6:30 pm
>> hi, everyone, the president is calling it a bill of love. new developments tonight in his two-step approach to fixing the immigration system. as you can see from the run down on the side of the screen this is what we're talking about tonight at 6:30. president trump once again sending shock waves through the immigrant community he meta bipartisan group of senators following his announcement to end the temporary protected status granted i am grabts from el salvador. it could force nearly 200,000 people to leave the us by september 2018. some members of coming are trying to find permanent re solutions to re store programs like tps and da
6:31 pm
ca. ronica cleary is following this one tonight. she starts off us off with more. >>reporter: jim and shawn, immigration seems to be on the schedule every case, obviously talking about the temporary protected status individuals yesterday and then today having this bipartisan meeting at the white house with over 20 republican and democrat lawmakers. i'll tell you it was a show of transparency unlike anything i have you ever seen. it was originally on today's schedule as a closed precedent that even the white house press pool wouldn't be permitted for what they call a spray when they can come in and take some video they were permitted inside after about five minutes the president said maybe we'll let them stay a little while longer and then it was nearly an hour that the cameras were rolling and we got to see this back and forth and rally damnic conversation growing between republicans, democrats and the president and
6:32 pm
how we solve the immigration crisis in this country, the debate that is going on between democrats and republicans and that key issue of daca and the dreamers. take a listen. let's look inside this unprecedented display. take a listen. i think my positions are going to be what the people in this room come up with. i am very much reliant on the people in this room. we have an opportunity, i think, before us to get this done forth american people. when it comes to chain migration and the lottery system we saw two recent terror attacks in new york that were the result of this i think failed immigration policy. we like to see that fixed. what about a clean daca bill now with a commitment that we go in to a comprehensive immigration reform procedure like we did back on, remember when kennedy was here. it was really a
6:33 pm
it was a great disappointment that it went nowhere. i like the idea that both sides have pressure to solve the daca issue , but i think the bigger issue here is not just the daca issue but what can we do to start the path to the steps that solve this immigration problem? now, eventually reporters they were asked to leave and that's when the deal was made, if you will, the agreement on what they're calling phase one of immigration reform. these are the four key priorities that they agreed to work on in phase one. border security of course a key tenant of the trump presidency, ending chain migration, ending the visa lottery program and a permanent solution to daca. now phase two they're saying would be comprehensive immigration reform . now, as jim you you said in the beginning you you called this a bill of love. so we spoke with actually a former dreamer
6:34 pm
take on whether or not this is a bill of love in light of the four key pillars, if you you will, that the administration wants to see included? take a listen. >> i don't see the love in the legislation that would use dreamers as bargaining chips for a border wall that is not supported and would truly be a waste of money and also there is a lot of daca recipients that live along the border and their lives would not be positively affected by legislation that includes a wall. now, interestingly enough the administration has changed their tuna bit, if you will much the wall is no longer the only thing they talk about when they talk about border security. now they say the wall is just one piece of, you know, securing our border. the president today even saying there are parts of the border that don't need a wall. but when it comes to whether or not mexico will pay for it when sarah huckabee sanders was asked about that, she says
6:35 pm
back to you jim and shawn. >> thank you, ronica. developing tonight, former white house strategist steve bannon stepping down from his role of bright bart news. bannon was forced out by millionaire backer rebecca mercer. she kept ties with him earlier this month following his revelations in michael wolf's explosive book about the trump administration. i'm proud of what the bright bart team has accomplished in so short period of time in building out a world news background. there is serious satellite radio , as part of the deal when he went back to bright bart he said he was going to host a radio show. it's going to be interesting to see if and when and where he pops back up again he wants to make sure that he keeps his brand or whatever it is, the steve bannon voice out there. his bridges have been torched.
6:36 pm
happened these days. >> who knows, we could see him back in the white house, you never know. >> let's move on. we have more on the historic negotiations between the two koreas. today they held their first talks. they will hold future talks on reducing military talks. next month's winter olympics in south korea. the north korea delegation will include athletes , people and apparently people to carry the microphones in front of kim jong un. they march during the winter games. >> the russian probe, special kowns i am robert mueller plans to speak with president trump, but talks on how it would work are underway and they could include anything from possible written responses to questions instead of a formal sit down. should the president be interviewed by musclier's team. immigration reform
6:37 pm
us right now. the last time we heard about the council testifying, was during the clinton administration. this is not unchartered waters. >> that's right. this is an unusual situation, obviously because it's a president. also, i think the president has a pretty difficult choice here. he's employed the strategy so far of cooperating with the special council's investigation and his team both legal and political teams have made a big deal about that, this they're open. he's said several times that a he would be willing to talk and willing to go under oath. and so for him to now not agree to speak with musclier willingly would be a real change and i think politically would not look very good for him. and then the flip side of that he's got to balance the political, you know,
6:38 pm
ing or not agreeing to an interview with mueller, with the possible criminal exposure. any time someone, a potential target which the president is certainly of the obstruction investigation and likely also of the russia probe, any time that a potential target agrees to speak with federal investigators, even if they're not under oath, they face potential criminal exposure if they tell material untruths. that's a risk here. if you were on the other side of this instead of being in your former federal prosecutor role, if you were president trump's lawyer and the mueller team said we would like to talk to him, what would you advise the president to do? >> i think most legal experts, current and former defense attorneys are saying and i completely understand why they're saying this, that it would not be wise to have the president s
6:39 pm
certainly in some unsort of disciplined way, that they are willing to control the narrative as much as possible either through limiting the topics. i think the idea of a written statement, written questions, i really, really doubt mueller is going to agree to that. i think his lawyers, if they could avoid it altogether they probably would like to and i understand that way of thinking. i will say, however, that a, you you know, persuasive individual who truly believes in their innocence and has explanations to give can accomplish that in an interview with investigators it is possible to change the mind of investigators if the root they're going down is towards charging him or people p around him. but it's risky and i understand why people are saying that his lawyers should want to keep him away from the
6:40 pm
investigators or certainly keep it as limited as possible. >> but there is a very congress their and kind of, -- it's a different school of thought that maybe he can persuade that wrks he when he fired former fbi quoam i, he was not intending to obstruct justice. mimi robing a , thanks so much for your perspective. we'll all be watching to see how this one turns out. >> do police need your permission before they search your rental car. >> it is a case that could have serious implications for the millions of car renters each year. tom fitzgerald is live at the supreme court. this races a loft different questions for a lot of different people. >>reporter: it does, shawn and jim. here's the thing when you rent a car, you you don't own that car. you're essentially signing an agreement with the rental company to take possession of that car, but if the police pull you ove
6:41 pm
they decide to want to search your vehicle, well, if it's not really your vehicle could you give permission for it to be searched? and that is at the heart of this case that was heard today at the us supreme court. there are a lot of implications riding on this and conservative legal analyst over the heritage foundation john michael say blij says if the court decides to over turn the pennsylvania law that is in question here, in his opinion it could prevent an obstacle or be an obstacle to police when they try to search vehicles. the petitioner here is arguing that if you have potential and control of this rental car then you you have a privacy interest but the government says, hold on a second, that means even car thieves would have a privacy interest. the government is essentially saying you've gonna a little bit too far here. now, all of this stems from an incident that took place in pennsylvania.
6:42 pm
man was pulled over in a rental car. he was not on the rental agreement. it was actually rent ed out to his fiance. when pennsylvania state police said that they wanted to search his car, he said he didn't agree. pennsylvania police said that since he wasn't on the rental agreement he could not give or not give that permission so they searched the car anyway. they found more than 2,000 bags of heroin in that vehicle and that man was sentenced to ten years in prison. now, the implications of this case are great because we went to go to talk to noted d.c. defense attorney david been wits today and he says this, given the growth of car sharing companies in our area like uber, like lyft , like zip car, this decision, riding on this, could have far reaching ramifications, especially based upon whether or not you even have a car loan and officers decide that you don't
6:43 pm
actually own that car, your bank does. if the court were to hold -- were to up hold this decision by the state court, i think all of a sudden you would be seeing thousands of searches of not just rental cars, but lawmplet would try and expand this to uber, to lyft, to car or to go but then to a car that is quote, owned by someone like me that would be the end of the fourth amendment really as it relates to cars. so that's all that's riding on this, the end of the fourth amendment. it's a pretty big deal. there are 114 million car rentals in this country every year, so a lot of people are going to be paying attention to how the justices decide this case. now, the supreme court term right now is going to run through the end of june. jim and shawn, i can tell you that it's expected that this decision on this quais has come down before that. we should find out sooner rather than later exactly how
6:44 pm
decided h this h. thank you very much, fitz, we appreciate it. >> a controversial shear hive makes a big announcement. joe arpaio says he's running for the national. more on this when 5@6:30 comes right back.
6:45 pm
6:46 pm
>> the former arizona sheriff who avoided possible jail time thanks to that presidential pardon now plans to run forth us snot senate. joe arpaio was a sheriff in arizona gaining international attention t. as the toughest sheriff in america it was found gflt intentionally disohed bying a judge's order from. i'm running because i know i have a background to do something in washington. not just shear hive. i think i'm the best guy to support the people of arizona. i've been here since 1978.
6:47 pm
part he wants to quote, support the agenda and poly ses of president trump in his mission to make america great again. today's law enforcement appreciation day meant to recognize the service and sacrifices of officers and families and the ones they make every day. there are people who do not support nor respect law enforcement. the question is how do we bridge the gap in vincent hill host of beyond the batch joins us via skype. thanks so much for joining us. that is the big question, how do we bridge the gap? we have communities that for years have had a mistrust or a fear of police. we have police that are put in situations or communities that they don't know or they're not familiar with. how do we bridge that gap? well, i think the biggest thing for people to realize first is police the only job that in the job description, although it's not told we all have jobs with job descriptions, but we do extra stuff
6:48 pm
only job where you're asked to give your life in protection of a perfect stranger. you you think back to dallas, the five officers who protected the proceeds testers, that's what they did. if you you think back , i'll be 45 tomorrow. i can remember gruff the crime dog . i can remember police coming to schools to talk to kids. we need to start telling police are their friends and not the enemy and start having these conversations. >> how do you do that? there are kids that grow up in climates when they're told police are bad, police are not on our side. i saw that in law enforcement myself. don't talk to him, ease the bad guy. don't talk to him he wants to take you to jail. he'll hurt you. i think if we just sit down, have these conversations, we have the community understand what police go through, it's in the a beautiful job. you see things in that job that no one needs to see just like reporters report on things they don't want to rert
6:49 pm
we start having these conversations to say, okay, this is why police react to this. if you do this, police will do that . once we start teaching that compliance, that understand ing, it starts to build that gap and then police also go out and learn the community that they're protecting. one of the things you can do that i always did, get out of your car, walk around , go talk to people. that's what it's all about. it sounds like you were talking about community policing which certainly we've heard for years should be the key to changing all of this. absolutely. absolutely. we've gotten away from that unfortunately but we need to get back to it. that's the only way we can change this current climate. speaking of the current climate right now, before we go, how do tu feel on the government level that local police departments are being supportedded in do you feel that there's been a difference over the last couple of years, maybe the change of administrations or has it always been roughly the same level? >> i think with the new administration there is more of a push to support law enforcem
6:50 pm
in the previous administration. that's just my personal opinion that doesn't necessarily make it true or fact, but i think any time law enforcement is told that hey, we support you in do ing your job, that's key right now because what you you see now is a lot of cities, if you look at baltimore where crime has gone up, that's because police are afraid to do their jobs because they don't want to be the next person on the news. i think that's what we need to do vincent hill thanks so much for onioning us. we appreciate your perspective and we certainly appreciate the job that law enforcement do around our country. >> on the move, the global headquarters for discovery communications is moving and it's going to effect thousands of local workers. to their breeding grounds. except for these two fellows. this time next year, we're gonna be sitting on an egg.
6:51 pm
make a u-turn... u-turn? recalculating... man, we are never gonna breed. just give it a second. you will arrive in 92 days. nah, nuh-uh. nope, nope, nope. you know who i'm gonna follow? my instincts. as long as gps can still get you lost, you can count on geico saving folks money. i'm breeding, man. fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance.
6:52 pm
discovery communications the anchor
6:53 pm
springs announced today it's moving it's ' headquarters to new york city. it came as de spite what was a very generous offer to stay. paul wagner has the details. >>reporter: this was a shocking announcement, discovery communications which has only been here for less than two decades is moving, saying it needs to create a new model with a changing media landscape. as you can imagine, county leaders are upset, especially county executive ike leg it. i'm disappointed to stay the least. this has been an ongoing discussion over the past year. they've made a strategic decision about how they want to move forward. i don't think it has anything to do with the county's offer between the county and the state. we put up an offer that is larger than any that i can recall in the county 's history. when discovery communications announced in 1998 it
6:54 pm
to downtown silver springs and would be building its headquarters there it was what county leaders viewed as the anchor it needed to what had become a ceded down town silver springs. now the company is leaving taking it's 1300 jobs out of the corner of georgia road and coles mill road. with some people he staying in maryland and others moving to a hub in sterling, virginia and still others going to a new campus in knoxville, tennessee or the new headquarters in new york city. the company which owns animal planet, tlc and investigation discovery does make money. in 2016 it announced a profit of more than a billion dollar, but in order to maintain that profit, discovery decided it needed a new model. we love maryland. we love silver springs. this has nothing to do with silver springs. this is everything to do with the changing media landscape and how we can best operate our company and have the operating leverage to go forward .
6:55 pm
we love this community and we want to stay in this community, whatever that presence is and ike and the team bent over backwards. maryland is business friendly. montgomery county is business friendly. last summer discovery bought scripts which is based in knoxville, tennessee . some employees will be going there, as i mentioned, others will be staying here in the area and others will be going to new york. this building will be sold, but at this point it's unclear who may buy it. in silver springs, paul wagner, fox5 local news. >> and we're back after this. and has for almost two decades. novec also uses proven technology and round-the-clock response to maintain one of the highest utility customer satisfaction ratings in the nation. novec. keeping you connected.
