2:30 am
ining through a rain forest or chilling with buddhist monks. you served three terms in congress while apparently also competing on the amazing race. still i imagine resigning is the hardest thing he'll have to do except for cleaning out his deck. anybody now how to bubble wrap pheasant feathers. >> welcome to "way too early." we start today overseas with a man hunt underway for up to three suspects that were connected to the shocking massacre inside a museum in tu know sha's capital. the gunman also killed. and the horror began around noon as tourists were exiting buses at the museum in tunis. armed militants stormed out dressed in military uniforms. they jumped out of a car and opened fire. one witness says the gunmen were, quote, shooting at
2:31 am
everything that moved but it didn't end there. as the attackers ran into the museum and took hostages dozens of people were evacuated before police and security forces traded gunfire with the gunmen. it's less than three miles from the center of the city and it triggered a lockdown in a lot of places including the parliament building. its president said his nation was now at war with terror. he vowed that the country would respond without mercy to it'ss until they are all exterminated. isis linked twitter. that's more than any other country. meanwhile thousands of tu neegss chanted free tunisia at a nighttime rally. you'll remember the arab spring began in tu know sha began when
2:32 am
the dictator was overthrown. the country has faced economic troubles since then. let's move to sweden. we're also following developing news last night out of sweden where several people were shot at a restaurant. police are confirming two victims have died but they expect the death toll to actually rise. witnesses say two men walked into a crowded restaurant and opened fire. right now authorities don't know whether this was related to terrorism or not. they're just saying that gang violence is common in the area and that gang members were inside the restaurant at the time. police are currently searching for possible suspects. well there is growing concern, obviously growing uncertainly this morning about ties between the united states and israel. that's after the prime minister netanyahu's huge victory in the elections. president obama didn't even call
2:33 am
netanyahu to congratulate him. that's something that's very rare and the white house criticized the israeli leader for what it calls devicive rhetoric toward voters. we have more. >> reporter: the white house is evaluating its policy toward middle east peace after the surprising comeback election of benjamin netanyahu. benjamin netanyahu marked his triumph with a prayer at the western wall a holy shrine and a promise to care for the security of all israelis. only hours after a celebration of his come from behind victory. >> that's incredible. everybody buried him. i'm sorry about -- this is fantastic. >> reporter: but to win he took a hard right turn warning his supporters that israeli arabs were voting in droves and reverseing commitment to a
2:34 am
palestinian state. that drew sharp criticism from the white house. the president did not call netanyahu to congratulate. the secretary of state did call him during a break in the nuclear talks with iran. closer to home where fortified walls separate israel from that palestinians, the elections hit hard. palestinians reacted with anger and frustration to his decisive victory, especially that now he's against a palestinian state. here people say they feel imprisoned and squeezed economically. zble we have to resist occasion and we should not have hopes with negotiations with such a government. many also oppose their government's hard line against peace talks. >> reporter: netanyahu's policies from the palestinian statehood to settlements from put him on a collision course
2:35 am
with the president and now this promises to make a difficult relationship even more contention. >> thank you. we're going to see what's going to happen there. it's going to be a tough two years for the president and netanyahu. going from israel to politics at home. we haven't heard from aaron shock from his resignation but his father had a lot to say about the congressman and the law. he acknowledged there were problems surrounding the republican's expense reportering but defended his son. >> i know it's a law. so yeah he broke the law. if they're going to convict him on paperwork, they're going to convict him, and that's their privilege. if it's the law and he broke the law and they want to convict him on that fine but he has done a lot of good in his life.
2:36 am
aaron is a little different. you know? he wears stylish clothing. and yet, he's not gay, so everybody is throwing up their arms. they can't figure out aaron, so he must be crooked. you know so attack him. >> that's a father obviously upset for his sob and proud of him and hoping for the best. the resignation is going the end the house ethics information. that's off the table and according to a spoke's person everything has been repaid to the go. . as for his future once he steps down later this month, dr. shock still has high hopes for his son. >> ten years from now, whatever he's doing, he'll be successful. i promise you that.
2:37 am
two years from now he'll be successful if he's not in jail. >> well that's to be seen. a criminal investigation still is possible. shock plans to resign at the end of this month on march 31th. let's turn to presidential politics and you know all of the talk about hillary clinton's e-mails and all the concerns among some democrats that this was going to impact her run for the white house, well in the short term that is certainly not the case. a new poll out suggesting her standing in the field of potential democratic candidates has remained unchanged by the use of her private e-mails while serving as secretary of state. a cnn poll shows joe biden trailing by 47 percentage points. the same as february. and nearly in 7 and 10 democrats
2:38 am
believe hillary clinton is their best chance to keep the white house in democratic hands and then when you match her up against republicans, she's doing just as well too. you see here that clinton leads jeb bush 55 to 40 %. you put scott walker against her, she leads. the senator that comes with closest, rand paul. he got 43% of americans saying they'd be more likely to back him. with hillary, it's more of the same. let's turn now to business investigators on wall street received good news after the federal reserve released the economic forecast. that drove stocks up across the board but could that be short-lived. the fed concluded with all signs pointing to an e eventual hike of interest rates later this year. let's go to london. steve, obviously this is going to be the first hike in a long long time. what's the time frame for it
2:39 am
many. >> reporter: that's the big question. the good news was that chairman yellish in her conversation, he was looking all day to point not just the very strong headline employment rate as well. and obviously the unemployment rate has been coming down but she's also looking at inflation. the strength of the dollar the weight of manufacturing as well. she was hulkish in waking away the word patience. there could be a june or october rate hike but it's thereafter that it gets interesting. it's the pace of the rate hikes that everyone is looking at and they are saying after this meeting it's been lessened a bit. yes a hike but not as aggressive as previously thought. and raising wages. $9 per hour is going to be what it's going to be. that's going to be in 1800
2:40 am
stores since april. the federal minimum wage stuck lower still. >> thank you so much. greatly appreciate it. still ahead on "way too early." new twists and turns in the murder case against robert durst. could there be more victims? was he planning to stipkip town before his arrest. and another story coming up. an intriguing one that we'll connect the dots. that and a check on weather. and this weather forecast miserable. thank you for nothing, bill karins when "way too early" comes back. disarm iraq and free its people and to defend the world from grave danger.
2:41 am
