ricketts announced on social media today that he "opposes efforts to resettle syrian refugees in nebraska." south dakota's governor has so far not shared his stance. tim: the governor of texas is especially outspoken on the matter. governor greg abbott is saying "no way" to future syrian refugees in his state. abbott spoke on his responsiblilty to keep the people of texas safe after a moment of silence outside his mansion. when we see the dangers that were caused by syrian refugees in paris, it is imperative that texas do everything we can to insure that we don't have a syrian refugee sneak into the state of texas who can pose a similar terroristic danger... tim: abbott says the attackin paris e an example of how syrian refugees could lead to a "catastrophic situation" jenna: president obama is falling on the opposite side of the coin when it comes to allowing those refugees into the country while speaking at the g-20 summit in turkey, president obama says shutting access to syrian refugees is not the right

who we are as americans, and it's not the basis on what our country was founded upon. (president obama) "we do not close our hearts to these victims of such violence. and somehow we start equating the issue of refugees with the issue of terrorism." jenna: the president's sentiment towards the syrian refugee issue isn't exactly how some potential president's are seeing the issue. tim: several republican candidates weighed in on the refugee situation today. donald trump says he's now more against allowing syrian refugees into the u.s. than ever. he's worried it could be a way for terrorists to sneak into the country. trump also says closing mosques across the u.s. is something he would "strongly consider" in the wake of the paris terror attacks. his comments come a day after france's interior minister called for shutting-

down french mosques where hate is preached. jenna: ben carson is also weighing in on the syrian refugee crisis. today while campaigning in las vegas, carson called for recognition to what he call a "major threat". well, of course you know, we don't apply religious test. but we do apply, we should apply ideological test. and i would be very reticent to bring in people who are ideologically opposed to the idea of america. carson says if someone can come up with an adequate vetting process for the syrian refugee crisis, he would be willing to consider it. tim: elsewhere on the campaign trail, iowa republican congressman steve king today announced who he's suporting for president. while in des moines, king said he's backing senator ted cruz. he says cruz is the one candidate who will fight for conservative principle (rep. steve king/(r) iowa. the candidate i'll be endorsing has been unmatched in his tenacity to take on the washington cartels. he knows how washington works and has successfully taken

on the dc elites. he has consistently stood on principle. cruz did not attend king's announcement. he was campaigning in south carolina. but cruz praised the decision in a statement, calling king a "courageous conservative" and one of the "few truly principled men and women" in washington. jenna: today, one of the largest for- profit education companies in the country. yielded their case in court the united states reached a settlement with "education management corporation", over allegations of illegal recruiting, consumer fraud, and other violations. attorney general loretta lynch announced the settlement today in washington. (loretta lynch/u.s. attorney general) " essentially, the more students a recruiter was induced to enroll in the school, the more money that that recruiter would receive

four separate federal lawsuits against e-d-m-c. the company operates schools under several brand names, including the art institutes, argosy university and brown-mackie college. more than 100- thousand people are enrolled in e-d-m-c schools. tim: expect to see all 5 of sioux city's swimming pools open again next summer. that's the recomendation from a "pools committee" examining the long term future of sioux city swimming pools. that committee has been meeting for months, but until today had not offered an official plan. in a unanimous vote, the committee also wants to see 3 city pools closed after next year. here's the breakdown.... replace leeds and cook pools with splash pads after 2016 season. replace leif erikson with a splash pad when it fails. built in 1977, engineers say leif erikson pool is sinking and would

need to be rebuilt. the committee is recomending the city look for a future pool site on the northside. the group also wants to close lewis pool.... but not until a new regional water park is built on the cities east side. riverside pool already includes some water park options and would remain open according to the plan. tim on cam the pools committee plans to hold a public meeting on the plan in the first week of december but a date has not been set. park and rec director matt salvatore says the plan still could be adjusted after that meeting. the plan will be presented for council approval at a later date. jenna: sioux city's new children's museum is welcoming its first big addition. launchpad children's museum's new climbing wall arrived today. first thing this morning, crews starting unloading the interactive exhibit. launchpad is expecting the rest of their exhibits to arrive over the next couple months before they open in february. valerie petersen says, "we are excited to be getting our exhibits in, and it just means we are getting closer and

still to come. for those of you who think coffee may be your life source, a new study says, you may be right, to an extent. details after the break.

"pick-me-up" but new research suggests daily coffee fix may lengthen your life here's abc's doctor. timothy johnson. " that steaming cup of coffee? it's the first thing you reach for when you roll out of bed in the morning. now, a new study suggests that whether that cup is brimming with decaf or the good stuff? it may help you live a longer life. researchers at the harvard school of public health? looking at data on hundreds of thousands of subjects in the famous nurses' health study? finding that those reporting higher consumption of total coffee, decaf coffee, and caffeinated coffee had a lower risk of dying earlier from any cause. non-smokers who drank between one and three cups of coffee per day had a 15 percent lower risk of dying earlier when compared to their non-coffee drinking counterparts. the association remained for those who drank a little more or a little less than 1-3 cups per day as well. but don't overdo it: the link was not as strong for those

who drank more than five cups of coffee per day. and of course, loading coffee with milk and sugar will do your body no favors.and there's no telling if the coffee itself can take full credit? or if some other factor is involved. so the bottom line? everything in moderation? but science may have just given you a new excuse to grab that espresso on your way to work. with this medical minute, i'm dr. timothy johnson." tim: after the break... a favorite local holiday event is back and benefiting big brothers big find out how you beatiful homes,
