debbie #1: hi, i'm debbie. i'm dino's wife. lemonis: hi, debbie. how are you?2: i'm also debbie. i'm dino and debbie's daughter. lemonis: how are you? so, three family members. debbie #2: well, ray is actually my husband. ray: i am family. lemonis: and so all four of you work here? dino: always me, ray or debbie are here all the time. lemonis: okay, that's a good thing. so, dino... dino: yes, sir? lemonis: ...was this your idea? dino: yes. i worked in a pizza place called mango's, and there was a mcdonald's, and i'm watching cars go through the drive-through. i got the idea of drive-through pizza by the slice because nobody had done it. so i was going to revolutionize and pioneer the way people eat fast food. why is pizza the most popular food on the planet and you can't get it in a drive-through? lemonis: any time i find somebody with a concept that is different than anything else i've ever seen, the risks are that consumers don't adopt the idea of driving through and getting a slice of pizza and eating it in their car. the rewards are, if you're first to mark

what struck me about debby -- >> finish. what struck you about debby was what? -- i use the word guileless. he was not the kind of person -- it wouldn't occur to her to make things up or to lie. you know, she was an open and honest person. >> but she never told you when you were in college that this happened, correct? >> you know, i have been thinking about this a lot. and my response was i have a vague memory of something happening. i have a vague memory of debby coming into my room, of being very upset, but i don't have a specific enough memory to testify to this. so i can say i know her. i can say i know him. i can't say for sure that i remember this incident. >> you talked two weeks ago, after this story -- it was when this story came to light after the professor ford story came to light. you didn't speak on camera until you spoke to anderson last night and now you are talking to us now, the morning that the senate actually has the fbi report. do you wish you had come one sooner? >> boy, that's -- i guess the answer is i do. i think that she's being treated

the office of congresswoman debby wasserman schultz in sun ris sunrise, florida, and a bomb that was sent outside of westchester, new york, a suspicious package arriving at the home of george soros. and art broderick, how confident are you, as a former law enforcement official that they will find out who did this? i mean some of these crimes go unsolved. >> some of them do, and we all remember how long it took to catch someone like the una disease bomber. >> we have come a long way since the days of the unabomber, based on the forensics that they get from these particular bombs is going to be key. and this whole situation of offsite scanning of mail coming into federal facilities and also governmental buildings started during the anthrax scare after 9/11. so the government established these continuation plans and part of the main ones was the offsite sorting of the mail so it wouldn't interrupt the governmental office buildings. and we saw the time-warner building completely shut down. >> and it's the home of not just cnn, but tnt and turner and tbs and a lot of wealthy people have c

and -- >> debby ramirez. >> debby ramirez. and i know from my experience with her that at least from my perspective, there is zero chance that she's making up this story and i heard dr. befolasey ford's toaestimony. i believe she's telling the truth. when brett started saying things about this drihis drinking and certain words, sexually-oriented words. i knew he was lying because he was my roommate. you know, we were in a room together. in speaking out about it. >> of the time. >> since this is knowledge you say you specifically have, can you describe what you mean when you say he was a notably heavy drinker? >> sure. this is a time not long after "animal house" was shown, and people drank a lot. he went to parties and drank beer. many, many people did. but there were even within that environment, there were people who were loud drunks, who were sloppy drunks, who were belligerent drunks, but even by those standards, my memory of brett was that he was -- he was on the far edge of this. he was notably heavier in his drinking th

some pictures coming from outside debbie wasserman-schultz's office. this is, you know -- doesn't give you a lot. that's where it is. you can imagine tensions are high. there's great news within this. nobody has been hurt. sometimes with these crude devices, officials tell us, the thing you're most afraid of, in transition somebody will handle that thing and explode in their hands in a mail facility somewhere, in the back of a truck somewhere an assistant or a mail sorting personnel. that didn't happen in any cases. doesn't mean that the devices were so sophisticated that they wouldn't go off in transit? the early suggestion is no. were they such that they might not have detonated under any circumstances? we'll have to wait on that. on all of the addressees, regular target of the political right. that tells us nothing about the sender. just one of the facts that is long the way. phil keating is there on scene in sunrise, florida. phil, the word is, they believe there's a second suspicious package there. is that right? >> yes, the city of aventura in da

that's a couple things on representative debbie wasserman schultz. you can see the reporting here. >> melissa: okay. i think we have chris with us right now. chris, obviously, we are looking at now four confirm devices. what is your thought on the pattern, here? are you with us? it seems like we lost chris. if you want to move back to capitol hill, as we talk about the congresswoman debbie wasserman schultz. mitch mcconnell, the majority leader, has also released a statement condemning the act saying that they are attempted acts of domestic terrorism. he says "we continue to learn more, americans are united in gratitude for the first responders, the secret service, the postal service, and other law enforcement that protect leaders from such unconscionable acts." the majority leader who is now on capitol hill -- not now, but he obviously has a huge role there. he is watching this closely as we have seen over the past week weeks. some of these coming in. >> harris: i was just showing this, we were reading this together. the sun sentinel. suspicious pac

one of the offices of debbie wasserman-schultz.wo letters or suspected bomb packages were delivered. one was actually returned and meant for eric holder but incorrect addressing had it go back to her as a returned a dressee. joining me to discuss this, judge andrew napolitano. the first question, of course, how do you deter this from a legal point of view? if there's a person or persons and they're apprehended, what would they be looking at in terms of penalties? this seems to go intrastate, former presidents are involved, active terrorism. there seems to be a lot here. >> the short answer is, if nobody dies and nobody has, life in prison. if anyone dies, even someone fleeing what they think is a bomb, even if it's not a bomb, the president that sent it still could be executed. we don't know what was sent. we don't know what was in the packages. we don't know if it was talcum powder or a toxic substance. we don't know if they were bombs of capable of being detonated. a lot of this will rise or fall on the facts. we also don't know

she is a mutual friend of debbie ramirez and brett kavanaugh who knew them from yale law school. of a series of text messages she says she has not drawn any conclusions about, but that suggest that they definitely need to investigate further, what was going on in the lead-up to this new yorker piece exposing debbie ramirez's story. specifically, she wanted to get out these texts that showed that kavanaugh may have been trying to discredit debbie ramirez in the run-up to "the new yorker" story, even though he told the senate judiciary committee he wasn't aware of "the new yorker" story until it ran. so that needs to be looked into. whether he was pushing other classmates who were part of this tight knit circle that includes debbie ramirez and the lady that crafted her memo, he is 51 years old, former classmate who has been concerned for quite a while, trying to bring this information forward. the white house says this is normal. that kavanaugh would the this in the run-up to this story, that it's "pr 101," but we talked with experts who have been through this confirmation process

the office of former dnc chair, debbie wasserman schultz. also received a device. former president bill clinton is at home, but hillary clinton is not. she is dimmick >> we have to do everything we can to bring our country together. >> reporter: nyp nvesti a susous e on envelope that contained white powder sent to the time warner center in new york , that forced the evacuation of cnn. >> bomb squad responded, secured the device every motive for investigation. >> reporter: and sarah huckabee sanders condemned the incidents "these terrorizing acts are despicable, and anyone responsible will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law "two of the intercepted packages included pipes, wires and black powder. hillary lane, kpix 5. >> our security analyst tells us why the democratic party appears to be targeted. >> this antigovernment. it doesn't mean to me that it is antidemocrati it tells me that these people are focused on the establishment. the governmental establishment, not necessarily a particular party. i may be a piece of it. more than anything it's anti

and two, to get her to go on the record, karen, to go on the record to refute debby's story. of course karen never did that. she was an anonymous source refuting the story. but still, my source, kerry thinks this needs to be looked into further in terms of what brett knew and what he was coordinating and trying to do behind the scenes to refute debby's story. and second that's troubling potentially and that is remember this is private correspondence between two friends. and kerry bercham says in that correspondence she was very troubled by his behavior ten years after that, she said debby wouldn't go near brett and his friends. that she clung to her, even though they were technically in a second peer group, and yet she wouldn't go anywhere near them. and she said in her memo outlining all of this, that it all makes sense to me now. >> and heidi, in your reporting these are texts from friends of brett, and these were sternly indicating there was direct contact with brett himself about debby ramirez before "the new yorker" article came out and what brett was looking for was som

i think that debbie should go to the u.n. she is the ultimate diplomat making people from -- not only across the united states but across the world who came to san francisco welcome the way she extends programs. really and truly brought the world to the commission office and department offices. thank you for all that. it was a beautiful event. kudos to everybody who worked on that. it was wonderful. >> the newest commissioner will chime in. i didn't get to make it to all the events. the one that really stands out in my mind was the reception at the department had. i came early and i stayed late. it was an opportunity for me to talk to a lot of members of the department at every level that are doing so much great work. everyone was excited about that week. the thing that really stood out to me was the incredible moral and enthusiasm of this department. it real see stands out. it really impressed me. i think it's what motivates everybody to do all the great work we're doing. you all are very enthuse attic anenthusiasticand it s

debbie wasserman schultz' office.his is similar to what law enforcement has been dealing with in the last three days, and this is serious. this is what law enforcement was concerned about, and here we are, another situation which obviously has everybody concerned, parts of lower manhattan now closed because of this. >> a similar reaction, bomb squad, containment vessel, and similarities between the packages that have been sent prior. we won't know the full details until they open it up, right? we are talking about the exterior similarities and they are treating it as an equally dangerous device, and other public officials have received. >> there's a serial bomber on the loose, and this is what police are contending with, and there's domestic terrorism before our eyes, and i can only imagine the net owe tpeurpffici having to cast. >> the fbi is on this, and these devices are being disassembles and looking at down at quantico. the things that makes package bombs like this so unnerving is bombs are not precision weapons,

that they are able to look at debbie wassermann schultz' records and look at maybe some of the people who were a threat in the past, and is that a lead. are you seeing it as we start to get an idea of some of the thing th things that are happening inside of the investigation that it is moving ahead about at the pace, and about where you thought that it would? >> yeah, it is moving fast. florida is a big state. and you know, i was a florida cop, and it is a big state. where the post office is may not be in south florida, but central or north florida. debbie wassermann schultz's name was on the packages and so that the recipients would open the package and this is why her name was on that, and that is why the bombers do that, they put the returned a dress of someone that you know. and actually, it was a good selection because except for mr. brennan, everybody else probably does know debbie wassermann schultz, and so that is a clever tactic to get the recipient to open the bomb. >> and jim cavenaugh and jonathan dienst, thank you. >>> and also, can you know who is listening in on the pre

home as well, and investigators confirm it has been sent there, and now we are also informed that debbie wassermann schultz' office is evacuated as well in sunrise, florida. and now we go to andrea mitchell. >>> we continue the breaking coverage of suspicious packages sent to the chappaqua home of bill and hillary clinton and the washington, d.c., home of barack and michelle obama, and the packages to the clintons and the obamas were flagged in routine screenings before they reached oo either home. in new york, the law enforcement and the first responders are responding to the the evacuation of cnn headquarters in time warner headquarters in manhattan. cnn reports that pipe wires were hanging out of it, and this is one day after investigators found an explosive device at the billionaire philanthropist, and long time democratic contributor george soros who has been the victim of right wing conspiracy opponents. and now in sunrise, florida, responding to the t fog ing to congresswoman debbie wassermann schultz' local office. the law enforcement says that the returned a dress for the soros,

those are the offices of congresswoman debbie wasserman schultz. that office has also been evacuated as investigators, police on the scene there investigating a suspicious package as well. clint watts is still with me. we just saw that picture from pete williams, the bomb itself. i don't know if we have that, if we can bring it back up on the screen. we're going to bring that picture back up, clint. we were talking about what the device itself might tell us about the person or people behind the bomb. you see that device, and you think what? >> i want to know if it actually works. i think that's the key component to all of this, at least at this time, and i'm sure the nypd teams are going to do a great job and the fbi crime labs, i'm sure will help out the smaller agencies in figuring out does this device actually detonate. is it capable. one of the key things you look for in the investigation moving in reverse now is there any sort of testing of the device's bomb maker to make sure -- caused some sort of harm. looking at it, it's very hard to tell.

that was months in advance of when the story about debbie came out. one part, for instance, that's really telling is that days after christine blasey ford contacted "the washington post" anonymously, she was an anonymous tipper at that point, days after that the eyewitnesses who were identified by debbie ramirez were trying to get a photograph of debbie and them and to send it to the post. what was that about? these are questions, they're merely questions, the women make clear they're not drawing any conclusions, but they're questions that were never asked, never answered. >> all right, heidi przybyla, great reporting, eye opening, thank you very much. >>> bring in sherrilyn ifill and nancy girtner, a retired federal court judge from the u.s. district of massachusetts. nancy, maybe i'll start with you because you had expressed a concern that was then echoed after the last time we spoke by justice -- former justice john paul stevens and others, retired federal judges who call themselves conservatives about the temperament on display from brett kavanaug

were coming to addresses in florida and, of course, the return address was this a misspelling of debbie wasserman schultz. a member, the device sent to former attorney general eric holder field to be delivered because the address was not correct or it just wasn't the right address for him. so we went back to congresswoman debbie wasserman schultz's office, and that's when it was -- we thought we had to packages, but in fact, there was one. on this point, of florida, we talked a bit about forensic profiling based on the evidence and individual. there is also some may call geographic profiling. i was talking about last hour. when you have different data points, so you know how many packages you have. you know geographically how they spread across united states. you also know the timing of when they have been discovered, and you can look back in some cases to when they were processed through postal facilities. you can triangulate that information using algorithms, and you can start to see areas where the suspect or suspects were likely operating out of in order to get the packages to all t

well, now let's talk about debbie ramirez. she is there and during the freshman year of judge kavanaugh in yale, in the dorm, and he behaves in a totally inappropriate manner, according to her information that she relayed and information about excessive drinking followed by this individual, this nominee exposing himself to her and laughing about it. she provided a list of 20 individuals who have corroborating information about that experience, 20. so of course if the f.b.i. was going to reopen the background investigation and it was going to be an investigation with any form of integrity, any form of legitimacy, any form of fairness, the f.b.i. would be allowed to talk to those 20 people. but how many did the president allow in his scoping document the f.b.i. to talk to of those 20 people? none, zero. not a single one. that again is not fairness to the individual who came forward with their experience. now, why is it the president didn't want the f.b.i. to actually talk to these individuals? well, let's discuss one of them. on

chairwoman debbie wasserman shultz.the end, the package intended for former attorney general eric holder ended up at wasserman shultz's office after it was returned. the other targets, democratic congresswoman maxine waters of california, and billionaire george soros. >> the federal government is conducting an aggressive investigation and we will fine those responsible and we will bring them to justice. hopefully very quickly. (applause) any acts or threats of political violence are an attack on our democracy itself. no nation can succeed that tolerates violence or the threat of violence as a method of political intimidation, cooers or control-- coersion or control, there is one way to settle our agreements. it is called peacefully te ballot box. bat's what we want. >> nikki batiste has more on this now still developing story. >> a little >> reporter: a little after 10:00 a.m., chaos ripped midtown manhattan as news of a aospicious package sent to cnn's mailroom spread through the newsroom. ug folks, clear the block! >>

debbie wasserman-schultz.hat i find interesting, three of the packages arrived at their location as return addresses. put it in an unreachable address and they return to the people you really want to reach. it's great news. they did not explode. so the question is are you just being targeted to scare and to get attention and how do link all these packages together. joey jones is the expert. it seems they're going out of their way to make it seem similar. >> dana: indeed. also joey jones also saying you can tell a lot, you can get so much information from an unexploded device. you can find fingerprints. you can figure out maybe perhaps where the items were purchased and also where it was sent from. president of the united states saying that the full weight of the federal government, all the resources are being brought to bear on this, fbi, department of justice, u.s. secret service department of homeland security coordinating with all of these local governments and the police department. >> you know. you were i

it appears that one was labelled, what happened was, that was labelled as coming from debbie wasserman schultz, and the reason why it ended up back at her address is it was addressed as coming from her. the investigators believe she did not send this device to eric holder, so whoever sent it was trying to get this device back to debbie wasserman schultz because the address was not correct to eric holder. there's been five devices found, and you heard the governor in new york saying there was another package that was sent to his office there in new york, they haven't confirmed yet that that one is related, as you just mentioned a few minutes ago, wolf, they're still trying to go through the scene there at cnn because of some suspicious powder inside the package that's now been taken to a facility there in new york to see if they can get any clues. every piece of this device is a clue, they're going to try to retrieve frimpingerprints, they going to see what sort of printing was on the label there. the one that stands out is the soros device, because it appears that that was not sent thr

debbie wasserman schultz, one of the targets of a twisted plot..speaking out for the first time..ce the

roche says he believes her allegations. >> i believe debbie, because i can't imagine debbie lying. it's just not who she was at that time. and i don't think it's who she is now. >> but roche points out he never personally saw kavanaugh become violent. >> no, i never saw him hit anybody. i never saw himat a woman. i think that's important to say out loud. i don't know that he did or he didn't, but i never saw that. what i saw was a person who drank a lot and when he drank a lot he started to behave in a belligerent way. >> and check out this banner that was hanging on yerba buena island this morning. people driving into san francisco saw the large sign that said we believe survivors, an obvious reference to the kavanaugh controversy. the sign was removed a short time later. >>> now let's head to abc 7 newts reporter chris nguyen who is live in palo alto where community reaction is very strong. chris? >> well, people on both sides are pretty upset with how all this played out. but here in palo alto, regardless of whatever happens with the vote, supporters of dr. blasey ford says she

ainsley: president obama. >> debbie wasserman schultz.rian: you got to think they all went out at the same time; you think deniro in his restaurant probably came in yesterday. no one saw it no one delivers mail at 4:00 in the morning. we're probably going to have a busy day of this. >> >> if they did all go through the postal service. and there was question yesterday was there a stamp on the stamps identifying that it had actually gone through the mail. ainsley: there is not. if you look at this picture of the package in the newspapers. >> you see stamp from the postal service. that's the question. given the timing and proximity. one could say new york. then you look at the florida situation. it seems to be broader than that again, i think the post office is has been exceptional in its ability to track this information and be able to recreate where specifically it was dropped off. like, in our neck of the woods, in utah, you could drop it off at your local supermarket. it has a little -- but, again, there is going to be surveillance video
