san jose commute. >> that's what's happening "today in the bay." we'll be back in 25 min was a live news update. herself up as police stormed an apartment. seven others taken into custody. but did abdel amoud manage to slip away? plus two planes to paris were diverted overnight. leaving america very much on edge today wednesday, november 18th, 2015.

s. good morning. welcome to "today." it's 7:00 a.m. on the west coast. a very busy news morning. >> we are following breaking news out of france. a large scale police operation overnight directed at the mastermind of the paris terror attacks. officials initially believed he was in syria but information gathered from tapped phone conversations and surveillance led investigators to believe he might be hiding out on the outskirts of paris. >> today's siege happened in sain saint-denis. an apartment a mile from the soccer stadium attacked on friday. at least two people were killed. seven others have been arrested. >> in all police have carried out 414 raids arresting 64 people since friday's terror attack.

let's get right to nbc's chief foreign correspondent richard engel. richard, good morning. bring us up to date. >> reporter: good morning, savannah. it seems this time french police had very good intelligence because they came in force. apparently expecting a fight. they were ready for battle. amateur video captured some of the heavy automatic gunfire that erupted when french forces raided an apartment outside france this morning. the main target officials say was the alleged mastermind of the attacks. but as it began, a woman in the apartment blew up a suicide vest. we arrived a short while later. police here still seem very tense. they have sealed off some of the area. they are shining search lights onto the buildings, down the alleys. there's a helicopter above. this raid does not seem over yet. police ordered residents to stay inside. anyone who approached was told

in no uncertain terms to back away. neighbors, many of them muslim immigrants were evacuated by police and searched. we stopped abdul al jazeri who was running down the street. he said in arabic he witnessed the whole thing. i saw the raid. 20 cars passed by here then five minutes later the shooting started, he said. you heard the gunfire, i asked? i saw it with my eyes, he said. meanwhile, the police focused on one apartment on the third floor of this building. that neighbors say is the apartment where the raids targets were holed up. the main target was abdel haboud, the man they describe as the mastermind. a belgian national. he had gone to syria to join isis. it seems he managed to sneak back into the country. as day was breaking, the raid seemed to be winding down. but then several explosions echoed through the streets.

[ explosion ] it's common in situations like this for police to use grenades or small charges to set off booby traps the suspect may have set up. they are taking no chances. french officials say they have every reason to believe that the people who are in that apartment that was raided today possibly planning another terrorist attack. no specific plot was mentioned, but officials here say they were dangerous. matt, san van that, back to you. >> we are joined by the first secretary of homeland security under president george w. bush. and assistant director for the fbi. gentlemen, good morning to both of you. shawn, let me start with you.

savannah and i were just talk uing. does it surprise you this master mind is still in paris? doesn't it make sense to get out of the country before the attacks ever took place? >> you know, not necessarily, matt. he was deployed there for the attacks on friday, it appears. and if there were other attacks that were imminent and raids that we saw here this morning seemed to be a result of that, then he may have been there to direct those as well. as a general, if you will forward on the battle line opposed to more strategically back from syria or elsewhere. >> is it also possible he couldn't get out of the country? that once these attacks took place, it was much tougher as a proposition to get out of france? >> yeah, you know, paris they shut down people getting out of the city. there were a lot of police activities in the course of the days after friday. so he certainly could have been deterred from getting out. but also i know police are looking at the implications of

additional attacks. and they've been exploiting a media, digital evidence, cell phones, doing interviews trying to determine if there are other attacks imminent. this is a result of that. >> before we get to the secretary. on good news, bad news living in paris, the good news is law enforcement officials are reacting quickly and rounding up more suspects. the bad news is in neighborhoods, in your very midst there are still heavily armed terrorists. some with suicide vests. >> yeah. you're right, matt. we've been talking all week about the value of tactical intelligence and the need to disrupt these attacks in advance. police have been working around the clock not only in paris but elsewhere. these people are living among us. they're hiding in plain sight. oftentimes in neighborhoods and communities. the citizens shouldn't be afraid. but they need to be individual lent and recognize they are oftentimes the eyes and ears to help identify for police behavior that might be

indicative of other attacks. >> shawn, thank you very much. >> that's a good segue to tom ridge. good morning, sir. we don't want to alarm people because perhaps europe's situation is a great deal worse than ours is. however, do you see things in paris that could be replicated here? what is waking you up in the middle of the night these days? >> well, i think the tone of your question is precisely the right one. we allowed to be anxious because americans respond to those attacks just like we responded to 9/11. there was horror and sorrow. and we want to hold folks accountable. i think the advice that shawn said, we've got eyes and ears in the neighborhood. i think one of the challenges we have here is for the fbi to work more closely and collaboratively with the hundreds of thousands of men and women police forces at the state and local levels. they don't have the manpower to

do this. so let's empower them with information. >> we never want terrorists to be successful in carrying out an attack, but when they do carry something out, it opens a window for us. we learn things about their tactics and their structure and their organization. from where you're sitting, what are we learning about isis based on what we're seeing in paris? >> well, we know they're not a jv team or contained. we know they're amoeba-like. we know they have a significant reach. that's one of the reasons i would call for the use of the multiplier with the state and locals. arm them with the information. i wonder what would have happened had davis in boston been aware of the tsarnaev brothers in his presence. i think there are a lot of learnings. i think one of the things we need to learn and really learn to appreciate is the hundreds of thousands of men and women back home. you also have to start playing offense, matt. there's a lot of discussion about refugees these days. there's a serious problem there. we've got to play defense at home.

but the president can't let the clock run out. i know he loves basketball. you run out the clock when you're winning. we need to build a coalition to deal with this in syria as well. >> you mentioned here at home there are stories relating to this at home. stick around for a second. want to ask you about those in a second. the security concerns are here. they were evident overnight when two air france planes had to be divert z to other airports. in salt lake city, that's where one of those were held overnight. janet, what can you tell us? >> reporter: good morning. passengers are describing a frantic scene in the moments before that plane made an unscheduled landing. and then once on the ground. everything was inspected. the cargo, the baggage, and everyone from the passengers to the crew to the pilots were questioned by the fbi. just days after the paris terrorist attacks, nerve-racking moments for u.s. passengers. after bomb threats forced two air france flights bound for

paris to be diverted late tuesday. flight 65 from los angeles took off about 7:00 p.m. about two hours into the trip, diverted to salt lake city. >> fire command and off vehicles, the next aircraft on final is the emergency aircraft. >> reporter: shortly after flight 55 from washington dulles airport diverted to nova scotia. in a statement air france saying they were the subject of threats received by phone after their respective takeoffs. >> we're at a heightened level all the time at this point. >> they just said that there's going to be an emergency landing. very unnerving given the situation that has been going on over in france. >> reporter: elsewhere, a spirit airlines flight returned to the gate in baltimore after a female passenger became suspicious of a man watching a media report on a smartphone. four people were removed from the flight but no arrests. and in boston, an unruly woman was taken off a british airways

flight from london after trying to open an exit door mid-air. turns out she had too much to drink. air france flight 65 finally left salt lake airport at about 6:00 this morning. it is currently in the air pound for paris. the fbi now saying there was no credible evidence that these were true threats against -- they were true threats but no credible evidence to back them up. in this time of heightened concern, no one was taking any chances. back to you. >> better be safe than sorry. thank you. >> and security remains ramped up across the country. peter alexander is in washington. he's got more on that angle. peter, good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you. this morning we're inside the metro subway system. among those places bolstering security right now. that means more k-9 sweeps, more screenings for explosives at the entrances, and more officers systemwide. all a part of the new heightened state of alert.

the isis threat has americans on edge. no known threat but stepped up security no less. one maryland school district canceling field trips to the nation's capitol. and top security officials privately briefed house members on the latest intelligence about the paris attacks. >> there's no credible attack to the homeland but i think it's important the intelligence community looks at the risk of copy cats at home. >> reporter: fingerprints have been provided to the u.s. from french authorities. but no match with u.s. terror watch lists. intelligence officials tell nbc's pete williams that terror data bases here have 2800 names with connections to france. 800 names tied with syria. they're also beefing up watch on known terror suspects here. roughly 50 are getting the highest level of attention.

and as for the ongoing fight over refugees, the number of governor who is are either opposing, refusing, or suspending the resettlement of refugees are now 31. almost all of them republicans. president obama blasted the rhetoric saying you can't think of a more potent recruitment tool for isis. he mocked what he described as a fear of widows and orphans. >> peter, thank you so much. we want to turn again to former homeland security director tom ridge. there was another technical piece of this. how these terrorists are using encrypted channels. it's getting harder and harder for our good guys to listen in on the bad guys' conversation. there's even a conversation that silicon valley should get involved. is it feasible? >> i think the director made several trip there is employing them to assist. one of the incredible ironies is

that isis rejects the modern world and yet they use the modern world and the technology of the modern world and social media and the internet to spread their ideology to recruit, et cetera, et cetera. i think director comy is on track. it's a challenge for the fbi and law enforcement. >> when you were secretary of homeland security, we had that color coded security alert system. if you were in that position now, would we be at red alert in this country right now? >> i couldn't tell you because i don't know what the intelligence is, but as much maligned at the time that i do think it was designed that when they had credible information, either sector specific or nationally, they could use it to alert folks. what folks never understood was every color represented a level of security. the challenge since 9/11 is that we know that the intelligence and law enforcement community, if they get specific threats

they will act immediately. it's the unknown that is the unknown that's the real challenge right now. all the more reason to use the force multiplier. use the folks on the streets in these communities. all the more reason to start playing offense. it's about time somebody led the coalition. we got some leadership. it may have to come from president hollande. this president that's spent more time criticizing republicans than refugees. he ought to be providing the leadership the rest of the world looks to. right now there's no leadership from americans. i think it's about time the president understands he's commander in chief until january 2017. it's time to lead. >> there are so many issues raised by the attacks. thank you for being with us. >> thank you. now we want to turn to the race for the white house. republican hopeful ben carson is pushing back this morning after his -- about his knowledge on foreign policy. nbc's hallie jackson has more on that.

good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning, matt. in a time when the paris attacks have put national security front and center on the campaign trail, this morning ben carson and his campaign are really hitting back against a story that one of carson's own advisers thinks he's struggling to get a handle on foreign policy issues. this morning the doctor's on defense. ben carson under fire after reports he's failing on foreign policy. >> well, you know, i think that's a narrative that people want to paint. >> reporter: a "new york times" article quotes one of his national security advisers saying carson can't get one iota of intelligent information about the middle east and amid briefings on the situation so we can, quote, make him smart. indicted for lying to congress during a scandal but was later pardoned. carson now distancing himself. >> he is not my adviser. he is a person who has come in on a couple of our sessions to offer his opinions about what

was going on. >> reporter: carson has seemed to stumble on foreign policy before like this moment during last week's debate. >> we also need to recognize it's a complex place. the chinese are there as well as the russians. >> reporter: the white house shooting down the china claim and on sunday when carson was asked on fox news who he'd call first if the paris attacks happened on his watch, he refused to answer. three times. >> who would you call first? but who would you call first specifically? but can you tell us who you would call first, sir? on the international scene. >> i would call for all of the arab states to be involved in this. >> reporter: the candidate implying now those are got ya moments. >> i know how that works. it's silly. >> reporter: he acknowledges he's on a learning curve when it comes to foreign policy. but his supporters seem to like it. >> refreshing to have somebody that's not a politician.

>> reporter: the campaign tells me this morning they don't think any of this will hurt carson with voters pointing out he gets daily briefings and that he's worked in or visited 57 countries. they're also drawing a comparison to another high-profile republican who was slammed for his lack of experience before he was elected. ronald reagan. >> all right. hallie jackson, thank you very much. let's turn to al now. a lot of people dealing with severe weather this morning. >> all across the country. it's just going to continue today. let's look at what happened yesterday in seattle and spokane. three people have been killed by falling trees, thousands without power. a mess there. lots of flooding as well. we move to denver where they've been dealing with blizzard-like conditions. uptowards of a hundred vehicles stalled. hundreds of flights canceled at denver airport. that is winding down. the wind storm is making its way east. look what happened in memphis, tennessee. lots of trees down. thousands without power this morning as you see all the

damage caused by falling trees, downed power lines, big problems there. and there is more on the way. remember yesterday when i was talking about how we were going to see this line of storms developing? you can see right now there is a line of storms currently. take a look at what we showed you yesterday, the future cast, and look at how it lines up. exactly the same. and this is what we're going to be dealing with today as this system moves to the east. as that front pushes east. we're going to see winds, rain. much needed rain in the northeast. but in the meantime, you've got flash flood watches in effect from new orleans to north carolina. 12 million people at risk. rainfall today. 1 to 2 inches per hour. look for rain delays from mobile on into roanoke. 3 to 5 inch there is. and tomorrow look for airport delays from washington, d.c. up into new york anywhere from 1 to 3 inches of rain possible. we're going to get to your local forecast coming up in e the next 30 seconds

high speed chase ends in a deadly crash. today in the bay's bob redell is live in south san jose... what started as a high-speed chase ended in a deadly crash in san jose. this is the aftermath at winchester and 280 this morning. that car stolen this morning. the driver now dead, his passenger in the hospital after they weaved their way crisscrossing off and on the freeway in the south bay from 101 to 280 eventually ending there at winchester. the chp has taken the female driver into custody this morning. 7:26. time for a look at the morning forecast with kari. >> it is cool to start. let's take a look at this

beautiful sunrise from belvedere, a few high clouds streaming in. temperatures in the mid 40s, even low 50s as you head toward san francisco. hour by hour in walnut creek, temperatures making it into the upper 70s, so feeling much more comfortable as we go through the day. let's look at the compute with mike. >> after a string of crashes, i think there were a total of five in the last hour between 880 and wolf road. a driver drive for northbound 280 off 101 at the interchange. that's the worst of it for san jose, forcing more folks north on 101 getting around the scene. they're still going to end up getting into the traffic flow. the rest of the bay a typical commute. across the east bay across the dumbarton and san mateo bridge, you expect that. recovery continues for the eastshore freeway, the worst hit by the early crash on the bay bridge which has been clear for an hour and a half. it's slow because of the metering lights. another local news update in

half an hour. i'll see you then.

it's 7:30 now on a wednesday morning, the 1th of november. we've got breaking news out of france at this hour. a massive terror raid carried out on the outskirts of paris, and the target of a seven-hour siege. the alleged mastermind of last friday's attacks, abdelhamid abaaoud. >> but this morning his whereabouts and fate still very much in question. "nbc nightly news" anchor lester holt is in zen we new developments on the raid. lester, good morning to you. >> reporter: all right. good morning, matt. president hollande saying we have neutralized terrorists here today referring to that overnight operation. seven people taken into custody for questioning. two others were killed. police staging a dramatic raid about 4:30 in the morning here.

they were met by a woman with a suicide vest. she detonated killing herself and injuring several of the police officers and killing a police dog as well. what followed for the next several hours were sporadic exchanges of gunfire that had people cowering in their apartments here as they listened to it. there were several explosions after about the third hour of this, and shortly thereafter police say the operation was over. they have acknowledged that they were targeting the people involved in friday's attack, including the possible mastermind, abdelhamid abaaoud. they have not said whether he is among those taken into custody or whether the two outstanding attackers that they have been looking for were part of this. they have only said they have been taken into questioning. fact that they were met with someone with a suicide vest, of course, leads to the unsettling speculation as to whether more attacks were planned here in paris. this is a northeast suburb just of the outskirts of central paris, about half hour from here. again, the operation is over as

to who they have and what they have uncovered. we're still waiting to hear. we'll keep you posted and back to you now. >> lester holt in paris, lester, thank you very much. >> as we've been talking about all morning, the downing of the russian jetliner have really heightened concerns over security here at home and this morning we have a startling undercover investigation that's tied to airport security. today, national investigative correspondent jeff rossen is here with that. good morning to you. >> good morning. here we are just over a week to thanksgiving, the busiest travel season of the year. when you get to the airport and you hit the tsa security checkpoint, all know how it goes, right. laptops out, belts off, shoes off, all to make sure you aren't carrying any dangerous weapons, but this morning a new security breech sounding the alarm, and wait until you see what we were able to get through security. it is a shocking security breech. this man says he just carried a loaded gun on to a commercial

flight in atlanta. the tsa never found it. >> had it laying in my backpack right here, and i said mother of god. >> reporter: that's right. a semiautomatic pistol. he says he forgot it was this his carry-on. completely missed by tsa workers on the x-ray machine. >> how did that get on that plane. for the safety of the people of the united states. we need to tighten up. >> reporter: and it's hardly the first time. during the tsa's own internal investigation this year 67 out of 70 times someone was able to carry weapons and fake explosive devices right through security, undetected. that's an astounding 95% failure rate. so could it really be that easy to smuggle banned items, potential weapons past screeners. my team and i fanning out across the country. we'll start at l.a.x. at the airport right now and i bought this swiss army knife, and i'm going to put it inside of my bag right in the middle. right over there. and we're going to see if they find it. good news.

they stopped me and confiscate the knife, but across the country in atlanta my producer jovanna has another swiss army knife. >> i've got the swiss army knife and i'll put it right here in my wallet. >> reporter: tsa screeners don't catch it. at the gate and look what got through. they didn't even pause on my bag. think that's bad? my producer josh has a pair of sharp scissors. >> got the scissors and the blade is longer than 4 inches and i'll stick them down here in my bag and zip it up. >> reporter: gets them right through, no problem. >> here we are at the gate and take a look. still have them. shocking. >> reporter: but the most disturbing security breech of all, these box cutters, the same weapon the 9/11 hijackers used. seen here on surveillance video walking through the checkpoint back then. now 14 years later watch what happens at newark. >> i've got a box cutter here and i'll close it up and put it deep inside my bag here and zip

it up. here i am at gate about to board my flight and take a look. got it right through. so scary. >> reporter: yes. he just got a box cutter past the tsa. >> fundamentally tsa hasn't changed since 9/11. we make the same mistakes over and over. >> reporter: anthony roman is an aviation security expert. when you see our results, we were able to get three of the four banned items we wanted to get through through, undetected and no questions asked. as a family man myself how concerned should i be? >> you need to have a level of concern. these weapons are deadly weapons and can kill, and we absolutely need to do a better job. >> reporter: the tsa declining our request for an on-camera interviews instead telling nbc

news' dave epstein saying, "for any prohibited item to pass through security and they frequently conduct testing and have implemented changes to better deter, detect and disrupt any threat of potential terrorism." is this a wake-up call for tsa in washington and every airport across the country? >> it is a wake-up call. there are good rules and regulations in place for tsa to perform their job. it's a failure of accountability on the management level and on the officer level. >> reporter: eye-opening for sure. by the way, after getting all of those items past security, we went back to the checkpoints and told them they missed them and returned the items voluntarily. one tsa worker even telling us she's embarrassed and wished all passengers were as honest as us. of course, they are aren't, of course. the bad guys aren't, and the tsa does say they confiscate thousands of items a year. experts, as you can see, just not enough. >> a high failure rate, that's for sure. >> jeff, thank you very much. >> let's get a check of the weather now from mr. roker. >> some of that air travel is going to be a little on the bumpy side today because we've

got a lot of wind going on. all right. on the west coast, we've got a big area of high pressure. mid-section of the country we've got low pressure and then as we make our way to the east over the northeast we've got a big area of high pressure, so the difference between those pressure systems basically set up pressure gradients. those bands of pressure squeezing the wind between them, so as that happens we'll be looking at a lot of wind. in fact, we've got high wind watches and warnings out through the pacific northwest into the plains. in fact parts of wyoming already reporting wind gusts of 85 miles per hour or more and could get up to 100-mile-per-hour winds. winds in bismarck 26 and omaha today will see wind gusts of 22 miles per hour, and as we make our way further to the west, chicago, st. louis, louisville, we are looking at a lot of winds over the next several days. power outages, downed trees and high profile vehicles like 18 wheelers have to be careful and, of course, there will be airport delays. that's what's going on around the country and here's what's happening in y windy in the bay area, too,

especially as we go into the afternoon. now in the mid 40s, low 50s in san francisco. look for a high of 66 degrees in san francisco. in the east bay 67 degrees. more spots hitting 70 degrees like the north bay and the tri-valley. in the peninsula, 67 degrees, winds 25 to 30 as we go into later on this afternoon into the evening hours. >> get that weather any time you need it, weather channel on cable and weather.com online. >> thanks, al. coming up next, how people are reacting to charlie sheen's announcement here on the show that he's hiv-positive. >> a live concert from justin bieber who says it will be his biggest ever with a few surprises, but, first, these

literally dead. on "inside edition." bri olson, one of sheen's ex-girlfriends seen here in 2011 says despite what he told matt the actor never disclosed to her his hiv status. >> like playing russian roule e roulette. >> reporter: this morning sheen was reportedly not hiv-positive at the time of the relationship and at least one other woman says sheen never told her he was hiv-positive either. that woman has sought legal counsel. sheen says he's had unprotected sex with two women since his diagnosis and amanda bruce is one of those women. >> i think the real russian roulette comes forward with not coming forward about conditions you have or having unprotected sex frequently with partners. >> reporter: sheen's doctor said his bloodwork shows an undetectable level of the hiv virus but recommends he use protection and specialist dr. robert bowland says the only time you know from a blood test

happy birthday. i just had a heart attack... and now i have a choice. for her. for them. and him. a oice to take brilinta. a prescription for people who've been hospitalized for a heart attack. i take brilinta with a baby aspirin ...no more than 100 mg. as it affects how well it works. it's such an important thing to do to help

protect against another heart attack. brilinta worked better than plavix. and even reduced the chances of dying from another one. don't stop taking brilinta without talking to doctor. since stopping it too soon increases your risk of clots in your stent, heart attack, stroke, and even death. brilinta may cause bruising or bleeding more easily or serious, sometimes fatal bleeding. don't take brilinta if you have bleeding, like stomach ulcers. a history of bleeding in the brain, or severe liver problems. tell your doctor about bleeding, new or unexpected shortness of breath, any planned surgery and all medicines you take. i will take brilinta today. tomorrow. and every day for as long as my doctor tells me. don't miss a day of brilinta.

... ==anim== new video... ==topvo== of the moment an out of control good wednesday morning. it's 8:56. new video of the moment that an out of control tour bus trashed last friday in san francisco's union square. that injured 20 people. video here shows the bus careening through i object sections before it plows into scaffolding. the driver says a small explosion, perhaps from the compressed air brake system, made the driver lose control.

the attorney also says nothing else worked, including trying to turn off the transmission. police are trying to figure out what caused that crash. investigators looking very closely at a mechanical failure. you can only imagine if you were seeing it happen in real time what that must have been like. we will send you back to the "today" show. the music continues.

this morning on "today's take" pop superstar justin bieber is a man with a purpose as he takes our concert stage for one more song. then, one of "people" magazine's sexiest men alive dennis quaid is here with a new project, and it's turkey time. we've got the crafts and packs for your thanksgiving feast. all that and more coming up now. from nbc news this the requests today's take" with al roker, natalie morales, willie geist and tamron hall. live from studio 1a in rockefeller playsa. welcome to "today," it's wednesday morning, november 18, 2015. i'm willie along with al and tamron. natalie had to leave a little early this morning for an assignment. big crowd outside. justin bieber is our concert star and will have a song for us

in just a moment but we do want to begin in paris where this morning police carried out a raid and engaged in a long shootout north of the city. richard engel is in saint-denis for us. richard, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, willie. that raid took place in a house on the street behind me. it began around 4:30 this morning and police were apparently expecting a fight. they came in heavily armed. hundreds of officers, and as soon as they entered into an apartment on the third floor a woman inside was apparently wearing a suicide vest. she detonated that vest killing herself and injuring five of the police officers. french president says that seven people were arrested. two of what he's calling the terrorists were killed in that apartment. there's been no identification of the phr te suspect, the main target of this raid, we are told, is the mastermind of the paris attacks, a belgian national wanted for a long time for his involvement and his

isis. officials are now trying to verify whether they got him or not. they are not saying anything to the press as this investigation is ongoing. willie. >> richard engel just outside paris for us. thank you so much, richard. >> late yesterday bomb threats forced two air france flights bound for paris to be divert. one flight from l.a.x. landed in salt lake city and a second flight from washiod n halifax, nova scotia. unanimous threats were received at those planes by phone. fbi says there was no though credible evidence to suggest that those were real. meanwhile, overseas, a sports stadium in germany full of thousands of fans was evacuated after intelligence said an attack was planned. no bomb was found there. there were some signs of unity though in london at wembley stadium where fans sang the french national anthem before a soccer match between france and england. listen. ♪

>> beautiful moment there in london. prince william was in the crowd and he laid a wreath before the match. also we've got a nice piece of video to show you. here's prince william late wreath before the match began. some nice video as well. a reporter from france's "le petit journal" interviewing a young son with his father about who happened.

>> that's a beautiful moment. >> if you're listening on sirius xm and don't know what they were saying, basically a father at memorial telling his young son that the flowers and candles are here to protect us, a way of explaining what's happening and making some sense of it anyway to a child. >> go ahead. i was thinking you both are parents, and, you know, i'm very close to my nieces and nephews, my niece's birthday is in march and wants to go to paris and this weekend i had to explain to her why we may not go on this trip, thinking about it, and i thought about you guys and parents who so often, whether it's something like this or even a tragedy in your family, losing a loved one, how do you explain this, and complexity of this. >> yeah. >> when your children happen to tune in and it's eveüq)e, how do you tell them about something like? and i know it sounds like one

those tv questions. >> it's real. >> i was thinking about it this weekend. >> absolutely is. i've got a 13-year-old, a 17-year-old and a 28-year-old, and each one of them were concerned, and in fact courtney my oldest was calling me, saying, dad, have you heard about this. supposedly there's some chatter about something going on here. i mean, kids are -- no matter how old you are, adults, are now concerned about this, and, you know, we have to -- as we did after 9/11 at a certain point you say we've got to keep moving and have to live our lives and you just try to be as vigilant as possible. >> my kids are 6 and 8 and this is obviously tough stuff for kids that age. what we do is just answer their questions. they live in the world. they got other kids at school and they hear about it and listen to them and answer their questions as they come up. we don't plop them down in front of "nightly news" or cnn and have them watch all the coverage. it's happening and kids at school are saying could it happen in new york and we try to answer honestly the questions they give us. >> what's interesting earlier in our program jeff rossen was on

with this rossen investigates, always been concerned about tsa which went into effect after 9/11 and the an atlanta man was able to bring a loaded gun by accident, he forgot, brought a semiautomatic saying he didn't know, forgot about it. got through security just on november 5th. take a listen. >> this it laying in my backpack right here and i said mother of god. how did that get on that plane? for the safety of the people of the united states, we need to tighten up. >> and so that's why jeff's undercover team investigated, and they got three of the four banned items through. they got at swiss army knife, a sharp pair of scissors in atlanta and a pair of box cutters in newark. now during the tsa's own internal investigation this year, 67 out of 70 times somebody was able to carry a weapon or face explosive device through security undeterkt the. that's 95% of the time people

were able to get stuff through undetected. that is frightening. >> it is frightening. you don't want to beat down on these men and women who are tsa agents but you do have to look at tsa leadership and say what is their plan? are they going to implement something to improve this, and they have talked a lot about it, but jeff rossen just filed this report well after the tsa studies showed that they failed 95% of the time. >> tsa says in their statement it's unanable for any prohibited item to pass through security undetect. they frequently test and have implemented systematic changes to better deter, detect and disrupt any threat of potential terrorism and a lot of people are very vigilant in that organization, but obviously they have some systemic issues that they need to address. >> clearly. this is not big sophisticated stuff we're talking about. box cutters, does that set off an alarm after 9/11 terrorists. >> a basic handgun that was in there. again, i agree with you. i have respect for the tsa

agents who are doing the best they can, wait in the long lines for 15 years and you go through this thing and people say it's security theater. not actually protecting ourselves. unfortunately, these results confirm some that have. >> and we keep getting the same statement saying they are implementing things to change but whenever they are tested like in the case of jeff rossen, they fail, and to your point, it wasn't a sophisticated thing that jeff and his team d.incredible. >> just walked on, boom in, a backpack. not like it was in a secret compartment. >> crazy. can we lighten the mood just a bit. >> great idea. >> so yesterday, of course, we had on our buddy -- you know, he's our buddy. >> is he really in. >> not really. sound lie we're cool -- >> i wish he was our buddy. >> senator john mccain calls everybody our friend. mark randy johnson was here hanging with us and there's a video mash-up gone viral, classic dance scenes from movies all set to mark's "uptown funk." are you ready. >> hit it.
