well, this track that runs north/south is a major thoroughfare. fortunately we have a couple of other tracks that run north and south in the immediate area. so we're able to reroute some trains if necessary. it will obviously slow some things down in the immediate future as we get the track reopened. we have some contingency plans in place to reroute trains or we may need to hold them for as

long as necessary. but the first priority is to make sure our group is safe and the next priority is to make sure the recovery teams are safe and can get in there in a safe way and then get it reopeneded a pa pack up and running. >> jeff, thank you so much for joining us on what is a very busy saturday for you. >> no problem. busy saturday for us, as well. the body of master sergeant joshua wheeler is en route home. he's expected to touchdown in dover, delaware in about an hour and a half. wheeler is the first u.s. soldier member of u.s. delta force to lose his life fighting isis on the ground in iraq. kristin fisher joins us now with the latest both on his life and

also on the political fallout of his death. >> well, master sergeant joshua wheeler was a legend among the army's elite delta force. he had deployed to iraq 11 times. he had 11 bronze star, four with a valor. so the 39-year-old had a history of risking his life to help others and that is exactly what happened wednesday night when wheeler went out on a hostage rescue mission with kurdish forces fighting isis. sources say wheeler was under strict orders to stay out of the fight but when things went south, wheeler ran toward the gunfire to help his kurdish partners and it did cost him his life. yesterday defense secretary ash carter applauded his actions even though contradicted u.s. policy in iraq. >> this is combat. things are complicated. but the story is as i related it already. this is someone who saw the team that he was advising and. >> thom:ing coming under attack.

and he rushed to help them and made it possible for them to be effective. >> and the mission was a success. about 70 hostages were freed. it was the first time u.s. troops had become voched in direct ground combat in iraq since the start of the war against isis and wheel are wer e first u.s. combat death but the pentagon remains reluctant to say that this soldier died in combat because the president promised last year no combat, no ground troop ms in iraq. listen. >> i want to be clear, the american forces that have been deployed to iraq to not and will not have a combat mission. as your commander in chief, i will not commit you you and the rest of our armed forces to fighting another ground war in iraq. >> a pentagon spokesman says it's important to realize u.s. military support does not represent a change in our policy. u.s. forces are not in iraq on a

combat mission and do not have boots on the ground. so the pentagon clearly still trying to explain how a u.s. soldier can die in a firefight but not in combat. >> sergeant wheeler's boots were on the ground and he paid the will you tell price. we'll have his arrival at goe r dover for you. and ash carter says the raids will continue. kristin fisher, thanks so much. still to come here, you won't want to miss the story behind this incredible coast guard video. you're seeing there a sailor clinging to the mast of his disabled bobbing sailboat battling the sea for a chance at a rescue. plus -- >> it's been an intense week for hillary clinton as she gave her marathon benghazi testimony. we'll ask the political panel to break down how she did. sdl have you ever heard of a judge calling the d.a. or

defense attorney saying don't care that witness? >> i don't care what you all say about me. it doesn't bother he me a bit. recommend synthetic over cedar? "super food?" is that a real thing? it's a great school, but is it the right one for her? is this really any better than the one you got last year?me a . if we consolidate suppliers, what's the savings there? so should we go with the 467 horsepower? ...or is a 423 enough? good question. you ask a lot of good questions... i think we should move you into our new fund. sure... ok. but are you asking enough about how your wealth is managed? wealth management at charles schwab.

tand that's what we're doings to chat xfinity.rself, we are challenging ourselves to improve every aspect of your experience. and this includes our commitment to being on time. every time. that's why if we're ever late for an appointment, we'll credit your account $20. it's our promise to you. we're doing everything we can to give you the best experience possible. because we should fit into your life. not the other way around. you can see some of the victims being loaded into a number of the medical helicopters and also pictures from the scene there. you get a sense ever tof the chaos and destruction that occurred. >> and a lot of the witnesses

reports are that it was an incredibly chaotic scene.>> and reports are that it was an incredibly chaotic scene. the crowd reportedly barreled into the parade onlookers. and three people are dead, 22 injured. one thing that we heard from authorities, that there is a possibility that the number of fatalities unfortunately can go up. right now the game is still going on just blocks away from the creime scene. >> kickoff an hour and 15 minutes away. >> and the intersection will remain shut down, so thousands of folks do need to plan alternate routes. but like we said, a 25-year-old woman is in custody. there is indication she is a student, but right now we'll continue to follow this breaking story out of stillwater where it appears a young woman barreled into a crowd of onlookers during a parade at north main street.

i have gone to bed and cried every night this week because i am so saddened by what these veterans have to go through to get assistance. >> i will not stand for it. not as commander in chief but also not as an american. none of us should. so if these allegations prove to be true, it is dishonorable, it is graceful and i will not tolerate it, period. >> that was president obama a year and a half ago making a promise to fix massive backlogs at veterans affairs hospitals nationwide. but what's changed? veterans of foreign affairs senior associate scissors not much. carlos, as you break down the numbers which tell a stunning story, 8% of veterans are waiting longer than 30 days for their v.a. appointments. that is up from 6% a year ago

when the president promised he was going to fix it. i don't have a ph.d. in math like my sister does, but i don't think you need one to realize that things are getting worse, not better. who is at fault? >> you're certainly right. the wait times have continued to increase and there are a number of reasons for it. frankly, v.a. employees have been manipulating wait times for quite some time. and now that they're correcting a lot of these problems in eliminating proceed will hihibi scheduling practices, you're starting to see the tree demand on the system. there is also increased demand on the system and frankly v.a.'s inability to expand access fast enough to keep up with demand. >> so in other words, things may have been much worse than we were led to believe even when they were pretty bad?

>> exactly. there were v.a. employees that were zeroing out wait times in order to earn performance bonuses or appease managers. >> are we pretty certain that now we have a realistic picture at least on how bad things are or is there still folks cooking the books as far as you all can tell? >> we haven't seen any evidence that there are still folk cooking the books but we have seen a gap between what veterans perceive their wait types to be and what v.a. reports they are. and that's a credit to the way the v.a. measures wait times and also an aging or old and out of date scheduling system. >> imagine a government facility being old and out of date. i will not stand for it, not as commander in chief, said president obama. has the top echelon of this administration done enough to focus on this problem and to try to fix it or is it simply too bill big or do they simply not care in your mind?

>> president obama has brought in an excellent leader in secretary mcdonald. he certainly has right goals in mind and he's making progress. slow progress, but we have to remember it took years even decades of mismanagement and underfunding it to get to where we are and it will take us a while to get us out of it. >> you say bob mcdonald is an excellent v.a. secretary. the question would be does -- he has the responsibility to fix things. does he have the authority? because one of the big issues was that you could have a great top guy but he couldn't fire anybody. >> so we see an improvement in something we supported earlier last year in giving him expedited authority to fire senior executives. we're also supportive of a bill that would give authority to lower level rank and file employees. >> is that bill within congress

right now? >> yes. >> and do you think it will pass? >> it faces opposition in the senate. >> so there are senators opposed to firing people who are incompetent? >> i don't think anyone is opposed to firing incompetent employees who put veterans lives at risk and when it comes down to it, the due process ensuring that the process is adequate and in our opinion it is too slow. we shouldn't take two years to fire someone. and also v.a. employees do have a constitutional right to have due process, but that process needs to be faster. >> two years is a very long process indeed. we'll see what happens with that bill. come back and update us. appreciate your time and also your good work on this issue. >> thank you for having me. >> liz, what's coming up? an incredible rescue.

this french sailor took a daring leap from a disabled sailboat to awaiting rescue. he says he had to wait for the opportunity to take the life-saving jump and it was all caught on coast guard video. what you can't see in the video is the cat he has tucked under his coat before jumping to the rescue ship. yes, pip did survive as well and both are fine. they plan to return to france until they're able to fix the boat and return to sea. >> wonder if the cat got sea sick. all right. coming up, we'll go back to stillwater, oklahoma where a tragedy of really unbelievable proportions is unfolding there on this football saturday. what was the home coming parade turned into a scene of death and destruction. three dead, possibly more, 22 injured at least when a car plowed into the homecoming parade. one person has been are arrested on suspicion of dui. we'll have more on the other side of the break.

officials are asking anyone who witnessed the event to call stillwater police. they are hosting kansas this afternoon in the game, and we hear that it will go on as planned and there will be some remembrance to the victims of today's tragedy. >> lauren green reporting live. thank you so much. one of the things that we did learn during that press conference is that national guard members were there, first responders were there because they were all participating in the parade. >> there were fire trucks in the parade that all of a sudden became the very first responders on scene. >> right. he said this homecoming is a wholesome event, a wholesome town, certainly they are obviously devastated. three fatality, and there is the possibility we could see more as folks were rushed to surrounding

hospitals. and it was like she said, men, women and children of all ages victims obviously completely unsuspecting of the vehicle coming up. >> we're looking at live pictures coming in there from stillwater, oklahoma. these now we're being told are on tape pictures from actually the accident scene itself. and police have a long investigation to go. they're asking for witnesses to come forward, anybody who has video to come forward. but interestingly enough, they you must have seen something very clear about this 25-year-old driver that led them to believe that she was intoxicated. they ended up giving her a mandatory blood test from there and we'll see what the rut he r of those are. should be a couple of days. they say they are treating this as a homicide investigation. we want to bring in rick maroni on the phone, he was in stillwater for the homecoming

game and about a block away. so rick, take me through, you're watching the parade, it's a beautiful football saturday. what was your first indication that something was horribly wrong? >> we heard a tremendous amount of ruckus and noise and made our way to the scene to see absolute carnage. a lot of chaos. just a lot of people trying to figure out what was going on. and then shortly thereafter, emergency responders started showing up followed by there was -- i believe there was some military folks that were there as a part of the parade. they jumped into the scene and started helping secure the perimeter. and then from there, it just turned into a scene that you would most likely see? a war zone. about. >> you can give us any sense in terms of what were you seeing a that the intersection?

did it -- >> you can give us any sense in terms of what were you seeing a that the intersection? did it -- >> you can give us any sense in terms of what were you seeing a that the intersection? did it -- >> you can give us any sense in terms of what were you seeing a that the intersection? did it -- >> you can give us any sense in terms of what were you seeing a that the intersection? did it -- >> you can give us any sense in terms of what were you seeing a that the intersection? did it -- >> you can give us any sense in terms of what were you seeing a that the intersection? did it -- we're looking at aerial pictures. was the parade going down one street and the car came from an intersecting street? >> yes that's kind of what it looked like. i didn't see the actual accident, so i don't know which direction the car was coming. but from the looks of it, it looks like the car had been coming up a side street at a pretty high rate of speed and crashed through the parade and hit a motorcycle police officeredofficer ed and then i believe crashed into a pole. >> we see pictures of a car crashed in to a pole. we think that was the car -- >> it was a silver type car. >> that's what we're seeing in this picture. you were a block away. one block and you could have been one of the folks who by witness accounts were thrown like a rag doll. now you hear that the driver of that car has been arrested for

dui and would have been somewhere around the noon hour there. give us your reaction to that news. >> what is kind of ironic, my wife was just talking to me on our way that she wished we would have been earl so we could have had a better seat at the parade. thankfully that wasn't the case. it sickens me to hear that the driver was intoxicated. at 10:00 in the morning, hard to wrap your head around that. >> give us a sense of what the mood is like there. you have a football game at 3:30 in about an hour. the homecoming game, a beautiful football saturday and now you have this unimaginable tragedy strike. what are folk talking about, what is the mood on the street? take us through it. >> it's somber. me and my wife were talking about that as we were walking up to the stadium. it's quiet. i think people are trying to make the best of it, but it's on

everybody's mind and there was even initial talk that they had talked about canceling the game, but this they decided not to do that and pay respects to the victims through doing what oklahomans do and that's rally together and try to make the best of obviously a horrible situation. >> and to expand on that, can you tell us what took place inside the stadium? i know that they were going to continue with the game really to honor and respect those this morning. >> i'm not sure what is going in the stadium yet. we're still out in the kind of the common area with all the fans. but i've heard through some of the news outlets that they were planning something inside ethe stadium but i'm not sure what it is yet. >> rick, thank you so much for joining us. obviously a very sad situation in stillwater. if anything develops, we'll keep

our viewers updated. >> thanks very much. hurricane patricia slammed in to mexico's western coast as a category 5 hurricane. by this morning, the weekend storm had been downgraded to a tropical depression as it moved inland and northward. remnants of the storm are now a problem for the united states especially texas. another powerful storm system had already drenched the state and now patricia will bring even more rain. one person has been swept away by the floods in san antonio. he was rescued. they also caused a freight train to derail south of dallas. the crew of the train was rescued, as well. and as we look at these pictures of highways covered in water, we understand that mch uch of the state of texas is now under a

flash flood watch, some under a flash flood warning. in mexico, unbelievably after this storm, no fatalities have been reported and patricia seems to have done remarkably little damage although you see some flooding there. concern over flooding and perhaps landslides that could come later still linger. yet another fox news alert. marine o'hara has died at the age of 95. the irish movie star died in her sleep at her home this boise, idaho. david lee miller takes a look at her life and her career. >> she was arguably the first female action star dubbed the queen of technicolor. >> i had always played very strong dominant courageous, brave, ridiculous women. >> one of six children, she was born near dublin on august 17, 1920 to a businessman father and

actress singer mother. o'hara began acting at the age of 6 and in 1939 she received rave reviews for jamaica inn. that same year, she made her u.s. film debut in the hunch back of notre dame. and signed a contract with rko. during the a contract with 20th century fox, she starred in miracle on 34th street. she starred in five films with john wayne. the first in 1950 and then 1952 brought the quiet man. in the '60s, o'hara took on other projects including recording albums and staring on broadway. in 1961, she starred in the parent trap. she was also a wife and mother, married three types, her third husband charles blair perhaps the love of her life. >> a wonderful glamorous, exciting adventurous life.

now, that's more like it. what's in your wallet?

and i quit smoking with chantix. i don't know that i can put into words how happy i was when i quit. it's like losing some baggage, i don't have to carry it around with me anymore. chantix made it possible for me to quit smoking. along with support, chantix (varenicline) is proven to help people quit smoking. chantix definitely helped reduce my urge to smoke. some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood, hostility, agitation, depressed mood and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping chantix. some had seizures while taking chantix. if you have any of these, stop chantix and call your doctor right away. tell your doctor about any history of mental health problems, which could get worse or of seizures. don't take chantix if you've had a serious allergic or skin reaction to it. if you have these, stop chantix and call your doctor right away as some can be life-threatening. tell your doctor if you have heart or blood vessel problems, or develop new or worse symptoms. get medical help right away if you have symptoms of a heart attack or stroke. decrease alcohol use while taking chantix. use caution when driving or operating machinery. most common side effect is nausea. man, i love being a non-smoker.

ask your doctor if chantix is right for you. what would help is simply being able to recognize a fair price. truecar has pricing data on every make and model, so all you have to do is search for the car you want, there it is. now you're an expert in less than a minute. this is truecar.

a sad day in stillwater, oklahoma as we continue to follow the breaking news there on this football saturday. three people are reported dead. we have now learned eight in critical condition and 14 others injured. a car plowed in this to the crowd at the oklahoma state

homecoming parade. you're looking at aerial pictures of the scene. police have arrested 25-year-old adacia chambers and charged her with driving under the influence and have taken a blood sample. eyewitnesses say a car barreled into the crowd of parade onlookers. police say the suspect's sedan crashed in to a police motorcycle who was working security at the route and then into the crowd of people. one eyewitness saying people were thrown like rag dolls. kickoff for the osu/kansas homecoming game is just about 45 minutes from now. the game we're told will go on, but not before a moment of silence to remember the victims. one fan there on the ground things us things are very somber in stillwater. very unlike the scene you would

think of on homecoming saturday. oklahoma governor mary fallon has tweeted my thoughts and prayers are with those elected by the tragic events. you can imagine the thoughts and prayers of so many are with the people of oklahoma with the victims, we've learned some are in very dire straits. to contin story and bring you any updates that we get. well, it was a roller coaster week for presidential candidate hillary clinton. vice president joe biden announced he would not be joining the race. two of her competitors dropped out of the democratic primary. the former secretary of state also faced the controversial house benghazi committee for a full day, 11 hours of testimony. so let's take a fair and balanced look at it. we have president of solitairity strategies and kevin sheridan

who severed as senior adviser to the romney/ryan campaign in 2012. gentlemen, thank you so much for joining me. ke kevin, i want it start with you. i haven't seen a lot of gloating from either side. now that the dust has settled, what is your take weaway from w is a very big week? >> it is a very big week. i think if joe biden had gotten into the race, i think is he probably would have beat him and looked a little stronger than she will ultimately when she's running geps nothing but herself. i mean without any opponent, she shows a tendency to be able to step in it a lot. and we'll see her now it will be a coronation, it will be just all about hillary now in the democratic party. she has no opposition and any meaningful opposition. so now it's up to the american people whether or not they judge her honest and trustworthy. >> chuck, do you think no

opponent is a good thing or bad thing? >> i'd like to remind everybody that she still has bernie sanders who raised just under a million dollars from what she had raised. but there is opposition out there. she had a wonderful week and she is really lucky and she got to go do the benghazi thing. her voters and the biden voters were the same. the bernie sanders supporters are rock solid. so it was really good for her to be able to go in, not get a glove laid on her with benghazi and she had a really good debate. it may be the best 12 days of her campaign yet. >> i want to expand on that. is she completely out of the woods for any potential controversy? she said during that hearing that she has released 90% to 95% of her e-mails over to the state department. but we didn't hear the same sentiment from the state department. so is she completely out of the woods? >> i don't think so. any anytime you have the fbi around, anytime you hear people talking about investigations,

anytime you're talking about a special counsel, there is still uncertainty there. >> kevin, i want to bring up the fbi. what do you think could happen if we do start to see more as a result or more investigations into the former secretary? >> well, i think it's a pretty hard argument to make that she didn't mishandle classified information. so i don't know what the fbi has got on her, i don't know where the investigation will go. i think ultimately it will be probably a presidential level political decision as to whether or not the justice department actually prosecutes. if they find something. but look, there are politics all up and down this. i think the fbi has, you know -- hopefully they can conduct a very nonpolitical case in this case because it's really tough. this could be the next president of the united states and whether or not they can really get to the bottom of this and then make the decision with with the white

house as to whether or not to go forward with anything. >> i don't have much time left, but i want to give the last word to chuck. i want it broaden it a little bit. i heard commentary this week that said if hillary does in fact lose the nomination, it won't be because of october. i want to get your reaction to that statement. >> i think that there is a lot of candidates out there that have tapped into this uneasiness with the american electorate. you see her and bush not at the top of every poll out there because people are tired of the status quo. >> all right. thank you both for on joining us. this story isn't going away anytime again. a lot more still ahead on america's news headquarters. we are following two big stories. a weakening hurricane patricia still posing major threats to parts of the lone star state. also we will check in on jeb bush's campaign and what may be in store for the once

frontrunner now possibly running out of money. the possibility of a flare swas almost always on my mind. thinking about what to avoid, where to go... and how to deal with my uc. to me, that was normal. until i talked to my doctor. she told me that humira helps people like me get uc under control and keep it under control when certain medications haven't worked well enough. humira can lower your ability to

fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you've been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if you've had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flu-like symptoms or sores. don't start humira if you have an infection. raise your expectations. ask your gastroenterologist about humira. with humira, control is possible.

as the presidential republican candidate announces

-- thursday -- to put it in medical terms. is jeb bush's campaign sick or is it on loorife-support? >> life-support. it's looking worse at the minute. endorsementins are slowing down. and spending money like scott walker. slashing salaries like rick perry. is jeb bush leaving soon? >> he's saying he's in it for the long run and saying he could win the nomination soon. some of the nominations and if jeb bush fails to win new hampshire orr iowa, that could be devastating to his campaign because those could be the opportunities he could use to be a serious candidate.

>> rather than crisscrossing, for so long, folks inside his campaign today, it's too early to pay attention to the poll numbers and too early to do this and that, and turn this around with a hundred days until iowa. >> his campaign, the reason he's not traveling to these states is because he's so short on money right now. he's had to scale back his, not his fund raising, his expenditures tremendously and even if he does make it to the nomination, he could still face tremendous trouble. we just saw this week that now 44% of republican voters say they wouldn't vote for jeb bush if he does become the republican nominee and at the same time, only 36% say that of donald trump who is a candidate that has gone back and forth with jeb bush for most of the three. >> interesting what we're hearing about happening this weekend. down in texas, we're hearing that jeb bush, for lack of a

better term is planning a pow wow. you can imagine who's there. barbara bush, the matriarch and now jeb and some other family adviso advisors. wouldn't he like to be a fly on the wall at that meeting? >> let's not forget, jeb bush said he doesn't want to be associated with his father or brother, and yet here he is, meeting with the entire family. >> his brother is out there campaigning for him. >> with the remarks by donald trump, as much as he's tried to differentiate himself and paint himself as his own candidate, he continues to go back to the bush family and what we're seeing in the polls -- >> the donor network as well. we'll see how long that's able to last. are you hearing the fundraisers are abandoning him pretty quickly? >> the fund raising is slowing down. his endorsements are slowing down. it's going to take a stellar debabt performance to get him back on top. >> we'll see if he delivers.

i'm sure there's a lot of people watching including you. in the washington examiner, thank you, ma'am. that's about all for us here in washington. obviously, a sad day in oklahoma as we follow breaking news. more on that coming up right now. >> thanks for joining us.
