submerged. new york one state facing flash floods this wednesday, the 13th of august. good morning, i'm jose diaz-balart. ferguson, missouri, residents waking up to news of two shootings. a woman shot in the head in gunfire that could have come from a vehicle or by suspects on foot. then an hour later, an officer-involved shooting. police critically wounding a man they say pointing a gun at the policeman. according to the st. louis post dispatch. authorities investigating both incidents and say they're not directly related to ongoing protests there. what is clear, ferguson remains on edge after the shooting of unarmed 18-year-old michael brown. [ chanting ] >> the chant hands up don't

shoot has become a rallying cry. peaceful protests tuesday night ultimately giving away to more tear gas. many questioning the decision of not releasing the name. a decision authorities say was made due to threats of violence. brown's grandfather appeared on politics nation. he fought back against claims by the police that his grandson tried to take a gun from a police officer. >> his grandson is scared of guns. he wouldn't like that. he wasn't raised like that. and for someone to say that he tried to take a pistol from him, there's no one in this country who can make me believe that. that's false. the accusations. those are liars. >> i want to bring in tremain lee. thank you for being with us in morning. we're learning more about the overnight violence. give our viewers of sense how

close the officer-involved shooting was last night. >> not far at all. all of this is going down close to where i'm standing now by the qt mart that had been burned down on the first night of the kind of riots and protests. all is happening in the same area. essentially you have a stretch of ferguson with subdivisions and cul-de-sacs. we're seeing most of the protests, action, and police presence in the immediate neighborhood. all is happening in probably a 5 to 6 to 7 block radius. >> and at the community meeting both the governor and the police chief taunted the need for transparency. take a will listen to this. >> patience for the investigation underway, but be unwaivering in our insis assistance that it be open, thorou thorough, and fair. be. >> i want what you want. i want truth and the justice.

>> there are obviously many calls for the release of the police officer's name. the autopsy on brown didn't cite the number of gunshots. what is the level of trust between the community, the governor, and the police chief? >> the level of trust even before the shooting was thin to nonexistent. another night of tear gas way offing through the air, more violence, only adds to this kind of boiling cull dron we see in the community. i spoke with the police chief after the meeting, and he expressed a sense of hope that the meeting and community leaders come together would help easy some of the tension. but less than 2 1/2 hours later, we have a young man shot critically by police. apparently he brandished a gun. it adds to the tension. another shooting. so many more questions than answers. we don't know whether michael brown was shot in the back. we don't have the officer's name. all is contributing to a volatile situation. it's only getting worse.

>> and you reported michael brown receiving his high school diploma. is it at the core about michael brown or is the cause blurring? >> when i first arrived, what would have been monday night and i stood here next to protesters being shot. young man was shot in the face. he said it's not about michael brown. it's about us. it's a community that is frustrated, hurt, upset. it's boiling over of years and decades of tension of a populous here that feels like it's been neglected and abused. you have racials disparities b who is being stopped by police, and who is on the city council and elected positions on the police force. it's not about michael brown. it's about a community, a sub sect of people who feel they are being abused and not receiving transparency. and it could have been them lying dead on the ground. it's more than michael brown according to the residents i'm talking to here.

>> and that's exactly what your reporting has been focussed on. you take a deeper look how ferguson got to the moment. the question is, can calm exist when there is still so much distrust? >> i think when you look out in the street and he's correct, these people feel like they've been neglected and the voices haven't been heard. i've seen one local official out there on the front lines with the youth. i haven't seen the community leaders. you haven't seen all the folks that fill the churches. they're not standing on the front lines with the young people. until their voices are validated and heard, i think we'll continue to see this. the institutions in this community have long failed them. the police, they feel, have long failed them. there is a growing sense of fear among the department. when i spoke to the chief, he said he fears for his officer's lives. they've been threatened on twitter and social media. until there's a meeting on the front lines where the young people are, and even last night

at the meeting. there was an eloquent young manned articulating what it's like growing up being a black man in america. who was missing? the young people on the front lines who are a angry and seething. until we are addressing the real issues, not just in this community, this is an what we're seeing. thing is a solid kpachl of what happens. it's a kind of an indictment on all of us. >> thank you so much for being with us. i want to bring in wish shore victor curry. he's president of the miami-dade chapter of the national action network. a dear friend. how are you? >> hi, jose. >> what a pleasure to see you. what difficult times. what tough times. i think we have to extrapolate what is going on there and realize it's not just an isolated issue there. >> right. >> it's an occurring here in south florida. we have dealt with the issue for a long time. >> it's systemic. again.

we keep avoiding the main issue. the main issue is there have been tension between law enforcement and the african-american community. no one really wants to address it or deal with the 900-pound gorilla in the corner. a lot has to do with incensivity on the behalf of the people who lead our police department whether it's the chief or directors who sometimes put officers in communities that they really don't want to be in. as a matter of fact, we've heard that some officers refer to the african-american community as the jungle. if that's your premise before you get in your patrol car, if you think you're going to the jungle. what is in the jungle? animals. you don't view the people getting ready to police as human beings. >> with that real if i. happens and continues to happen. it's been happening forever. with that reality, how do you change the difference, the dynamics on this.

you've been on forefront for years now. here in south florida you were instrumental in helping quell the violence. how do you deal with something that is indemmic to a society? >> first and foremost, recently, under one year nine african-americans. >> that was a couple of years ago. >> exactly. you change the police chief. it starts a the top. a lot of politicians talk tough on law enforcement, but listen to what we're going through even know in miami-dade county they're wrangling over whether or not the police deserve more money. you can talk tough but when it comes to making -- we're pro law enforcement. we just anti-police brutality. >> i've been hearing you say for years about how many instances do we see an african-american police officer shoot an unarmed white person. >> it is rare. as a matter of fact, every chief or director or police i've asked

about it, they can't recite one incident where an african-american police officer shot and killed an unarmed white person. i raise question the, how is it african-american officers can have that kind of restrain while others don't seem to have that. >> how do we get that dynamic in to the officers who are having to patrol areas they themselves as see as jungle. how do you change that? >> you keep them out of the areas and you make sure that you have people who love this community and love the people in the community to police their community. i don't want to say this, jose, no one is for anyone threatening a police officer or anything like that. there is no defense for that. we always argue when we're dealing with unarmed african-american men being shot down like their lives don't matter. that has to change. >> bishop victor curry, thank you so much. coming up the incredibly

desperate situation for the refugees trapped on the mountain in iraq. the u.s. sending 130 advisers. could the larger plan involve an international rescue mission? these pictures are unbelievable. parts of the mid atlantic and northeast washed out. they're under water. it's not over yet. details straight ahead. this is. his doubleheader day at the park starts with back pain... and a choice. take 4 advil in a day or just 2 aleve for all day relief. peanuts! peanuts! crowd cheers! today, more and more people with type 2 diabetes are learning about long-acting levemir®, an injectable insulin that can give you blood sugar control for up to 24 hours. and levemir® helps lower your a1c. levemir® is now available in flextouch® - the only prefilled insulin pen with no push-button extension. levemir® lasts 42 days without refrigeration.

this morning we've learned 130 more u.s. military advisers have been sent to iraq. it puts the number of u.s. troops in iraq at more than 900. the obama administration is also weighing a larger military mission to get those refugees out. it would put american forces in

direct confrontation with isis for the first time face to face. secretary of defense chuck hagel emphasizing the new mission is not troops on the ground. >> a very specifically this is not a combat boots on the ground operation. we're not going have that kind of operation. >> but three top democratic lawmakers are now warning the president if that mission changes, he'll need to come to congress for approval. joining me now from charlotte, north carolina. republican congressman robert pitt pittener. do you agree with some of your democratic colleagues that if the mission gets more involved in iraq the president needs to come to congress for approval? ? >> i think the president needs to consult congress. tragical tragically, the president's foreign policy lacked true leadership, whether you look at ukraine or syria or iran.

we have left a void. he could have confronted this in the free syrian army. he could have responded to mr. maliki in june and brought air strikes against the isis movement. he didn't do it. only now, frankly, we have a great humanitarian problem, but as well, you know, he's got a personnel on the ground. the diplomatic team there. he doesn't want another benghazi. i think that is what truly got his attention. she, as you know, this is the news from today sending additional 130 advisers. now the number of troops is around 900. we keep hearing no troops on the ground. aren't we close to that already there? >> well, i think other countries are as well. britain has responded, so has the australians. this is a great humanitarian need. there is as many as 200,000 christians and others who are under the threat of

annihilation, the genocide is what they're being confronted with. these people are brutal. they have enormous resources. the isis movement, now the slammic state. frankly the ultimate goal is to plant the flag on the white house in honor of allah. i think it's a concern beyond humanitarian relief program. as a foreign minister from france said yesterday, it has to be addressed. they are an enormous threat to the region and frankly to the world. >> so do you sport, then, the united states getting a larger presence in iraq, going back in there, for example, a rescue mission for the yezidi where the americans could come face to face with isis. is it something you think would be a good policy now? >> sir, i think the president's foreign policy, his presipt use removal of our forces, no agreement with the iraqis in

terms of keeping a sustained force there could have been achieved. he left a vacuum. now he wants to say, well, it wasn't my decision to pull the forces out. that's absolute nonsense. he lead on that. he ran on that. that's what he wanted. as a result that have, the isis movement has emerged highly funded. they have all of our very sophisticated weaponry. they're going to be an enormous threat all because he was committed to keep a campaign promise. one that got him elected. it sounded -- >> congressman, all right. let me ask you the question again. is it now time for the united states to go back into iraq in some way or form? that's the specific question. >> we're back in iraq. we are striking them. we need to be able to back the iraqi army and unify government. i hope that there can be one form now with a new prime minister. that is what is essential. we need to be training the

people and giving them equipment. we need to be supporting them in every possible way. we should have done it with the kurds earlier. we need to do it with the iraqi army now. it should be our vocal point. we cannot lose sight of the fact it's the greatest terrorist threat we've ever had. far greater than al qaeda ever has been. more sophistication and resources. they have the determination and commitment to bring graef havoc upon the united states of america. >> congressman, thank you for being with us this morning. >> great to be with you. i want to talk about the refugee situation. first a warning, the video you're about to see is disturbing. thousands of refugees forced to flee their country from unspeakable violence. isis killing at least 500 of them. burying some alive. joining me now on the phone is

sophia jones from world post. she made the journey with the refugees. thank you for being with us. you spent time with one particular family. give us a sense what the families are going through >>well, the omar family i spent time in southeast turkey. they told me it took them nine days to make the treacherous trip from iraq from sinjar to where they live to turkey. they didn't have food or water. >> you get the sense they're feeling this increase in american aid, you know, there's water, there's food being dropped. is it enough? do you think they're feeling a little bit of support international support when they felt so alone for so long? >> well, the families i spoke to in turkey said they haven't seen any aid drops. the aid drops they heard of can only help a number of people. tens of thousands of refugees are on the mountain.

there are only so many helicopters. they're not reaching as many people as they need to. >> this is a question i ask about refugee realities and exiles. did the family travel with have any hope of one day returning back to their homeland to iraq? >> no. that's the most striking point they made to me. they said there's no point in going back. they will never go back to iraq. they don't want to stay in turkey, either. they're living in tents and small homes with no electric and no running water. they have their eyes set on europe. around a million syrian refugees do. they want to go to europe. >> and the problem is, if that doesn't necessarily ever pan out. so we could see families living in these camps for generations like we've been seeing, for example, in lebanon and other places. sophia jones, thank you for being with us. >> thank you for having me. >> this morning mixed messages from iraq's prime minister in a

speech hours ago on iraqi state tv nouri al maliki seemed he wouldn't back down uses breach of democracy. but in a statement in recent moments, he acknowledges he's lost any military support for a cue. and the leadership addition should be left to the iraqi left. he lost support of a key backer iran. joining me now is a fellow at the brookings institute. he's the author of "temptations of power." thank you so much for your time. >> hi, jose. thank you for having me. >> what do you think is al maliki's angle here? the new york times reports he went -- he wants to be taken care of symbolic job with police protection. what is his future goals here? >> well, yesterday, was actually troubling. it seemed like he was thinking about staging a military coup,

and using the security forces that were loyal to him. luckily over the past 24 hours we see maliki coming to terms with the reality he's lost key backing. most political forces in iraq are against him. so now i think he's looking for a safe exit. one of his concerns is immunity from prosecution going forward. he wants -- it seems like he wants some guarantees. so the question now isn't whether maliki leaves but how he leaves. >> it's one of the questions i have. let's say leaves one way or another. but -- and you focus so much of your intellect on this. how difficult is it for democracies to emerge from experiences like what the iraqi people have dealt with. not only in recent times but in authoritarian culture. how is it the countries can emerge from the obstacles of

authoritariani authoritarianism. >> i think not just in iraq but across the region egypt, libya, syria. you have foundational, ethnic, and religious divides and you have different groups with different visions for their society. you hope that even if people hate each other, they find their way to resolve through differences through a peaceful democratic process. after we've seen after the arab spring is a loss of faith in peaceful democracy. when the political process collapses, you're more likely to turn to arms. that's what we're seeing across the region. we're seeing the resurgence of autocrats and strong men and former generals. it's pretty depressing across the board. that's the key challenge going forward is getting people to sit down at the table and say we're going to resolve this peacefully. >> and then there is the tolltarian temptation.

once people get to power are temped to stay there because the mentality of keeping power permanently. is there something the united states maybe should or could be doing that it's not not help the transition and try to give the iraqi people without boots on the ground an opportunity to reach their dreams of living in a better place? >> so i think we have made a lot of mistakes since the arab springs started in 2011 where the u.s. had a chance to get things right and move away from our past of supporting autocratic regimes and get, as obama said himself, on the right side of history. but support for the democratic transitions was lackluster. we didn't have much skin in the game. as others have noted, obama saw his legacy as extracting the u.s. from the middle east. he was hesitant to devote more resources to struggling arab countries. i think that if we're talking

specifically about the rise of extremist groups like isis, the rise of isis is at least in part, a result of obama's failed policies. there was a real political vacuum in syria. we weren't willing to intervene and support the moderate rebels. so isis found a lot of space to operate. they kept on gaining strength. now we see the results of that. >> that's kind of like the hillary clinton failure comment a little bit of that. but the fact is that, you know, sometimes you can do anything and everything and if the people that you're helping can't deal with it, we saw the iraqi army run away from isis. there's very little that, you know, the united states or others can do if their own people aren't willing to fight for their own future. but what a pleasure having you on. i thank you for your time. >> my pleasure, thank you for having me, jose. coming up record rainfall and massive flooding. stranding drivers from baltimore

to long island. two fallen stars. remembering lauren bcall and new details about the robin williams. tributes to the man that made the entire world laugh. time for "your business" entrepreneurs of the week. 5 years ago, the wood stock music festival shook up the nation and changed the culture landscape. today on main street in wood stock much of the spirit lives on in the small business businesses from peace, love & cupcakes to a hippie hotel turned into a studio. if i can impart one lesson to a new business owner, it would be one thing i've learned is my philosophy is real simple american express open forum is an on-line community, that helps our members connect and share ideas to make smart business decisions. if you mess up, fess up. be your partners best partner. we built it for our members, but it's open for everyone. there's not one way to do something.

truce talks, massive flooding, and earthquake. time is running out. in a few hours a temporary cease-fire in gaza set to expire. talks between israeli and palestinian officials are continuing today in cairo with egypt pushing both sides to extend the current truce. it remains unclear whether the two parties will be able to reach a solution before the cease-fire ends today at 5 p.m. eastern time. turning to the weather and the massive amount of rain flooding out roads in some areas. this is the southern state parkway in long island, new york. look at the cars stranded, pushed to the side of the road. the airport in' slip got more

than 13 inches of rain. baltimore got more than 6 inches of rain breaking the record as well. officials had to close the harbor tunnel. it's part of the same system that came out of the midwest. in detroit, officials say major interstates could be closed for days after flash flooding. check out this surveillance video from nebraska. a hospital cafeteria completely taken over by a flash flood. here are the top rainfall totals from this storm islip leads the way. the storm is on the way up to new england where residents say it may see flooding but not like the pictures we've been seeing out of new york. out west the opposite. a rare haboob or dust storm hit washington state. they are normally associated with the southwest. it caused several accidents and knocked out power. a 5.1 magnitude earthquake

rattled ecuador. it was caught on camera during a television show. two people killed and eight others injured in the area about seven miles north of the capital. it triggered rock and mudslides. a legendary actress of hollywood's golden age died. lauren bacall suffered a stroke last night in her home in new york. she was 89 years old. the actress skyrocketed to success when she starred with future husband humphrey bogart. she was 19 years old when she delivered this iconic line in the film. >> you know how to whistle, don't you, steve? you put your lips together and blow. >> bacall went on to get married and co-starred in three more movies together. bacall survived by three children. this morning more outpours of grief over the death of

beloved comedian robin williams. one day after learning he hanged himself with a belt inside his home. the investigation into his death continues. halle jackson joins us with more from hollywood. good morning. what more do police need to do? >> there's still some questions about what exactly happened. one of the biggest outstanding pieces of information we'll find out eventually is the toxicology test. the sheriff's department said the results won't be back for maybe another couple of weeks. possibly as long as six weeks. they will let us know if williams had any substances in the body. you heard folks asking about the suicide note. there was one? police wouldn't say because the investigation is continuing. they also wouldn't talk about what exactly happened in williams' home before his personal assistant found him in his bedroom. we expect another news conference at some point once the investigation wraps up. remember, this is a preliminary

cause of death. asan francisco ya due to hanging. at this point, we're looking at maybe another few weeks to possibly more than a month before we get the answers back. >> you know the news that williams' suicide is leaving people stunned. not just here in the united states but throughout the world. yesterday i lead telemundo nightly news. is the family surprised at the global overwhelming reaction that they're seeing to this? >> and that's kind of the amazing thing. we are here at the star on the hollywood walk of fame. it's far from the only memorial for williams. not just here in the united states. i would to tell you what his daughter had to say about this. she released a statement. in which he talked about this exact thing. this outpouring of support. while i'll never understand how he could be loved so deeply and not find it in his heart to stay, there's minor comfort knowing our grief and loss in some small way is shared be

millions. and that's not an und understatement. i don't know if you caught fallon last night. after the emotional and heart felt tribute stood on his desk and delivered the "oh captain line." the scene made famous in the debt poet's society. you're seeing it all over social media. people showing pictures and videos of the 0 captain my captain. it's a small tribute but poignant for so many. people sharing how much they miss robin williams. >> thank you so much for your time this morning. >> still to come. could president obama and hillary clinton hug away their differences at the party tonight? plus rick perry tells us he's awesome. and rand paul takes on chris christie. it's a 2016 frame the debate next. wherever morning takes you, take along nature valley soft-baked oatmeal squares. oatmeal. cinnamon. softly-baked.

he's very likable. i agree with that. i don't think i'm that bad. >> you're likable enough. >> thank you so much. >> that was president obama talking about hillary clinton back in 2008. now we fast forward six years where tonight they're apparently going to be hugging it out at the party in martha's vineyard. it stems from a foreign policy difference that went public. using the word failure to describe president obama's foreign policy. nice to see you both. >> thank you. good to see you. >> thank you. hillary clinton called the president yesterday to reinforce her stance. it was not an attack him on she said. the spokesman said like any two friends who have to deal with the public eye. she looks forward to hugging it out when they see each other at the event. what is next? are you expecting an instagram

of the two of them embracing? >> actually, that wouldn't be a bad idea. maybe we could have someone take the picture. i don't -- let's push back to 2008. clearly hillary clinton was to the right on barack obama. she was far more hashish on the issue of foreign policy. that was a major reason why she didn't win the nomination in 2008. she becomes secretary of state. it's not lost on her on anyone else. sleeves the administration after a successful run and she's a private citizens with a book tour. it was in her book. i'm not sure there's a lot of new news here, per se, other than hillary clinton is more hawkish than barack obama. we've known that since 2008. >> yeah. but the word failure is a pretty strong word >>well, you're right, it is. by the way, i happen to agree with hillary clinton on the issue. i think we should have done more when it came to arming with regard to syria. because in large part, we can say by not doing what we could

have done, then that did give isis the ability under the cover of darkness become who they are in southern syria. that is just a fact. and we can't change that. all we do now is fight against isis in syria and iraq and try it alleviate the problem. >> so jimmy says that hillary clinton was to the right of barack obama in 2008. that's why she didn't get the nomination among other reasons. is this important coming now she may be running for a second time? >> well, this is obvious that she is probably going to launch, you know, her campaign soon. and i think that the fact that they're hugging it out. to look at the bigger picture. they're clearly divided obama and hillary clinton are clearly guided. there's no love lost. a lot of people know they don't really get along. but i'll tell you the democrats have something that the republican party does not have, and that is unity. so the fact that she is saying,

you know, going against obama and turns around and is doing the hug fest kind of shows our puts on a good face for unity with the democrats. and let's face it, unity attracts more people to a party than being divisive like the tea party and the establishment in the republican party. so in a way, while she has distanced herself from obama with her policy and what she thinks, i agree with her. she is making a nice play for unity for democrats. >> so jimmy, i want to talk about -- go ahead. >> i want to push back a little bit. the relationship between barack obama and hillary clinton is remarkably well. there is no massive divide between these two. if they agree on every single policy issue, then that would be more troubling to me. that's a rubber stamp. i don't think anybody -- last time i checked i don't think anybody rubber stamped george bush's administration or ronald reagan or bill clinton's.

i think it's fine for them to agree to disagree. their relationship is quite solid. >> let's talk about the republicans now. because maybe some possible 2016 contenders. rick perry is living it up in iowa. the des moines register said he walked off the stage and said, quote, i'm awesome. he said he learned from his mistakes. listen to this. >> i shared rather openly very humbling, frustrating process that i went through. it was necessarily bad, but life is about having experiences. >> i don't know if i heard that said that last experience wasn't necessarily bad. but is it a new and improved not only glasses candidate for 2014 -- '16? >> oh, my gosh. of all people i have to defend

that one. i guess. >> go for it, buddy. >> he's coming out. but the fact that he gets off stage and says that was great. i'm awesome! oh, no. this guy has done some great things in texas. he's a great guy. he's just he's a -- he's kind of like the biden and democrats have biden and we've got the rick perry. oh, of all contenders in 2016. i'm not real sure that i am too pumped up about the rick perry. >> jimmy, care to comment? >> no. not at all. it's the gift that keeps on giving. i hope it continues to give. i praise everything rick perry does. absolutely. no doubt about it. >> thank you for being with us. you are awesome. both of you.

the videos are everywhere. people pouring buckets of ice water on their head by choice. well, it's part of a social media movement using t the #icebucketchallenge to raise awareness and money for lou gehr gehr gehrig's disease. $4 billion has been raised. last night jimmy fallon did it after being challenged by christie. he challenged the entire jets team to do the same. on telemundo what might be the first ever bilingual challenge ever. [ speaking in foreign language ] >> i dare you to do the bucket of ice now. i'm going to do it now then and this afternoon. just me an enormous bucket of cold aqua and marimaria. i'll have three challenges in mind. stay tuned.

up next american cattle ranchers afraid to walk on their own property alone because of armed drug smugglers using it to cross into the u.s. in an area known as no man's land. their story straight ahead. think the tree we carved our names in is still here? probably dead... how much fun is this? what? what a beautiful sunset... if you like sunsets. whether you're sweet or salty... you'll love nature valley sweet and salty bars.

it's how i look at life. especially now that i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib, a type of irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve problem. i was taking warfarin but wondered, could i focus on something better? my doctor told me about eliquis for three important reasons. one, in a clinical trial eliquis was proven to reduce the risk of stroke better than warfarin. two, eliquis had less major bleeding than warfarin. and three, unlike warfarin there's no routine blood testing.
