experiences are. i think he to answer for it. >> reporter: jagmeet singh called it troubling and insulting. with canada's federal election just over a month away, the fallout could cast a shadow over trudeau's campaign. >> why didn't you tell people sooner? >> i'm talking about it now. >> reporter: that question comes after u.s. politicians have been called out as racists for wearing dark make-up in the past. >> i don't have any excuses for that i did. >> reporter: virginia governor ralph northam was accused of wearing black face in this photo from the 1980s. he talked about the controversy with gayle king in february. >> the man you're looking at and talking to right now is not who i was. >> reporter: as a leader on the international stage, trudeau says his focus now is moving forward. >> i think what is important is that, yes, people get challenged on mistakes they've made in the past. that they recognize those mistakes and pledge to do better. that's what we expect of people. >> reporter: in a statement,

conservative party and official opposition later andrew sheer said trudeau is not fit to govern. when asked by reporters if he would resign from office, trudeau did not offer a direct response. i think that it would be interesting, you know what you've done, you know what pictures you've taken. if people would come out ahead of this stuff, you had almost 20 years to say, let me talk about this now. >> exactly right. >> i made a mistake. >> it makes it worse when people find it. >> i hope others are listening thinking, you know, jericka's right. maybe i have something to say. >> maybe i should look in my yearbook. >> thank you. new information about a whistleblower's claim that is bringing a top intelligence official to capitol hill for closed door testimony later today. weijia jiang is at the white house with more on this story. how did this start? >> reporter: we are ststill waiting to find out a lot of the details about this which remain a mystery. here's what we know this morning

-- the inspector general for the intelligence community who is testifying on capitol hill today concluded that a complaint filed back in august was credible enough to be considered, quote, an urgent concern. the "washington post" is reporting that an interaction between president trump and a foreign leader is at the center of a whistleblower report which included a promise that was so troubling it prompted a u.s. intelligence official to come forward. house intelligence committee chairman adam schiff has issued a subpoena to obtain the complaint. but the acting director of national intelligence, joseph maguire, is refusing to hand over that report for now. maguire says he determined the allegations did not merit urgent concern, and since they relate to a person outside of the intel community, he does not need to pass them along to capitol hill. schiff pointed out this is the first time a director of intelligence overruled the decision of the inspector general and raised concerns that this refusal may indicate a cover-up to protect president trump. on sunday, schiff said on "face the nation" that it is fair to

assume this report involves the president, people around him, or both. anthony? >> thanks. still so much we don't know there. we're learning new details about the case of an airline mechanic accused of sabotaging an american airlines jetliner. prosecutors say evidence unveiled at the suspect's bail hearing revealed he stored isis videos on his phone and made statements wishing allah would harm non-muslims. kris van cleave is at reagan national airport outside washington. what else do we know about the suspect? >> reporter: good morning. he is iraqi born but a naturalized u.s. citizen. as an airline mechanic, he passed regular background checks and had no criminal record at the time of his arrest. certainly these new allegations are going to raise new questions about the vetting process around everyone who works near airplanes. accused of sabotaging an american airlines flight, 60-year-old mechanic abdul-majeed marouf ahmed alani remains behind bars after a

federal judge cited new evidence he could be sympathetic to terrorists. the judge denied bail deeming him a danger and a flight risk. haroro ingram is a former counter terrorism expert. >> it's something they'll be very, very concerned about. >> in the tower, american 28-34, we've got to work a maintenance issue. >> reporter: july 17th, alani allegedly super glued styrofoam inside the nose of this american airlines 737, interfering with the navigation systems. as the plane taxied to the runway in miami, pilots got an alert the plane with 150 on board did not take off. no one was hurt. >> we're going to have to return to the gate. >> it is significant. any time we reject a takeoff, that's a big deal. >> reporter: alani said he was upset about stalled contract talks between his union and the airline which had affected him financially. prosecutors now claim he shared video stored on his cell phone of isis murders, had recently

sent money to someone in iraq, has a brother there who may have ties to the islamic state, and recently traveled to his native country. >> clearly there are more questions that are raised by these details than answers. and i think the right steps were made today. >> reporter: alani's public defender argued for bail saying his client never intentionally put anybody in any drarj danger because the plane had back up systems. he is facing up to 20 years behind bars for sabotage. it's important to note is not facing any terror-related charges. american airlines is cooperating with the investigation. tony? >> thank you. to a scary moment in the sky. delta is looking into the cause of a midair descent that dropped passengers thousands of feet. flight 2353 took off from atlanta yesterday for ft. lauderdale, florida. the website flight aware shows the plane descended from 39,000 feet to 10,000 feet in less than

eight minutes. it made an emergency landing in tampa. oxygen masks dropped from the ceiling. passengers commended the crew for its calm response. delta has apologized but said the descent was, quote, controlled. everyone on board fortunately is safe. this morning, iran's foreign minister says any attack on his country would lead to, quote, all-out war. president trump says he is in no hurry to do what he calls dastardly things in response to a missile and drone strike blamed on iran that damaged oil facilities. ian lee is in riyadh. what led to the iranian response? >> reporter: as mentioned, iran said any military strike against their country will see swift retaliation, and that warning coming as secretary of state mike pompeo was talking tough, too. in a diplomatic show of support, secretary pompeo met with saudi arabia's crown prince mohammed bin salman and said that saturday's attack was an act of war. in a tweet, pompeo called the attacks unprecedented and said

that iran's behavior will not be tolerated. >> you can see the type of the -- >> reporter: yesterday the kingdom made their strongest case yet that iran was behind the recent attack. the saudi military displayed some of the 18 drones and seven cruise missiles they claimed were used. >> saudi hasn't responded militarily to iran. when is the breaking point? >> we are working to know exactly the launch point and when we have it, we will have the evidence, and the decision is -- >> reporter: the weapons entered from the north of the country but stopped short of saying the launch point was in iran. iran denies being behind the attack that damaged half of saudi's oil production. officials say unreleased satellite photos show the most damning evidence yet. the revolutionary guard preparing for attack in southwestern iran. from there, the weapons flew through kuwaiti airspace, roughly 400 miles, to their targets in saudi arabia. a team of u.n. investigators is coming to saudi arabia to independently go over the evidence.

meanwhile, president trump is set to meet his new national security adviser tomorrow to discuss ways to respond to iran short of going to war. tony? >> ian lee for us on the ground again in saudi arabia. thank you so much. we have important news for millions of americans who take heartburn medicine. a version of a popular drug is on hold this morning after a possible cancer-causing chemical was found in heartburn medications like zantac. the maker of a generic version, novartis, stopped the distribution of its prescription version as a precaution. the move comes after the fda announced on friday that the medicines containing ndma could be a probable carcinogen. >> the maker of zantac that is not suspending distribution said in a statement, "the fda reported that the levels of ndma in rantidine rarely exceeded amounts found in common foods. we're working closely with the fda."

a lot of names of the medicines. let's start with the ndmm. what is it exactly? >> it's a byproducts of processes. manufacturing of dyes or tires or rubber can lead to this as well as chlorination of water. you can get if from smoked meats, fish, tobacco smoke, or malt beverages. it is out there. it shouldn't number our medications, however. this was the same type of contaminant or byproduct that was found in some of the blood pressure medicines that were recalled last year. things like valsartan. it is considered a probable carcinogen in humans. it has been shown to cause cancer in animals. >> how dangerous would put it? >> i don't think we necessarily know. certainly the fda is saying the levels are very low. the company that alerted to this result are doing their own testing, saying the levels they

found were thousands of times higher than the allowable amount. >> if you're taking zantac, should you stop? >> the fda is not saying to stop. they're saying you can talk to your health care provider about what other drugs there are. that could be in the same class or something different. if you're taking over-the-counter zantac, there are other options. >> they're not recalling it, but they want us to know about it? >> they do. they do. >> they want to scare us. >> i'm confused. >> they have to do investigating and see what exactly are the levels, what companies or brands are involved and how dangerous is it. it took them a while even last year to pull back some of the blood pressure medicines. >> if you had been taking this for years and had stopped, how worried should you be about past use? >> that's a great question. certainly last year when they lifted the blood pressure

medicines, they said the amount detected, about 17 micrograms, there were 8,000 people that took the highest dose of valsartan for four years there one additional case of cancer. obviously a low number. but who knows what the amounts are in this. so certainly something to keep in mind if you do take this every single day. >> all right. thank you, tara. a woman suing lyft says a routine ride home turned into a terrifying ordeal. ahead, how she says the driver was allowed to continue working good thursday morning to you. drier and quieter and brighter weather for you today. look at plenty of sunshine as we go through the afternoon. it is a chilly start. grab the jacket first thing as you go out the door. anyone in concorde, 76 in san jose and 80 for livermore and 73 in oakland and 68 for san francisco. the daytime high seasonal not just a little bit below average for this time of year. warming up friday and especially by saturday.

authorized them to run any and all tests. >> reporter: north suburban medical center said in a statement, "when patients present to our emergency room, board-certified physicians examine and address their medical needs. the amount patients pay out of pocket for their emergency room care is based upon their insurance." cameron's insurance company negotiated the bill down to roughly $4,700 and paid nearly $2,100. he owes the rest. >> my wife and i just recently found out that we're pregnant. so that's money that would be going to making sure our child is actually cared for. >> dr. elisabeth rosenthal, editor-in-chief of kaiser health news, joins us at the table. good morning. >> good morning. >> your website reported that the two bags of say lean solution were available at walmart for $10.99. >> right. >> instead of $700. if you go to walmart, there isn't a multithousandand dollar facility fee. this is double the cost of the

i'm getting married tomorrow. he could have prescribed some medicine to calm down the nausea and then cameron could have probably drunk water -- >> my response -- >> drink water. >> i've always that pedialyte is good. i've seen in young people's homes and they don't have babies. >> you can use pedialyte. i was an e.r. doctor. you can give people dilute semi warm ginger ale works nicely. >> also the blood test, what you said about the doctor, he or she, it's good to have a good relationship with your doctor and a number to reach him or her after hours. the other part that stood out to me was about the blood test. that he -- he was charged for a blood test that he didn't even order. >> right. now so the other thing you can do defensively is when you go to an emergency room and the doctor or the nurse says -- we're just going to orders some blood, you can say, why, what are they for? this kid -- this young man knew exactly what was wrong.

so all that blood stuff wasn't probably necessary. and e.r. doctors frequently, they're not bad people, but they're kind of ordering f surp this is a kpix 5 news morning update. >> morning, it's a tech 25. in san luis obispo county, one person is dead and seven others are hurt after a country singer, josh turner's tour bus crashed. the singer was not on board. san jose could become the latest bay area city to crackdown on the sale of vaping product. a hearing was underway yesterday to discuss a ban. the new rules were limit sales near schools and ban the sale of products not approved by the fda. the head of the environment protection agency upped the
