milestone in the investigation into the russian election interference with reports that special counsel robert mueller and his team have filed their first charges in the controversial probe. i'm eric shawn. this is a brand new hour of america's news headquarters >> i'm arthel neville. the nail -- the nature of the charges is not clear nor is the identity or number of individuals targeted. but reports from "wall street journal" and other media outlets say first arrests could some as early as monday. garrett tenney has been following this story and is joining us now with more. >> former justice department officials tell me there is likely substance behind these charges because of the high-profile nature of this case

and because the evidence was apparently enough for a federal grand jury to sign off on the indictment. that indictment was sealed by a federal judge, though, which is why we don't know the details of who is being charged with what. the "wall street journal" and others are reporting, though, that an arrest could be made as soon as monday. in terms of what these charges mean to the investigation, though, this afternoon, former justice department official robert driscoll said at this point there is not enough information to know. >> it depends on how collateral this indictment is to the kind of core issue of possible russian interference. i think it could be any number of things. if it is a one off kind of -- there could be false statements made to the fbi. it could be obstruction of justice that someone destroyed documents. those things could have an effect in terms of telling the other witnesses out there you better cooperate or else we will go after you. >> we do know over the last six months special counsel mueller's investigation has expanded to include areas and individuals

only tangentally related the russian interference. the home of former trump campaign chairman manafort was raided who was being investigated for money laundering an tax issues. last night his attorney told fox news neither he or anyone on his legal team had been informed of an indictment though which would normally happen if charges were filed. a statement was issued to fox news suggested a legal team hadn't been contacted about any charges either. as for michael flynn who is another target of the fbi's investigation, his attorneys have not responded to our request for comment. it's important to remember, though, that robert mueller was given very broad powers to investigate anything that comes up in the course of his investigation. so it's also entirely possible that these charges aren't at all related to russia's election meddling and they could come up only tangentally during the investigation but again those are just possibilities and we

should find out more early next week. arthel: thank you. eric: arthel, there are some new reports revealing more about what will add to the controversial trump dossier during the 2016 election. it's been revealed that a conservative website, well they first hired the political firm fusion gps during the republican primaries. the reason? to go through then candidate donald trump's background for negative information. that of course before the dnc and hilary clinton's campaign apparently paid for the dossier information during the general election. kristen fisher has more on this from the white house lawn. hi, kristen. >> hey, eric, the conservative website you are referring to is the washington free beacon. it announced yesterday that it is behind the initial hiring of that research firm, which then ultimately produced that new infamous dossier for democrats. and democrats say that this is nothing more than standard operating procedure for opposition research when you're in the middle of a tough presidential campaign. but the white house is calling

it collusion. >> congress has spent a great deal of time on this. a better part of a year. all of your news organizations have actually spent probably a lot of money on this as well, which we would consider probably a pretty big waste. i think that our position hasn't changed since day one. and i think we are seeing now that if there was any collusion, with russia, it was between the dnc and the clintons and certainly not our campaign. >> so president trump just returned to the white house from his golf course in va about an hour ago -- golf course in virginia about an hour ago. no plans for the rest of the weekend. the budget passed the house after passing the senate last week, laying the groundwork for a 1 1/2 trillion dollars tax cut, paving the way for tax reform. the administration's top priority. now the house ways and means committee is expected to introduce a bill sometime next week, and one of the big outstanding questions that still needs to be resolved is whether to reduce how much people can contribute to their 401(k)'s or

retirement savings account, pretax. so watch for that next week. and then there's also some positive numbers about the economy, and this morning, president trump was tweeting about it. he said, very little reporting about the great gdp numbers announced yesterday. 3% despite the big hurricane hits, best consecutive quarters if years -- in years. so on the surface president trump very positive, but at some level, at some point, hanging over his head, has to be the big news over the last 24 hours that this special counsel is planning to possibly arrest somebody, as early as monday, in its investigation into alleged collusion between the trump campaign and russia. eric? eric: we will see what happens. less than 48 hours to go on that. kristen, thank you. arthel: defense secretary jim mattis warning north korea that its military is no match for the u.s. south korean alliance. secretary mattis saying this at a joint press conference with his south korean counterpart

today where the general also said the threat of a north korean nuclear missile attack is accelerating. >> -- combined effort is to deter that sort of threat or to have military options, many different military options that would realistically reduce that threat as low as possible, and yes, we do have those options. >> defense secretary mattis adding the north is engaging in, quote, outlaw behavior, and that the u.s. would never accept the rogue regime as a nuclear power. eric: meanwhile, spain's government has imposed direct rule over a region, that after it declared its independence from spain. hundreds of people have been rallying in unity in barcelona. those people are opposed to the secession. demonstrations though on both sides. the spanish takeover, well, so

far, thankfully it's been peaceful. we have more from our london bureau. >> hi, eric. well the situation has escalated since the parliament declared independence yesterday with the spanish government responding by restoring direct rule over the region. it's dismissed the president from his position, but he shows no sign of backing down. today he's been speaking to supporters calling for a peaceful opposition to the spanish government. the spanish prime minister dissolved the parliament yesterday, following a vote by that parliament to formally declare independence. the spanish government says this is not a legal process. the independence vote sparked jubilation from pro independent supporters outside the parliament. there are real doubts, though, over whether this will ever become reality. european governments have refused to recognize an independent catalonia. but separatists argue a referendum held on october 1

legitimizes the independence. this is a divisive issue for spain and thousands of supporters of a unified country, also took to the streets yesterday. many saying they would continue to protest until the crisis is resolved. and no one knows what may come next, how exactly the spanish government may enforce control over catalonia but the government in spain says it believes the police in catalonia will respect the law. eric? eric: kitty, thank you. arthel: president trump vowing to release the remaining jfk files, the national archive unveiling nearly 3,000 documents about president kennedy's assassination this week, but the president withholding hundreds of files due to pressure from intelligence agencies over now national security concerns. the president now says the rest of the confidential records will soon be made public. will carr joining us live now from los angeles with more. hi, will. >> arthel, president trump says

that's because this is all about transparency in full disclosure, and it comes as we're still going through the 2800 pages of documents filled with espionage and cold war intrigue that were released thursday night. that includes a 64 fbi memo details discussions to assassinate fidel castro for $1,000. -- for $100,000. another document to create food shortage to ultimately remove castro from power. a memo from hoover expressed frustration that oswald was shot and killed after the fbi warned the dallas police department not once but twice about threats against oswald's life. the documents were released under a 92 law that mandated all files linked to the assassination be released this past week. >> i've had 22 outstanding university of virginia students

and several staffers working with me since this came out at 7:30 on thursday. we have not even gotten one eighth of the way through, so when people say what are the biggest surprises in this document trove? i can't answer. >> the remaining secret documents around 3,000 in all are being reviewed for redactions and could be released over the next six months. arthel: thank you. eric: this weekend has brought more attacks in mogadishu, explosions killing more than a dozen people today in somalia's capital. next we will tell you who is claiming credit for this latest attack. plus, a possible breakthrough in the investigation into russian interference in our presidential election. reports that the first indictment in the probe has been filed as some republicans are taking issue with this man and the funding of the mueller probe. we will have the very latest on this developing story, straight ahead.

remember that accident i got in with the pole, and i had to make a claim and all that? is that whole thing still dragging on? no, i took some pics with the app and... filed a claim, but... you know how they send you money to cover repairs and... they took forever to pay you, right? no, i got paid right away, but... at the very end of it all, my agent... wouldn't even call you back, right? no, she called to see if i was happy. but if i wasn't happy with my claim experience for any reason, they'd give me my money back, no questions asked. can you believe that? no. the claim satisfaction guarantee, only from allstate. switching to allstate is worth it.

eric: islamic militants storm somalia's capital killing at least 23 people so far. explosions and gunfire broke out in mogadishu today. the first bomb going off outside a popular hotel followed by two more blasts and gunfire. the al qaeda linked terrorist group al shabab claiming responsibility. this two weeks after a massive bomb killed more than 350 people in that city. arthel: a possible turning point in the investigation into russian election meddling. reports from the "wall street journal" and other media outlets shah special counsel -- outlets that special counsel robert mueller and his team have filed the first charges in their russia investigation and the first arrests could come as early as monday. meanwhile, conservative lawmakers, like iowa representative steve king are questioning the taxpayer funding

of mueller's investigation. king saying, quote, for them to say to us vote for an open ended appropriation into a mueller witch hunt i think you will see significant objection there. joining us now is a reporter for the hill. let's start here, melanie. when you first heard of the indictments, did you call your sources immediately, and what did they have to say? >> this is a really significant development. it sends shivers through washington. it hasn't even been 24 hours and already the speculation is rampant. but, look, i would say to trump's critics, don't pop the champagne just yet. not expecting this charge on monday to get at the heart of the investigation. you know, about meddling and collusion. we are expecting it to be more on the tax side and the financial crime side. if you remember, mueller was given very broad authority to explore anything that came up during the course of his investigation. it is very well that we could see something, you know, along the lines of money laundering, tax evasion.

it could also be something as simple as failure to, you know, fill out a security form properly or lying to investigators. we will have to wait and see what these charges are and who it is against on monday. arthel: absolutely. at this point, it is just speculation. we will do it here for the sake of this segment. who might be targeted, melanie, in this first indictment and depending on who, might they flip and where might the dominoes fall? >> right. i know two of the cases that are considered most advanced and farthest along are that of paul manafort and michael flynn as well. with manafort we have seen some recent developments. over the summer the fbi raided his home, that no knock raid. we know his realtor has also testified recently in the last couple of weeks. both of these men are facing financial questions about their investments -- investments and their properties. those are two of the likely targets we're expecting. look, it could also be a smaller fish. it could be someone -- a name we

haven't really heard floated yet. it is very possible that mueller could be trying to put some pressure on others to cooperate. he could be trying to get someone to flip on someone higher up on the food chain. perhaps he's targeting a family member. we know with michael flynn, his son has been exposed and possibly dragged into this as well. arthel: what does the timing signal as to how quickly or how slowly the mueller investigation will proceed? >> you know, the timing is really interesting here. i think this is a lot earlier than a lot of people expected. one take away for me, it signals that this is going to be a rolling investigation, and this is just the beginning. you know, i don't think we're going to see things wrapped up neatly with a little bow at the end of this and have this all at once. i think we can see more charges. i think that mueller is very probably sending a message with whatever comes out on monday. arthel: melanie, have you been reporting on the potential political fallout based on the mueller indictments to come? >> there could be some political

fallout on capitol hill. i would remind that this week is a very important week for republicans in terms of their tax reform effort. they had a ton of momentum after this weekend, after being able to pass the budget resolution to unlock, you know, this procedural method that will allow them to do it without democrats. and now these mueller charges are threatening to really suck up the oxygen in the room here. the last thing republicans want to be talking about on capitol hill especially this week is the russia investigation. so this could be a real problem for democrats and i expect that, you know, this question is going to come up for the white house as a briefing on monday as well. arthel: then if the president is again -- there's so many questions that are left unanswered at this point, but, you know, we don't know if in fact it would get to this point, if the president would pardon anyone, ultimately convicted, and if that would take hold of his agenda. >> right. i mean, certainly the president has pardoning powers. you know, i think it would be a real hornet's nest to dive into that issue, to just issue a

blanket pardon before, you know, someone is convicted or before charges are really brought against someone. we will have to wait and see on that. in terms of a response from the white house, and from republicans as well, i think what we can expect is to see them really shift towards clinton and the dnc and the new investigation into the deal that my colleagues at the hill have been reporting on, as well as the new revelations about the funding of the dossier and the fact that podesta and wasserman schultz both said that they didn't know that they were part of funding that research. i think there's a lot of questions that lawmakers have, and i expect those investigations will ramp up in the weeks ahead. arthel: we will see where everything goes of course. but before i let you go, finally, we started this segment with a quote from representative steve king from iowa, a conservative, calling this mueller investigation a witch hunt and a waste of taxpayer dollars. are you still hearing those types of -- that type of sentiment there on the hill? >> yes, absolutely.

from the lawmakers like steve king, they are really spoiling for a fight over this issue, and they have been ramping up their efforts to try to get control, put some restrictions on this budget, especially with this year end spending coming up in december, that's certainly an issue we could see crop up. i'm not certain how far it will go, though. i think the train has sort of left the station on that one. arthel: meanwhile possible 1.5 trillion added to the budget wrapped into the whole tax reform. >> yes, they have a lot going on. arthel: that's for sure. melanie zanona, thank you very much. >> thanks for having me. arthel: absolutely. eric: a chemical attack, the u.n. says the syrian government did it. but now more investigations are blocked by russia. so what is next for the war-torn country after the defeat of isis in raqaa? our next guest will tell us about the fate of his people. there's a new lead in the search for the possible serial killer in tampa, florida. police urging the public to try and help them find the murderer.

>> we are trying to get an idea of, you know, if there's someone in the area that may not be in the area, may not belong in the area. we want to know about it. ryone e everyone else. but on the inside, i feel chronic, widespread pain. fibromyalgia may be invisible to others, but my pain is real. fibromyalgia is thought to be caused by overactive nerves. lyrica is believed to calm these nerves. i'm glad my doctor prescribed lyrica. for some, lyrica delivers effective relief for moderate to even severe fibromyalgia pain. and improves function. lyrica may cause serious allergic reactions, suicidal thoughts or actions. tell your doctor right away if you have these, new or worse depression, unusual changes in mood or behavior, swelling, trouble breathing, rash, hives, blisters, muscle pain with fever, tired feeling, or blurry vision. common side effects: dizziness, sleepiness, weight gain, swelling of hands, legs and feet. don't drink alcohol while taking lyrica. don't drive or use machinery until you know how lyrica affects you.

those who've had a drug or alcohol problem may be more likely to misuse lyrica. with less pain, i can do more with my family. talk to your doctor today. see if lyrica can help.

arthel: the mueller probe into election meddling not the only russian investigation gaining steam on capitol hill. federal documents revealing what happened before an obama era nuclear deal with moscow that would later allow russia to control about 20% of the uranium mining in the u.s. now two house committees say they will investigate. caroline shively has more from washington. >> this week president trump called the uranium one deal a modern day watergate. here's the back story. uranium one is a canadian company but has operations that have access to 20% of the uranium production capacity in the u.s. in 2010, the obama administration allowed the sale of the company to russia's

atomic energy agency. secretary of state, hilary clinton, was one of nine members in the committee on foreign investments who allowed it, one of the several steps the deal had to go through. a newspaper reports that before the deal was completed the fbi had information that russian officials had used bribery and extortion to increase russia's nuclear interests here. at the same time the clinton foundation had received millions in donations from investors in uranium one. president trump says he's looking forward to hearing about testimony from a confidential fbi informant in the case, but democrats argue he improperly pushed the justice department to lift a gag order on the informant to do it, with the purpose of distracting from his own russia troubles. adam schiff, the ranking democrat on the house intelligence committee, released this statement: quote, the prospect of the president sought to intervene will now need to be a key part of the investigation to determine if improper political leverage was applied to target his political foe. now here's the white house. >> the president has pushed for

transparency if that's what you are referring to when dealing with congress. i know that's probably something new for a president to actually push for transparency, but that's what he's done. >> the two republican-led committees investigating the uranium one deal are the house oversight and intelligence committees. arthel? arthel: caroline shively, thank you. eric? eric: -- u.s. backed forces driving out militants from their stronghold in that self-proclaimed capital of their supposed caliphate in raqqa. it was a huge victory for the u.s. and allied forces. secretary of state says the syrian president al-assad must be the next to go. we have heard that before. the syrian dictator seems to have only been strengthened even as his regime is used of using -- accused of using chemical weapons on his own people. it killed 90 people in april.

at a meeting tillerson says quote the rein of the assad family is coming to an end. the only issue is how that will be brought about. will it? joining us is a member of the nonprofit syrian american council who has been fighting for his people. good to see you >> thanks for having me. eric: we have heard this before, the call for bashir al-assad to go. is that realistic? >> we have heard this before, but it absolutely is realistic. there is no future where syrians can live freely in syria with bashar al-assad. syrian refugees that are outside of the country want to return their homes and can't while assad is in power. eric: it seems assad only been strengthened by the military victories, only been strengthened by moscow and putin support and by tehran. >> yes, of course, iran has been a huge force for assad. in fact, iran is part of the problem right now with raqqa. if we leave raqqa alone right now, iran could -- it could

essentially become a very pro iran area and that's something we don't want to see happen. even though we have pushed out isis, the fight against isis right now is not over. we still need to be pushing forward. eric: what are you concerned about there? >> el with, i'm concerned -- well, i'll concerned about iran having a land bridge that goes from lebanon all the way to tehran. right now that's what they are actually building. they are right now literally at the moment in two fights on the west end, and they are attacking on one city on the west and one other city on the eastern side which would connect their bridge. we are trying to push against this right now. they don't have the resources they need. if they had a little bit of unity, there is an fsa brigade that is on the border of jordan right now. >> free syrian army. >> that's right. this fsa brigade was a pentagon trained brigade that is ready and willing have fought against iranian troops before and have won against them and are ready

to join in on the fight. eric: how is it possible when they are facing on one level i assad and on the other level they are facing iranian backed troops? >> that's not forget russia from the air. -- let's not forget iran from the air. he has iran in the air and iran on the ground as his army. eric: he's getting backed on all sides. >> we need to show a strong use of force and we need to show -- there's been some chatter within congress and even some people from the administration that i have heard have said hey, let's ink a deal with russia to try and get iran out of syria. well, that's not going to be something that's possible. even general mcmaster has said that is not -- that's impossible to happen.

the ties with russia and iran and syria are way too strong. eric: when you say use of force, do you mean american troops or allied troops? >> i think both of them. honestly our first step should be bombing the iranian militias and to show how serious we are about defeating isis, about how serious we are about pushing iran's influence out of the middle east. i heard just last week the iranian ambassador said this is our region, america should stop meddling in it. this is not your region. this is syrian land. this is for the syrians. why are you occupying syrian land? eric: are you concerned, though, if america targets iranian troops, i mean, man that could start a wider war? >> well, honestly these are not iranian troops. these are iranian militias, and so that's another thing is in fact we don't have sanctions on the iranian militias.

you know, we've put sanctions on hezbollah, but we need to put also put sanctions on these iranian militias. it is amazing we haven't. i know a representative has said that's something he wants to see happen and the representative also brought up in a subcommittee this past week about a huge siege that the assad regime has been raining down -- >> he's been using starvation as a weapon of war, babies starved to death, people starved to death. >> yes, it is terrible. i know the representative had even tweeted out photos about those babies and again, it goes back to iran. on march 24th, iran had shut down -- there was a push for a route out of -- but iran actually is the one who stepped in and shut that down.

they are just as responsible for this as assad is. >> the humanitarian aspect, the catastrophe is unbelievable. then you add on top of that, what happened at the u.n. this week. the united nations had the investigation into the chemical attack, they said that the syrian government bashar al-assad's regime did it, and russia raised their hand and vetoed for more investigations. let me show you what was said about that. >> in 2013, president putin committed to ensuring syria dismantled its chemical weapons program. we're gravely disappointed that in spite of this, russia continues to block action on chemical weapons use in syria through its vetoes. eric: he's blaming russia. blaming vladimir putin right there. >> putin is responsible frankly. the russians have time and time and time again come ahead and backed assad and said hey, look,

any sort of u.n. resolution, any -- anything that puts any blame on assad for using chemical weapons, they are going to veto. they are going to sit there and they are going to say hey, this isn't happen. they are trying to erase history is what they do. >> it makes a mockery of international order when this happens. finally, how do you think this will play out? these who don't see assad leaving immediately, not enough pressure, your people, the country syria has suffered so much and been an unbelievable catastrophe. >> syria used to be a beautiful country. it's becoming war-torn. the people of syria want to see an end to this war. eric: do you think there will be a day when assad will be gone? >> absolutely. i'm very -- i'm very positive about that. i understand that assad is in the moment trying to push strongly to have iran come in and back him and really push out any sort of syrian opposition. i can tell you, just this past weekend, there was a syrian

american forum in washington, d.c., and we saw revitalized energy coming out of the syrian opposition. the top leaders, people who are ready to take hold of syria. there's financial backing to rebuild syria. there are -- we have all the resources. we have the manpower. we have the people ready to rebuild syria as a free, democratic pluralistic society and that's what syrians want to see. eric: the peace talks would resume again in geneva and for many of those who support your cause, that's certainly the hope. thank you for coming in this afternoon. >> thank you. arthel: the world series is heating up as the houston astros look to extend their two game to one lead over the l.a. dodgers tonight this as major league baseball comes down on one of last night's houston heroes for his racist gesture during the game. a live report ahead. plus the president declaring

the opioid epidemic a public health emergency, but is that enough to fight this national crisis? >> we owe it to our children and to our country to do everything in our power to address this national shame and this human tragedy. we must stop the flow of all types of illegal drugs into our communities. give up, skeletor! you're finished! curse you, he-man, you interfering imbecile! give us one good reason we shouldn't vanquish you to another dimension! ok, guys, hear me out. switching to geico could save you... hundreds on car insurance. huh, he does make a point... i do like to save money... catch you on the flip, suckas! geico. because saving fifteen percent or more on car insurance is always a great answer.

eric: tampa police are releasing some new video in their effort to try and catch a possible serial killer. they are searching for a new person of interest who they believe could be connected to three unsolved killings in the same neighborhood this month. investigators asking the public to try and help identify the person. >> we think that there's somebody in the neighborhood who knows who that is and we are appealing to them at this point to please give us a call. eric: bryan llenas has been following this disturbing story. >> the neighborhood in tampa

understandably on edge after three murders in a ten-day stretch, all within a half mile of one another in tampa, and police believe it's all the work of the same killer. the fbi continues to assist in the search for the murderer. all week, from sundown to sunrise, a group of 20 volunteers from the guardian angels, an anticrime organization has been patrolling the neighborhood, helping to keep ease for these residents who fear potential serial killer could be on the loose. investigators continue their own patrols, surveying neighbors, and looking for more surveillance video. >> i feel better knowing that they are out here. i feel better knowing that they're exhausting every lead that they have, that they are seeking as much information as they can and analyzing it to the best of their ability, vehicles, occupation stuff. >> today the funeral held for the third victim on your screen on your right on your screen, 20-year-old, he was mildly autistic and got off at the

wrong bus stop when he was gunned down on october 19th, just blocks away from where 22-year-old benjamin mitchell was shot and killed waiting for a bus on october 9th. two days after that, a 32-year-old woman was also murdered. the police tell us they have received 144 tips on thursday alone, the day they released this new surveillance video of a quote person of interest. the video was taken of the night of the first murder on october 9th. it shows a man walking with a hoodie and then moments later running in the opposite direction on a street close to the scene and at about the same time as the murder of benjamin mitchell. police zeroing in particularly on a potential tell here from the man's right hand. you can see he's seen flipping his cell phone. police believe it could be a habit that could help identify the person in this video. the interim police chief says this person could be the key to solving these murders but is not necessarily a suspect, though he asks, if you are not the killer, why not come forward already? lots of questions in a community

on edge. eric? eric: interesting question considering that surveillance video. thank you. arthel: a chilling new report shows the number of u.s. overdose deaths involving opioids jumped a whopping 21% last year. it comes just as president trump this week declared the crisis a national public health emergency. the president not releasing any more public funding to fight it, but saying in a speech, that the government is already districting nearly a -- already distributing a nearly a billion dollars in grants to battle the epidemic and that the focus should now be on getting the right message out to young people. >> the fact is, if we can teach young people and people generally, not to start, it's really, really easy not to take them. and i think that's going to end up being our most important thing, really tough, really big, really great advertising. arthel: dr. radcliffe is a

private practice anesthesiologist is joining us now on this important topic. how did we get here? >> usually starts off with a legitimate pain. when you come into see me and you have pain, as a doctor, it is any passion to help you and treat you. it can be arthritis, lower back pain. i want to give you something for that and often times that has been an opioid prescription. the problem is they are addictive. after a certain period of time, when your tolerance goes up, you need more or your doctor says enough is enough. you may turn to get it by illegally on the street from pills on the street, and when that gets expensive, people unfortunately turn to heroin which is an iv medication. arthel: should there be regulations placed on how much and how often doctors prescribe opioids? >> that's what the whole culture of change. there's an awareness that's going about where a number of societies and organizations there is a call to see how did we get in this, what can we do differently? we know just five days can cause addiction. arthel: you're an anesthesiologist.

>> i do. arthel: you know very well about what drugs do to the body. i'm asking you, what's the alternative? why is it that's the first go to? if i come to you and you have knocked me out so to speak and i'm having some sort of surgery and my doctor says you are going to have an opioid. what's the alternative? >> we need to change the culture, look at nonaddictive options for pain relief. i have to say, it is working. i have patients coming to me all the time saying what else can i do? i don't want to get dabted -- i don't want to get addicted. do you have something else for me? >> do you? >> we do. we don't have all the answers yet. we need to continue doing it. as a healthcare profession, as an anesthesiologist, this is what we're look at, different ways to treat it, nerve block, tylenol, ibuprofen, things that are not as harmful or addictive to patients. >> i know you can ask for nonopioid medications if you are in the hospital. >> absolutely. we know it takes just five days to cause addiction arthel: often times, doctor,

people succumb to the grips of addiction because of shame. they are afraid to seek help for fear of being judged. for that reason, how effective could a public service ad campaign and declare public health emergency be and, you know, you heard the president talk about it, he says first of all, don't start. but he says, we need to talk about this. how helpful could this be? if people bring this to the light? >> want to take away the stigma of it. the more you talk about it, you shouldn't be ashamed about it. public ad campaigns do work. look at what happened with seat belts. antismoking. doesn't happen overnight but it takes decades and time. we need to do this and start now. the best way to deal with the problem is to prevent it in the the first place. we want to aim at everyone in general. if you do have a problem, to not think i'm going to lose my job, my family, lose everything, but there has to be other ways to deal with. arthel: once people realize that they are not the only one, if you suspect that your child, although i would imagine any

parent dealing with this they don't care about what people think, they want to help save their child. you know, but again, there is that stigma, and people do judge. it can happen to anybody. >> it can happen to anybody. arthel: don't judge. >> absolutely. i had a patient just a few weeks back, she has breast cancer and she's addicted. she was using the same access that we're giving her chemotherapy to shoot up iv heroin. she had an infection going all through her body. this affects people almost daily in my practice. arthel: we talked about this a bit, in terms of alternative drugs. a lot of people don't even know what -- that they're even taking opioids. what drugs are considered opioids? >> anything that's a narcotic, anything with codeine, anything with fentanyl, there's a number of different things. what i encourage patients, do your research. ask your doctor what are you prescribing? arthel: for instance you said medications with codeine or fentanyl, is that right? >> uh-huh. arthel: how do i know what that is? the name brands. what is it called? >> well, there are always

derivatives, codeine, oxi codeine -- oxy codeine, different types of medications. you can go on-line and research. you want to ask questions when you are getting care. our doctors, healthcare providers, we are wanting to answer this. i want to put this in perspective. the opioid epidemic has been a silent epidemic for decades. i join with many others thanking president trump for finally taking decisive action. this is something that has not been spoken about. he is finally speaking out. this is the first step. people may be criticizing but he is the first president to speak out about this. this has been going on for decades. it is not going to be one thing to solve this entire problem and people are focusing on the ad campaign. there's many other facets to what he's proposing. arthel: always good to see you. >> great to see you. >> thank you very much. eric: houston is looking to make world series history tonight. and the astros, can they take control if they win game four? we will have a preview of what to expect in the big game, just

hours from now.

eric: the astros now leading the world series over the dodgers two games to one. houston winning two games in a row at home after losing game one in los angeles. so a big night tonight if they

win they can take control. we are live at the park in houston to preview tonight's game. what can we expect? >> eric, astros fans certainly hoping that the team's bats keep going as they have. the astros have outhit the dodgers 26-9 in winning the last two games. last night the first time ever astros fans got to watch their team in a world series game right here at minute maid park. the astros scored four runs in the second inning on darvish who had the shortest start of his career whether it be the play-offs or the regular season. and the dodgers are now down two games to one. we have spoken with many astros fans today, many get emotional when talking about baseball and what this astros team means to them and their families. >> my pops died at 55. i'm 54. i wish he was here with me. we went to a few games in town. we went to a lot of games. but now i tell my son, let's go.

but he's working. but he notified me today. he said he's off tomorrow and monday. i said if we win tonight, i will buy you a ticket. you come down here and visit us. i'm hoping that comes through and then we can be together, you know, like possibly my father and i could have been. >> boy, what a special night for fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, baseball always connected. not all good news for the astros. yuli gurriel who hit a home run in the second inning has been suspended for five games without pay to start next season. he will be able to play in the rest of this world series, but he made a racially insensitive gesture last night towards the japanese pitcher of the dodgers. the astros leased a statement saying -- released a statement saying they are surprised by the behavior and that baseball and the astros pride themselves on diversity in the sport. yu y >> he says he wants to

personally apologize. meanwhile just quickly, it's so special, 55 years and never won a world series, the astros, what does that really mean to the fans? >> -- >> i guess he can't hear me. we will have to get back to him. he's at minute maid park, thank you very much. that's why it is america's favorite past time. fantastic. can't make it up. baseball is like life. you are up one minute. you are down one minute. i mean it is fantastic game. arthel: okay. take me out to the ballgame. a possible huge break in the special counsel mueller's investigation. we will have more at the top of the hour.

a fox news alert. a possible turning point in the investigation into russian election meddling. with special counsel, robert mueller reportedly filing the first charges in the investigation into possible collusion between the chum campaign and russia. hello everyone i am arthel neville. welcome to a brand-new hour inside of "americas news headquarters".>> hello everyone i am eric shawn. according to the wall street journal and other media list the first arrest could come as early as monday.but who could it be? we have more now with garrett.

>> prosecutors have been presenting evidence to a grand jury in washington.according to the wall street journal yesterday the jury proved the first charges in the special counsel investigation for the special counsel office decline our request for comment. they told the paper the indictment was ordered and we do not know if the charges are who is it being indicted. and if it is more one person that is facing now charges. robert mueller's team has been conducting a wide-ranging investigation into russia's election meddling. that included several former aides of the president trump. this morning on fox and friends the former chum campaign chairman lewandowski said that he did not think anyone close to the campaign will ultimately be charged. >> this is nothing to do at present. if there were bad plays in the outside, that had a periphery or a small role in some tip of a campaign, my guess is the

charges have nothing to do with the campaign. there is no collusion, cooperation or coordination with russia. let's see what happens. the only thing freaking is the democrats. >> earlier this summer the fbi agents raided the home of the former trump campaign chairman paul manifort who is allegedly -- last night's man affords attorney said that they were not informed. and then carter page was also a person of interest in the investigation issued a statement the fox is suggesting his legal team had not been contacted about charges either. investigators have also been looking into president trump's point of national security advisor michael flynn over allegations he attempted to work with russian hackers during the election to get copies of hillary clinton's emails. at this point his attorneys have not responded to our

request for comments. and though, the wall street journal and others are reporting that the person or persons who have been charged be taken into custody as it is monday and we will and a lot more at that point. >> thank you we will be looking at this.>> we are learning more about what eventually led to the controversial trump dossier. reports regarding a conservative website hired fusion gps during the republican primaries to investigate then candidate trump for negative information. we have this story with kristin fisher live at the white house. >> this research firm was ultimately produced the dossier was first hired by republicans. but we did not know was the exact source. now we know that the source was a conservative website, we know that because this is what the free told the house intelligence committee. just yesterday. so now, the white house is continuing to say that this is simply evidence of the fact that it was ultimately funded

by the dnc. that this is evidence of collusion between the clinton campaign and russia and of course, all of this is coming out at the exact same time that the special counsel investigation into collusion of the chum campaign in russia is heating up as well. >> we think that we are continuing to see day in and day out the investigation moves to completion as the same as it started. there is still no evidence of collusion between the president and anyone. any collision took place will be between the dnc and the clintons. i think we are starting to see that the democrats had accused the president of, they were actually guilty of themselves. >> now the president spent the day in his golf course in virginia and despite reports he is very pleased that this week the house passed the budget paving the way for tax reform.

his top legislative priority. he is also pleased by what he is seeing in the economy. specifically the three percent gdp growth that was announced just yesterday. and also on the horizon, the president's pick for chairman. >> i have somebody very specific in mind. i think everybody will be very impressed. most importantly, i think at the end of eight years, he really will be impressed because things are looking good. they look good for the country, and never looking good for the country's economy. >> the president really building up this here. really one of the biggest decisions any president can make.and the president says he will make it sometime next week. >> the president is excellent at building suspense for sure! thank you kristen. >> and a tough line from spain's government. taking direct control of catalonia. after it declared independence from spain. hundreds have been hitting the streets in the capital of

barcelona. they have been railing for unity. so far demonstrations are peaceful. we have more from the london bureau. >> the situation has escalated the parliament declared independence yesterday. with the spanish government responding by restoring direct rule of the region.the president was removed from his position he shows no sign of backing down. today he is been speaking to supporters calling for a peaceful opposition to the spanish government.the spanish prime minister went to pro-men yesterday following the book by the parliament to formally declare independence. they say this is not a legal process. the independent vote showed jubilation from independent voters.there are real tough so over whether this will ever

become reality. the european governments have refused to recognize an independent catalonia. a referendum held legitimizes independence. this is a divided issue for spain and thousands of unified country subject to the streets yesterday. many spins they will continue to protest until the crisis is resolved.no one knows what may come next. how exactly the space government may enforce control over catalonia. but the government in spain says the police and catalonia will respect the law. >> think you so much. >> vice president mike pence visiting air force base crucial to the nuclear preparedness. tensions escalating between the us and north korea. the warning he had for the rogue regime. plus, a look at areas slammed by super storm sandy five years ago tomorrow as the rebuilding still continues today. >> i did not think that it

a stark warning to north korea to never doubt america's military power. company the vice president of the cases north dakota senator john hogan.this in the senate homeland security committee cochair of the senate air force caucus and former governor of the state. welcome, thank you for being with us tonight. >> we think of b-52s, and a lot of people think about the cold war in the 1950s and 1960s. i've this has been a key of our defense on the front lines especially when you're facing threats of kim jong-un. >> as he heard it is the only dual nuclear face in this country with b-52 bombers which have conventional and nuclear capabilities as well as the icbm missiles. as you heard from the vice president, they are doing just

an amazing job and only was he there were also air force secretary wilson and their is a model over the front gate at the air force base and is is only the fast come north. many women there is been amazing. leftist flying missions in victorian and five near the korean sheila but otherwise -- not just near the korean peninsula but elsewhere as well. >> we have seen the video peter went to the airmen and their women tell you about north korea, the mission and how they feel about the threats that were given facing faith.>> our deterrent is peace through strength. they represent the strength and don't visit better than they do. we have been constantly improving the nuclear triad. not only the submarine piece but also the bombers and icbms.

all of the adversaries have to understand that we want peace but it is peace through strength. will stand up to our adversaries stand up for our allies. >> this is blackbirds, the b-52s. some of them are older than we are but they are still, we still keep them flying. and they certainly are a message to kim jong-un and his regime did this with the vice president also said when he visited yesterday. >> now more than ever, your commander-in-chief is depending on you to be ready. stay sharp, mind your mission, and your airmen. and being that credible deterrent that has assured the security of the american people for generations. brave men of the air force base may be called on to be the instrument of american power. >> certainly does not want war and we want to post a mistake to continue but this is another one in the arsenal.

>> the vice president was there with the secretary of the air force calmly for the secretary of defense there as recently as well. and that is to support the mission and the great men and women living the missing also to send a very fair message to adversaries whether north korea or iran that is very serious, we are phrases resolved and very strong and when we negotiate, we need to be taking, taken seriously peace through strength. >> since some of the threats from north korea, the amount launched a ballistic missile recently. we thought that they would l'enfant towards guam. they think the presence tough talk that was criticized and other support, to think that that has deterred north koreans in some way with their calculation? >> as you know, the president intends to go over to south korea and the dmz. again, this is a making sure that people understand that we want peace, that we are fair-minded. but that we are also strong.

that is what makes north is plummeted if the end result. we mean what we say. >> the president will embark on the trip to asia. he cannot go to the dmz, james mattis was at the dmz yesterday. but how do you think the triple play out and you think both effective to give a strong message to kim jong-un? >> i think it is. and again, i think that is rights of the vice president come to minot air force base. it is about sending a clear message and making sure we do everything that we can to turn north korea's nuclear ambitions. >> i do think that this will play out? >> i think that it is out as a result. that we are offering peace, we are negotiating in a fairway. but that we will stand with our allies and as i mentioned earlier, we mean what we say. >> when you respond without and with i mean you look governor missed it. there are remarkable men and

women in detail with this international challenge. >> thank you for saying that because the simply side of the sacrifice of the men and women that service in uniform. their families, the sacrifices that they make. obviously in many cases the ultimate sacrifice. and these men and women we are talking about at minot air force base, they are not only meeting on the requirements for sustaining nuclear mission at home which requires so much and serving in the cream peninsula, but they are a big part of our defeating isis right now. in the middle east. >> listed earlier, they rotated their and as he said, it is remarkable the dedication that they have and when you consider what we face, you are right to be proud them and for your state. and for what they do on behalf of our country. senator john hoeven of north dakota and all of the men and women at the minot air force base? thank you. i'm sure i speak for all of the

mueller probe into the 2016 election interference is not the only russian investigation making news on capitol hill. federal documents are revealing what happened leading up to the controversial obama administration era uranium to let moscow appear which as you know eventually gave a russian company control of 20 percent of american uranium deposits. now, to house committees say they are launching a joint investigation. we have more on uranium washington.>> this week the president called the uranium one deal a modern-day watergate. this is the back story. uranium one is a canadian company has operations of access to 20 percent of the uranium production capacity in the us.in 2010 the obama administration of the sale of

the company to russia's atomic energy agency. secretary of state, hillary clinton was one of my members of the committee on foreign investment that allowed it. one of several steps the deal had to go through. the newspaper reports that before the deal is completed the fbi had information that russian officials have used bribery and extortion to increase russia's nuclear interest fear. at the same time the clinton foundation had received millions of donations from investors uranium one. the president said he was looking forward to hearing testimony in the case with democrats argued that he is pushing the ãfriendship come ranking democrat on the house intelligence committee released a statement of prospect that the of the event thought to interview will become a part of the investigation. now here's the white house. because the present has pushed

for transparency. that is what you are referring to end zone with congress that i know is probably something new for a president to push for transparency. that's what he has done. >> with the republican-led committee investigating is house oversight committee. >> thank you. >> i will get tax reform. the chairman brady is dedicated and committed to do this. we have to do it the right way. >> i was new york congressman dan donovan. one of the 20 house republicans that voted against the budget this week. the house to pass the budget for just four votes. fairly caringly for tax reform. publicans now sending ambitious timelines to get the bill passed and lawmakers like donovan are raising concerns about the plan. he says that he wants his constituents to get the tax they deserve. >> there is a philosophy town in washington that we are being

subsidized by the federal government allowing this deduction. in fact, new york is a donor state. for every dollar we spend we only get 79 offensive dollars spent. >> now spring in the senior editor for roll call, david, always good to talk to. we will start here, the bumpy or smooth path forward. what lawmakers are willing to give a little bit, we'll talk about them and what is they are wanting return and is in the realm of possibility? >> my questions there. it will be a bumpy road for sure. if this was the easy one, the vote to even paved the way for the tax cut is with the what is on this week. the purpose of budget was essentially to create a speedy process. getting a tax cut through congress, some people remember

this happen during healthcare. the idea that you cannot filibuster the healthcare bill in the senate so it could have been free pass with just republican foxbusiness for this past week was the same thing to do. so it could pass on party lines. we should note here that directly since world war ii, no effects that has passed entirely along party lines. most of them have been with big bipartisan support.that does not seem the way it is shaping up now. it seems that the president and republican leadership want to do this just for the republican votes. have a very narrow margin for error. as we saw in obamacare in the senate and as we saw this week with 20 republicans saying no comments to the idea of a text because they fear that this one provision to do with the deductibility of state and local taxes. >> right. so what happens then david went lobster in the mix.>> exactly fear not just one lobbyist but virtually, every lobbyist in the country.

if accepted folk about, the tax bill is not just a tax cut but they are talking about overhauling the tax, the whole tax code and doing so very quickly. we are supposed to release the bill on wednesday. so far we only have the big bullet points and big things. lobbyists are clamoring to find out all of the fine print. there will be thousands of lobbyists, everyone in the economy will be affected by this. every lobbyist in town will be affected by this. they will all want something to trade for one thing or another. and if that happened on just this one issue, the idea of potentially this tax cut being paid for by eliminating the deductibility of state and local taxes, prompted are present. imagine what happens when there are dozens of similar proposals. >> and as we have been saying, house republicans narrowly passed the senate budget resolution thursday which would allow tax reform to increase

the deficit by 13 5 trillion dollars over 10 years. so there is that, plus there are unresolved issues. apart from what you were talking about with lobbyists would be looking at the fine print, there are unresolved issues that linger. talk about those requests there are lots of resolved issues. as i said, the deductible state and local taxes. places like new york and new jersey particularly where most of the votes against the four republicans from new york and new jersey. those are high tax states, so is california where they pay a lot of state and local taxes. if you live in windows that you can take what you pay from the state or local government off your taxes. that is a big deal.how much you can contribute with tax advantages for the 401(k) retirement plan is another huge deal. that is one area in which the president himself and the republican leadership also seem at odds. the president signals he does not think the limitation should be increased. the republicans say we have to

cough with some sort of offsetting way to save ourselves within that $1.5 trillion price tag.that might have to be one. as i said, there will be dozens of other ones on everything from general contributions, you name it. anything in the thousand page rulebook in the irs, we don't know exactly how many of those will tweak. each one will be a fight. >> and lawmakers will be looking out for their folks, the constituents in the middle class. >> that's right. and we haven't even talked about the democrats. the democrats are just sitting back and waiting. they are saying that they always say which is that anytime the republicans tried to cut taxes, this day is about the middle class but always end up being traffic that is the simple message. we'll see if they stick spent of any show interest in cutting a deal here. >> there are lots of deals to be made possibly, still some provision in place regarding tax reform. this ultimately be a single party law if fast? >> and that is certainly the way it is looking right now.

i think the best bet is that if the republicans for right now come the democrats will sit back and say, he republicans, this is your idea, you figure it out. they figured out then they can prove that they can pass the bill entirely with republican votes, and maybe the moderate conservative democrats especially in the senate, that are in tough reelection fights next year, if it was that the bill will pass anyway maybe a couple of those democratic senators from north dakota, west virginia, indiana for example, might bite yes. and missouri fourth. >> saw that chuckle boarding if you will. will that get in the way david, they finalize building on the president's desk by the end of the year? >> that is an incredibly good question. there text by doing this with incredible speed. comparisons of the big bills of any kind, let alone a textbook

of the president wants the sun by the end of the year. there really are only seven weeks of legislating left in the year after wednesday p wednesday, november 1 is when the house wants to put this out. there is no deadline, it is not like there's some sort of deadline for tax bills having done. it can get done anytime in the next year essentially. but the republicans think and the president to think that doing it fast is in her best interest. the faster they move, the less the lobbyists can get their way. the president of course is really eager for a big legislative three and 2017. the converse both ways. can cause explosions to happen all the more quickly and this think just totally stopped. >> that is a whole bunch. david, thank you for picking it down. >> thinking.>> the president filing to release the remaining files that have been kept secret about john f. kennedy. they released is about what

happened on that fateful day in 19 three. but the president of held hundreds of files due to pressure from intelligence agencies for what they say were national security concerns. the presence of the rest of the records will sing the made public in his facing a deadline for the real live in los angeles with the very latest. there are no paper functions expected by, this is fascinating to see what they have in with a big keeping secret all these years. all of the speculation that has been coming up. >> that's right still a lot of questions out there. and in a to the president said that releasing the documents is all about transparency and full disclosure. this comes as 2000 pages apartments that are really filled with espionage and cold war intrigue were released on thursday night. that includes a 1960 fbi memo detailing discussion to assess safety for castro for $100,000. another document revealed proposals the jfk

administration to create food shortages and feedback, rebellion and ultimately remove castro from power. dellimore directly jfk's assassination a cia memo outlined the call was intersected from lee harvey oswald to the russian embassy in mexico. >> i've had 22 outstanding university of virginia students and several staffers working with me since this came out at 730 on, what was it? thursday? can we have not given time one eigth of the way through. so when people say, what are the biggest surprises in this document? i cannot answer! >> the documents were released under 1992 law that it'd all files likely assassination be released this past week. there are still roughly around 3000 of not been released but that could happen over the next six months because oswald spent six days in mexico city prior

to the assassination. who he met with, what he did, if there was anyone else where he was influenced by meeting human diplomats or others we will see.>> we will see what is in there. request looking forward to it. >> speaking investigation, a major break in the investigation into possible collision between the for campania and russia. filing charges. but we are learning. in houston looking to make world series history. can the astros take control by winning game number four tonight? you have a preview of what to expect. that is coming up next. heck every six months i'm accident-free. and i don't share it with mom. right, mom? right. safe driving bonus checks, only from allstate. switching to allstate is worth it.

only from allstate. with some big news about type 2 diabetes. you have type 2 diabetes, right? yes. so let me ask you this... how does diabetes affect your heart? it doesn't, does it? actually, it does. type 2 diabetes can make you twice as likely to die from a cardiovascular event, like a heart attack or stroke. and with heart disease, your risk is even higher. you didn't know that. no. yeah. but, wait, there's good news for adults who have type 2 diabetes and heart disease. jardiance is the only type 2 diabetes pill with a lifesaving cardiovascular benefit. jardiance is proven to both significantly reduce the chance of dying from a cardiovascular event in adults who have type 2 diabetes and heart disease and lower your a1c. jardiance can cause serious side effects including dehydration. this may cause you to feel dizzy, faint, or lightheaded, or weak upon standing. ketoacidosis is a serious side effect that may be fatal.

symptoms include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, tiredness, and trouble breathing. stop taking jardiance and call your doctor right away if you have symptoms of ketoacidosis or an allergic reaction. symptoms of an allergic reaction include rash, swelling, and difficulty breathing or swallowing. do not take jardiance if you are on dialysis or have severe kidney problems. other side effects are sudden kidney problems, genital yeast infections, increased bad cholesterol, and urinary tract infections, which may be serious. taking jardiance with a sulfonylurea or insulin may cause low blood sugar. tell your doctor about all the medicines you take and if you have any medical conditions. so now that you know all that, what do you think? that it's time to think about jardiance. ask your doctor about jardiance. and get to the heart of what matters. ask back now to one of our top

>> we don't even know who it is or what it is. there is speculation paul manifort, questions about his finances, his lobbying, the sort of thing the fbi agents reportedly banged into his house and got files and computer and stuff. the her general michael flynn and apparently his son who there was speculation about lobbying. so could be something as simple as not registering as a foreign agent or lobbying financial income tax stuff. it is the simple stuff from you is that firstly. >> it is to speculate.but i can tell you one thing from having tracked the russians for many years and lived in moscow for five years, russian intelligence services and vladimir putin in particular are really enjoying this. i asked the spec policy they are seeing all of the media. and seeing for this i think is there any game. it is very much what they would have conducted and hoped for.
