8:00 am
good morning. 11:00 a.m. eastern, 8:00 a.m. pacific, i am josé diaz-balart. right now deadly and destructive hurricane fiona is strengthening as it barrels towards the kurbgz and caicos. it could become a category 4 soon. we're live in puerto rico with the wide-spread devastation the storm left there, and millions
8:01 am
still don't have drinking water or power, and more than 1,000 people have been rescued so far. in the dominican republic, mudslides and sinkholes are a big concern. this is just what we can see. rescuers are still trying to reach remote areas that are cut off. and also the immigration fight, a texas sheriff now look into the florida's unprecedented move to fly immigrants to martha's vineyard. donald trump's legal team has one more hour to respond to a justice department request for a partial stay of the march largo special master order, and in three hours, that same special master will hold a hearing with the trump team and doj, and it comes as trump's team is pushing back one of the
8:02 am
requests made by one of the lawyers they retained. and what will you be watching for once this conference gets started at 2:00 p.m. eastern? >> right, i think there's going to be a lot of lead up to that 2:00 p.m. hearing at the brooklyn courthouse, and you will see trump's attorneys meeting alongside the doj prosecutors and the judge, that appointed special prosecutor who was first put forward as an option by trump's team to judge cannon in florida, and the doj came back and said they would be fine with the appointment of the judge who is the senior federal judge here in brooklyn, to be the one that would work his way
8:03 am
through these more than 100 classified documents to determine questions of potential attorney/client privilege, or executive privilege. it was over this weekend here in which it was put forward by the judge himself to trump's team, and the question with what evidence they have to suggest that these documents may have been declassified by donald trump, as the former president has suggested. then last night in a response, it was trump's attorneys who pushed back to the suggestion that they should put forward any of the evidence making the suggestion that there would be key evidence for them as part of any defense if the former president or any potential aides were to be indicted. again, though, we are also awaiting just one hour from now trump's legal team to send its response to the 11th circuit court of appeals in atlanta. it was on friday that the doj appealed the decision to have a
8:04 am
special master exist in the first place, and it was over the course of this weekend in which the 11th circuit court of appeals came back and said they are implementing the noon deadline here on tuesday for trump's team to respond, and of course, it's the doj's hope that the 11th circuit were to implement a stay and allow the justice department to look at the more than 100 documents in the investigation of the classified material there at mar-a-lago. >> give us a bigger picture, tom, of the issues in the trump team and what is going on in the courtroom? >> i think a couple different things. first off, this is kind of -- well, the whole thing is kind of unusual, right? we never had this issue come up with a former president, and the idea that we would have a special master is not all that uncommon, and the idea of what is classified and not classified may be, frankly, a red herring,
8:05 am
and we know from the search warrant filed none of the charges were filed as potential charges by the fbi involve any sort of classified material, in other words you did not need to possess classified or declassified material, and it had to do with the keeping of records or information that is important to the national defense, and that's not necessarily a trip wire for charges. putting all that aside, i think one of the things the trump team is concerned about from their filing last night is that should they attack the search warrant itself, which would then preclude prosecutors and investigators from using anything that they seized from mar-a-lago, and a key part of that, it's called a rule 41 motion, might rely on the idea that the former president on his way out of the oval office, in fact, declassified the documents. that's the first thing. the second thing is, they said if there's an indictment they may want to use that as a
8:06 am
defense, and it could be all mute, and it could go to judge cannon, whom the special master works for, and they could say is this part of the review you want to have happen or not, and she could make this a mute issue and that's not something this special master will need to contend with. there's all sorts of different parameters and factors at play here, and probably not all going to be decided on today, although a significant amount of it could be, and that's something that we need to keep in mind going forward. i did just check the appellant court, josé, and nothing filed yet from trump's attorney, so they have approximately 53 minutes to get that done. >> kyle, expanding on what tom was talking about, you have some more reporting on those materials the former president claims he declassified, and that the special master now wants him to disclose, you write, quote, and i will read this disclosing
8:07 am
those in the review, trump's attorney said it was not a requirement of the district court judge, and they added it could harm trump's defense against any criminal charges. what does the latest back and forth tell you? >> what they are trying to say is that there's no reason a special master has to make a determination for the review, and judge cannon laid out saying figure out which may be presidential records and which is trump's personal property, and trump has designated some of the document as his personal property, and if some are classified it, then it could not be his personal property. yes, while the trump team is right, judge cannon did not say
8:08 am
classification declassification is part of the mandate, but it's a natural question that is likely to determine the direction of his review, and so i would expect him to talk about that in court today. >> kyle, tom and vaughn, thank you for being with us this morning. turning to the intensifying hurricane fiona, it could become a category 4 soon as it goes towards the turks and caicos. the storm triggered dangerous mudslides and sinkholes and collapsing bridges and destroying homes in the dr. and one man died there. and then at least four people are dead in puerto rico, and millions without power or water this morning. and we're getting a close look
8:09 am
at the devastation. also meteorologist, michelle grossman, has a new update on the storm's track. today marks five days to the day fiona went through puerto rico. tell us what you are seeing today? >> reporter: good morning, josé. the anniversary of hurricane maria hitting very close to home for many of the residents. i am in salinas, puerto rico, and this is the southern part of the island and you see residents starting to clean up. they are back for the first time since this home was flooded on sunday when the torrential rains came down. you see they have portable generators here. so many people here in puerto rico do. this home actually was damaged during hurricane maria, but they say it did not get this amount of water with maria as it did
8:10 am
fiona. and we are moving slowly because it's slippery here, josé. they have been cleaning all morning, and the water got up several inches in this home, and in this neighborhood it was only overnight that the floodwaters receded. you see all of this mud here, you know, where the residents lost all their belongings, and they cleaned it out, and this happened over and over again throughout southern puerto rico. only 19% of the island or so has power. only about two-thirds do not have adequate drinking water, and that is a major concern at this point, josé. you see the residents here, they are trying to get bottled water and gas to fuel the generators that they need to survive. puerto rico's governor said more than 1,000 people had to be
8:11 am
rescued, really, throughout the island overnight. more than 2,000 were actually in emergency shelters. right now there's a lot of frustration from some residents about why the power grid was not rebuilt more effectively since hurricane maria. i spoke with the governor yesterday about that and here's what he said. was the government here on the island prepared? >> definitely. much better prepared than when maria happened. >> reporter: of course there's some skepticism from some residents here about what the governor is saying. some don't trust that the private company, consortium, that took over the power last year will be able to restore the power in a timely fashion, and the governor said he wants it to be restored within days and not months like with maria. >> and 800,000 without drinking
8:12 am
water, and michelle, meanwhile there's an update on the storm's path and intensity? >> yeah, the latest as of 11:00, we're still dealing with the category 3 storm expecting it to strengthen over the next day or so and it's over really warm waters and that's why we are seeing the strengthening happening, and it's moving so slowly it's allowing a lot of rain to drop and it's allowing a lot in the atmosphere, and it's moving slowly at 9 miles per hour. we will be talking about this storm for the next four days at least. we have a hurricane warning for the turks and caicos, and that's in the red, and also for the southeastern bahamas. we are seeing hurricane conditions in turks and caicos right now. we will see the track blossom over the next 24 hours. and it could strengthen earlier
8:13 am
and as it makes its way to the north, and it makes its way to the east as well, and then later wednesday into thursday as a category 3 storm, and on the right side we are looking at bermuda, the island, and then we could see the category 4 storm and then it become a category 3 storm. we have really warm waters to the north, and a marine layer that has been in place all summer long and we are looking at a category 2 storm still by saturday, and north atlantic canada could see a historical storm by this weekend. back to you. >> michelle and gabe, thank you both very much. red cross teams are in puerto rico right now, and if you would like to help visit redcross.org, and you can text the world red cross to $90999 to make a $10 donation. coming up the flights of immigrants to martha's vineyard

is the subject of an investigation. later, the subject of a popular true crime podcast walks out of prison. first, new details about the january 6th committee's next hearing scheduled for next week, and liz cheney reveals a story she heard the day of the riots. >> as i was sitting there, a member came in and he signed his name on each one of the state's sheets, and he said under his breath, the things we do for the orange jesus. smoky capicola, genoa salami and pepperoni! it's the dream team of meats. i've still got my uniform. it's subway's biggest refresh yet.

8:18 am
about the house january 6th committee's investigation. committee chairman says they are still on track to hold the next hearing a week from tomorrow but they are still finalizing who the witnesses will be, and he resealed the committee has requested testimony from the secret service, and his name came up from former white house aide, cassidy hutchison. and joining us is former doj chief spokesman, matt miller. what have they been saying about who they are reaching out to?
8:19 am
>> reporter: josé, still a lot of questions about what the committee is spotlighting next week, and according to chairman thompson there that spoke with us at dusk last night, there are some things they figured out, specifically the date and time. listen. so the meeting on the 28th, that's officially in the books now? >> absolutely. >> reporter: you have reached out to witnesses for it? do you plan on having any witnesses? >> that's still part of a discussion whether we will have witnesses or not. we have a lot of information that we have collected over the last year that we have not shown the public, and we believe that information on its own is significant enough for a hearing. >> reporter: we also know, josé, this committee has been information gathering with other people in the former administration of donald trump in the weeks after that initial round of public hearings. certainly there might be new interviews, too, for them to give to the public in this
8:20 am
latest hearing. the thing we are also waiting for them to decide on are what they are going to do with the five republican lawmakers who are currently ignoring subpoenas from the committee, and of course, that question that looms over all of this which is will the committee to ask for trump or pence or both to come before them and have a conversation. these are the questions the committee is grappling with as the clock ticks down for them to actually come back into the public eye. >> matt, who are some of the names that have come up that you think we should be hearing from in a public hearing? >> it would be good to hear from the former secret service agent that you mentioned. if you recall, they heard from cassidy hutchison that made clear that he made the account that the president wanted to go to the capitol, and he said he
8:21 am
would come up and testify, and magically before he was going to come and testify he retired so he was not compelled to do so by his service in the secret service. he could come forward and testify -- if he wants to dispute that he could come forward at any point, and he left the service and that shows he is not willing to dispute that on the record, and we can take the account that cassidy gave to us as truth. >> speaking at an event yesterday, liz cheney had strong remarks about republican leaders and donald trump. here's part of what she had to say. >> and as i was sitting there, a member came in and signed his name on each one of the state's sheets, and then he said under his breath, the things we do for
8:22 am
the orange jesus. >> congresswoman cheney proposed the electoral count act which the house is set to vote on, and do you see this going anywhere? is this going to quell the voter fraud rhetoric? >> it won't quell the voter fraud rhetoric but it would go a long way to giving congress the tools to reject challenges and shut them down. i think there's a sense of urgency on the hill from democrats and a few republicans outside of liz cheney to reach an agreement before congress adjourns in case the house flips, and the threat, as made clear from that quote that liz cheney revealed, is still quite acute, and it's not just a threat posed by donald trump.

brochure about cash assistance and jobs for refugees, and an asylum seeker died in new york by suicide over the weekend. joining us now is emily from new york, and mark is here in the studio. what do we know about the woman that died in new york and what is the city doing about this? >> still limited details because of the nature of the incident, but new york city's mayor, eric adams, he describes her as a young mother that died by suicide in one of the shelters, and he believes she was traumatized from being transferred, and he is pointing the finger at texas governor, greg abbott, that bussed now

rounded up these various migrants from san antonio, and allegedly they were homeless and they were given fast-food vouchers to feed themselves, and they were according to the state of florida, given a night to stay, and according to the migrant's lawyers now, they were misled, and they said if you go to massachusetts, they don't have a migrant problem, you can get jobs and you can get housing and cash assistance. they gave these apparently a brochure, and the brochure appears to be printed by these vendors from or with florida, and not from the state of massachusetts refugee office, and that's according to the refugee office that told me that today. the other problem is migrants are not refugees, and refugees are a specific term in immigration law, and they are
