here is alexis. >> all right.ortunately if you're traveling on 580 westbound between dublin and castro valley, not a good start to the day for you. all lanes still shut down due to this flipped big rig. i think it will be several hours until it's fully cleared. the folks stuck behind this just not moving. as far as i know, they have not let any vehicles through. we're talking at least an hour delay. i'm reading comments on waze stuck in this. you can use dublin canyon for an alternate. that's the surface street south of the interstate. or you can take 680 north or south to get around that. but we do have two issues on southbound 680. just before sheridan, a vehicle fire that was the result of a crash with a semi. that's blocking the middle lane. not sure on injuries for that one. another crash just south of there before auto mall parkway involving a semi and sedan. this one pushed off to the shoulder. next traffic update coming up just before 5:30. >>> stephen hawking is being laid to rest at westminster abbey. th

in this particular delegation, no republicans, alexi? >> i don't know that that's surprising given the way that the president and his administration handled this so far. the president signaling in the tweet yesterday that republicans efforts to find a deal on immigration via legislation is there and they should punt it until the mid teterm elections. one thing i'll note, so many are women and this is an issue we've seen really affecting women and women here in washington on the hill on both sides of the isle in a way that i haven't really seen other issues affecting them and that includes republican women, lawmakers here in washington although none of them are there but this is really speaking to the heart of this issue, which is that it is tearing apart families and really affecting women and that's powerful today. >> affecting so many women and girls and that's what we heard there from congressman himes and that's the target group for traffickers, both 2340north of border and south of the border taking advantage of young girls traffick

alexi, i'm going to start with you first, the topic of immigration. why does the president insist on blaming democrats when it was his attorney general who announced weeks ago that the zero tolerance policy will include separating parents from their kids. >> as kelly just mentioned there's a lot of calculus behind the midterm elections. the majority of americans, something like 72 wants dreamers, give dreamers the benefit of the doubt. i think that shows that people on both sides of the aisle of immigrant children brought here illegal deserve the benefit of the doubt. he's encouraging not only his base but signalling to independents or low-frequency voters to show up at the polls and vote not for democrats but for republicans on the issue of immigration. >> what does he think, the voters he's pulling in are not going to know what the truth is? alex, democrats said that democrats can fix the broken border by working on legislation. what is that, putting pressure on the democrats? trying to reach a compromise, is that what he's happening? and will that
