white house turning nasty in nevada. >> ted rcruz firing his campaig spokesman one day before the caucus. how will it effect voters? >> good morning, kristin. >> good morning. let's start with the video that created this whole mess. the communications director posted this link. watch. >> that would appear to show marco rubio showing a crew staffer that the bible doesn't have many answers in it. rubio's campaign cried foul and sent out a video of what he really said. >> that is rubio saying all of the answers are in the bible. he used the video as evidence of more dirty tricks from the cruz campaign. >> who will be held accountable

for making up this video? ? who was held accountable for lying about ben carron? i think it's a disturbing pattern of campaigns or flat outlying. >> cruz's communications director since deleted the tweet and apologized but that wasn't good enough. cruz called it a grave error of judgment and yesterday asked for his resignation. >> rick tweeted out a press story that falsely attributed to marco, some comments about the bible. turned out the story was false. regardless we are not going to call any one's faith into question. that's a standard i set from the beginning that's whey i asked fr rick's resignation. >> not one to be left out of a fight donald trump laid in on to twitter and quote ted cruz apologized to ben car on and cruz for dirty tricks. no wonder he lost the evangelical support. make no mistake this is not the

kind of story cruz wants to talk about heading into the caucuses in nevada. >> no, he does not. kristin fisher live for us. we will check back with you, of course. ted cruz' campaign has been called out from rubio for dirty tricks. firing rick tyler doesn't solve the problem. >> certainly the cruz campaign has increasing scrutiny about the ladies and gentlemened dirty tricks in the campaign. it showed up in the exit poll in south carolina with 33 percent of voters who answered exit polls talking about the cruz campaign was the dirtiest campaign. this was such a preposterous hit to say marco rubio would go pie by in front of cruz's father insult the bible while somebody was videotaping. i think rick tyler may be a scapegoat a little bit here but it was a silly tame president at an attack. the problem the cruz campaign faces in spoort of turmoil over this past weekend is i don't

think this puts those suggestions to rest. >> and in a fox news exit poll for south carolina primary when asked which of the five candidates do you think ran the most unfair campaign as you heard mention ted cruz came in right behind donald trump. a fox news alert, officers exposed a hacking group leaking personal information up r5 2 cincinnati cops as revenge for a deadly shooting. kelly wright is here with the breaking details. 52 officers loved ones at risk. >> it is very disturbing. in response to the attack the cincinnati fraternal order of police is saying it is doss everything it can to protect police officers, their homes and their families. in a video posted on youtube it shows a masked man with a digitized voice explaining they are showing three separate cell phone clips of cincinnati police involved in a deadly shooting of

paul gaston a man who they claim had his hands up when he was shot. it will share the personal information of cincinnati police as a revenge. >> we have a message to not only the cincinnati police department but to every law enforcement officer. when you murder a human being when you have other choices we will make your officer's information public record. >> cincinnati mayor says anonymous got the facts wrong. he says video shows and witnesses say paul gatson was actually reaching for a gun when police shot him. the mayor and other city leaders are quite concerned about anonymous sharing the personal information about police officers. >> police officers defend us, keep our way of life, keep us safe. >> any time you put information out about where our officer live, names of their children, their cell phone records, it is always a very, very serious. >> it is very disturbing. while the situation is very

serious as you heard there, mayor john kran lee said it will not stop police wefrom doing thr jobs. >> kelly wright live for us. thank you. >> the uber driver accused in the kalamazoo killing spree admits that he slaughtered six people atlanta co random. dault speaking out for the first time. >> anything you would like to tell the court in terms of connections with the xhaunity? >> (indiscernible). >> dalton is being melt on bond for murder charges. he randomly killed six people and wounded two others at three different locations while picking up passengers in between the killings. his motive still a mist. uber defending hiring practices saying no background check would have flagged and anticipated

this is now turning to nevada. it is very low turnout. in 2012 only 8 percent of the republicans turned out to vote in that caulcus. it is very hard to count some of these votes. the state party is in charge of this. and apparently officials will be taking pictures of the results on their cell phones an sending them in to the party. there is lots of room for error in this. >> of course back in 2012 the system did not go so well. this year as you mentioned they are going to be pictures sending those forward but to get into specifics you have more than 1700 presivenths that will be caucused. they will be sending the tallied results in. what happens if this process doesn't go smoothly? what does it do for the momentum of whoever wins? >> i can image whoever does win will spin this to victory. whoever doesn't win or comes in second or third or fourth or

fifth will somehow be able to spin this as the party handled this incorrectly. they will question the results and that sort of thing. also nevada's status as the fourth state to weigh in on the presidential race will be in jeopardy. >> nevada is a critical swing state in the general election. what will tonight tell us about the gop race in general? >> i am not sure it will tell us all that much. if donald trump wins it will be indicative of a national campaign. ted cruz and marco rubio do have a strong ground game. if either one pulls out a victory it will change the trajectory of this race. any one who doesn't win first will spin it off as an anomaly and go to the states that vote march 1st. >> this system is a little more smooth than it was before.

win. other candidates rally to get ahead. >> a highway miracle burns into flames. >> accommodating passengers of all shapes and sizes.

if he does it will be a historic third win in a row. that has ted cruz and marco rubio very concerned. >> the only way to beat them is go behind our campaign. if they attack us and engageling in personal slurs and attacks they could weaken us to a sufficient extent they hand donald trump the nomination. >> i don't care how much you think they are funny or how interesting they may sound if we nominate someone 40, 50 percent of our party can't stand we har going to lose. i will bring us together. >> the other two republican candidates in the race john kasich and ben carson are under property to drop out. kasich says don't count me out. he's hoping to squeeze out momentum from the second place finish in new hampshire. >> i am not going to listen to a

bunch of lobbyist insiders. i never have. i am an independent person. for the first time in my campaign my message is starting to be heard. that's why we are getting crowds. >> the candidates that gets the biggest crowds is donald trump. it doesn't hurt today his name is lit up on the vegas strip right above his hotel. tonight both trump and cruz will be in las vegas. rubio who has already moved on to minnesota he has his sights set on super tuesday which is exactly one week from today. >> thank you so much. iowa and new hampshire have spoken. i respect their decision. tonight i am suspending my campaign. >> jeb bush suspended his spa campaign over the weekend leaving five candidates left. as we head into the nevada

caucuses kristin was talking about that marco rubio and ted cruz are in a virtual tie. who is most likely to get jeb bush's vote? thank you so much for joining us. s always we appreciate your insight. bush dropped out we are headed to nevada there is a virtual tie. who gets bush's votes? >> a lot of people are saying there is a split here. he has 5-7 percent of the votes knew. where are they going to go? i think they are going to go to rubio. part of it is i think people that were supporting jeb they don't want trump to win. if you are deciding between kasich and rubio and the others i think you have to say where is my vote going to count? where am i going to put momentum. momentum has to go to rubio. you are somewhere between rubio and kasich.

remember this is a caucus. caucus is about momentum. it will be where the people are there. are conversations that happen. i think a lot of the votes in nevada will go to rubio. >> what about the candidates refusing to drop out of the race we have carson and kasich. they are just in single digits. >> they are at single digits. kasich is at about 9. carson last poll is about 5 percent. 5 or 6. i am looking between these units you have about 20 percent of the vote. that's how much trump is ahead. if these 20 percent go one way or the other it will have a big impact. what we need to have happen if trump is not going to be the candidate we to get it down to a 2 man race. a 3 man race is not going to be enough. we will have a third, a third, a third. if those candidates don't drop out. people say carson votes are going to go to cruz bush's to rubio. kasiches will go to rubio likely. it will make rubio a good contender. momentum matters a lot. people like to go for the

underdog they like to go foreground swell. rubio has to do everything right. he cannot have another new hampshire moment or he's going to have a hard time. >> speaking of momentum k he build off of the latest dirty tricks exit polling that said the campaign with the dirtiest tricks is 35 percent. >> one of the worst things that candidate can have right now is a lack of trust. we are seeing that on the democratic side hillary was hurting her. now she has a lot of questions about her. cruz was really really strong. he was seen as a leader. people question whether they can trust him. >> now to have this happen the campaign manager was forced to resign there's not only just the question there's evidence to say there was foul play there. i think it will make a lot of people supporting cruz soften. >> why is it that it would affect or impact cruz but yet you have donald trump who is actually ahead of him.

39 percent in terms of people that don't trust him but his campaign is dirty politics as well. >> it doesn't impact him. >> people support him, support him, support him. one of the things people say about trump that they love he says thwhat he means, he means what he says. he's authentic and real and true. people who don't like him don't trust him. they say this is a breath of fresh air. >> your predictions? >> i think we will see half winded big numbers. rubio will perform better than expected. cruz will have him go down. i expect rubio to come in second. >> any one drops out afterwards? >> i don't think so. >> i think they are promising to stick around. carson is draping out. why would he go home before he goedz to the home state. we will see what happens. we will have you back for sure. >> absolutely. >> officers exposed a happy
