7:09 am
stream of harsh tweets about kelly, sharing one comment from someone who called her a bimbo. the tirade prompted his long-time political advisor, roger stone, to resign, saying provocative media fights have overwhelmed your core message. i can no longer remain involved in your campaign. trump's top opponents said he's hurting the party. >> do we want to win? do we want to insult 53% of all voters? mr. trump ought to apologize. >> the kind of rhetoric we've heard of late from mr. trump just is not appropriate in a presidential election. >> reporter: carly fiorina, the only woman in the gop race, weighed in on "face the nation." >> i think women of all kinds are really sort of horrified by this. >> reporter: and kelly said her questions were meant to probe every candidate's weaknesses. >> if you can't get past me, how are you going to handle vladimir putin? >> reporter: trump lashed out at several of his detractors tweeting that fiorina's voice gives him a massive headache and calling conservative blogger

7:11 am
past few months it was because he was talking about big issues, immigration, get america back on track, look at policy proposals. in the past three, four days he's devolved into this guy who's just splenetic and insulting everybody and putting down women, who are like 52% or 53% of the voting electorate in a presidential year. so that's all crazy, it can't be doing him any good. >> do you think there's long-lasting damage for the party based on what he said? i mean jeb bush finally said this has got to stop. you can't insult 53% of the electorate. >> and lindsey graham said, i think, something like that. we'll see. it's possible that trump will have a poisonous effect on the reputation of the republican presidential field, but i still can't help but think people see trump as trump, not as, quote, republican but as the donald. so we'll see. >> of the groups that he's offended, how does he grow his
7:12 am
support from there? he's got to start talking about policy at some point. >> he ought to make that shift real soon. and we'll see. he loves to be on the media, he loves to be the focus of all eyes, he loves to be the big dog. he'll be making pronouncements i'm sure over the next few days and try to dig himself out but i suspect he's done himself real damage by revealing a deeper coarseness and almost brutality that a lot of people would have thought was there. >> what do you mean coarseness and brutality? >> when you talk about women and the way he does. and also that megyn kelly question in which she quoted him at length. it startled even me, and i am a new yorker. i've been watching and seeing donald trump for a quarter century. so i was startled. if i was startled, probably a number of people were startled. >> by the quality of what he said? >> yes, by the nature of his insults. >> thank you, peggy. >> thank you. the faa is investigating new reports this morning of a drone
7:13 am
flying dangerously close to airliners. the faa says four planes approaching newark, new jersey, on sunday all reported a drone in their airspace. >> we just saw the drone at 3,000 here. >> you saw the drone? >> 3,000 feet, it was probably about 400 off the left wing. >> about how far off the left you said? >> about a quarter of a mile. >> thankfully all four flights did land safely. jfk had three drone sightings just a week ago. this morning the epa is taking the blame for a huge leak of contaminated water into a colorado river. government officials said 3 million gallons spilled into the river. that is three times larger than the original estimate. the once clean waterway used to look like this. it is a popular place for kayakers. see how the same stretch of river is now, spilled with yellow contaminated water. unbelievable.
7:14 am
mireya villareal is along the river. >> reporter: good morning. fire days after the accident wastewater laced with heavy metals continues to flow into the river you see behind me. it's flowing at a rate of 500 gallons per minute. the epa says they do not believe it's a danger to wildlife, but the danger to humans is still unknown. the toxic sludge reached new mexico this weekend, disrupting life along the animus river. >> i'm here on my property and i cannot shower, i cannot cook, i cannot do anything with the water from my water well. >> reporter: the epa triggered the massive leak last week after a cleanup crew accidentally breached a debris dam in the mine which has been closed since 1923. since then, the toxic spill has stretched for more than 100 miles from colorado through new mexico and is creeping closer to utah, bringing with it chemicals, including lead, arsenic and copper. in a conference call sunday, the
7:15 am
epa revealed that in the durango, colorado, area of the river, levels of lead uncreased around 3500 times but dropped as the plume passed. >> yes, those numbers are high and they are scary because they seem so high. however, risk associated with exposure to the chemical is not just a matter of the toxicity of the chemical, it's also a matter of the exposure. >> reporter: the epa has come under fire for waiting nearly 24 hours before notifying communities. >> the magnitude of it was -- you can't even describe it. >> reporter: new mexico's governor blasted the agency after seeing the damage firsthand. >> it is completely irresponsible for the epa not to have informed the state of new mexico immediately. we could have worked faster and harder to minimize the impact on this state. >> reporter: it's unclear how much polluted water remains in the mine. for now the epa has set up two containment ponds to treat the yellow sludge near the site of
7:16 am
the spill. the city of durango has declared a state of local emergency. the epa, however, has said they do not believe there is any evidence of human health concerns, although residents downstream have reported water discoloration. >> thank you. this morning massive wildfires are forcing more people from their homes in the west. the willow fire in western arizona prompted the evacuation of about a thousand homes. there are more than 35 major wildfires burning across the west right now. northwest of sacramento the new jerusalem fire forced more people out of their homes. it tore through a thousand acres since starting yesterday. crews worry it might merge with the massive rocky fire. football fans this morning are remembering frank gifford as a hall of fame player and a pioneering broadcaster. gifford died at home sunday of natural causes. he was 84 years old. his wife, kathie lee gifford, wrote on twitter that she is, quote, deeply grateful to all of

8:05 am
than ever. super pacs spending hundred of millions. we have 15 months to go and we're nowhere near the beginning of this. >> how do we stop the madness? >> you can't. and that's the problem because candidates are being rewarded for it. people who protest bernie sanders get tremendous publicity. i'm amazed the sanders thing did not get more focused. this guy could win in iowa, new hampshire and we've always assumed that hillary clinton would be the democratic nominee. on the republican side trump has a base of somewhere between 15% and 18% that will stay with him no matter what he says, no matter what he does. now imagine, who would have thought that you could criticize george will, charles krauthammer, megyn kelly, he's going after me for call me adunce. if my mama's alive she would have called him up and ridiculed hime. my mom spent a lot of money sending me to oxford. >> you said on friday witnessing

8:07 am
support. would be more likely to go -- >> is that or worried about insulting trump because of what he does to people who criticize him? ? we're afraid, that is what you're saying, we're afraid of the people who are running for office who are afraid of what they will do to us? my god, that is where politics has gone to? this is -- >> what is the reluctance of candidates to criticize him? >> because they don't -- at this point they're trying to learn from what happened in 1992. the republican party condemned ross perot and those voters went to the democrats when it was all over. this time, they're trying to not to condepp trumpites to maybe win them back. that's 20% of the electorate. >> who has political capital to stand up. >> ted cruz, he's clearly anti-establishment. frankly, chris christie could do it. i'm surprised he didn't. christie picked the wrong fight. his fight was with rand paul, who is not significant in the race at this point. he should have picked it with
