ah...yeah, pretty much walked into that one. geico anywhere anytime. just a tap away on the geico app. >> just a few moments ago the house voting to approve the keystone pipeline passing in support. that brings a six-year fight to a close over the plan to build that pipeline from canada to the gulf of mexico. why did it pass now after all this time? one word? louisiana. the house bill is headed up by bill caffney. mary landrieu will come to a vote in the senate next week.

this will stall when it hits the president's desk. here's what he had to say just this morning in myanmar. >> i have to constantly push back against this idea that somehow the keystone pipeline is either this massive jobs bill for the united states or it is somehow lowering gas prices. understand what this project is. it is providing the ability of canada to pump their oil, send it through our land down to the gulf where it will be sold everywhere else. >> a veto could challenge congress to overright h rigover. >> shedding light on the comedy of error that allowed a fence jumper to make it into the white house. a canine officer didn't have an

earpiece and instead was on a private call. the agent station inside mistakenly grabbed for a flashlight instead of a baton. they mishandled the investigation into the jumper in the months leading up to that september incident. we will have a live update from the white house in a few minutes. over in nebraska, the u.s. will treat the tenth case of ebola within their borders. a man with residency here in the united states tested positive just on monday. he will be treated in the special isolation unit in nebraska medical center. we expect him to arrive tomorrow. nebraska you may recall is the same hospital that treated a doctor and our cameraman. more medical news, an fda panel is considering whether to lift the ban on blood donations from gay men. that has been in place since 1985 in the wake of the aids epidemic. as lifting the ban is

discriminatory and advances rendered it obsolete. the three blood groups from the american association of blood banks all support nixing the ban. we will keep an eye on that. troubling reports about the u.s. secret service. they have the now beleaguered agency, citing not just one, but a series of plunders allowing an intruder to make it into the east room of the white house. that's alarms and agents who didn't function and some department see the suspect as he climbed over the fence. omar gonzalez could have been stopped repeatedly, but he wasn't. one of a series of security breeches, a pokemon enthusiast that jumped the fence. this happened in actual life. peter, explain the series of errors that let up to gonzalez getting to the east room.

>> as you noted, this is by the department of homeland security and said everything that could have gone wrong that night did. the uniformed officers saw this white house jumper, omar gonzalez appearing to climb the fence. he set off a series of alarms and an officer here called out over the radio with a warning. an officer in charge of an attack dog didn't hear the radio transmissions because his earpiece was out. he was talking on his personal cell phone sitting in a van. several officer who is chased gonzalez might actually stop him. they were surprised when they saw him charge through the unlocked doors and directly into the white house where he overpowered one of the officers and walked through much of the white house on the way to the east room before he was brought down. here's another thing that strikes a lot of us from an executive summary.

the emergency response team didn't immediately enter the mansion because they were according to the language of the document, unfamiliar with the lay out of the white house. they waited outside to get into a tactical formation before entering. they are saying that it's already changed their training as well as the procedures and acting secret service director. he is expected to testify next week at the house oversight hearing. coc to conclude this, no one has been placed on administrative leave. >> a lot of respect for those who put it all on the line, but clearly big systemic issues. it will be interesting to see how it unfolds. peter alexander, we appreciate the update. >> the secret service is not the only one looking at cleaning up shop. they are launching a major overhaul of the nuclear weapons program. the fundamental flaws include

outdated equipment. it is their responsibility to get it right. >> the president made clear as long as we have nuclear weapons, we will and we must ensure that they are safe, secure, and effective. >> turning from washington is jim miklaszewski. jim, what is it looking like this will entail? >> ronan, we got a copy of a release from the air force and at the air force base, here's one example to show you you how far the nuclear weapons force system had really degraded over the past 20 years since the end of the cold war. deep cleaning for the first time in the history of the minute man weapons system. a deep cleaning of each launch control center is under way to include sanitizing floors, carpeting and kitchens and

restrooms and the control center. that's where the guys with the fingers on the triggers reside when they are on duty. the minute men missile system was established in 1970. for the first time, they are going to deal clean the facilities. that's just one example. there were a number of examples where the air force lost control or track of six nuclear weapons shipped across the country and the cheating scandals at the air force and navy nuclear missile installations. the air force has a long way to go. to try to recover the pentagon, air force, the services are going to spend $10 billion over the next five years and all these facilities increasing the amount of money that needs to be spent on the program and the number of personnel in an attempt to regain the stature

that they once had during the cold war. >> no deep cleaning of those bathrooms for the critical employees putting everything on the line since the 70s. that is quite a headline there. jim miklaszewski, appreciate your reporting on this. >> you bet. >> the mid-terms are done, but politics go on. today's big narrative from the campaign trail. the clintons headed back to arkansas. they are there to celebrate the ten-year anniversary at the clinton library. political watchers are saying they are plotting a come back. another democrat tied up in the hopes for the come back. elizabeth warren she is fielding new cheers from liberal donors including this one. run, liz, run. let's go back to arkansas. following that in little rock, she there right now. alex, what what is on the

clinton schedule? >> ronan, it's mostly a homecoming for former clinton aids. we have three going-over the clinton white house from people involved that a big party for 1300 of their closest friends. a picnic and chelsea and hillary are here and a big concert off tomorrow night. of course the elephant in the room or donkeys since we are talking about democrats is hillary clinton's likely presidential run. they will be happening around the bar or the sidelines of this event. >> appreciate your following that. good reporting. keep us posted. up next, two nobel peace prize recipients facing did shed dr-- dashed dreams. stay with us. to sleep at night, and stay awake during the day. this is called non-24, a circadian rhythm disorder

par where in the world is president obama. an uh date in a couple of hours. air force one will touchdown in australia. the president is headed to the g-20 meeting in brisbane. 25 world leaders from 19 countries will be there and together this is important because they are responsible for 80% of the world's trade. those decisions there may affect everybody. the host australia said jobs and economic growth will top the agenda & leaders are burying their head in the stand and when it comes to climate change and human rights. the president is still in the air with another hot spot.

stewart holiday who worked on human rights internationally and specifically in myanmar. he joins me now. they summarize with the people sitting in, it's something of an apartheid state. 1.3 million muslims who live there with very few rights. they are forced to live in segregated camps and can't become citizens. the government said their ethnicity doesn't technically exist. they have been criticized to change the respective countries. why are these two icons seeing as being respectable in myanmar right now. >> the president wouldn't be there if not for the east asia summit being held in the capital. this happened before the

election and you have this iconic and they are part of the political process. what you see there is the messiness that comes when you run your party in the country, but also stand up for the rights and the mosul minority. >> she said she believes the u.s. is a strong partner to create reform in myanmar. listen to her after her meeting with the president. >> the absolute confidence of the united states to continue to support us with regard to the democratic transformation and that's when burma is a fully functioning democracy and in accordance with the will of the people and among those friend who is enabled them to get back to the united states, they were among the first. >> she is whatever else.

one interesting thought that came around yesterday, maybe the u.s. lifted sanctions too quickly after the transition away from military rules nomi l nominally away in 2011. do you agree? >> we haven't lifted the sanctions. we suspended the sanctions. that gives us leverage. is the military assistance that they seek. so it's a tough thing. s en tor connell pushing for the inclusion there had to be a statement to get that done. i don't think it was too soon. we need to be prepared to use the leverage and reimpose the measures as necessary to keep

the pressure on. >> we will be watching, folks. i do want to ask you quickly about this g20 meeting in australia. obama and putin at odds. they will be in the same table. their distrust is seating a lot of discord. >> it symbolizes the lack of leadership. the differences between the countries are vesting a lot of hope in this g20 format. the deliverables are falling short. just ahead, sexism in the media? i never. >> banners on the front.

fight against isis. the new audio tape with the leader saying he is still alive and promising volcanoes of jihad. there have been reports that he may have been killed or at least wounded last week in an air strike. it comes as syrian opposition are telling the associated press that isis brokered a deal. the al qaeda satellite in syria. richard engle has the latest developments in the fight. >> of all the different fighting, the women and men in kobani, they were by far the most cohesive and organized. they had a different lifestyle than groups like the free syrian army. the kurdish men and women try to live in a collective society where there is no rank or distinction made between a man's

or a woman's role. they each share in all of the different responsibilities, cooking, cleaning, rank or leadership responsibilities are given depending upon your ability. it was quite an extraordinary group. they don't take salaries. the bread is distributed for free. they are trying to live in this progressive world. the fight by isis is uniting them in a way that you don't always see in wartime. sometimes when there is an enemy close by, it brings out the worst in a society and in human nature. we found a very cohesive group of fighters in kobani. that spans enormous contrast to what we are seeing in iraq. the iraqi government announced it made some gains, but in general the iraqi army is a mess. it is infiltrated by iran and infiltrated by not only the iranian revolutionary guard, but

shiite religious groups and a great deal of corruption and not a lot of trust in the iraqi security forces from other segments of society. i'm talking about the sunnis in western iraq and the kurds in nowhere iraq. this is after the u.s. spent about $25 billion to train the iraqi army and equip it with state-of-the-art american weapons. they are not holding the people of coban whoa received no outside support. in general they received nothing. they are not paid or equipped. they are holding out against isis yet the army which the u.s. built has not been able to hold up to kobani. that is reflected in the statements they are starting to hear from general dempsey. he was not saying that the troops will go into combat, but he was not ruling it out either. saying if forces try to enter a battle to retake the city of

mosul, they might need or at least wouldn't roll out the possibility that they might need combat troops. that speaks a great deal of the state of readiness of the iraqi army. >> fascinating group from the ground. we want to remind you something you should tune in for. it's on at 9:00 p.m. he was inside and got incredible footage on the battle against isis. richard spent time with all of the players at the heart of that fight at 9:00 p.m. eastern. i will be tuning in. joining me now for a deeper lookality the latest on isis and what are up ahead for fighting forces. evan coleman, thank you so much for taking the time. for up, for the viewers who are just reacting to the reports, explain how much of a game changer that would be. >> if it's correct, we have to put a big caveat here.

there is no official announcement. it has been clear that they do not necessarily see themselves in common cause with isis. >> there have been tensions. >> they have been killing each other. this is al qaeda's official franchise and they have been fighting for months if not years. they have been killing each other in dramatic fashion. isis has been killing the leaders with suicide bombs. yet there is a projection that because of the pressure that the u.s. is putting on isis combined with the strike that the u.s. launched which apparently the subunit groups will now team up. >> is this going to happen? i think we have to put something in context. they have connections here with governments that are working with the united states, including the government of qatar. it would strike me as unusual that this group would defy the sponsors including reportedly the government and team up with

isis. is it possible? yes. the u.s. has been launching these strikes and we have been talking about strikes against the group, but in fact the strikes have been targeting them. individuals from within the area that are al qaeda would have been in afghanistan and trained in pakistan and the government has been careful to say no, we are not targeting them. we are targeting the core thon group. it may be only a matter of time before the group said we don't care what you are calling us. you are still attacking us and launching air strikes and now we have to respond. >> could this change signal a shift from the gulf states so they have outside supporters? >> it could. it's possible. put it this way. it would be difficult to see this group doing something against the government of qatar. it received support from the government. it would be unusual to expect that. the government paid millions of

dollars to this group merely in terms of ransom money to get them to turn over peace keepers and others they had in their custody. a group that receives millions of dollars, do we think they will team up? that's possible. wait until we see something official before we decide this is fact. >> in addition being our news terrorism analyst, you track a lot of internet activity around this for flash point, your group of terrorism analysts. i want to get your take on this. an exclusive we have. a to be in number that suggests air strikes in the region have failed to slow isis attacks and their casualties that ensue from them. is that consistent and if you look at that, they increased with the casualty since january. a stark number. is that consistent with what you are seeing online. is there a victory narrative? are. >> isis put out video after

video, showing that despite air strike, they are continuing to operate. the video was put out where they showed them digging tunnels and trenches and say specifically with these tunnels and trenches, we can resist the americans. we can resist the air strikes. that is the narrative that they are putting out there. is it in fact true? it's hard to say. there is no doubt that isis suffered setbacks in kobani and northern syria and elsewhere in recent weeks. there is no doubt that isis fighters lot of their lives in air strikes. there is also i think a bit of unrestrained optimism that people had towards this. when the iraqi government two days ago said he was dead, all of a sudden everyone here in the united states started saying victory. he is not dead. the audio came out yesterday. he's not dead. this will be a long battle. it's not over any time soon. the momentum is hanging between the u.s. and allies versus isis.

there has been no change thus far. >> one clear message, one of the few out of the region right now. too early to lead to a conclusion. >> exactly. >> thank you very much. >> thank you for your take. >> up next, remember about a year although when we were wondering how obamacare and the roll out would go? now it's reenrollment time this weekend and there a lot of new obstacles. we will talk about a few of them when we come back.

a man who doesn't stand still. but jim has afib, atrial fibrillation an irregular heartbeat, not caused by a heart valve problem. that puts jim at a greater risk of stroke. for years, jim's medicine tied him to a monthly trip to the clinic to get his blood tested. but now, with once-a-day xarelto®, jim's on the move. jim's doctor recommended xarelto®. like warfarin, xarelto® is proven effective to reduce afib-related stroke risk. but xarelto® is the first and only once-a-day prescription blood thinner for patients with afib not caused by a heart valve problem, that doesn't require regular blood monitoring. so jim's not tied to that monitoring routine. gps: proceed to the designated route. not today. for patients currently well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. xarelto® is just one pill a day taken with the evening meal. plus, with no known dietary restrictions, jim can eat the healthy foods he likes.

don't stop taking xarelto®, rivaroxaban, unless your doctor tells you to. while taking xarelto®, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. xarelto® may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. xarelto® can cause serious bleeding, and in rare cases, may be fatal. get help right away if you develop unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. if you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto®, watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto®, tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. jim changed his routine. ask your doctor about xarelto®. once-a-day xarelto® means no regular blood monitoring, no known dietary restrictions. for information and savings options, download the xarelto® patient center app, call 1-888-xarelto, or visit goxarelto.com.

inappropriately and i regret having made the comments. >> obamacare consultant and mitt professor jonathan grubaer on the show saying the comments of his about obamacare's lack of transparency were also off the cuff. the interview with two other interviews have resurfaced, showing a pattern. >> the insurance companies pass on higher prices that offset what we get and ends up being the same. the deliver exploitation of the lack of economic understanding with the american voter. >> with 40% passed on the insurance companies that sells these. that's pretty much the same thing. you will see. >> that series of assertions touched a nerve. grubaer has been trending nationally all day. this firestorm hits as open enrollment is about to begin

again. it starts tomorrow. we remember the last ramp up. tweets from president obama to katie perry. thanks for spreading the word. the hash tag get covered. near the end of the open enrollment in march, with zack, democrats and republicans remember well with fierce opposition on the hill. this year fanfare and a set of obstacles. this year they ran on hhs. he joins me now. thanks for taking the time. i want to say off the top, we reached out to the professor and have an open invitation for him to return to talk about the additional videos and how the conversation evolved. i want your take. having been on the inside, do the comments strike you as in politics as he claims they were or did they reveal anything new about the law?

>>. >> no, they didn't reveal anything new about the law. he was a good economist with a good model that allows him to make good estimates. what the cost of the provision will be and how many people are likely to be inshirted. he has a right to those opinions, but they are his, not the administration's opinions and not the opinions of congress. unfortunately what the opponents of obamacare are trying to do is they are trying to argue that the opinions are the views of the administration and congress. they are not. >> one thing the critics are arguing, the long held charge that obama care is a concealed form of wealth distribution. isn't there something to that? >> there is nothing to that. jonathan is an economist and not a political analyst. he is not -- his opinions,

again, they are not the opinions of the industry. not the opinions of the administration and not the opinions of congress. i disagree with those opinions. or some of his opinions. one thing was that obamacare doesn't control costs. obamacare has done a tremendous job of controlling costs. the rate increases this year in most cases are going to be in the low single digits. in many states they are going down. obamacare has done a good job of beginning to control costs. people will find out this year during the open enrollment period that the website is working much, much better and rates will be good. >> positive messages there, but again without passing judgment on the freighted term of wealth redistribution, there dollars being moved around here. look at the number of uninsured americans decreasing by 26%. obamacare as you suggested is working in the sense that it's

getting more people insured. that doesn't come for free. >> it's not only getting insured, but cutting costs. they have recovery and that forces them to compete on price. when they have to compete on price, that means in order to make a buck, they have to drive down prices themselves. that's what we see happening. >> setting aside the question, it's the other big threat that touched the nerve. the lack of transparency. he claims again and again, that the public was misled and they were too dumb to understand what was going on. the lengthy debate where they were talking about the public airing. >> very public airing. here i think in 2010, 2011, they didn't do as good as we might

have in explaining all the good things about the affordable care act to people. when you asked people about the polls that show when you have people what did they think about obamacare, they are against it. when you asked what do you think about having your kids setting the policies and having insurance companies insuring people with preexisting conditions. when you ask about the provisions, they are all for it. >> there is nothing to the charge that in the squishy definitions of mandates versus taxes, there was an effort to mislead the public? nothing to that. >> none whatever. he was a good economist as far as his opinions are concerned about other issues as well. they could be taken with a grain of salt. >> that is obviously a controversial point right now. really appreciate getting that view from inside the process. thanks for your time. >> up next, the call to action.

today and every day, hundreds of service men and women embark on a new journey that is often difficult and marred by invisible scars. 239,000 have been formally diagnosed since 2001. every 80 minutes, a veteran dies by suicide. this week we have been looking at getting better care to the veteran who is risked it all for our security. a big proposal is about to hit on the hill. joining me now to discuss that, the group behind this proposal and someone with a personal link is alice nicholson from iraq and

afghanistan veterans of america. thank you so much for your time. both of you. i will start with you. your group has been championing this new ish initiative and we are excited to hear about it. it is called the suicide prevention for american veterans act that launches on monday. tell us about that. >> that's correct. clay hunt died by suicide a couple of months ago. he was active in trying to get health and resources for those who suffered from ptsd and he succumbed to his own mental injuries a couple of years ago. they stepped up to introduce the senate version of a house bill that chairman miller on the chair committee introduced along with the congressman called. they had the suicide prevention save act. >> we are looking at the key provisions and more evaluations and more reporting on this new resources for people struggling with this. i want to go over to you.

you have a personal link to this. clay hunt was a member of the team. can you share your link to his story with us? >> absolutely. >> clay hunt was one of the original members of the team. he along with several others went to haty in 2010 after the devastating earthquakes there.

>> vets really don't know where to go. that's one of the reasons. to give them one consolidated place to go. we refer out to best in class. that's what d.o.d. is starting to do pva is dopting as well. that's one of the things that has been lacking, a resource hub for people to go and figure out the best place to go in you're having trouble issues or gi confess or benefits questions. >> so important to so many of these veterans. matthew, last question to you, for those who are moved by clay's story, your story, what would you tell them to do if they want to help? >> yeah, it's a great question. i think it's important to note that if you're having mental health issues. there's no silver bullet in this fight and it requires a daily fight on behalf of the veteran to address the challenges they
