this was addressed to cory booker. this is a live look from new york city right now where there are reports of another suspicious package near a postal facility. this is is in the hell's kitchen area of midtown manhattan. the nypd has sealed off the area. sources tell cbs news some of the suspicious packages were processed at a postal facility in opa locka florida. prominent democrats were targeted including former president obama and vice president joe biden. the fbi says the devices appear to be pipe bombs, all of the packages had a return address of florida congresswoman debbie wasserman shultz. >> the last couple of days have been trying for many of us to say the least. um, as we know, there will always be those who use distractions, threats and even violence to accomplish their ends. >> none of the devices detonated. investigators are still trying to determine whether they are fake. there was a brief scare at the building that houses the l.a. offices of senator dianne feinstein. police were called in to examine a

corey booker, where is he giving in a speech? in south carolina. is he in south carolina?s helping congressional democrats who are wanting to -- challengers to republicans, they want to win. that's not happening in south carolina. unlike lindsay gray mam, for example, going out on a 12-state tour after kavanaugh so he can do all those things. president trump said his closing argument is going to be kavanaugh, the caravan, law and order and common sense. 2 1/2 weeks until the election in this news cycle is risky, by saturday we could have a new closing argument, if you think about it, kavanaugh was just two weeks ago. but the democrats are bailing out of three important races today. down in texas 23rd, will herd, that was a district that hillary clinton won but he's pulling ahead, democrats are going to take money out of that, put schmidt where else. also in nebraska 2 and minnesota 8. places where the democrats think they have pickups, those are out of reach for them. possibly, of course it depends on turnout. if they aren't going to put money in it shows something. the de

you look at corey booker the way he talked and then you look at what he did.ook at senator dianne feinstein, what she did. >> what's this -- the way heville annizes people, feinstein is a grown up democrat, been around a long time, used to be mayor of san francisco, people in california who were republicans respected her. this crowd is going -- they don't even know feinstein, why are they joining in the jeering here? why are they led along like lemmings? they don't know who dianne feinstein is. >> they know they saw trump the night before leading a rally of lock erup. >> leaking, some lawyer she may have had leaked. >> they make it sound like corey booker and dianne feinstein broke into kavanaugh's house and beat up his family. >> i'm not suggesting that he did it intentionally, but the first place i go when he named corey booker -- >> is african american. >> correct. >> that's exactly why he did it. >> that's where he wants to go in the rallies. what's he doing in pennsylvania? he's costing seats for republicans. >> they're not going to win the governorship i

billionaire donor tom steyer, california senator kamala harris, new jersey senator cory booker and. we have bill daly, former deputy assistant director of counterterrorism division, terry turchie. first of all, bill, we have to give a shoutout to law enforcement t happened quickly. they are in the eye of the storm of a lot of public criticism. we say thank you, thank you. do you think this is over? there was perhaps searching out or more potential suspects? >> well, certainly we don't know if any people are complicit knowingly or unknowingly in the plot. there could be other scenes that need to be investigated. as much as we have seen van being taken away by the fbi for processing t doesn't mean that his residence or maybe other locations where they fabricated these devices don't contain materials that are quite potentially harmful to individuals. so those are areas that need to be explored. the investigation is by no means

package number 11 addressed to cory booker. package 12 discovered in new york city addressed to james clapper. brian yenis is on the scene in new york city. where are you and what do you see? >> i'm on 52nd and 8th. the post office is actually behind me and to the left behind this hot dog vending. we see dozens of police officers, first responders, fire department officials. we're on 52nd and 8th. the post office is between 8th and 9th avenue. what we know so far a bomb containment vehicle has made its way to the scene here. that is the same vehicle that moved the suspicious package from the cnn building a couple days ago to the rodman facility for the bomb squad. that's a protective concrete vehicle that will move the package and be sent to quantico. the suspicious package from our sources was addressed to james clapper. we also know from postal workers that were here that the package looked exactly like and resembled those packages we've seen throughout the week, the manila envelope, the six excessive postage stamps with the

this one addressed to corey booker, democrat from new jersey. that on your screen is new york.facility here in new york has been evacuated. you can hear the sirens there. there is concern about yet another package there, which would be the 12th. he's here with us now. tell us what you learned and also this key question, which is this could be the 11th and 12th package we know. but we don't know whether they were sent at the same time as all the others or whether this is a new wave. >> that's the important thing here, is that this could be packages that were just sitting in the facility and they were just found. it sounds like the one in florida, the 11th one the fbi is confirming in their tweet, you know, that sounds like something that had been there and they were searching and found it. it doesn't sound like that just came in. this is interesting, the new york city one, because the postal inspector today said they had searched some of these sorting facilities yesterday and they had not found anything suspicious. so it could be maybe that they didn't fully search this one and

booker may be trying to build a similar coalition. host: there is a story in the "new jersey -- there is a story in the "new york times" about new jersey. guest: menendez, because of ethical issues, should be toasting. but ultimately, when you have a blue wave in a democratic state like new jersey, it is hard to see how menendez does not win another term. the environment is so good. there are at least three house races in new jersey that democrats are likely to pick up. that is an environment that will help menendez win another term. host: democrat line, ohio. caller: i wondered if climate change will be a big issue in any of these races? guest: it is a question a lot of liberal activists want to care about, but it is not coming up in democratic campaigns, for the most part. if you look at the messaging on the airwaves, democrats are talking about health care. they are not talking about the environment, not talking about climate change. while that issue energizes base voters and younger democratic voters, you are not seeing it as a hu

can you tell us more about the apparent targets of these devices the new jersey senate to cory booker for maintenance chief james kopp a do they fit the pattern we've seen so far. well james clapper was director of national intelligence under obama and has been a very outspoken trump critic especially in regards to russia and the allegations of russian meddling in the u.s. elections as trump is trying to push his view that this is all just a witch hunt and that there's nothing to this russian meddling story clapper has been on the other side of that and we can see why clapper would have drawn the president's ire new jersey senator cory booker has been a leading progressive voice in the past several years we saw him be a very strong force of opposition against the nomination of brett kavanaugh to the supreme court and he is also considered a front runner for a twenty twenty democratic presidential nomination so again another high profile democratic figure very much consistent with the other people who've been targeted in recent days. very quickly if you can has this story sort of chang
