♪ let's get started strong words from the founder of wikileaks, directed at democratic presidential nominee hillary clinton. as you can see, this sister hottest story 5 at 6:30, we invite you to join in, tweet us using that hash. she was vowing to release bombshell information about hillary clinton. >> he claims the organization has thousands

to release them in stages >> wikileaks being a campaign against wikileaks because they're worried about publication. we have a perfect record or decade of never gotten wrong with what we published. they can't attack the substance, the evidence we produce >> what can we expect to be revealed? let's brick in jesse burns, a staff writer for the hill. what does he have? do we have any idea what has he on hillary clinton? >> we don't. we know that obviously, he's not a friend of clinton. whatever he purports to have would presumably be damaging. whether it reaching the level of 20,000 produce last month before the democratic convention remains to be seen >> for our viewers who don't know the back story, whats is beef between the clinton campaign and

>> goes back several years, essentially, he has not liked a lot of the what they've advocated. going back to her being secretary of state over libia and recently the e-mails that wikileaks produced right before the dnc forced the resignation of top officials, kind of created a heac campaign. we do understand he has e-mails. but i think the focus will be on clinton >> does he just want to bring her down? what does gain by bringing her down >> they just want wikileaks is an antisecrecy organization. and so they want more transparency regarding clinton and trump and their policy is entirely inner workings of what they might be advocating. having said that, at the end of the day it's trump or clinton

is going to say that he is a neutral but exactly what he has, it's going to be big and from a new angle. what that means, this is the 2016 race, seems like we've seen every angle. we'll see if he actually comes through >> it will be interesting if there is some new angle in this document. so once this happens, i'm cures, is the clinton campaign concerned? how are they responding to these latest allegations another dump is coming. >> they haven't really engaged yet. at least formally and i think if there is something that he has, they would prefer it to come sooner rather than later. there's a reason it's called the october surprise. it comes a month before the election. if -- if wikileaks actually has something that might be damaging, they would want it out there as soon as possible >> do you see movement from the clinton campaign

any action on this now to defend her? >> we haven't seen movements and two, there's the possibility that some are except tall about asaunge having something big. and what it is, no one knows, officially, the clinton campaign is not going to engage with this until something more concrete comes out >> defend her from what? but in advance, >> thanks storage for coming in. sarah palin back in the news defending donald trump, and saying she's not worried about claims he's gone soft on aggravation, which is creating a lot of buzz. >> she said trump didn't garner a lot of enthusiastic support by being soft on anything. the chairman of the northern virginia republican political action committee joins us. thanks for being here. is sarah palin right? she went in a little bit on him

being wish she wash she, saying if he did it the outcome wouldn't be right. >> i think it may have been portrayed in the beginning as a tougher policy than it was. he's been consistent on he wants, whether you like the idea or not, people can see he's been consistent on wanting to build a wall, wanting to secure the borders >> didn't he is he wanted to support the 11 million undocumented immigrants >> what he's talked about is when people are brought in by the justice system for other reasons, then you send them back. so that the been mainly sending folks who have committed crimes, you know, back. not, you know, not, not general deportation. that has not generally been what he's been saying. >> i think you might be able to admit he came out of the box really, really tough on in his word and has softened a little bit. wouldn't you agree with that?

>> he does a lot of press conferences and i think we should note hillary clinton has done one over 250 days and i am wondering why. he does a lot of speeches and press conferences. he talks allotment if he talks about immigration 1,000 times, there's going to be couple of times where he's slightly different than what he said before. his earlier position, again when the folks are in favor of it or not. his general position has been fairly consistent. >> at the beginning, you know, he came out strong as we mentioned, he said he wanted to deport the undocumented immigrants. he seemed to waffle back and forth the last couple days. he just said yesterday next week he's going to give a speech and work out the specifics of his immigration reform plan, what does he need to say to keep the more moderate members of your party on board and also those on board with the firs

>> i think when he talkings about enforcing the laws of the country, he's not generally talking about additional laws. and immigration is a contentious issue. at conversation that he is the republican nominee is having with america to explain what he thinks in trying to get the country to vote for him. and there are a lot of -- i know we're talking about immigration but there's a lot of other issues in the campaign, but in terms of enforcing the law, you know, i know president obama has caught heat from a lot of folks for a lot of the deportation that he has done. this is an issue that -- that donald trump is trying to work out with the entire country. >> these are voters that he needs. wouldn't you agree? and the immigration issue speaks to that. >> no, he needs to -- he needs, if he can get all out of the republicans to vote for him, he seems to be reaching into a lot of democrats re

democrats, and also democrats in particularly in depressed areas where factories have closed and so on you used to be a lot of union member whose have voted democratic in the past but tending to vote for trump now. if you can take all the republican votes and add those folks to it, he can win. >> the polls are showing he doesn't have all of those votes. when he was in the primary season, we saw donald trump, you know, this harder edged donald trump and people were saying, to win all of the votes you're talking about he'd have to pivot back more to the middle. do you think we will continue -- it appears he's been pivots, will he continue to pivot more >> he needs to explain his position, he doesn't generally use a teleprompter and he'll get off topic. he sits down works out

talked about explains them. i think he's got a shot at winning >> he has pivoted before, we heard him years ago talking about his thoughts on abortion, talking about his thoughts on assault rifles and he is making slight changes to his policies, what are your thoughts about flip flopping and it may not be a full flip-flop. we've seen this hurt candidates in past race, could this potentially hurt him as he pivots to trying to win back some of those constituents he's possibly lost >> i think voters understand that people can change their views over the course of a lifetime, ronald reagan used -- was a democrat, originally, so, you know, positions of donald trump held ten years ago don't have to necessarily be consistent with the ones he holds today. if he's put out an agenda that

americans to support and obviously that he is pushing and can get folks to support, he's got a chance of being the next president of the united states. >> jim palmerly, thanks for coming in today. as the race for the white house heats up, so too is the weather in our area, we're still in the 90's. gwen tolbert is here. the weekend is going to be hot >> it is definitely going to be hot. not only are we in the 90's, the heat indices in some of our neighborhoods triple digits. the heat and humidity just really making things pretty comfortable right now outside. so, hot and humid, yes. 92 by the time we hit 7:00 and 91 at 8:00. still dry. and i want to say by the time we get a little bit later, cooling down relatively speaking by a degree or two. we're going to talk about 89.

out maybe an isolated pop-up shower or thunderstorm but that's well to the south of us, not looking at anything much going on with that. 94 degrees sunny and hot for your tomorrow, the humidity not quite as bad on saturday as it was today. but it will gradually creep into the picture by the time we get to sunday. you got a little bit of a break from that humidity before we start to feel it all over again. we know what that stickness is like. saturday, 94, sunday 92. at least we got the sunshine out there. hangs around for monday, mcdonald in full force. once we get into the week, we got another system to deal with that could give us a chance of answer isolated a storm or two popping up in the wednesday, tuesday period that could bring in a little bit of cooler drier air, we might get a little bit more of relief. by the end of the week, temperatures in the 80's, that will be a welcome sight. in the m
