now she sends invoices, sees when they've been viewed and-ta-dah-paid twice as fast for free. visit quickbooks-dot-com. robert mueller's team getting closer to trump's inner circle as white house communication director is questioned by investigators. welcome to brand-new hour of inside america's news headquarters, i'm arthel neville. eric: and i'm eric sean. hope hicks about attempts of russian operatives to contact her. meanwhile you know the fbi director christopher ray was grilled by republican lawmakers over the agency's fairness in the russian probe. >> there is no finer institution

than the fbi, no finer people than the men and women who work there and are its very beating heart. >> fall you should a lot of criticism and scrutiny from critics about the pope's impartiality, kristin fisher live in washington with much more on what we can expect. hi, christian. >> yesterday special counsel mueller filed for evidence against manafort, word document with prosecutors claim is proof that manafort had ghost-written op-ed with colleague who they claim has ties to russian intelligence. they argued it's a clear violation of the gag order but manafort's attorney say that he merely proof-read the op ed an did not violate the judge's order and was exercising his free speech rights to defend himself. also yesterday, we learned that white house communication director hope ricks was

interviewed by mueller's team, the new york times is reporting that she was also warned by the fbi that russian operatives were trying to contact her. there's zero evidence that hicks herself did anything improper, they were just alarmed by the boldness of the russian operatives specially since this was after the u.s. intelligence committee had came out and as mueller closes in the president's inner circle there's question about fairness and impartiality of people on his team. according to wall street your honor andrew, top deputies was at hillary clinton's election night party in new york city and this comes right around the same time that another fbi investigator in the special counsel's office, peter was removed from the russia probe for allegedly sending antitrump text messages. here is republican congressman jim jordan. >> he gets kicked off for a text

message that's antitrump. if you kick everybody off of mueller's team that was antitrump, there won't be anybody left. there has to be something more here. >> the democrats argue that the attacks are a sign that the special counsel is doing job. >> i predict they will grow louder as special counsel does work and the walls close in around the president and evidence of his obstruction and other misdeeds become more apparent. >> up next manafort and rick gates will be back in court on monday morning, you know, one thing is for sure, though, that hoping that this could be wrapped up but certainly doesn't look like it's going to be wrapped up by the deadline, eric arthel: nearing end and election days away, democrat doug jones,

roy moore campaigning hard in the final stretch but moore getting a listel boost from the president. mr. trump telling pensacola, florida that they should get out and vote for roy moore. >> democrats in congress want open borders, taxes and government-run health care that doesn't work, cost a fortune and doesn't work, they are soft on crime and they want to suffocate our economy with socialist-style regulation, raise your taxes through the sky, they don't want to vote for our tax cuts because they want tax increases. >> jonathan is live in montgomery, alabama, so the weather is cold down there, jonathan but the race is red hot. [laughter] >> that is for sure, arthel, major position, arthel, roy moore did not appear with the president at last night's rally

but certainly enjoying some of the comments that the president made regarding this red-hot senate race here in alabama, moore has been tweeting quotes from the president's speech and sharing links to articles from the event as campaign approaches final day moore is trying to rally his conservative base with new ads focusing on social issues. >> judge roy moore will stand for the rights of the unborn. >> i'm a mom and i carry to protect my family, judge roy moore will stand for the second amendment. >> roy moore, the right choice. >> but a political action committee called stand up republic is running antimoore tv ads in the birmingham, alabama television market, these ads are targeting voters who identify as republican and christian, watch. >> what he has done and what he stands for makes us republicans an us christians look bad.

>> now the moore campaign dismisses the ad as product of prohillary super pac, beverly nelson, she added some of her own handwriting to a note that she claims moore wrote in her high school year book. >> the truth is out there and until she release it is year book, all we know is they're not telling the truth and they've lied. >> now, nelson claims that she was simply writing the date and location that moore signed her year book so she could remember later on. now her lawyer gloria allerd say that is the expert has determined that the rest of that note in the year book matches roy moore's handwriting, arthel. >> we will take it back here in new york. eric: on the other side democratic doug jones is facing

moore work to go get democratic supporters out on tuesday, polling data shows ha he is neck and neck with mr. moore, peter doocy with the latest from the jones camp, hi, peter. >> hi, eric, the democrat who is down in polls here phoned in some famous friends from the democratic party national to come down to alabama and talk him up today, we just saw doug jones with his first visitor former massachusetts governor devalt patrick and joan talks about why he thinks patrick is a good surrogate for the race. >> the people that are going to come today have issues that we have in common with the people of alabama. i don't think you can say that about some of the people that are coming in from -- on the other side. >> we just got a taste of the attack jones next guest plans to bring new jersey senator cory booker tweeted in response to a reporter who posted something that moore said protesting

transparency genders in the u.s. military and booker wrote this, well, i'm in the united states senate and i don't want to be next to you wondering if senate pages will be safe from your advances, your bigotry, ignorance and hate has no place in the senate, i'm going to my ancestral home of alabama to lend a hand in defeating you. that comment from an out of state guest does come just days after the jones campaign blasted roy moore's team for importing steve bannon and at the time the jones team said there's no place for out of state agitators in this race. jones campaign is pushing hard today on conservative claims that he favors late-term abortions but the democratic nominee remains pro-choice candidate and pro-life state, he has three events scheduled today, selma, montgomery and then birmingham tonight and he remains about 3 and a half points behind -- in the real clear politics average of polls behind the republican who has no events today, eric. eric: all right, peter, 72 hours

to go, thanks. arthel. >> very large fire and very large amount of smoke over there and the sheriff came through and he made it clear that i should -- everybody should get out, so i thought he was pull of bologna, i thought that maybe he's right. >> wild fires continue to burn out of control in southern california. six large fires fanned by strong santa ana winds have destroyed more than 1,000 homes as well other structures, the thomas fire in ventura county is the largest one. california governor jerry brown surveyed damage in the county and dan springer is there with the latest, dan, what are you seeing? >> arthel, one thing about california, they know how to fight fires, they've had a lot of practice and between them and the federal government they have thrown massive resources at these six fires and thanks to lighter winds today and much of

yesterday, they are getting the upper hand on some of them. there are 8700 personnel here, most of them firefighters, some of them from surrounding states like oregon and nevada, the california national guard has been activated, of course, military police from several bases and, of course, the aircraft, they are key, marine and navy helicopters with a couple of c-130's and 747's that dropped fire deterrent. >> took a shot at republicans. >> tens and tens of billions of dollars. i hope the folks in washington realize that as they are spending money or helping other spend it by giving them tax breaks, we need to invest in our fire fighting capacity, we need to invest in our whole infrastructure and unfortunately the politics is so divided that we have a lot of other things we are thinking about. >> the fires have grown to a

combined 175,000 acres, that's 270 square miles and sadly just over a thousand structures have been destroyed, most of them homes because these fires have ripped through heavily populated areas, cities like ventura where i am, bell air and one person did die, a 70-year-old woman who crashed her car, smoke in lungs, several dozen -- racehorses were also killed include manager that were being trained at a facility in san diego county and while the winds were lighter today and certainly yesterday they are expected to kick back up late tonight and early tomorrow morning and we are expecting to have a red flag warnings remain in place until about 8:00 o'clock tomorrow night, arthel. >> so sad to see those flames, dan springer, thanks so much for the update, eric. eric: morn 20 passengers hospitalized in san francisco. that after a private charter bus overturned in the highway last night.

>> inside were 29 passengers, 27 of whom were able to get out of bus and two suffered severely injuries, still trapped inside, fortunately the fire department were able to get them out. eric: authorities believe not a second vehicle was involved. did pass a sobriety test at the scene, the exact cause of cash still at this hour under investigation. arthel: well, there could be trouble for new york governor andrew cuomo, why the fbi is now looking into his administration? plus the president doing his best to getting roy moore elected, urging people to vote for embattled candidate, but will it be enough to get moore the seat? will it -- we will take a look. >> this guy is screaming, we want roy moore, you're right.

eric: well office of new york governor andrew cuomo is reportedly being questioned by the fbi over hiring practices, senior staffers were listed as being paid by other state agencies, that would make cuomo staff and the budget of

governor's office in albany appear smaller than it really is. the governor's office says the administration did receive a subpoena for documents months ago and it's defending its hiring practices and veteran politicians in the state capital on both sides of the isle say the possibility of the financial arrangement they claim is not illegal and they say it's been followed up in albany for years. arthel: president trump sending a clear message to alabama voters, get outed and vote for roy moore, the president's support comes in spite of sexual misconduct allegations by several different women, alleged to be teens at the time, many lawmakers called for moore to drop out of race but forging ahead with the campaign and the president is behind him. joining us now is gabriel, national political reporter for politico and you live in montgomery, alabama, you are covering the election, listen,

last night the president was not far away, he was there in florida, he said vote for roy moore, so i ask you, gabriel, how is moore as well as the democratic opponent doug jones using the president's endorsement of moore in the last 36 or so hours before election day? >> well, you're not hearing doug jones talk about donald trump at all and that's because he knows that president trump is very popular here in alabama, but moore is certainly focusing a lot on the support from the president. he's getting a real boost from the president showing up just across the border. as far as i can tell talking to moore allies, what they are really focused on right now is trying to turn out voters who are big trump supporters but aren't necessarily wild about roy moore, getting the support from the president and trying to circulate as much as possible, well, that's moore's game right now. >> if it's all about president trump, show the president endorsement impacting voters, do you think it'll get them to pull the lever, if you will, for roy moore and also gabriel, what are

the big campaign issues in the race? >> well, at this point the big campaign issue, there's really only one and it's allegations against roy moore, doug jones is the democrat has tried to talk about some other things while, of course, elevating the issues but donald trump as he does with everything in politics these days does also loom over this race. there are a lot of liberal voters and some african-american voters who the democratic base who are more likely to vote for jones because of trump's strong support of roy moore, but really when it comes down to the issues, everyone is just talking about one person and that's right now at least that's roy moore. arthel: well, listen, we all know very well that a premium senate seat is up for grabs tuesday, a moore victory could potentially though put republican establishment in the political hot seat and gabriel, if you will, expound on the complications surrounding this race? >> oh, absolutely, it's really tough situation for the republican establishment just like you said.

just look at the situation that mitch mcconnell is in right now, he's a leader of the senate but he has said that moore should step aside, he has said that he would expel moore and he said that there would be ethics investigation into moore if he got to the senate and moore has been campaigning against mitch mcconnell active i will saying that he would try and vote against mitch mcconnell as leader to have party. if moore wins mcconnell will be in a very tough spot because not only does he have a new senator that's not exactly best friend with him, but he'll have a new senator to deal with who the president has openedly and outwardly supported so it's a very tough situation for a lot of republicans and a lot of republicans in washington are watching this and cringing the whole time. they don't want a democrat to win but they really don't want roy moore. arthel: speaking of democrats u cory booker and patrick campaigning for doug jones, they are in alabama this weekend, steve bannon will be joining a drain the swamp rally on monday,

you are from there, alabama folks they pride themselves on not listening to the dc people, so is there any indication that these big name backers will sway voters in anyway? >> well, i'm just here right now but from what i can tell bannon coming in is a big signal for the republican base that moore has the support of trump and obviously what folks on the right are trying to do right now is jones has support from people like cory booker, patrick, those people are from out of town and we don't like the out of towners coming in here but the reality here is that jones has brought those folks in particular because they don't have the highest national profile but he's betting that they are able to fire up the african-american base that he's really going to need on his side in order to win on tuesday. arthel: well, the president's profile is big no doubt and just getting word from the white

house that president trump is going to cut robo calls for roy moore, even more direct contact with the voters, what's your reaction to that? >> well, you know, it's not necessarily the biggest surprise, that's where he has made the turn to be vocal supporter of moore. it seems like the president is doing what he can short of showing up in the state to actually campaign for him but he got pretty close last night. a robo call might only be able to help moore. roy moore and allies are trying to win over voters who are big trump fans but who might be skeptical of moore and getting this support from president trump can only help them. arthel: gabriel, one quick follow-up from me, what happens if it doesn't win, luther strange didn't win and president trump backed him as well? >> it's going to be a much bigger question for the republican party than just what does it mean for donald trump. it will, of course, be a black eye for him but we have to step

back here and think that the very fact that this is competitive in the first place is a big win for democrats, no democrat has won the senate seat from alabama since the early 90's and that person is a senator shelby who is now a republican, so this state has changed a lot and the very fact that democrats are able to compete here means that something has shifted, partly that's just because roy moore is a flawed candidate but also big questions that the republican party is going to have to ask itself either way. arthel: gabriel, we will leave it there, thank you. >> thank you. eric: president's con trfersial decision on jerusalem also sends another message on terrorism. you know, the house passed a bill this last week named after this young man, he's west point graduate taylor force, tailor was murdered in cold ballooned by palestinian terrorist whose family is being rewarded with what could be your tax money. coming up the push to stop the terrorist payments. plus congressman john lewis,

civil rights icon in the country but he boycotted the opening of mississippi museum this morning because of president trump's attendance. coming up, we will have the controversy over his decision. >> look, donald trump could care less whether any of these people are showing up or what they think, he's going to do what's in the best interest of all americans it's time to shake things up. with the capital one venture card, you get double miles on everything you buy, not just airline purchases. seriously, think of all the things you buy. great...is this why you asked me to coffee? well yeah... but also to catch-up. what's in your wallet?

arthel: president trump back in florida in evening after he paid tribute to civil rights activists at the opening of two museums in jackson, mississippi earlier today, the event boycotted by some high-ranking civil rights leaders but the president did not address the controversy. >> it was hard work, it was long hours, it's a lot of money and i know that the governor helped with that and that was a great thing you've done. that's a great legacy, phil, right there, just that in

itself, it really is a beautiful place. these museums are labors of love, love for mississippi, love for your nation, love for god-giving dignity written into every human soul. arthel: phil live in west palm beach, florida with more. >> arthel, president trump is mar-a-lago, in time of opening kickoff of today's army-navy football team, as to who he was going to be rooting for, the president replied both, naturally. by the way current score navy 13, army 7. the president flew to mississippi to attend opening of civil rights mui yeem and walked through the exhibit documenting history which the president

spoke. >> oppression, cruelty and aggression inflicted on the african-american community, the fight to end slavery, to break down jim crow, to end segregation, to gain the right to vote and birthright of quality. >> last night a packed make america great rally, he urged alabamans to vote for accused sex offender roy moore. we can't have a pelosi-schumer democrat jones in the senate

seat, need your vote to make america great again. jones will always vote against what we must do for the country. no further public events scheduled from the president tonight, nothing so far that we know of from tomorrow when he was here two weeks ago for long thanksgiving weekend, the president went golfing five of the days in one of his golf clubs here, if he does that again tomorrow, well, it's going to be very cold, it's going to be highs in the 50's and 60's which down here it's cold. arthel: i'm a southerner, that's cold. you know it. eric. eric: controversy over president trump's announcement of jerusalem has continued through the weekend. there was a strong message, though, against middle east terrorism this past week. that's when the house passed the taylor force act, it's a bill aimed at stopping the palestinian authority from paying hundreds of millions of dollars to basically reward the killing of israelis and in some tragic cases are fellow

americans u. one victim was taylor force, 20-year-old west point grad who served in afghanistan and iraq, taylor was stabbed to death by palestinian terrorist last year as he walked in tel aviv with friends from university, the legislation named for him calls for cutting off any u.s. funding for the palestinian authority that goes to support the families of the terrorists and even the money that goes to convicted terrorists themselves, taylor's parents told us this year that the money flow must end. >> it's so important that the taylor force act passes so that other sons and daughters, brothers and sisters aren't lost in this way no matter what. >> with us now new york republican who met with taylor's parents just a few days ago and is the main sponsor of the house

bill, welcome to the studio, this story and the plight of taylor is heartbreaking and this bill sends such a message. >> well, u.s. taxpayers does not want to see our money being used -- going to palestinian authority and using, used by the palestinian authority to financially reward terrorism. the palestinian authority, they financially reward terrorism, they call terrorist like the person who murdered taylor a martyr, inciting violence. eric: it's unbelievable, bounty for terrorism in your view? >> no question about it. the palestinian authority doesn't even hide it, they admit, this is known and certainly needs to end and for taylor force -- the whole debate. we hear about palestinian murdering israelis, taylor

force, united states army veteran, it was so cool to have stewart and robbie in the gallery as we were passing legislation this past week and taylor's presence was there and as i mentioned during debate, i stand with taylor force, we are standing with tailor force in a situation that hopefully something very positive can come from it because the palestinian authority needs to change behavior. eric: they say it's a social welfare program and things will fall apart if they stop this, number one and number two, it's now up to the senate, do you think it'll pass there and will it eventually get to the president's desk and what will the president do? >> i don't know of any senators who would vote against it, we will find out, so i do expect this bill to pass the senate and to go to the president's desk, president trump and ambassador haley, the entire administration they already have in different ways have expressed support for this idea that our money

shouldn't be better leverage today get better results overseas, so i'm looking forward again to the president signing it. eric: you think he would? >> oh, yes, enthusiastically sign the bill and senate enthus yasically -- enthus arab league wants east jerusalem declare capital of palestinian and say it's despiteful. >> president trump is not only fulfilling his campaign promise but past campaign proms from past promises, beyond that is the important fact that jerusalem is the capital of

israel. as president trump pointed out, this is where the israeli is located, the prime minister and president lives, where the supreme court is, jerusalem is the capital of israel, it shouldn't be that controversial. it should have been done decades ago. we eric: to what some of them have said in the past about jerusalem being the capital of israel. >> whatever the outcome of the negotiations as stated in our democratic platform, jerusalem is still the capital of israel and must remain undivided city accessible to all. [applause] >> as soon as i take office, i will begin the process of moving the united states ambassador to the city of israel as chosen as it's capital. >> jerusalem will remain the capital of israel and must remain undivided. eric: they say the same thing, they are saying the exact same thing, how come the reaction

with this president? >> ambassador bolton has been on your show, the state department, they always have a line ready to go that says at this point in the middle east peace process, it's inadvisable to dot, dot. you think positive to help strengthen the relationship with israel you just fill in at that moment and all these past presidents while they were campaigning they made these commitments, others did it as well, you can have sound bites used by joe biden on the senate floor or hillary clinton made these, you played a few as well. eric: i've gotten this type of reaction. one thing that the president did say during a speech, he did commit to two-state solution, what do you think is going to happen, jared kushner has a plan that they will unveil in the next few months, what do you expect? >> it's great that they are giving all of this their best effort, i commend that a lot. this really needs to be negotiated on the ground between the israelis and palestinians, the united states if there's anything that we can do to assist that cause, that is great, you know, but i would

point out, i was in ramal meeting with prime minister a couple years back and he said to my face, they will not recognize israel as jewish state. certain dynamics here, if you're looking at palestinian authority, hamas, they will not rust unless israel is wiped off the map, they are teaching kids in school, 9 year's old -- eric: what happens? is there any possibility at all or is it just matter of a one-state and the situation status quo stays forever? >> it's a multidimensional effort and multigenerational effort. the money that we send to united nations is used to fund those textbooks. it's going to be something that every president head is going to be facing the same challenges and it's great that president trump who is a deal-maker, he would love to be part of a great effort here that gets to long-term peace but it's not easy but he's certainly trying. eric: well, he gave israel a

great gift in this and maybe they can ask for concessions down the line, do you expect that? >> well, i think both sides understand that they would have to make concessions, it doesn't mean that they're willing to actually make the concessions but it should be pointed time and time again in the past, israel has been willing to agree to different deals that have been on the table and it was the palestinians over decades an generations have been able to sign off on it. once upon a time we were talking about and crying to create a u, in that we need to fight against racism where ever it rears its ugly forms and now the united nations has become a force of exactly what it was set up to fight against, so at united nations in washington on the ground over in israel and the dynamic that is they face around it, it's not easy but we are trying, president trump is absolutely fully committed to doing everything he can to help and i support him 100% on that. eric: perhaps part of that effort would be signing the

taylor force if it reaches his desk. representative zeldon, congress in long island, thank you. >> thank you. arthel: flu season is coming early. data so far has showed that it has hit some states hard. what you can do to prepare for it? plus new brain scans on u.s. diplomats in cuba who suffered hearing and memory loss, why new findings question the theory of sonic attacks as a possible cause. >> i'm not aware of anyone who has ever shown sort of more focused or subtle sound-related damage to the brain matter. this is new to the scientific community, this idea, this possibility.

the center of disease and control, it's widespread in seven states across the country including arkansas, georgia and louisiana. sadly the flu they say has already killed seven children so far this season, the cdc is recommending a flu vaccine for everyone and that means you and us over the age of six months, try not to forget to go get the flu shot. arthel: eric, new medical testing revealing brain abnormalities in u.s. workers by phenomena in cuba. doctors search for clues to explain hearing, vision, balance and memory damage. >> doctors who are treating the victim of unexplained attacks in cuba are searching for answers on how patients developed all kinds of symptoms ranging rangim neurological to vision and cognitive problems. arthel: let's bring in dr. manny

álvarez, dr. manny, so this has been treated as my understanding, treated as a new never before seen illness. what can you tell us about it and is the damage permanent? >> well, let's look at the facts. i think that the facts are coming very clear that this was an attack, that this was a purpose attack on the staff over a long period of time, everything is pointing to sound waves, okay, look, there's a lot of work that is being done in -- in sound waves in medicine. we do sound waves to treat cancer, we use sound waves to, of course, maying diagnostic testing like ultrasounds and many papers back in the 90's where you found that in animal studies, sound waves altered wave tissue. what they found is that a lot of the folks had abnormalities in the white matter in the brain and that, of course, explains a

lot of the symptoms, you know, it's like a post traumatic disorder that could range from different kinds of neurological signs and symptom. some people have difficulty hearing, dizzy, imbalance problems and when you have changes that are documented on mri's for a lot of these folks, this is going to be a permanent disability. you know, there's a paper being published by a lot of the scientists with the help of the federal government that is being proposed that gets published in the next few months in one of the big journals to try to describe how this -- these injuries might have developed but more importantly how in theory these injuries are coming from an external force. now, cuba is an -- no friend to the united states and in cuba you have a lot of bad actors from north korea from venezuela to russia to china that a lot of

us in the cuban-american ciewnt they don't want the u.s. there. raúl castro in the 80's totally not in control of the island that much anymore. i am sure that as all of this -- this onion gets peeled by a lot of the -- secret service and fbi, they are going to find some suspects in this matter. arthel: i could go two different directions here but i'm going to stick with medical for now as i've got about 30 more seconds here. so what -- i know that in some of the patients, victims, the damage is permanent, what about some of the others, would they perhaps get better over time? >> what we have is we have -- this was -- this week, this past week we had real clinical evidence of neurological damage found on -- on studies. the question is what kind of force was necessary to create injuries, but i go back to

foundation, once you have neurological changes in your brain, this is something that even though the symptoms may subside to some degree, you may not get as dizzy, hearing coming back to you, there's always going to be -- arthel: base level is different? >> absolutely. this was an attack on our people and we have to find out why. arthel: okay, dr. manny álvarez, get your flu shot. >> i always do. you get your flu shot. arthel: i never do. i told them. >> get your flu shot. arthel: never do. >> absolutely. eric: get the flu shot, arthel. get yours too. coming up, we will tell you about a very special organization that was honored ahead of army-navy game, tradition on travis foundation.

inspiring the next generation to selfless service driving. griff jenkins reports. >> we began the travis foundation ten years ago with five words, it's not me then who. we have been able to take that movement and stretch it across the country. >> what better way for us to teach our next generation about what it means to live a life of character than to share the stories of the men and women who volunteer to put on our nation's uniform and to step forward and serve. >> when you travel as you do all across the world and country and you see the young service member maybe weary, what do you say to them? >> i walk up and look at them and say, you know, there's an awful lot of us who really appreciate what you're doing. those men and women representative patriotism to be sure, character to be sure, but also qualities of discipline and -- and determination which are characteristics we all admire,

every single person serving in the military is there because they want to be there. they've raised their hand and said, send me. god bless them. >> i'm inspired every single day by our future leaders. seeing what the young men and women in our country are doing day in and day out, it's what motivates me and so that's why i love being a volunteer with travis manion foundation because they realize that our youth is our futures leaders. >> i had the honor of first meeting joe dunford, then colonel now, chairman of the joint chief, highest ranking officer, general u nice to see you again. >> good to see you too, griff. >> general, tonight at this gala you're inspiring the legacy of a selfless service in young folks, what are you saying to them? >> one of the things that this group is all about, they say that character matters and i think the real message is to be a part of something bigger than yourself and to live in the footsteps of individuals like

travis manion and the other individual who is are being honored tonight. one of the commitments that we make to never forget events like this about keep ago live the legacy of these men and women that have made the ultimate sacrifice and what i say to them, we have made a commitment not to forget and i hope my presence here tonight make sure that we are going to meet that commitment. >> did you ever think in those days when i was a camera man chasing you around in the dirt that i would end up at a gala like this interviewing you or delivering you your news? >> griff, that's probably the easiest question you've asked me and the simple answer is no.

eric: the moment of truth is fast-approaching in alabama, voters go to polls over 72 hours on tuesday, both candidates pulling out the stops this weekend, we get word that president trump will record a last-minute robo call for roy moore, that's most direct involvement yet in the alabama rice. welcome to brand-new hour of america's news headquarters, i'm eric sean. arthel: and i'm arthel neville. the president turning up the heat with republican roy moore and democrat doug jones neck and neck with the finish line in sight. but moore's camp is opening to get a boost from president

trump, robo calls reported today and rally last night in pensacola, florida which is close to the alabama border. the president throwing his support behind moore despite sexual misconduct allegations against him. >> we can't afford to have a liberal democrat who is completely controlled by nancy pelosi and chuck schumer, we can't do it. we can't do it. his name is jones and he's their total puppet and everybody knows it. he will never vote for us. we need somebody in that senate seat who will vote for our make america great again agenda. arthel: we have live team coverage from alabama, jonathan serrie is covering roy moore campaign and peter doocy standing by with the latest on dug jones.

jonathan. >> hi, arthel, white house officials confirming the president made that robo call earlier today, it's expected to go out on monday, the day before the election and while moore did not appear with the president at that rally in pensacola he is certainly enjoying the favorable comments that the president made urging alabama voters to go out and vote for roy moore, the president explaining that it's about the balance of power in washington trying to preserve the gop's thin majority in the u.s. senate. >> the future of this country cannot afford to lose a seat in the very, very close united states senate. we can't afford it, folks, we can't. >> attorney gloria allred who claims moore assaulted her at 16, noted signature in the woman's high school year book matched the handwriting of roy moore, however, accuser beverly

nelson has also revealed recently that she added some of her own handwritten notes below moore's signature. >> we did not ask expert to confirm signature after because beverly indicate that is she added that to remind herself of who roy moore was and when and where mr. moore signed her year book. >> okay, so that is all represent -- allred's explanation. the moore campaign is using this as evidence to discredit all of her testimony, they're calling on nelson and allred to turn over the year book to independent third party so that it can undergo unbias handwriting analysis, back to you. arthel: thank you for the update. eric. eric: doug jones, today he's mobilizing his supporters to try

and turn out out the vote and has stinging words for his opponents, strong statement for why the voters in alabama should cast ballots for him and they pointed directly at those allegations against moore that have so far dominated this contentious contest. >> roy moore has never, ever served our state with honor. i damn sure believe that i have done my part to ensure that men who hurt little girls should go to jail and not be in the united states senate. we are we are we are joined by peter doocy who is in alabama, peter, good evening. >> good evening, eric, big part of the doug jones strategy is to try to motivate african-american voters in alabama to go out and vote for him on tuesday. so the try to motivate that community to go out and vote on tuesday for him he phoned in some help from new jersey senator cory booker and massachusetts senator -- former

massachusetts governor devolt patrick. >> i feel comfortable that we have been reaching everybody. it's not just a question about african american voters, this election is about everybody in the state. while we are reaching out to the african-american community here in selma and elsewhere, we are reaching out with same messages to everyone else. >> the other high profile surrogate that jones phoned in senator cory booker is teasing his attacks on the republican roy moore on twitter by responding to a reporter who posed moore said about not wanting transparency genders in the military with this, booker writes, well, i'm in the united states senate and i don't want to be next to you wonder if senate pages will be safe from your advances, your bigotry, ignorance and hate has no place in the senate, i'm going to my ancestral home, state of alabama to lend a hand in defeating you.

a huge problem that he now him behind 3 points. that's a big part of the reason that some republican who is abandoned roy moore say that they cannot support jones but the democrat is trying to at least make sure that people don't think he's for certain kinds of abortion with a video on his twitter page today. >> and the abortion attacks, does not true, he doesn't support long-term abortions and never has. >> jones is also pitching himself today in the final days of the campaign as a vote for chip, the children's health insurance program, he says that that is specially on important like days today when it snows in alabama, arthel. eric: snow in alabama, how about that? you never know what could happen, we will see what happens on tuesday. i will take it, thanks, peter. arthel: new developments in

russian investigation, chris grilled by republican lawmakers over concerns about his agency's fairness. >> would it be accurate to say that a senior fbi official changed the wording of the director's statement to ensure that secretary clinton was not liable under the espionage act? >> i don't think it would be appropriate for me to speculate what the inspector general will or will not find. >> white house communication director hope hicks latest to be questioned, fbi reportedly warned hicks about attempts by russian operatives to contact her during transition. kristin fisher live in washington with more. kristin, let's talk timeline, when did the russian operatives allegedly try to contact her? >> arthel, during the transition, so between last november and january according to new york times the fbi officials cite in the report

that hope hicks didn't do anything improper but alarmed by operatives since it reportedly happened after the u.s. intelligence community publicly accused moscow of trying to influence the election. now investigators at special counsel's office met with her, the white house communications director yesterday, the same day that mueller's team filed more evidence against paul manafort. line by line changes in microsoft word document which prosecutors claim is proof that manafort claims it's proof that prosecutors claim he has russian ties intelligence. he proofread the op-ed, they are now going to be back in court first thing monday morning, arthel. arthel: kristin, at the same time special counsel accused by republicans for being unfair too political. >> the most recent person is top

deputy's a man by the name of andrew wiseman who according to wall street journal was at hillary clinton's election night party in new york city and this comes right after another investigator in the special counsel's office peter was removed for alleged sending antitrump messages. here is republican congressman tim jordan. >> he gets kicked off for a text message that's antitrump. if you kicked out everybody from mueller's team that's antitrump, i don't think there would be anybody left. there has to be something more here. >> democrats clearly disagree. congressman at the same hearing last week. >> predicted the attacks on the fbi would grow louder and more brazen as counsel does work and walls close in on the president and misdeeds become more apparent. >> argue that the attacks are sign that the special counsel's office is doing what it's supposed to do and doing its

job, arthel. arthel: okay, kristin fisher, thank you very much, eric. eric: fallout continues tonight, allegations of sexual harassment against sitting members of congress. even more accusations are expected to be revealed in the coming weeks and shake that building even more. well, tonight congressional leaders are facing mounting pressure to take action on all of this. this is what house peaker paul ryan had to say about all the taxpayer money that's been shelled out to settle several hundred cases. >> the committee on house administration is presently holding a wide-ranging hearing on reporting and settlement process for sexual harassment. the goal of this hearing is to take a look at the entire system. we want to identify what reforms are needed to change the way things work. in addition to just better policies to protect women, we also need a real culture change. we need to recognize that this is a pervasive problem that women face not just here in congress but through every industry.

eric: what do they plan? karen has more on that in washington. >> sexual harassments forced conyers, trent franks to quit this week, pressure on conyers and franken had been built for weeks but franks a surprise in washington. he reportedly offered $5 million if she would conceive a child with him as he and wife were struggling with infertility. quit effective yesterday after his wife was hospitalized. on thursday, franks said, quote, in the midst of cultural and media climate i'm deeply convinced i would be able to complete fair house investigation and we are learning more about how tax dollars got paid to alleged harassed by members of congress. stepped up investigation of congressman blake farenthold.

farenthold denies alleges but settled case. last night congressman hastings didn't know about 220-dollar payout in taxpayer money to settle sexual harassment lawsuit against him. will carl broke the story, a federal employee accused hastings of making sexual advances and threatening job. reactions to all the cases have been swift. >> there's no place for sexual harassment in our society especially in congress, period. >> this is not about politics, i just -- this is the last thing it's about. in fact, this isn't about politics, this is about america and that's about our country as well. >> it's also bipartisan. the accused come from both sides of the aisle, eric. eric: all right, caroline, thanks so much. arthel. arthel: eric, an appeals court decides the fate of a man convicted to murder after controversial confession, what

the judges rule, that's coming up. fallout from sexual misconduct on capitol hill continues this week. democratic senator al franken announced he'll be resigning. >> i think he did what he had to do and i wish him well in his next chapter.

♪ that one daddy! it's beautiful. i'm the world's greatest douglas fir. i'm the perfect shape. i'm the perfect color. my scent- like making love to a lumberjack. but halfway home, my twine gets loose. and your cut-rate insurance might not pay for this. so get allstate. where you can save money and be better protected from mayhem like me. mayhem is everywhere. so get an allstate agent. are you in good hands?

arthel: brandon, featured in netflix making a murder will remain behind bars, the seventh u.s. circuit court of appeals making the decision in chicago. the court narrowly overturning a ruling from last year that could have freed him. investigators tricked him into confessing his role in the raining and killing of theresa in 2005, dassey and uncle are currently serving life in prison. >> well, a series of resignations on capitol hill over allegations of sexual misconduct, the buzz on capitol hill and some are thinking more names could also fall, just this week minnesota senator al franken, michigan congressman john conyers, arizona congressman trent franks all on the way out, franken though not going quietly as he took a parting shot at president trump when he gave his speech on the senate floor.

>> some of the allegations against me are simply not true. others i remember very differently. i am leaving while a man who has bragged on tape about his history of sexual assault sits in the oval office and a man who has repeated preyed on young girls campaigns for the senate with a full support of his party. >> so letting us know what it means to the political, david. david, i think there's been a huge cultural shift in hollywood, business and in capitol hill n washington it's becoming a political issue, how do you see this going? >> well, sure, everything -- everything is a political issue and i think -- i see this as being one of the great, one to have big campaign issues, probably of 2018.

if you imagine for a moment that after this budget shutdown that we've been talking about and after the tax bill is done, you go into the campaign season, president trump and the republican congress don't really have great big legislative plans for next year. the legislative year will be short before campaign season really takes over and it looks -- safe prediction to say that how congress reckons with sexual harassment in its own mist and reckons on how to handling this, lacking in transparency and allowing members of congress to use taxpayer money to settle claims against them, how congress reacts to this and whether it is perceived as one party handling it well and one party handling it badly will be one of the big issues of this year. >> yeah, so far -- you have like seven. seven members to have congress, there they are who have been accused, some denied it, others

have resigned in various different ways, do you expect they'll be more? >> i do expect there to be more, having said that i don't know of any more. i think many of us in this town are working on stories trying to talk to our sources, trying to understand if there are more and trying to talk to some people about maybe allowing there to be more, sure, 7 -- quibble with you on one person on the list, six, seven, that's more than 1% of the entire membership of country, yes, i think that it is likely that there will be more. remembering for a minute that congress skews its -- skews rich and old and very male and it is people -- men of a certain generation of an older generation that are more likely than not to have gotten away with this culture of harassment for many years, yes, i think they'll be more. eric: about office of

compliance, $17 million of taxpayer money to pay 268 cases, so far like -- no one ever did anything about that except members of congress. >> we should note for a second that those numbers are true over the last 15 years for all claims of all workplace problems in capitol hill. to the moment, we only know about two of them involving sexual harassment and two members that you had on the screen a minute ago, blake farenthold, republican from texas and just last night we reported, we reported $220,000 in taxpayer money to settle harassment claims against hastings, democrat from miami. eric: variety of type of issues, of course, not just sexual allegations. meanwhile, hastings who had been impeached at one point? a judge and ran for congress? >> he was a federal judge, he was convicted of corruption, that conviction was in many ways

overturned, he was able to run for congress, he's been in congress now for more than 20 years. this involved a woman on the staff of a committee that he ran, it was widely reported that she was complaining against him but we only learned roll call reported last night the amount of the settlement which is approaching triple the other one that we knew about blake farenthold which was 84,000. eric: do you think congress will overhaul this? >> i do. this is something that republicans -- they have been slow off the mark, the republican leadership as you noted. senator franken had to resign, john conyers had to resign, those two got out front, sort of as being sort of the members that were going to be required to be sacrificed. the republicans were a little slow off the mark with trent franks, they still haven't responded truly, they have been all over the map on roy moore and silent on the president but

i think that the republican leadership is going to -- is going to realize that they need to drive changes in the system and i think with the help of some democrats. i think there aren't too many antireal incumbent elections in the country. the last time there was a real antiincumbant congressional election way back in 1992 after the house bank scandal. the last time that more than ten members of each party were defeated in each election. i think that this is -- this threatens to happen again unless both parties reform that system. eric: that was the money, grabbing like bank robbers. finally, we just made a point about the political aspect with the republican leadership, here is what the washington editorial has said, the democrats are eliminating stains, the republicans are endorsing theirs, we have to believe in magic to think this is going to end well for republicans, if mr. moore wins he will haunt the trump presidency. bloodless game and hi-stakes

political chase is a brutal game. it's time for the gop to protect itself if mr. trump won't, what does that mean if mr. moore wins on tuesday? >> super powerful editorial, i think it's an excellent point. you have trent franks, he's known in conservative circles as a very vocal conservative like farenthold not so well moore. roy moore is by far and away if he wins the most prominent person with a sexual harassment problem in congress. it's a huge problem for them, mitch mcconnell say that is he will open an ethics committee investigation if mr. moore wins on tuesday and comes to congress, how they handle that -- eric: does that mean public hearings? >> it could be. what will they need to do? they would essentially reinvestigate these women who have come forward and talked to the washington post and try and decide in their own venue

whether these women are credible. so, yes, it could be public hearings, the women could be called upon to testify publicly, roy moore could be called to testify publicly. you don't really know how this would shake out, to be honest a senate ethics committee has been a pretty sleepy place for several years, much busier next year if moore wins. >> remember the controversy with anita hill, that could be replayed in the coming year. wow, david hawkings as always, thank you. >> thank you. arthel: the russian election investigation maybe getting closer to the president. investigators reportedly questioning one of trump's top advisers the white house communications, how serious is this and what happens next yes i do. true or false... type 2 diabetes more than doubles your chance of dying from a cardiovascular event, like a heart attack or a stroke. that can't be true, can it? actually, it is true.

and with heart disease, your risk is even higher. in fact, cardiovascular disease is the #1 cause of death for adults with type 2 diabetes and heart disease. but there is good news. 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. that's good to know. 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. isn't it time to talk to your doctor about jardiance? absolutely. ask your doctor about jardiance. and get to the heart of what matters. money managers are pretty much the same. all but while some push high commission investment products, fisher investments avoids them. some advisers have hidden and layered fees. fisher investments never does. and while some advisers are happy to earn commissions from you whether you do well or not, fisher investments fees are structured so we do better when you do better. maybe that's why most of our clients come from other money managers. fisher investments. clearly better money management.

>> president trump's decision to call jerusalem capital, recognize the state of

palestinian with east jerusalem as it's capital. come as protests continued this weekend following the president's controversial decision to recognize the holey city, anger among palestinians and neighbors running high. >> never two-state solution after this, never going to be peace because he gave away the capital. it's not his -- any one's land to give away. if he wants to give something to them, give them america. he shouldn't be giving away land. eric: live in jerusalem with the latest, hi, david lee. >> eric, two palestinians were killed today in air strikes in gaza, the israeli military says those attacks were in retaliation for rockets that were fired into israel, the targets included hamas, weapons making facilities, weapons warehouse as well as military compound. meanwhile antiisraeli and antiu.s. demonstrations took place throughout the day in gaza

and across the west bank in bethlehem and also clashes along the gaza border. israeli officials say the military is trying to exercise restrain, hamas answered, up rises has been lit, in jerusalem outside the old city, half a dozen people were holding what they call illegal protest over although it does appear that the clash is today were less intense than what we saw during the last three days but about 140 palestinians were wounded. mean while the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu is lashing out at critics of president trump's jerusalem declaration, the prime minister is accusing some world leaders of having a double standard. he's asking the question, why are they very quick to condemn president trump for recognizing jerusalem as the capital of

israel yet they remained silent when it comes to the rocket attacks being launched by hamas and other extremist groups from gaza. the israeli prime minister, eric, is now on his way to paris and brussels to meet with a number of world leaders, thank you. eric: we we will get your reactn there. arthel. arthel: russian investigation taking a new tush and getting closer to the president's inner circle. according to new york times robert mueller's investigators questioned the white house communications director hope hicks, the report saying that hicks received emails from russian operatives during the presidential transition, these new revelations come days after fbi director christopher wray defended agency to house republicans. >> there's no finer institution than fbi and no finer people than the men and women who work there and are its very beating heart.

almost 37,000 men and women with a fierce commitment to protecting the american people and upholding the rule of law, men and women who face the darkest that life has to offer with unyielding integrity and dedication arthel: now university of memphis law professor at criminal defense attorney, thank you for being here. >> thank you. arthel: absolutely. should the american people be concerned that political bias has infected the fbi? >> i don't think, arthel. i understand that that one particular agent had some texts that were prohillary clinton and antitrump and he was quickly suspended from the investigation and there's an ongoing department of justice inspector general investigation into that, but by in large, though, i think the fbi's reputation has a

professional apolitical organization and well deserved and should continue. the fbi director, of course, has a 10-year term, he's supposed to be independent. you know, the current and prior fbi director are in fact, republicans. i think that this one particular incident probably shouldn't be enough to tarnish the image of the agency as a whole. arthel: as you pointed peter was taken off the mueller team and reassigned to human resources department. so is there any valid reason to question the integrity of the federal bureau of investigation? >> i think in questioning the integrity of the entire organization as a whole is an overreaction. i mean, based on what i know about the fbi and my time as a federal prosecutor, the fbi has always been an apolitical organization and, in fact, many of the people in the fbi probably in their personal views my lean conservative. i think that the president that

fbi agents and human beings may have political beliefs bru that necessarily mean they can't conduct investigations in professional and unbiased manner, those particular texts from that one person were unfortunate but as i noted, mr. mueller's response was to suspend him from the investigation and now the inspector general is investigating all of that. i think -- i think that's probably enough. arthel: i want to show a tweet from president trump that he tweeted last night, on the screen for me, general flynn lies to the fbi and his life is destroyed while crooked hillary clinton on that now famous fbi holiday interrogation with no swearing in and no recording lies many times and nothing happens to her. this, of course, referring to michael flynn's guilty plea last week and the president adding rigged system or just a double standard. i want to ask you, professor,

what's your assessment of the distrust between the trump white house and the fbi willing aired out so publicly and through outlets like twitter? >> right. well, you know, mr. trump's frustration with the ongoing is understandable and i can understand why he may, you know, feel that way, but i think the fbi would say that there is a legitimate distinction between what happened with mr. flynn who was pretty much caught making affirmative misrepresentations under oath about his contacts with russian officials and the clinton investigation where at least the fbi came to the conclusion that there was no intent and there was an intent to disseminate classified information that was required under the relevant statute at issue. i understand why he may be frustrated at the difference in outcome by to your question, arthel, it is extraordinary for president to be making such

public statements undermining confidence in the integrity of the fbi. it's not something that we have seen at least recently in my memory and it is -- it is an extraordinary development. arthel: i want to circle back to white house communications director hope hicks, anything to glen by ms. hicks being questioned by mueller's team or subject matter at hand? >> i would say this, arthel, the mere fact that hope hicks was contacted by some russian operatives during the transition period is not in and of itself and illegal act, it doesn't necessarily mean that hope hicks herself did anything illegal. i think the broader significance is just that as, i think, you indicated earlier in your intersection to this piece that it brings the investigation closer in to the inner circle of the white house. it brings the investigation one person closer to the president himself and i think that just sort of builds on the general narrative that maybe there were

a lot of contacts between russian operatives and the clinton campaign -- i'm sorry, the trump campaign and the trump white house. arthel: well, investigations continue so no conclusions as of yet but we will continue to watch, steven, thank you very much for your time and analysis this evening. >> thank you very much, take care. eric: major milestone in the war against radical islamic terrorist of isis. iraqi government has now claimed victory over the terrorist group but is this really is end for those terrorists? and the police dog mauls on innocent women the whole thing, horrifying captured on body cam video, what this victim is doing now to make sure that this never happens again. >> she was taking out a garbage at saturday morning at 6:30 unbeknownst there was a burglary call and k-9 ended up biting her and really attacking

(laughter) that's fine. i miss her more than you anyway. ♪ ♪ hey, my window is closing. yeah that's okay. alright miles. i love you.

arthel: minnesota woman suing the st. paul police department after attacked by police dog, disturb to go see it listened to. police body camera video showing the dog wouldn't let go of arm for about 30 seconds. this happened in september when the officer searched for burglary suspects, collins was taking out her trash. >> we are seeking additional training, it's a big thing. the police department came out and apologized for the incident which she greatly appreciated and in our view the way to complete that apology is to employ incident specific training to make sure this doesn't happen again. arthel: collin's attorney was arguing that the leash on the dog was too long, eric.

eric: major milestone in fight against isis, iraq claiming victory, this comes after more than three years of combat there during which iraqi forces worked to drive out the radical islamic terrorists from the land they once controlled and as you know proclaimed the so-called caliphate, iraq's prime minister announced this accomplishment. >> honorable iraqis, your land has been liberated, cities and villages have returned home, dream of liberation is reality. achieved victory in difficult circumstances and with god's help the steadfast of our people and bravery of heroic forces, we prevailed. eric: but is this really the end of isis? dr. cohn. it's achievement, could it be in any ways premature? >> it's not premature that you

could celebrate a victory in the battle and the victories against isis in syria and in iraq are major battlefield victories after which isis does not control territory as they did. they control 34,000 square meters all the way to mediterranean to baghdad. eric: who gets the credit and why are we able to achieve this and remember back when al bagdhahi is claiming caliphate. >> secondly, once they lost their land control, they stopped being a country, extremists

showed us again and again that they are very capable of morphing and taking in new off battle. is his go on the ground and will use suicide bombers and they will also have a massive presence on the internet that sunni arabs and international coalition about 60 countries need to fight them ideologically as well as in the battlefield. eric: are we doing a good job at that? >> no, we do not do a good job and if you give me an hour, i can tell you why not. for example, i will give you one example, when the state department prepares materials against the radicals, they stamp it with the good housekeeping stamp saying, this is brought to you by the state department and the good people of the united

states of america. that undermines 90% of the credibility of these materials because immediately this guy says, this is the american government propaganda. eric: shouldn't they say that's the other side of the story, you're going to end up in a ditch if you follow isis? >> but you're much better off finding credible arab and sunni muslim voices without putting the stamp of the state department. eric: where are they? >> well, there are some and you now see, for example, in saudi arabia people talking against radical sunni interpretations of the great faith, so does the president of egypt, al si-si. there are that call for moderation just not enough. eric: what do we need to go? the suspect in the terror attack here in new york, allegedly

self-radicalized on the internet as you just pointed out, they have the isis flags and isis material, wanted to put the isis flag in hospital room, that's the big next threat certainly for us, so how do you stop that before they start coming out like two-pace in a squeezed tube spreading through europe and our country? >> well, you mentioned a key theater for these people where they go, they go to europe and in europe they get some of them get under police surveillance and then still manage to go out and murder dozens of europeans in the last couple of years if you remember paris, berlin, nice, france, becauseels and others, so when they run from the middle east where the u.s. military and one thing -- one beef i have with the prime minister of iraq when he made the big declaration about the victory against isis, he did not give credit where the credit belongs which is the men and

women of the u.s. armed forces. we carried a lot of burden in this battle. eric: seriously? >> seriously. eric: really? >> yes. the other thing he did mention is that the government of iraq in baghdad and the government of syria and demascus and the government of lebanon all the way from tehran through iraq into syria and lebanon now the government of iran controls over thousand kilometers, thousand clicks after territory all the way to mediterranean, this is a strategic threat to our arab-sunni allies including the oil of the persian gulf, saudi arabia and emirates and it's a threat to our ally in israel. eric: that's the so-called iranian-shiite presence, they are trying to establish that and then you say they control the shiite malacias in iraq and

that's potentially the next threat. dr. cohen, we have to run. thank you, we will get that with the prime minister. we have shed our blood and young men and women for their freedom, we will see about that, arthel. arthel: police in texas are asking for your help in finding this man. jeffrey noble, a person of interest in a triple homicide in houston. we will have more details on that ahead. plus a very rare fight in the south after surprise winter storm hits parts of texas, alabama and georgia and even a few flurries in new orleans. the storm turning landscape into winter playground. >> you can't get off. you can't climb up or climb down without falling. hard to handle ♪
