larry cohen jones me and also with us annette tebeo, vice chair of the florida democratic party., looking at right to work this seems to be an issue that the republicans are quiet about, but on a state level where they're making a push here. how successful do you think they could be? >> i think they can be successful. unfortunately they've gotten a majority that is you know vetoproof, and it's really difficult for these minorities at the state houses and state senates to overrule. so it takes the rest of us people like you to talk and to let people no and let the republicans know that we don't want toss right to work states. i love in one. this is a real avalanche comer. number one what does it mean to the workers? and number two, what is the best way to filed it. what it means is raising wages or eliminating bargaining power. for those of you who have unions, we have to constantly link up our own goals of keeping up with our own product activity. if right to work just means union dues it's a losing issue for working people. if it means raising wages and having rights on the jobs

but annette, brad's wife, was getting very much attached to living in suburban washington.brad bishop obviously was under pressure. >> he actually purchased a motorcycle because he liked to be alone, he liked the privacy of being on a motorcycle, the solitude. >> it wasn't crucial at that point in his career that he would be promoted to the next rank, but in his own mind, it was everything. he felt he had to get promoted. >> bishop's wife that morning spent three hours with an acquaintance saying, i need to find work, we're in serious financial straits here. >> brad bishop ran into several people at the office that day, and he was short-tempered, he's angry that morning. finally tells his supervisor he doesn't feel well and that he's going home. >> i was on my way back to the state department at the 21st street entrance, and suddenly, there in front of me is brad bishop. i said, you look like you've lost your best friend. he said, i didn't get promoted, it's now official. i said, well, i didn't, either. he said but i'm far more deserving than you. i said, well, why don't yo

for "nightly business report," i'm annette visor in frankfurt. >> to michelle caruso-cabrera in athens greece. >> reporter: this is a massive rally for the sarisa party, the radical left. the leader of which could be the next prime minister of greece after the election held on sunday. this rally occurs on the same day the european central bank anounlss that greece will not participate in the massive quantitative easing program at least not at first. the head of the ecb, mario draghi said that greece has to be in compliance with its bailout program and right now, it's not. and the leader of this party said he doesn't want the program. he wants to change and even the ecb to do the amount of loans they've already extended to greece. a massive proportion. large volatility in the market and not clear whether the people understand what's at stake. for "nightly business report," i'm michelle caruso-cabrera athens greece. >> seema mody has reaction from london london. >> r t financial capital cheer the massive stimulus move and we saw that play out. the investors rotating out of european bonds

annette, what can you tell us? >> reporter: i can tell you that san jose police say one of its officers was driving in the area and saw the fire and reported it in. as you can see behind me, crews are still actively trying to get the upper hand on this fire. it is still active. you can see the ladder truck is out, spraying water on the building. when you see white smoke, that means they are getting the upper hand. it appears that this is an abandoned warehouse, although it's hard to tell because we're being septembkept so far back. the wire fence around the building seems to indicate it is an empty building. it quickly grew to a three-alarm fire. as we were headed here on highway 87, you could see the orange glow in the night sky. the cause of the fire is still under investigation. but many of the empty buildings in this area are occupied by homeless people who like to start a little campfire to keep warm. that's not confirmed, but that has been known to happen in the area. we are also hearing reports of wires down

i'm a twofer. >> annette, does this raise money for him? last time huckabee ran it was a dollar to a donut. he was way behind the curve. what does this do for him? >> i really believe he's trying to sell books. i mean that's what i think he's trying to do because i don't know how he's trying to get elected this way. but maybe since it is such a big number of people trying to run for president, he's trying to get a specific right wing white male voting block. i don't understand it. but i think he's trying to sell books, honestly. >> the number one selling book in the last five years is "fifty shades of gray." his book about gravy and no sex ain't going to cut it. >> not only that we really have to look at what mike hukckabee is showing us. he thinks that we have forgotten as a governor he had all these ethics challenges some of them that look a lot like bob mc mcdonald. i'm not saying he should go to jail. even when he was running in the primary with mitt romney, the religious intolerance displayed by mike huckabee is shameful at this point.

annette raez is live with more on why these d.c. leaders are making the push right now. jeanette? >> all right, autria. the fight is on this afternoon to get back to the rights, the news conference wrapped up a couple of hours ago. couple of dozen people people in attendance and in a passionate speech on capitol hill, eleanor holmes norton expressed the frustration with the loss of voting rights. it's a struggle that's been ongoing for two centuries. muriel bowser sat alongside norton as the delegate announced in less than 24 hours, she'll call on republicans to restore the distri house floor in the committee of the whole. muriel bowser offered her support to the cause including renewed efforts to statehood. take a listen. >> i will rise from my seat on the house floor to speak to win back the district's vote and the committee of the whole that was in the 103rd congress and that i have been able to exercise for three congresses. and i will make the point that in a democracy, the vote can never be tied to the party in power. the vote is tied to the people. >> we are 660,000 tax pay

as annette reyes reports, our below freezing temperature didn't stop some people from voluntarily sleeping outside last night. >> thousands woke up this morning to frigid temperatures and dangerous wind chills. >> come on in! >> others spent the night in it. >> it was cold. >> good morning! rise and shine! >> pretty much everyone. at least those who braved the freezing temperatures for over 24 hours. bundled up in these tents. no big deal. >> fantastic! a lot of ttle chilly but it was ok. we made it through the night. >> a little bit chilly. >> yeah. >> it could be worse! yes, that's possible. >> much better last night when it was blowing as negative something with wind chill. >> so why do it, any time a new chick filet opens, it holds a competition. first 100 to arrive 24 hours before and get in line get free chicken sandwich meals for a year. the catch is it's only one meal a week. still, it's become a tradition for some die hard fans. >> eighth time out. >> 15 times out. >> 51. >> this is probably one of the coldest but i've been to worse. we've been to like hurricane, craziness! >> for

annette raez spoke with fellow members. >> all day you'll hear continuous prayers from this small room. included in those prayers is a member of the temple who has been missing for several days. >> my heart felt like it was breaking in two. >> the 25-year-old and his wife went to mexico last week for a yoga retreat. on tuesday, he went for a short hike simran later texted his wife telling her he was lost and would be a little late. this room here is where hari simran teaches his yoga classes. it sits empty this afternoon as the desperate search continues in mexico. congregants at this sikh temple say they've been praying nonstop for his safe return. >> i was worried. i immediately went into a state of prayer. >> international sikh community prayed and recited a global chat for him last night. >> everybody wants, he should become alive and he should be back soon. >> i frantic search is under way in the rugged terrain. within the last hour crews were able to get access to helicopters with infrared technology. also, after several days of back and forth with t-mobile over access to g.p.s.

annette, what can you tell us?ice say one of its officers was driving in the area and saw the fire and reported it in. as you can see behind me crews are still actively trying to get the upper hand on this fire. it is still active. you can see the ladder truck is out,

. >> and i'm annette. newark memorial high school. the water swamped making the rooms unusable. the school is working to find usable, dry space. kpix5's mark kelly got to go inside the classrooms and tell us it could be a while before they are repaired. >> the superintendent, dave martin, gives us a peek inside the torn apart classrooms. >> we have a lot of work ahead of us. >> over the holiday, water filled this room like a swimming pool. >> just under the technology run here, when they discovered it and opened the doors and the water went rushing out of the classrooms. >> martin says janitors found the water 4 feet high. the culprit, the fire department's water main line, which runs right under the school. >> for some reason, it gave way and it literally exploded. >> not sure what caused the fire line to pop. happy no students were inside. they could have been hurt. >> one of the floors in one of the classrooms actually, essentially blew up almost 3 feet. up cement. could have been even more devastating. crew haves been working tirelessly to clean up the mess. desks and chairs

. -- annette. they have been meeting this sunday. what happens next? >> i think what is important is that the u.s. attorney general turned up with an important message. there will be a summit in washington with all allies, all american allies, to discuss how one can strengthen security and coordination in the wake of this attack. as we heard earlier today, the problem has been a failure to share key information between certain countries. the americans were very much focused on yemen. therefore, we saw those two brothers on a no-fly list. what happened on the same side? the resources. the friendship and concentrating on north africa, in particular. this is an issue of strengthening ties, links information, making sure everybody is on the same page. the other issue at hand is surveillance. >> what is so difficult is that the editor was living under police protection. while we had him under police protection, we also have the brothers on the radar screen of the french authorities. french authorities did not catch this. >> is it for sure that the americans

that news. >> annette. >> markets were rallying again on that news or that letter.but actually looking at the letter, it's not so much surprise what we are seeing inside there. that is essentially what mario draghi already said during the last press conference that there is unanimity when it comes to deploying further unconventional measures. but we also know that the planning of those further un conventional measures that's the tricky part of it. that's essentially what mario draghi will be presenting to the mblths to us on january 22nd. even though they don't want to call it yet deflation, they would probably coin it negative deflation. so most likely the big question remains how much the ecb is willing to pay, to buy, i should say, and whether they're going to buy sovereign debt or whether they refer to i would say a compromise for lenders like the bundes bundes bank that every central bank might buy their national debt. and the biggest question mark actually is referring to its effectiveness. as also larry summers was saying that there would not be a lot of thes

. >> and that young here annette young here. this raises the issue of sharing information between various intelligence bodies. do you think that is likely to improve? >> it happens in the aftermath of every high-profile attack. the number one recommendation every single time is that we just need to communicate more. some of those suggestions are about to maintaining trends nationally. sometimes it's about communicating between different partners. i think that is key. when we look at these cases, all of the information is there, but it has not brought together and centralized in one area. >> thank you very much indeed for being part of our special coverage. let's talk you through some of the news we are getting now on the wires. we are getting information that at least 500,000 people have turned up in the streets of paris. you can see that at the bottom of your screen. this is the location where this unity rally started about one hour ago. there are a lots of people there. somebody is being taken away. perhaps they were not feeli

. >> annette, what do you make of mitt romney floating this behind closed doors in front of donors? >> i think he realizes that the donors are competitive with jeb bush in the game and the two of them do have bad blood, especially when it comes to immigration, when jeb bush tried to get him to be more moderate on immigration and has tried to get other people. but definitely during the presidential -- and he did not listen. he had to be the most conservative conservative. how will that work for jeb when he's not really a moderate, as they claim? both mitch and i will tell you he is conservative. but when it comes to immigration, he has always believed in a path to citizenship, which may come back to bite them. that's the difference between the two of them. >> we're going back to the old questions of who is going to release the taxes. i would say mitt romney is. we're going to regurgitate a bunch of old stories. what about jeb bush? >> that's why he moved out of wall street. he basically watched the mistakes that romney made last time on the taxes and slow to pull the trigger on a lot

annette is "outfront."hen you saw about sailer and what happened to her life. in your situation, your life changed from what you expected. you were with your fiance and the plane crashed. what happened? >> we were going to a beach, my fiance set it up i was a business banker and we went for days and when i saw the size of the plane, he didn't want to because i was claustrophobic. he said it was only 15 minutes and he lied to me and it was 55 minutes. and i was very nervous about the flight already and in the 50th minute, there were people screaming. i didn't think much of it because it was a little plane like that will feel with such -- to feel such drop. and then he was scared. we kept on flying another giant drop. he grabbed for my hand i grabbed for his. and everything went black. >> and so you were holding his hand and then it just -- do you remember the impact? or then all of a sudden what is your next memory? and obviously that bang was flying into the muntd? >> . >> yes. and what happened is the plan

thank you very much, annette.e report. >>> this is what the fire looked like at about 4:15 this morning. this is from one of our traffic cameras. we saw several explosions this morning. a lot of thick smoke that was just billowing into the air. the smoke not a good this evening for our air quality, but the good news, not a lot of wind right now. we've had several spare the air days just in the month of january. >> yeah, thank goodness. in the upper levels of our atmosphere, we're getting some mixing. so we have better air quality. can actually see the hillside. but we never really get a chance to thank our local heroes, firefighters who serve this great bay area, and also police officers. thank you for what you do. you really worked hard out there this morning. now, the wind was not really a factor. it is picking up. we told you this was going to be the case. calm winds for most of the morning. also prevenning that dense fog from settling in. you need clear skies. as that wind continues to pick up, we're looking p

i just want to bring in a net -- annette, and talk about how can this be prevented these attacks.e heard from the interior ministers, we've seen european union interior ministers meeting this sunday as well. could you talk us through what came out of that? >> we are starting to get a few bits and pieces of what emerged from that meeting. i think the most important thing is what i said at the start of the broadcast -- this will now be a global summit in washington , with america and its allies. dealing with the question of how to fight terrorism. we talked about strengthening european borders, that is a problem. you have the whole point of it being the freedom of movement. how do you ensure security for your citizens, while at the same time allowing freedom of movement from other parts of europe? that something needs to be addressed, no doubt in the next weeks and months, will be talked about. along with sharing information about passengers on airlines. think the bottom line is -- we had been talking about this over and over. information and communication, the need to share. and ho

annette, good morning. caller: thank you so much, representative johnson.y. my question for you is how can we find a way for african-american communities to work more together to bring unity to our families and help with structure and jobs, to help find a way where we can make our family life better, where african-american men can be with more african-american women? i think that is really lacking and that is why we're having so many issues because african-american people are not together. we are so far apart. it is like we do not like each other. . it is likely we do not like each other. what can we do to make changes? because that is what is important. we have a lot of comments coming through c-span that are racist comments and the hate and stuff. we need to build black people up . what do we do is black people to build one another? thank you. host: congresswoman? guest: it starts with every individual. we all have that responsibility. we can go to black churches and go to our city organizations. we can go to our neighborhoods by communicating with each o

our own annette joins us with details on what you're learning on the ground and what is happening on the ground in brussels. >> thank you very much. yes. they a source was telling me that the program by the ecb might be decided -- we recently speculations that there might be a higher risk sharing model across the eurozone what the bank might like. they're against any risk sharing with the likes of greece or even italy. so what we are learning right now is that this might not be the case that contrary to that it will be a very clean according to the capital payed into the bank model if they're going to decide on having qe as soon as january 22nd. i'm here in cyprus. cyprus is one of the countries who has to pay out almost two years ago and still in the program there. they're still rated noninvestment rate. they have huge problems also with the banking sector. looking at the banking sector, it's an astonishing figure. 50% nonperforming low. they're still sitting on in that country. and prior to the morning, i have to say i spoke to the finance minister here on the ground and i asked hi

annette, let's start with you, we knew this would be a game of chicken and both sides are staking their positions already. >> reporter: it's just the beginning of the game of chicken i have to say. it will probably roll out during the whole of february until the end of february when the bailout officially ends for greece. greece of course wants to have a hair cut. euro zone enders which are also the creditors to the nation including the ecb don't want to have a hair cut on the existing debt. they actually could think about is debt restructuring when it comes to duration or longer duration for loans, lower interest rate but also when it comes to this kind of debt restructuring, here in brussels people are saying there's not a lot of room for improvement looking at what greece is already paying in terms of average interest rates there right now at 2.4% according to calculations from the german finance ministry. when it comes to the security or the debt average profile maturity it's longer than euro zone states. it's not the great deal they could do when it comes to longer duration or long

greater reliance on intelligence capabilities and focus targeted enforcement against individuals annette works responsible for a majority of the crime in a given area. instead of reactively plugging holes in the border, our planners started looking for best ways to work with inner agency partners to combat the greatest risk to border security, national security and public safety. while the 2012-2016 border patrol strategic plan provided a blueprint for the border patrol to effectively transition to more comprehensive and assessment planning approach it was a statement made in 2010 during a hearing before the house subcommittee on homeland security which paved the way for creation and adaptation of the new approach. it was a tipping point of sorts and throughout our history i'm sure we'll look back at that point as a point which it started to change for us. during the hearing border patrol leaders testified that u.s. border patrol spent $3.5 billion on border security between the ports of entry alone yet controlled only 3%. now to give you a perspective of what that would have looked like

. >> i just want to pick up on something that annette said before. that was that the silent majority is finding his voice. as you look at these pictures of world leaders arm in arm, do you think this is going to change something? is there potential for some good coming out of this? >> excellent question. personally, i think there is going to be a lot of trouble for the next two weeks. we are already seeing less in the divisiveness of the french political community, with everything that has been going on with the popular front, and how marie le pen, depending on how you look at it has been trying to exploit the situation or is being exploited. we do not know what is going to happen. >> the leadermarie le pen says that she was not invited to this rally. therefore, they will not focus on this rally. >> actually, earlier, i said earlier onfrance 24 -- on france 24 that it was crazy not to invite her. it is difficult to know exactly why that happened over the last couple of days. but that is what i feel may happen in the very near future. today, we have m
