end now. >> reporter: the crisis was sparked by the release of police dash cam video showing a white policeman shooting black teenager laquan mcdonald 16 times. for over a years, emanuel's administration fought to keep the video under wraps. >> everyday we held onto the video contributed to the public's distrust. that needs to change. >> reporter: other police killings have reawakened historic complaints of police brutality, prompting ining ema force his police superintendent to resign. after initially opposing a federal investigation of schiff's police department, emanuel now welcomes it. >> he said he owns this problem. and he is in the midst of trying to figure out a way to move forward. right now, very difficult. >> reporter: now, a bill was introduced into the illinois legislature on wednesday that

and syed farook and tashfeen malik were radicalized before they even met. and we are in oregon and one of the roads leading into this town is under water. in washington state, a state of emergency. >> reporter: i love the christmas decorations that are below us, it looks like a fuzzy blob, but for those laser lights that are not properly installed, those laser lights could shine into an airplane's cockpit. hillary clinton's rival said the debate schedule was put together to protect hillary clinton. hillary can avoid any gaffs if she sticks to small audiences, i suggest she appear only at martin o'malley events.

. i'm tony rose with gayle king and norah o'donnell. the fbi confirms this morning that the san bernardino attackers had thought about terrorism for years. the fbi director said that syed rizwan farook and tashfeen malik talked with about jihad in 2013, that was before isis rose to the power in syria and before they started dating online. he was asked if the marriage was part of the plot. >> is there any evidence that this marriage was arranged by a terrorist organization or a terrorist operative or was it just a meeting on the intermet? >> i don't know the answer to that yet. >> do you agree that it was arranged by a terrorist operative, it would be a game changer? >> that would be a very important thing to know. >> officials are now looking to charge enrique marquez, that's farook's friend and former

neighbor who bought the assault weapons used in last week's attacks. he told investigators that he and farook planned an attack back in 2012, but they did not followthrough. and donald trump said all options are open if republican leaders don't treat him with delawad deck corps rum and respect. critics have called the call to ban muslims into the country is not. >> i am the least racist person that you have ever met. i am the least racist person. >> are you buiigoted in any way? >> i don't think so, no. >> islamophobe? >> i am a person who happens to be very smart. >> you say no muslims can travel here from overseas, you're hurting the united states' position against isis, we need the friendly muslim nations w nu

can't insult them like that. >> i i disagree, people have to be vetted, people have to be properly vetted. >> but you can't insult the whole religion. >> this is about security, it's not about religion. >> i don't think you thought through the consequences of banning an entire religion from coming to the united states. >> president obama did not mention trump has he marked wednesday's 150th anniversary of the abboll legs of slavery. >> remember that our freedom is bound up with the dream of others, regardless of what they look like, where they come from or what their nationality is or what faith they practice. >> that comment drew sustained applause. >> peggy noonan is with us, she is a "wall street journal" columnist, and she is the author of "the time of our lives."

good morning. >> good morning. >> first of all, donald trump canceling his trip to israel? >> i think that was in response to mr. netanyahu saying he didn't agree with trump's immigration plans, i think mr. trump didn't like that so he cancelled the state visit, i suspect his supporters will think, good on you. that's what a president -- >> after i become president, i will meet with him. >> yes, yes, yes. >> what do republicans do with his threat to run as a third party candidate? >> it's very interesting to me that donald trump really strategically reminds the republican party through his tweets, et cetera, my numbers are great. i could come at you, i could go third party, i think we should all just remember that. it is in its way a form of blackmail. it's treat me well, no matter what i do, or i'll buck against you guys, and you're not going do like it.

>> so if republicans do not agree with donald trump, what should they do? is this a problem that needs to be handled? >> i think it's delicate in a few ways, i know republican leaders and star warts and state people feel two things, one is that they can not win the presidency with trump, and the other is they can not win the presidency without the support of trump's followers. so it's a delicate little thing, you oppose trump seriously and with respect along the way when you disagree with him, but -- and i don't think it would be very smart for them to do what they were talking about doing with him three weeks ago, let's raise a lot of money and attack this guy and slam him. the voters will figure it of the. >> the argument has been made that you can't win without trump's supporters, what about the counter argument that you can't win without those who are nontrump republicans and those who want to be republicans that may not espouse those kinds of

beliefs or values or rhetoric? >> this is primaries are for, donald trump is like 32%, 35%. that means there's 65% of the party that is not for him. as this thing goes forward, as the primaries go forward, to the primary in south carolina is going to narrow down and you're going to see trump or who that person is narrow down. here's part of trump's power. it's not just -- i think the big cliche is that he says wild things and wild people support him. he is expressing a plan to deal with something very serious americans' serious anxiety about its visa programs, it's immigration stuff. we all have a sense of wow, who's watching the store as people try to come into america? he's coming forward and saying,

i share your concerns, he does it badly, bombastically and in a way that appeals to unattractive things. but the issue itself is a serious one deserving respect. >> you believe what he says as some have described it as un-american? >> i think if you evoke in a positive way japanese internment camps during world war ii, not seeming to know that that is an american embarrassment and shame, not an american achievement, you are going over, not just lines, be but you're crossing a kind of lovely cultural politics that we all try to keep going in america. >> here's my -- here's my problem. we have not -- >> forgive me, nora, but not only have i not seen one like him, with but i believe he is the beginning of something in the american political process as cycles go forward, more

strangers from the outside, more bombast, kanye west in 20/20. i think we're going down some of those roads. >> i was going to say the focus on personality has been a distraction from the focus on policy and the real policy issues facing this country, including a report yesterday that the middle class that used to be the majority, is no longer the majority, it's either the rich or the poor in this country. and the serious discussion that policymakers and lawmakers should have serious discussions about instead we focus on personality. >> and japanese internment camps, that would come up. >> to eme that would be the primary debate about this campaign, and it will become part of it too, it's an economic issue. >> good to see you. they run and play like any other dog you know, we'll ,,
