terrorist organizations? first-hand perspective, thank you for joining us. >> good morning. heather: terrorist organization? >> absolutely. tucker carlson talking the same thing. people in our state were not afraid of isis. that's not who we have problems with who affect our daily lives, the cartels bringing in human beings and drugs into this country and what we saw firsthand, prayers go out to the family. they have no regard for human life. heather: they were so young including 8-month-old twins. what the president do? what can we do? >> if this happened in our community, say it happened with a local street gang, we would put the boot on their throat.

donald trump reached out to mexico, offered assistance, you got to meet force with force and we've got to show, the cartels watching what we are doing. we've got to show the jackals who we really are and this is one of those situations. heather: such a disturbing story, 75 miles outside arizona. personally, what do you deal with? 27 americans murdered in mexico, that is just this year so far. >> the rocky point which isn't far from where we are and a lot of people from arizona go they found 44 bodies in a grave, and the pressure the extreme and rapid violence is going on and

we are dealing with it. 7 the day before, 3 the day before and this is something we deal with every day and time america wakes up and recognizes we have a crisis. heather: this is a statement we received from one of the victims pleading for what they call even ace of action saying i am totally heartbroken over this. we need the us to take evasive action. the president of mexico has to call trump, to go forward. we have drugs that are crossing over the border. and waiting until the drug cartel crosses over our border in arizona, and massively kill the family like this, why wait? >> there is violence in our

from her fear mongering statement. carley: she has been holding weekly climate change protests and been arrested four times but despite that she will keep going because she moved to washington dc to make this a focus and a priority but like you said at the top her message isn't sitting well with a lot of people. one twitter user says how will mobilizing in the streets or anything else change the climate? carolyn says scare tactics are irresponsible and kelly tweets the time of law enforcement in order to gain public attention. donald trump formally began withdrawing from the paris climate accord this week, something i am sure jane fonda is not happy about. heather: maybe she will run into donald trump. carley: i don't even want to be a fly on that wall. >> this is something that was

discussed as a possibility last year changing the words to baby it's cold outside, there's a problem with that. >> what would john legend do if in 40 years someone wanted to re-record one of his songs and somebody said i can change the lyrics on that, to change an innocent lyric to your mind and your body? heather: she's not on board with the change, john legend came up with a new version of the song. the 1944 version if you remember the lyrics you like this. the neighbors might think it is bad out there. to be had out there but a new version says what will my friends think? they should rejoice if i have one more drink, it is your body and your choice. a different message. one twitter user says sharon

osbourne has a point. when you write a song it is your masterpiece, a work of art, not meant for, quote, modern times but because folks don't enjoy the song, hashtag me too is threatened by it. how about write a new song and let the old one alone? kind of like going into a museum and drawing a bikini on a really old nude painting. so this last one is a good one. free tuition, you had to do this first. >> free tuition for a year and a bunch of other baskets for that but that sealed the deal. i am sure his parents watching at home have a different and much more animated reaction than him. heather: college tuition is not

inexpensive. thank you so much. the time is 25 minutes after the top of the hour and abc news's damage control mode after an anchor is caught on a hot mike claiming her jeffrey epstein story was blocked. >> i tried for three years to get it on to no avail and it is all coming out and new revelations. heather: how the network is responding. we are two weeks from the next democratic debate, what do the top 5 contenders need to do to stand out. the messaging for each candidate before they take the stage. ♪

>> half past the top of the hour and look at our headlines starting with the fox news alert, the fbi ready to join the investigation into the cartel massacre, killed 9 americans in mexico, unclear whether mexico will expect that offer. family members blame the chihuahua cartel for ambushing three mothers and six children in their cars. opening arguments in the roger stone trial if the former trump advisor is healthy enough, accused of lying to congress and

witness tampering, battling food poisoning and it is not clear if he will make it to court. the results are in on election day, republican lieutenant governor tate read defending -- defeating jim hood in the race for mississippi governor. democratic attorney general andy bashar claiming victory over republican incumbent matt bevan but the race is too close to call and democrats take control of virginia state legislature for the first time in 25 years. abc news on damage control after amy klobuchar -- amy robotic was caught on camera saying the network buried her investigation into jeffrey epstein. todd pyro joins us in studio with the explosive allegations and how the network is reacting. >> reporter: the video has not been verified by fox but raises

questions on who was part of epstein's life and possibly his death. >> i had the story for 3 years, we announced it on the air. who is jeffrey epstein? no one knows who that is. we had the allegations, they threatened us 1 million different ways. it was unbelievable, clinton and everything. so i think he was killed? 100%. he made his living blackmailing people. >> reporter: in response she says i was caught in a private moment of frustration. i was upset that an important interview i conducted with virginia roberts didn't care because we could not obtain corroborating evidence to meet abc's editorial standards about her allegations was my comments about prince andrew and allegations she had seen bill clinton on epstein's private

island were in reference to what virginia roberts said in an interview in 2015. abc news's explanation, quote, at the time not all of the reporting met our standards to air but we never stopped investigating the story. ever since, we had a team on this investigation and substantial resources dedicated to it. as to the comment she thought epstein was killed, remember this from former chief medical examiner for new york city, this happened on "fox and friends". >> multiple fractures in thyroid cartilage that are very unusual for suicide and more indicative of homicidal strangulation. hanging does not cause these broken bones but homicide does. >> reporter: virginia roberts echoing comments caught on tape saying she doesn't want roberts -- i should say she doesn't want robotic tarred by anything abc

failed to do. the story not close to going away. heather: crumbling that sound during the commercial break. thank you so much. molly hemingway says that amy roback's comment meant they didn't want to let facts get in the way of the outside interests. >> it was not that they went with this explanation they didn't run these stories because they didn't have evidence. that would seem reasonable, you want to make sure you have that story nailed down, so many examples over and over where if you don't share the political viewpoint or celebrity friendship of media people they will destroy your life with no corroborating evidence. it is worth remembering it was just a year ago with the brett kavanaugh situation, while the allegations coming forth. those things came to be broadcast on that network even if there was no corroboration. if you look at the covington

boys people went crazy trying to destroy these boys's life even though the actual story was precisely the opposite of the when the media presented. heather: abc news stands by the statement that their journalists were not able to corroborate the story which is why it was deemed unfit for broadcast. believe it or not we are just one year away from the 2020 presidential election and democratic contenders desperately vying for votes. >> my son did nothing wrong, i did nothing wrong. >> cost go up for the wealthy and middle-class families. >> trump is the most corrupt president in the history of this country. >> i don't need lessons from you on courage. >> donald trump, 65 million twitter followers, he and his account should be taken down.

heather: who will stand out from past performances some of which you saw? here with communication expertise, speaking to influence, mastering your leadership voice. thank you for joining us, great to have you with us. your initial response as you saw the candidate speaking in past debates? >> they have the potential to move ahead but until they get messaging straight they will stay in that wild goose chase with nobody pulling ahead and a hard time when somebody does get the combination to beat donald trump. >> look at the fox news polls showing different nominees and preference among democratic primary voters. joe biden at 31%, elizabeth hornet 21%, bernie sanders in 19%. pretty close between the top 3

and pete buttigieg and kamala harris at the end. what do they need to do to move up? >> they need people to know what they stand for and that is what all these candidates need to do to get their messages into repeatable soundbites. at this point for buttigieg and harris, hard for people to state easily what they stand for. if you vote for me what are you going to get? until they do have that knowledge they will stay where they are. >> the authenticity is important and how do you make that come across in a debate? >> something buttigieg and harris do quite well. they come across as they seem to be and make no bones for their histories etc.. part of the challenge is being able to just your demeanor and delivery so that you hit the right note.

elizabeth warren's challenge is that likability factor along the lines of hillary clinton. something in their gut remind them of the nagging mother the way she gets intense, her voice clenches at her head shakes, and a nagging feeling, your brain says you don't judge people on that, your gut does. >> we have somebody different at the top, bernie sanders as you were discussing, elizabeth foreign, pete buttigieg, kamala harris and joe biden in the end. >> biden started with the most name recognition. he maintained that but the ability to convince more people to jump from whatever ship they are on is going to be more about the way he conveys what he will promise.

heather: if you look at those polls he seems to be doing better as a potential nominee among potential voters but when it comes to people actually divvying out the cash he has been last at this point according to that poll. >> a lot of it will be in the upcoming debate, can he not let people pushes buttons? people pushes buttons he gets flustered and his face changes in a way that doesn't have that million dollar smile and starts to stammer and when he stammers on something that is when people lose their ability to trust him. heather: no wagging the finger. thank you so much, great to have you one. 20 minutes until the top of the hour. chicago's top cop is no stranger to controversy, he ditched the president's visited is under investigation over questionable actions that could the city soon

will vote whether to make sleeping in public a crime. the proposal would fine or jail those found in violation. does this help the homeless find shelter or simply criminalize them. the proposal, join us now. thank you for joining us, we appreciate it. why do you back this proposal? >> this ordinance is about safety, health and sanitation. criminalizing homeless is not what we are doing. we are looking at making sure people get the help of a need andto stay in and if we don't have the space or beds and this ordinance does not take effect. heather: we can look at that when we look at the numbers, almost twice as many homeless

people as beds available, 5200 homeless people, just the ones you know about, 60% of homeless residents sleep outdoors. this has been a problem across the country. many other communities have similar bans on public sleeping. what do you think the answer is overall? >> you have to be responsible. as a city there are 107 other cities with similar ordinances, 64 other cities with a similar been totally. what we are doing is giving the many options. one is you just can't camp in public or private property, especially if there is space for you to go and have a space to come into. second the officers will help them to move along or if they
