obama says president obama says the republicans just say no even if it's a good plan i mean elizabeth senator elizabeth warren's bill very clear either stand with the billionaires or you stand with students and i think republicans are making their choice and where do you think senator warren's bill is going to be because going to do unfortunately i think because of what we're just talking about i don't think it has the best chances but i think that there is still time i think everyone needs to call their senator and tell them to vote for this vote my colleague said you know tell your parents to call their senator tell your best friend tell your mom and tell everyone you know so at least we know we did everything we could to get this bill passed senator warren's think on being on students refinancing act is one of the most comprehensive student loan bills we've seen so far and it's and it basically allows people to completely remove sensually at a much much lower rate we better terms right receive people what eight twelve percent they could refinance that's a four percent the government's loaning money

elizabeth harris, you are next. >> elizabeth harris here? >> okay. >> all right, we will move on, kerri shinder? >> next is amira tuby. >> much of what i had planned to say has been said, and i am grateful to project what and to the public defenders and others for their statistics. what i would like to share with you very briefly is three sentences about my background, first of all i work inside california state prisons as a volunteer facilitator as the alternative to the violence project which is internationally known for reducing recidivism and one of the things that they speak of is their pain in being separated from their children. some of whose children are now in their 20s or 30s. i also work on the outside with children of incarcerated parents and as a person who has worked as a resource teacher both at the elementary school level and also in the community college level, i see, the ripple effect of what happens when families are split. and so that is part of my background. and because of time, there are several things that i am asking you people to take a look at. one is, if you have not read the book, beyond prisons, that you pick that up. that is a very clear and wonderfully written piece about what happened in the disparity, the racial disparity in this country and why. the second thing is to please not vote for more prisons. more, jails expenditures, we need more programs, like project what, we do not need more prison beds. i am going to call up the entire project team, i understand that you have one speaker speaking on your behalf? >> come on up to the front. i am just going to call into the record the names of the project what people that are standing in support of the speaker, we have amira, daniel yam and maria, and lala jana and alex and desere, and jessica. >> you may daniel. and allow me to speak on extent for the entire project. >> i am 19 years old, and i have been part of the project since the summer of 2013, i described your high school and the school of the university of pennsylvania in the fall. my dad is living under the political asigh lum in the united states he was arrested in china for corruption charges and due to the special identity and later he was deported to the united states for have aggressive political attitude in 2010. i came here to enjoin him in 2013, there is no doubt that i love the united states as a nation and a soccer team, but, because this is the united states that who accepted me, and my father when his only country did not welcome there, but the prison system here sometimes makes me doubt the reason why i chose here over staying in china for a less liber ated and yet a less chaotic life. >> what i want you to know about children with incarcerated parents is that we are a group of children who seem to be aware, but actually we are around you every day, we were born with a pair of parents and so were we, your childhood was filed with the joyful memories of your parents, but ours were not. >> you love your parents and want them to be around you all of the time and so do we, you feel like you can't live without either one of your parents but we have to, look into your heart and stand up and try your best to support the children with incarcerated parents we deserve your help because we are the future of the united states of america. >> great. >> thank you. >> thank you very much. >> all right let's see we have another group of folks that we are going to call together, community works, one family? >> speaking as a group? >> yeah. >> so i understand community works, you are going to come together and do you have one speaker. >> all right. >> i would like to just for the record call in, or name the folks who are going to be standing, ruth morgan, sarah carson, nadia sharif, eric rice, william ray, and >> the run the one family program in the san francisco jails and it provides, parenting classes, and supervisor vices all of the visits all of them and we provide the support services for the parents who have open cases cps cases and behind me is my staff, who teaches the classes and offers the support and we also provide therapy for families. i have a waiting list that is 8 months long for them to have a therapist to sit with them and all of our classes have waiting lists and i would like to be able to double my staff and be able to have much more visiting happening between the children and their parents, these are contact visits and they are supervised and supported by the social workers and i want to take the time to talk about the out in the community work she does. >> one of the programs that i over see is roots, and as from the dcf had mentioned it is the first school based program for the youth that are impacted by having a parent incarcerated in san francisco. >> the students who put on a play in the community, and i discovered that i was affected by incarceration and i discussed my main to take it away and i learned that the criminal justice system is messed up. >> i urge you to support that small amount of money that will make a difference. >> the last four comment cards that i have elizabeth harris, are you back? >> okay. >> and i see, is it, tenan. >> okay. >> and thank you. >> and brian, and then, i don't know what this is. >> and something martin? >> ralph or raymond? >> good afternoon, thank you supervisors, for holding this important hearing. first i would just want to say that it is unfortunate that you know the first three hearings, the first three items today were given so much time and this one had to be cut short. but thank you for holding this hearing, my name is tom and i am with the californians united for the responsible budget a state wide coalition for 65 organizations reducing the number of people in prison and in jails and the number of prison and jails in california. as we have the discussion of the needs of the youth with the current or formally incarcerated parents and the possibility of a replacement jail, at 850 brian street and we are going to keep a few things in mind. often, the parents of the children who are in prison, and the rates of custody

elizabeth warren with elizabeth warren masks on. hillary's nightmare is the caption. the framing of how potential these candidates t s are to corporations. so if the country in this strings of decisions and pieces of legislation starts to fatigue of corporations being granted all of these rights, do you think, karen, they could turn to more populist, more anti-wall street candidates? >> you may see more populist ideas, certainly if there were to be a primary and that's if both of these women were to run and there was a primary. i think you'd see that become an issue. but again, i don't see that as something that would be a problem necessarily for secretary clinton because, ag e again, the issue becomes, what people care about, how is that going to affect me and my life. if we're saying in terms of the corporations, in terms hough would that impact you and your life when talking about this decision, it's different than some of the other instances. so i think it may end up being a conversation that moves a little bit to the left in the context of a democratic primary. if we were to have one. ultimately, i think that's the kind of thing that will weigh in the benefit of democrats. >> and robert, could this be something that republican candidates tap into? that frustration with corporations being afforded too much leeway in the eyes of the law? the republican party was once supposed to be the populist platform. can they get back to that and tap into some of these frustrations? >> absolutely. look. i think karen is on to something here. it's not -- look. corporations are not people. corporations are things and oftentimes they are very big things with one interest. and that is to push their product, whatever their product is. the question becomes whether or not the average voter out there feels as though they are being one upped. if, in fact, they feel that the game is rigged against them and feel as though perhaps a corporation or some type of organization is gaming the system. there's nothing wrong with corporations. that's part of our capitalist society. the question becomes whether or not people are being taken advantage of in an undue way, ronald reagan, elizabeth warren, bill clinton, they've tapped into that over the years. >> thank you both of you. it's a contentious issue. we'll have much more discussion of this all through the week. i'll sure we'll see your shining faces again. >>> just ahead today, facebook getting all up in our stuff, mess with our news feeds. what's up with that? we'll talk about bad idea, bro, after the break. i'm randy and i quit smoking with chantix. for 33 years i chose to keep smoking... ...because it was easier to smoke than it was to quit. along with support, chantix (varenicline) is proven to help people quit smoking. it's a non-nicotine pill. chantix reduced the urge for me to smoke. it actually caught me by surprise. some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood, hostility, agitation, depressed mood and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping chantix. if you notice any of these, stop chantix and call your doctor right away. tell your doctor about any history of mental health problem

elizabeth sorano. jessica and elizabeth worked for mario. >> he was good con artist. >> it all started when she was 18, on her way to becoming a code breaker for the air force. she was about to be deployed, she says, when arrested for joy riding in a stolen car. as a result, the air force dropped her. >> i was already processed. just waiting to graduate high school. >> elizabethshe was sitting in jail when approached by another woman in the lockup. >> she said she had a friend that owned an escort service and she could get me in. >> out of money, desperate, elizabeth called the owner of the escort service mario davis. soon, she was turning tricks. >> i had a quota. you know, i had to make that quota. >> what was the quota for you. >> $1200 to $1500 a night. >> how much did you get to keep? >> none of it. >> she say she's tried to leave, but he wouldn't let her. >> he would be like, go pack your stuff and then if i actually did it, oh, he'd beat me severely. >> she escaped when mario took a trip out of town. >> he wasn't there to stop me. >> tons of evidence. >> detective boffman got the case and knew who he was looking for. the detective and the pimp went to high school together where mario was a star basketball player. did you ever imagine 20 years ago this basketball star, a year older than you, would become the target of one of your major investigations? >

elizabeth warren senator elizabeth warren is going to cold country or to schedule the campaign for democratic senatorial candidate natalie tenant on july fourteenth tenet is challenging republican congresswoman shelley moore capito i think it's in the capital that. thank you who holds about an eleven percentage point lead for the seat vacated by retiring senator jay rockefeller while tenet is a supporter of coal in the sense that he would run in west virginia she also supports stronger wall street reform measures senator warner has been pushing since she came to washington it seems that if people you know look at this it seems like of people can get past the issue of coal which is going to be damn hard in west virginia that populism is exploding in the united states and it's just this is the new. the tea party on the right elizabeth warren on the left this is the new force in american politics and it even causes me to wonder you know if if it's going to make it very difficult for establishment figures on the republican and democratic side like hillary clinton or jeb bush to even be successful in running for president i mean are we have such a populist moment that it's going to be elizabeth warren versus rand paul. what what is the role of populism right now to american politics if there was a poll done probably a week ago that talked about you know the gridlock in the fact that i think the questions were if you are a republican do you at least respect the arguments of democrats if you're a democrat do you least respect arguments republicans and a number of people that answer the question no was as you know an hour something or you're out of the thirty year are something i can't remember the exact figures and so i think that there is a very strong populism music movement we definitely know it on the right with the

elizabeth pran live in washington. so, elizabeth, secretary kerry's in the region. right on schedule, correct? tell us what's on his agenda? >> reporter: you're right. the secretary had a meeting today with president. take a listen. >> i think the first thing he needs to do -- to me, this is not just about iraq. this is about syria, this is about egypt, 9 entire middle east. what is our strategy? why do you send troops, what are they going to do? if you don't have an overall strategy? >> i do believe maliki has to go. it is absolutely essential that we stop isis from gaining a foot hold in iraq and syria. it's important that we do make air strikes, that the special operations are on the ground. >> what's on the agenda? experts say he will speak with the newly elected leader about the political transition. the nation's security and relationship with the u.s. you heard some lawmakers say there's a much broader goal. obviously after a visit to egypt, he'll then be heading to iraq. >> as the story keeps continuing to unfold rapidly, what's the latest reaction from the obama administration? >> reporter: as you know, they've captured three strategic towns, the first which shares a border crossing into syria. in a recent interview, president obama has repeatedly called for a more inclusive nation. that includes shiite, sunni and kurdish alike. >> what we can't do is think that that we're going to play whack a mole and send u.s. troops occupying various countries wherever these organizations pop up. we'll have to have a more focused, more targeted strategy and we're going to have to partner and train local law enforcement and military to do their jobs as well. >> reporter: the administration said they also want the secretary to speak with other allies about ceasing any financial support for isis. >> elizabeth, thanks a lot. >>> secretary kerry meeting with egypt's president and foreign minister today, all part of this push to seek an alternative to iraqi alternative to nuri al maliki. the counterpart discussed the growing crisis and the threat isis poses to the neighboring countries and to the whole region. >> the united states would like to see the iraqi people find leadership that is prepared to represent all of the people of iraq. that is prepared to be inclusive and share power in a way that will maximize the ability of iraq to focus on the real danger at this moment from an external source, which is isl. isl is a threat to all of the countries in the region. >> is that possible, or is it too late? john bolt n, former u.s. ambassador to the united states and fox news contributor. ambassador, the secretary of state expected to go to baghdad soon as part of this trip. if he does sit down with al maliki and tells him to quit, do you think he will listen, and more importantly, that this co

that is the very latest from here in cheltenham, elizabeth hur, cbs-3 "eyewitness news". >> elizabeth thank you very much. the rain is also delaying the start of a big construction project on interstate 95 in northeast philadelphia. penndot plans to rebuild a mile and a half stretch of northbound 95 between girard and al gain know avenues. that work was supposed to start tonight. but the rain has led to delay. cruise will start wednesday night instead. the project costs about $211 million. crews will repair existing lanes but they'll also add a fourth lane of travel one on each direction of 95. drivers should expect overnight lane closures and lots of slow downs. >> questions are being raised about when deldot knew that theism 495 bridge in will morning ton was tilting. today we obtained a 911 call from driver who says that he noticed the bridge seemed uneven. now that call was placed on april 15th but the bridge stayed open until last monday. charles allen, jr., says he drove across the 495 bridge every day for decades. here's a portion of his call. >> the bridge appears to be separa

elizabeth slatterly. elizabeth? [applause] >> thank you, john. tomorrow morning the senate judiciary committee will hold a hearing on a constitutional amendment that would give congress the power to regulate raising and spending of money in elections. supporters say amending the constitution is necessary to get so-called dark money out of politics and to stop billionaires like the koch brothers from allegedly buying elections. the supreme court has determined that bans on money are bans on speech. for anyone with experience in running campaigns, money is necessary to engage in effective political speech. today we have a panel of experts to talk about the proposed amendment. in order to get what they have to say, i will keep their introductions brief. first we will hear from bobby burchfield. bobby is an experienced trial and appellate lawyer with expertise in corporate litigation and first amendment litigation. he argued the challenge to the mccain-feingold law. he also argued on behalf of senate minority leader mitch mcconnell in a successful challenge to aggregate contribution limits in mccutcheon that was decided in april. bobby has argued cases, appearing in courts across the country. he is a graduate of wake forest university and the george washington university law school. where he was editor-in-chief of the law review. he clerked for a judge on the third circuit. next we will hear from donald -- the former chairman of the federal election commission. he led what has been called a revolution in campaign finance, rewriting virtually all of the procedures for audit and advisory opinions. he has worked in private practice, and today he is in a government regulation practice. he also served as general counsel of the national republican congressional committee for nearly 10 years. he has been featured in major papers and has appeared in national publications, including politico, roll call, the hill, and the washington examiner. he has addressed members of congress at house retreats regarding congressional ethics and appeared numerous times on television, including fox news and c-span. don is a graduate of notre dame. last but not least we will hear from a senior legal fellow at heritage. hans writes on a wide range of issues, including civil rights, the first amendment, and election integrity. he is known within heritage as the unofficial inspector general of the department of justice, having written articles about eric holder and various divisions at doj. his book "obama's enforcer" about the holder justice department comes out later this month. before joining heritage, he served as a member of the federal election commission and was counsel to the u.s. assistant attorney general for civil rights. he writes for politico and regularly appears on fox news as well as other national and regional outlets. he is a graduate of the massachusetts institute of technology. he received his jd from the vanderbilt university school of law. now i will turn it over to bobby. >> thank you, elizabeth. we are here today to declare victory. at long last the advocates of campaign finance restrictions are conceding that the restrictions on campaign speech they want simply cannot be squared with the first amendment. although there is no chance that the proposed constitutional amendment will be approved and ratified, defenders of free and robust political debate should not let the significance of this moment pass. the self-styled reform community has conceded their restrictions cannot be squared with the first amendment. victory. i wish it were so. this afternoon i would like to make three basic points. first, the mccutcheon decision is plainly correct. as you know, the campaign-finance regime contains two types of contribution limits. base limits impose a dollar cap on the amount of money a contributor may give to a candidate per election or political committee per year. congress has determined that the non-corrupting amount an individual may give to a federal candidate is $2600 per el

elizabeth fraser. anybody ever heard of susan elizabeth fraser? i'm sure that dr.patterson knows the first black woman to teach in an integrated school in new york city, black teachers have to teach in all black schools everywhere to teach but it didn't teach an integrated or in white schools. there was a lengthy court battle for her to achieve this remarkable stature. that was in 1895. she was the president of the women's auxiliary. mc along coed these women's clubs was the vice president, and charles fillmore's wife, marie, was the secretary. his daughter was also in the 15th women's auxiliary. so what did they do? they helped families of the men with finances, but with supplies, with food. they helped the men. name. you wouldn't believe what the men in the regiment didn't have. we would think this would be offered, issued by the military. it wasn't. you know, toothbrushes, columns, et cetera, all these things the women's auxiliary provided. but something else, too. that's on the protest march of 1917. and the women were very important in the organization. we alw

elizabeth warren. elizabeth warren who's giving the populist wing of the democratic party reason to hope by not outright rejecting speculation of a future presidential bid. during a discussion with french economist thomas pikety, the huffington post ryan grim quoted a passage from warren's new book in which she says, quote, this. fiercely, she is fiercely determined to do everything i can to help us once again be the america that creates opportunities for anyone who works hard and plays by the rules. grim then suggested there was something warren could do, alluding to a run for higher office. and here is how she spoend. -- responded. >> we're talking about economics, we're talking about power, but we're also talking about values. this is a moment in time for our country and i believe for our world, a moment in time when we decide who we are as a people and what kind of a future we are going to build. here in america, we the people get to decide what the rules are. so i get how hard this is. this is about concentrated money and power on one side, but it's about our values, our voices and our votes on our side. i believe we can fight back. i believe we can win. i believe it. >> does anyone think that she was saying more than what she was saying? i do. >> absolutely not. >> oh, come on. >> oh, mika, i'm going to disappoint all of us. we want a race, we want a contest, go, lizzie, go. the democratic sisterhood is so invested in hillary clinton that no woman is going to run against hillary clinton, including elizabeth she would be formidable. >> did you think barack obama was going to run? >> absolutely i did not. >> thank you for your honesty. thank you for sharing. >> it's not that i think that hillary can't be beaten. i doubt she can, but it's that i think she has a certain hold that didn't exist eight years ago. >> hold on the media and on people? >> and on the democratic party. she'll drive -- she'll drive hillary to the left. >>> still ahead, his state draws more than 95% of its power from coal, making the president's new emission standards an issue that hits very close to home. senator joe manchin joins us in just a bit. >>> and then actor morgan freeman takes us through the worm hole. what we'll get in the new season of his science channel series. >>> and up next, is stephen colbert the most effective man in news? the numbers seem to say yes to that. >>> first, here is bill karins, the most effective man in weather with the forecast. >> that was too easy, mika. >>> good morning, everyone, l

i would say with the refinancing bill that elizabeth warren, senator elizabeth warren is proposing, itrates for which we are paying interest and it would help ease the transitioning towards becoming a participant in the economy. >> we should say previously the rate for undergraduate loans had been a fixed 6.8%. those who didn't come under that 3.8%, it would be retro being an tim, right? >> well, there's lots of different proposals for borrowers to refinance their loans. unlike mortgage borrowers, student loan borrowers tend to have few options to refinance those loans. we're seeing that 40 million americans owe about $1.2 trillion in debt. this can have a broader impact on the economy, from first-time home purchases to small business starts to saving for retirement. and we need to take steps to make sure we stop this potential student debt domino effect. there are so many americans who are in the prime age to be investing for future but they're really being drag down by a lot of there. brittany, what's your story? where are you standing right now? >> i actually graduated from virginia

and there was a little bit of that with elizabeth warren, but nobody looks at elizabeth warren and seesslay the giant or the dragon. >> let's be honest, it is hers if she runs. >> like if she is the only man or woman out there, the only person out there now so is she in danger of too much exposure. is this too much of a rollout now? >> she is running against herself. and how she handles these next two years is very much about tone. it is very much about whether she can win over enough independent voters to be comfortable with her as a person, as a leader. i don't think it is just about issues. as they say, she has the country on the issues. the demographics show it. but she has got to get people comfortable with her. they're comfortable and have been for a long time, i think with her husband. but not so much with her. and that is what this theater is all about. and she has got a production going on with a cast of thousands. everybody taking notes and giving them to her at the end of each day's performance. we've never seen anything like this. and we have to look at her and this campaign

elizabeth warren. well good old elizabeth warren we've got some activists out there pushing but you know the statute of limitations is running out so people better start expressing their outrage to congress and to the white house right away while we still have a sliver of times in terms of the statue of limitations on the bank frauds back in two thousand and eight that crashed our economy right yeah right but of course they keep breaking the law so i guess we'll have more opportunities by yes yeah however that was a mind boggling multi-trillion dollar that's incredible richard esque out it's always great to see you my friend thanks for dropping by today absolutely thank you . for that out of a very very turban ugly. really there good it's rate of annan who will during an appearance on a.b.c.'s this week with george stephanopoulos yesterday the nation editor called out iraq war cheerleader in chief chickenhawk bill kristol in the best possible way. architects of a catastrophe that have cost this country trillions of dollars thousands of lives there should be accountability we should not if there are no

elizabeth arden is falling into the red. liz: let's head back to nicole petallides on the floor of the new york stock exchange. nicole. >> liz and dave, we've seen elizabeth arden's stock pop about 30% from the time there was talk that a south korean company in the same sort of business, number two in that area, was considering a takeover of elizabethll since then south korea's lg household and health care company said it is no longer interested in acquiring elizabeth arden. with that, the stock dropped dramatically. it was down 17% at the closing bell. it closed at 22.41. so giving back much of the recent gains. l-f household meantime said it would continue to look for other opportunities. other opportunities that actually provide them an offer them better value. so for whatever reason when they looked into elizabeth arden they didn't feel that was the company for them. meantime we're really saw that the stock dropped and elizabeth arden now says they will be doing lots of restructuring. david: thanks, nicole. good to see ya. liz: s&p futures are about to close. let's head back to dan stesich in the pits of the cme. dan? >> no surprises here. we haven't done something since then. next week is big week. ism, employment, auto sales. keep an eye on the economy. >> okay. thank you very much. dan stesich. >> thank you. david: things ar

elizabeth warren. >>> a dose of elizabeth warren wouldn't be band look at hill, dead broke, $8 million book advance. >> robert, we're now told that there will be an election in the house of representatives for the next majority leader on june 19th. that's coming up not too far away. who's going to be elected. >> i've been spending all day here determining who's going to run for majority leader who will serve alongside john boehner. jebhensarling, pete sessions, it's unlikely they'll both run grens each other but conservatives think in the wake of cantor's defeat they can rise. majority whip, kevin mccarthy, he thinks he's the successor to cantor, the pick of the establish ment in the house, he thinks he will be able to easily rise. >> what kind of message does this defeat by eric cantor send to the speaker of the house, john boehner? >> i think it sends a message to him that compromise is frankly a dirty word for his candidates facing primaries. i found it interesting that eric cantor presented himself in a very consolatory fashion a couple of moments ago on cnn, which is at odds with my recollection of wait in which he handled himself in the administration with budget negotiations. interesting to me, that he looks at his own record of one of conciliation. people will say, compromise remains the new "c" word in washington. >> you write on cnn.com the reasons the gop succeeds as a congressional party are very much the reasons it fails on the presidential level. base politics works in gop primaries to be sure. also works in congressional races that have been gerrymandered and tailored to partisan voter but was it's a lousy strategy if you want to win the presidency. >> if you want to win the presidency you have to find independent voters, voters in the middle. you know, as michael was just saying, you know if compromise is a dirty word, then you may win some congressional seats but it's difficult to figure out a way to get to the presidency. if you can't figure out anything to do on immigration reform, for example, then that's going to hurt you with a big bloc of voters that's growing larger. >> i want to read to you what the president said back in 2012, just before he was re-elected thought it was an off the record meeting, it was later put on the record. should i win a second term, this is the president, a big reason i will win a second term because the republican nominee and the republican party have so alienated the fastest growing demographic group in the country, the latino community. >> well, that was mitt romney, not a favorite of the tea party. george allen, the republican senate nominee lost badly in virginia. >> is that going alienate latino community from the republican party? >> no. i think republicans can do a better job with latinos but signing on to a big government schumer/mccain immigration reform new york evidence. >> what about doing what eric cantor recommended, let the so-called dreamers -- >> how that is working out in arizona right now? 90,000 young people between -- across the border because, in fact, there's not border security, despite proclamations, border security first. everyone says hate to be hard hearted but when people say, you can't kick the young people out you, get 100,000 young people. >> michael spler conike smercon report coming up on the sensitive subject, is eric cantor, who supports giving those so-called dreamers the children, who came here as young kids who parents brought them, grown up in the united states, only known the united states, eric cantor and so many others say they should have a path way to citizenship, if you will, should be allowed to get legal status. this this an issue that's going to aba setback issue for those who support it among republicans? >> it is in the short term, but in the long term, gloria's absolutely correct that attrition is going to knock off the republican party. if the gop doesn't expand the tent, we know what these demographic numbers say in terms of the move afoot in the country and how we look as a nation by 2050. if the republican party can't grow the tent in that direction, it will only be a party that wins primaries and never national general elections. >> look, the spirit of dave brat is growing the tent mothan the spirit of mitt romney. more of a chance to grow the tent from the tea party pop u lift spirit than the republican establishment patronizing latino voters. >> why can't you combine a reforming republican, with a bigger -- with a bigger tent. >> i'm for that. >> wheres that candidate? >> all learning more about that candidate -- >> 2016, don't worry about it. >> learning more about the winner in this congressional race, david brat, shortly. robert costa, you've gone excellent reporting for "the washington post." i remember read you not long ago, you were suggesting that eric cantor was in trouble. i remember a lot of people saying, what is he talking about? but tell us about your reporting. what gave you an inclination that the majority leader potentially could lose this race? >> though eric cantor has never brought immigration bills to the floor, the prospect of him doing so has really alienated conservative voters in his district i spoke to david brat in may, we put it on the front page of "the washington post," think was real, brat was in many ways amateur candidate, he was not ready to run against cantor, he had grassroots sport and that was serious. >> remind viewers how much eric cantor spent and how much dave brat spent to win this race. >> well, that's the big problem what we saw here in virginia 7th congressional district. dave brat going nowhere in may. then in the final month eric cantor spent over $1 million on negative advertising. what did this do? it didn't hurt david brat, it elevated him, gave him name recognition, small dollar donations, that propelled him through the finish line. >> see how the house fight plays out for eric cantor's successor. let's see if it it's somebody who carries the banner of the tea party, and i believe probably will be, and how that works within the framework of the leadership of the republican party and how that then means that they don't work with president obama to get -- >> jeb hensarling, the chairman of financial services. one of his priorities in the next few months, defunding export/import bank a bank beloved by big business and big k street republicans and democrat as like. you can say he's more conservative but also more populist. >> all right. we'll leave it on that note. the export/import bank. a lot of viewers focussing in on that huge issue right now. i know the "wall street journal" doesn't like that bank either. bill kristol, thanks very much, gloria, thank you, michael costa, michael smerconish. >>> stunning revelations from bowe bergdahl's journal painting a picture of a troubled young man as the defense secretary defends the deal to get him back. >>> and new allegations that government agents have abused children caught border -- caught crossing the border illegally. take you to the board. >> court documents reveal deal tails of the medical exams that found donald sterling to be mentally incompetent as the legal battle between the billionaire and his wife heats up. means keeping seven billion ctransactions flowing.g, and when weather hits, it's data mayhem. but airlines running hp end-to-end solutions are always calm during a storm. so if your business deals with the unexpected, hp big data and cloud solutions make sure you always know what's coming - and are ready for it. make it matter. that would be my daughter -- hi dad. she's a dietitian. and back when i wasn't eating right, she got me drinking boost. it's got a great taste, and it helps give me the nutrition i was missing. helping me stay more like me.

>> congressman, i hope you're not implying anything other than that. the fact -- >> i'm just asking the question, mr. secretary, that you won't answer. >> i'm going to give you an answer. i don't like the implication. >> answer it. >> reporter: hagel offering one mea culpa to congress. >> we could have done a better job, a better job of keeping you informed. >> reporter: defending against accusations about why congress wasn't informed of the trade. >> by the way i never said that i don't trust congress, that's your words. >> yes, you did. >> i never said i don't trust congress. >> all right. >> you want to check your transcript. >> mr. secretary. >> congressman. >> reporter: hagel revealing the administration's intelligence concluded the five taliban, some tied to al qaeda, don't pose a direct threat to the u.s. >> their focus would almost certainly be on taliban efforts inside afghanistan. not homeland of the united states. >> reporter: but there was a moment suggesting everyone take a deep breath. >> i would just ask us to think for a moment how we would be responding if bowe bergdahl was our son. i -- i really fear for his return to this country with the kind of rhetoric that is being spewed in this very room. >> tonight, d.o.d. official tell me all of the travel arrangements have been finalized for bowe bergdahl's return to a u.s. military hospital in texas. the final decision about when he will make that journey has not been made. but everything indeed has put into place. >> we'll wait and see what happens on that front, barbara. thank you. let's continue the conversation now with the chairman of the house armed services committee, republican mark mckeon. five hours plus. were you convinced, did he do a good job in you accept his arguments, mr. chairman? >> i -- i think that he did a good job. i think he has a very tough job. you know, he's kind of the pointman for the administration now to take the brunt of some of the things that we're finding. i think what i -- what i got out of all of this is they talked about all around it, but the end of the day they dealt with terrorists. because of that, we're less safe than we were a couple of weeks ago. >> you agree with the house speaker that americans will die now as a result of these five detainees set free? >> i certainly hope not, but i think we're more at risk that somebody might take a hostage and demand, you know, other things from us, that's -- that's where i think the risk is. and it could also, these five guys were pretty bad guys, and they've already got blood on their hands and they could have more. the thing is they kept us in the dark about this for several months and i'm afraid that they're going to try to do it again. >> but you're afraid they're going to try to do what again, release other detainees without informing the congress? >> that's my concern. >> didn't he give you an assurance they would notify congress? >> you know, they have in the past. they obviously didn't this time. you followed. you were right there. you heard them say, and you heard brought out in testimony, now i can talk about it, but they did brief us, the leadership, house leadership, and the appropriate committees in november of 2011 that they were starting to reach out to negotiate with the taliban to move for a peace process. and a little small part of that was that they were trying to work out an exchange with these five detainees for sergeant bergdahl. and then they came backer, updated us in january, and by then the taliban opened an office in qatar and it was discovered and everything blew apart -- >> but did you not accept, mr. chairman, the argument they made that if they would have notified members of the congress, it could have leaked and then bergdahl might have been killed? >> you know, no, i really doesn't buy that, not when they told 80 to 90 people in 4 of the departments in the administration they had time to tell the justice department, homeland security, d.o.d., and the white house, people knew. no, i do not buy that. by law, they're directed to report to congress. we didn't divulge the fact we had other briefings two, three years ago. you know, it just as likely that a leak could come out of the 80 or 90 people. >> i'm going to just wrap it up with unrelated question. who do you want to be majority leader in the house of representatives?

pamela talked about it, there's a lot of violence, extreme amount of violence over the past couple of months, more than normal. violent countries, guatemala, honduras, el salvador because of gang violence. families want children out, willing to have children take risks to be near family members here. in addition, they are aware that under u.s. immigration law, if you live in mexico or if you live in canada to the nor, you can be sent back right away. if you live in a country not contiguous to the united states you can't be sent back right away. the situation has to be investigated. children and mothers coming over with children know that typically authorities here in the united states are lenient towards them if they have family members, they'll usually let them go to be with family members. it's important to point out most of the children coming from mexico are not mexican. they're coming from three central american countries where there's so much violence lately. that's why we're reasonably sure, based on that fact, based on talking to mothers who come to this country, the violences a major reason, not the only reason, but a major reason, so many children are coming here over the last couple of weeks. >> a very important story. certainly going to stay on top of it in the coming days and weeks. gary tuchman on the border, pamela brown in washington. >>> results of donald sterling's medical exams in which he was judged mentally incompetent. they have now been released in court, as the legal battle between husband and wife heats up. and the chaotic, final moments of a deadly sohoot-out, just released by las vegas police. you told us your number one olive garden dishes. now they're part of our 2 for $25 guest favorites! get your all-time favorites like creamy chicken alfredo. plus unlimited salad and breadsticks and dessert. 2 for $25 guest favorites at olive garden. hey! have an awesome vacation thank you so much! you're so sweet. yummy! key lime pie at 90 calories. it is so good for not giving in. could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. mmmhmmm...everybody knows that. well, did you know that old macdonald was a really bad speller?

>> this does not explain why he was saying those things to v. stiviano on the tape. shelly sterling said early on she thinks he's got dementia. we asked doctors, do you say racist things, maybe things that you don't mean or never felt. one doctor told us, it doesn't mean you say things you've never felt it doesn't put those ideas into your head. >> brian todd, thank you. >>> ahead, 500,000 iraqis and security forces now fleeing they're fleeing for lives as ruthless terror group captures another key city in iraq. >>> chilling surveillance video released by the las vegas police showing the chaotic, final moments of a deadly shoot-out. when it comes to good nutrition...i'm no expert. that would be my daughter -- hi dad. she's a dietitian. and back when i wasn't eating right, she got me drinking boost. it's got a great taste, and it helps give me the nutrition i was missing. helping me stay more like me.

>>> we want to welcome our viewers in the united states and around the world. i'm wolf blitzer. you're in "the situation room." >>> right now, hundreds of thousands of people are fleeing for their lives, some of the most feared terrorists in the world capture yet another major city in iraq. even government troops they're on the run, withdrawing from territory seized by an islamist group that even al qaeda views as too ruthless. iraq's future is now at risk along with the legacy of america's long and costly war there. let's get the latest from our chief national security correspondent, jim sciutto. >> you know, wolf, during the u.s. invasion of iraq, i was in mosul, takrit. to see them falling to the hands of militants is alarming. it's considered too brutal even for al qaeda, and now this group controls large parts both of syria and iraq. this is iraq, 11 years after the u.s. invasions. three years after the u.s. withdrawal. and now in a state of crisis. after capturing mosul, iraq's second largest city, islamic militants are boldly pushing on. taking over saddam hussein's hometown, the oil refining town of biji, and nearing the capital, baghdad. iraqi security forces following years of training and billions of dollars in weaponry from the u.s. have melted away. leaving checkpoints unmanned and stripping themselves of their uniforms. their american-supplied humvees, claim american websites, now in the hands of al qaeda tied terrorists. today, iraq's foreign minister said his country's very survival is at stake. >> i hope this incident really will lead all iraqi leaders to come together to face this serious threat to the country. >> reporter: u.s. officials say there are early signs of iraqi crews coming together with government forces to respond to the attacks and today national security adviser susan rice said the u.s. will provide support under its strategic framework agreement with iraq. >> we must do more to strengthen our partners' capacity to defeat the terrorist threat on their home turf by providing them the necessary training, equipment, and support. >> reporter: former u.s. ambassador to baghdad, jim jeffries, says washington must urgently do more including providing air support to attack the militants. >> this is no longer a messy situation, it's a catastrophe for the people of iraq, american policy and for the entire reg n region. this is an extremely dangerous situation. it appears that no force can stop these people. >> u.s. help for now has been limited to training and arm sales including f-16 and apache helicopters both recently approved but not yet delivered. things that would certainly be very useful in pushing back advances. i asked the white house and pentagon of how the u.s. will respond with the situation deteriorating rapidly. here's what nse spokesman told me. she said we have expedited shipments of military equipment since the beginning of the year and expanded our training programs inside iraq and jordan. officials are considering other options. they won't say what those options are but you get a sense they're watching the situation extremely closely. they're very concerned. >> these cities are falling. fallujah, takrit, mosul, a city of 2 million people have now fled. nuri al maliki, shiite leader, prime minister of iraq is suggesting iraqi/sunni soldiers, taking off their uniforms. he says there's a conspiracy and they are fleeing. >> it's a damning charge. u.s. officials say there's no evidence of a conspiracy specifically, but here's the thing. the iraqi military was meant to be a unifying force for iraq to bring together the kurds in the north, shiites in the south, sunnis in the west. to be something of an identity for the country. there are, though, some positive signs now. you hear shiites in the south promising forces to respond. the kurds working with the iraqi military. question is, are they up to the task? so far, doesn't look like it. >> jim, hold on for a minute. i want to bring in bobby gosh, "time" international, former baghdad bureau chief. he knows the subject well. here's the key question right now, a question i never thought we'd be asking at least at this point. is baghdad next? how vulnerable is the capital of iraq? given these other cities that have now been taken over by these al qaeda affiliated islamist terrorists? >> wolf, logic suggests that baghdad should be the safist space in iraq, that is where the elite iraqi troops, if there is such a thing exists anymore, that's where the elite iraq canky troops are positioned. however, if you told me a week ago that mosul might have fallen, i would have told you the same thing, a city that big cannot possibly fall to a fairly small group of terrorists. so the big question is will those soldiers surrounding baghdad, will they stand and fight? if they do, then with only 8,000 or 9,000 men, they are stretched quite thin across the length of iraq. and they should quite easily be -- but if the iraqi soldiers don't stand and fight, any city can be taken. >> the iraqi soldiers, bobby, in mosul, they didn't stand and fight. they took off their uniforms. they left. these forces, these insurgents, whatever you want to call them, they came in. they took over the city. they took over the banks. there are reports that they've already ransacked those banks to a tune of about a half a billion dollars and all of that u.s. military equipment that american troops left behind now in the hands of these guys. what's going on? >> well, the -- mosul is the most shocking of all, because among other things, mosul has an illustrious history as a city that has provided many of iraq's military commanders over the decades. and mosul, people of mosul take pride in that military leadership history. so, it is especially damning when a city like that falls. in baghdad, what maliki and some other shiite leaders seem to be trying to do in addition to having the military, they're trying to raise shiite militias. that was not the case in the north which tends to be mostly kurdish and sunni. if the shiite militias can stand alongside the iraqi military and hold back the advance, then baghdad has a chance, but it is a pretty damning thing when the prime minister of the country feels it necessary to call on private militias is stand up and protect the capital. >> it sounds to me, jim, you've been studying this, it looks like they're going back to the battle days in iraq of a civil war. maybe like in syria where you got the sunnis on one side, the shiites on another side. we had hoped, of course, that that was over with, but it looks like they're getting back into that. >> yeah. that's the worry. you have muqtada al shara trying to reconvene the army, if you remember from the mid 2000s. if that's the secret so solving this problem. that's a real problem that you're reverting to these, as bobby said, these ethnic militias. also bigger picture as well. this shows the limit of the train and equip strategy of the obama administration that you've seen in iraq, you've seen it in libya, in mali, other places where you've trained up those troops and those troops often haven't been up to the task of pushing back islam irkic forces that's a cautionary trial as the u.s. plans to remove forces from afghanistan. >> back in 2003, bobby, the president, president george w. bush, he was upbeat looking to iraq's future. listen to what he said. >> liberated iraq. can show the power of freedom. to transform that vital region by bringing hope and progress into the lives of millions. america's interests in security and america's belief in liberty both lead in the same direction to a free and peaceful iraq. >> that was the hope, bobby. i remember when i was in palusia in mosul back in 2005 even then i was there with the central commander. there were a lot of concerns at the time that this was not necessarily going to work out as so many had hoped. >> yes, i was in baghdad and watching that speech on television with a number of iraqi friends. and colleagues. and there was a brief moment for maybe the summer of 2003 when that hope existed, but it was then put out very quickly by some very poor decisions by the bush administration and then beyond that after the american withdrawal by a series of incredibly poor decisions by nuri al maliki, the prime minister then. so there are no iraqis left i'm pretty sure who are holding on to that hope anymore. >> those hopes have clearly faded. bob bobby, jim sciutto. >>> still ahead, eric cantor on his shocking primary defeat and next move. plus, we'll meet the man who toppled the most powerful republican in the house of representatives. >>> we're going live to brazil for the latest on the preparations for

stepping down as majority leader. it is with great humility that i do so, knowing the tremendous honor it has been to hold this position. >> the number two republican in the house of representatives, eric cantor, revealing his next move just hours after his jaw-dropping primary defeat that's likely to be a game changer here in washington. one of cantor's colleagues says this huge new loss for the gop establishment is sending shivers down the spines of republicans out there. the man who toppled cantor said he's shocked he actually won. joe johns is in richmond, virginia, where the election stunned almost everyone, shall we say. what is going on? what is the latest, joe? >> reporter: well, wolf, we're outside his headquarters here in a strip mall in the richmond area. he had a lot of help from an incumbent who was seen as disconnected from his district, but dave brat for his part did push big tea party issues including amnesty, including immigration. it all worked out for him in something like a perfect storm. dave brat was such a long shot even he did not think he could beat the house majority leader. >> this is the happiest moment obviously of my life. >> reporter: brat raised just over $200,000 for his campaign. nearly the same amount eric cantor's campaign spent at steakhouses. according to "the new york times." he was as unprepared for victory as he was for the tough questions. here is how he responded when asked about arming the syrian rebels. >> i thought we were just going to chat today about the celebratory aspects. >> reporter: it was an inauspicious welcome to national politics for a college economics professor who has never held office. he teaches at randolph macon college. the same skchool where his democratic opponent is on the faculty who will face him in the november election. though brat claimed allegiance to tea party ideals, he did not attract financial support from any of the major tea party groups. political writer jeff shapiro of the richmond "times dispatch." >> sometimes ideas are bigger than dollars. fewer votes make for bigger surprises. >> reporter: what may have helped brat most was cantor, himself, whose disconnect from the district led to his downfall. >> i honestly wasn't very impressed. too closed minded. >> it's kind of a lose/lose situation. i'm happy cantor lost. i'm not sure how happy i am about the guy that won. >> reporter: it's on to the general election now. this is a strong republican district. it's pretty clear they have traded in one of the most powerful republicans in congress for a member who is likely to be on the back bench of the house of representatives. wolf? >> joe johns in richmond, virginia, for us. thanks. let's bring in our chief national correspondent, john king. he's the anchor of cnn's "inside politics." and our political commentator, ryan lizza of the "new yorker" magazine. so does this mean nothing is going to get done in washington for the rest of this year? what do you think? >> sure looks that way. the republicans will now have this leadership election and fairly or unfairly eric cantor was viewed and dave brat campaigned against him as somebody who wanted to be a governing conservative, open to a modest deal with the president on immigration, someone defending the banks and, you know, wall street here. and so if you're a politician, you're cautious anyway. if you're a republican, now you're nervous. you're going to have a new leadership that will be more conservative than the current republican leadership. and they believe the message from this election is, you know, don't do business with president obama. could that change in a month or two? maybe. but as of tonight, no. >> so is the republican establishment the big loser here in this race in virginia? >> yes. no doubt about it. i mean, you know, i spent a lot today just listening to this guy's stump speech. >> dave brat? >> dave brat. what did he really campaign on? a lot of the conversation has been about immigration. at the end of the campaign, there's no doubt that sort of was the issue that crystalized in the race. he spent the spring talking about government collusion with big business. he tied eric cantor to wall street. he tied eric cantor to corporate interests and lobbyists in washington. some ways he sounded almost like elizabeth know, conservative campaign against big business. and this more than i think immigration even is becoming the big fault line in the republican party. there's a rise in this anti-wall street sentiment. and even when he talked about immigration, he talked about it not as an anti-immigrant proposition, but as something that was a boone to big business. big business was just going into washington and lobbying for cheap supply of labor. >> he is an economics professor so he sees it from the economic standpoint. here's what eric cantor said about what maybe should be his successor. listen to this. >> i don't know who it is that will actually be running. i can tell you that if my dear friend and colleague, kevin mccarthy does decide to run, i think he'd make an outstanding majority leader. and i will be backing him with my full support. >> so what do you make -- some people say that's a kiss of death right now. >> mccarthy probably wishes he'd say that publicly and not privately though they'

elizabeth warren is leading this fight in the senate. elizabeth has written a bill that would let students refinance their loans at today's lower interest rates, just like parents can refinance a mortgage. it pays for itself by closing loopholes that allow millionaires to pay lower tax rates. i don't know, by the way, why folks aren't more outraged about this. i am going to take a pause out of my prepared text. somebody think that if , like me, has done really well in part because the country is invested in them, that they would not mind at least paying the same rate as a teacher or nurse. good economic argument for it, that they should pay a lower rate. it is just class. that's all. it is bad enough that that is already happening. it would be scandalous if we allow it, those kinds of tax loopholes for the very, very fortunate, to survive while students are having trouble just getting started in their lives. you have got a pretty straightforward till here. this week congress will vote on the bill. i want americans to pay attention, to see where their lawmakers priorities lie. lower tax bills for millionaires or lower student loan bills for the middle class? this should be a no-brainer. group of fara right republicans in congress who pushed this track of -- trickle-down economic plan, telling hard-working students and families you are on your own. two years ago they let the student loan rates double. last year they tried to strip protections from lower income students. this year they voted overwhelmingly to/pell grants and make it harder for families to afford college. if it -- if you are a big oil company, they will go to bat for you. if you are a student? good luck. some of the republicans in congress seem to believe that it is just because -- that just because some of the young people , that me need some help they are not trying hard enough. they don't get it. they need to talk to andy. these students work hard to get where they are today. chanel roberson, where is she? she is the first in her family to graduate from college. [applause] she is not asking for a handout. none of these folks are. they are working hard, doing exactly what we tell them they should do. they want a chance. if they do exactly what they are told they should do, they are not suddenly loaded up with so much debt that they cannot buy a house, cannot think about starting a family, cannot imagine starting a business on their own. plenty of people from both parties have paid lip service to the next generation, and then they abandon them when it counts. we, the voters, let it happen. this should be straightforward, just like the minimum wage. just like equal pay for equal work should be straightforward. one of the things i want the voters out there to consider, particularly parents who are struggling trying to figure out how they are going to pay their kids college education, take a look and see who it is that is fighting for you and your kids and who is it that is not. if there are no consequences, then this kind of responsible behavior continues on the members of congress -- on the part of the members of congress. i want young people to go to college, graduate, and pay off their debt. we have made good progress. despite the efforts of some in congress to block the progress. chance, ifhey had a they do not look out for you and then throw up a whole bunch of arguments that are meant to obvious kate, meaning confuse, rather than to clarify and illuminate -- >> [laughter] then you should call them to account. in the meantime i will take these actions today on the .ehalf of the young people here thank you, everybody. god bless you, god bless america. >> the president of the united states signing an executive order on student loans, the president saying in his prepared remarks that a higher education is the best investment you can make. he continued that this is a country where opportunity should be available to anybody in america. higher education opens the doors of opportunity to all. joining me now from more on the student that proposal, phil mattingly. he turned >> -- >> he turned this into a political attack on republicans on capitol hill. what he can do himself is limited, he is acknowledging that, he needs help to move the broader agenda forward and he does not have it. there is one primary thing we have focused on, he is expanding what they put in place. they will have to expand that, it will reach about 5 million .ew borrowers no word on how they can pay for that, but that is a step forward that they can take on their own. >> $1.2 trillion, is this going to make a dent? there was discretionary income for borrowers to put cash in the pocket. as we have heard, there was a lot of evidence to show that there was a growing divergence between student loan debt and those that have it. you can buy a house, save money, and what he is trying to do is stimulate money in the economy, as they have money to spend. wille education department be assisting in the effort. they will be assisting in the contracts would loan servicers. are they willing to stick with borrowers in the effort to keep them from defaulting? >> i think that they are. what will be interesting to watch is where the details end up. from an incentive basis there is a chance that this works out well for everyone. how the white house approaches this will be interesting. a few analysts this morning said they felt that if they lined up the incentives better, this might be a net positive on the business side of things, but it really does depend on how the department of education comes down here as they go through this process. put outnheim securities a note saying that the president's student loan reduction plan will likely be a negative for housing because borrowers will find it harder to get mortgages because of the debt to income ratios, they will remain elevated for a longer. of time. thismortgage lenders see as a negative? >> a good question. this means you are stretching out the life of the loan, so your debt to income ratio may not change much because you may just be paying interest. however, you do have more money in your pocket. perhaps you have more for a down payment. so, we will see. >> senator elizabeth warren, sponsoring legislation that would let students refinance loans to take advantage of lower rates, but there is a catch, the president wants to make up for the loss of federal revenue by imposing new taxes on the wealthy. mitch mcconnell says the bill does not deal with college costs and does not address what he in thehe lack of jobs obama economy. is this bill dead on arrival in the u.s. senate? >> without question. onk, there will be a debate this. democrats will be happy to take us to the floor and have this debate, but as you heard from a frustrated president, there is no path forward in a democratically controlled senate, let alone the house, where republicans stand is -- look, there is nothing here they find acceptable. raising taxes on high income individuals is something they will never go along with, as you have heard the president alluded to. what they believe right now is that the administration could put better jobs in place for younger individuals coming out of coll

elizabeth vargas and david muir. >>> good evening. elizabeth has the evening off. as we come on the air, a question. is a killer still walking the streets of the small american town, because tonight, authorities say where there's smoke, there's fire. and not just a house on fire, but a burning bed. tonight here who was in that bed and was the kill earl one of them? you're about to get an inside look at the evidence. you decide. here's jim avila. >> reporter: 3:00 in the morning down hidden meadow court. a warm, sticky night, clear skies, full moon, the peaceful scene shattered by a spark. >> gaston county 911. >> we have a house fire, fully engulfed, 4835 hidden meadow court. >> you think there's somebody inside? >> reporter: suddenly the sky lights up bright. a house is burning, and it looks bad. neighbors are horrified. >> we think there is somebody inside, please help us. there's a lady's car here, she's not answering -- there's no way she's going to survive this. >> and now at noon, a house burned down to the ground where a mother and two children lived. eyewitness news reporter ken lemon, he's been on the scene all morning. >> reporter: reporter ken lemon is among the first on the scene. >> as you mentioned, police can't stay it was that woman. the house was in ruins. and you could tell it was a pretty bad fire. >> reporter: the missing lady is 31-year-old lucy johnson. married twice. a well-liked young mother living with her two children, working as an emergency room nurse. lucy's children are safe. they had spent the night with their respective fathers. but where is lucy?

how you get that attached that soon? >> i just felt like we really had this connection, and we went right into family mode. the kids all got along, our three dogs got along, i mean, it was like just everything just clicked. >> reporter: they hit it off. whirlwind relationship. and right off the bat, less than three weeks after meeting, lucy has some news for mike -- she is pregnant. >> very unexpected, very unplanned. >> reporter: you just met this woman. >> right. >> reporter: and soon after you find out she's going to have your baby? >> that's right. >> reporter: mike says he quickly got used to the idea of becoming a new dad. they were in love. mike saved this voicemail lucy left two nights before her sudden death. >> hey, baby, it's me. just calling to say good night. i'm going to bed right now. so, i love you and i'll talk to you tomorrow. bye. >> i was happy. i was tickled to death, you know. lucy was beautiful, smart, she was a fantastic mother. you know, i couldn't think of anybody i'd want to have a baby with more. >> reporter: so tickled that just three months into their love affair, he gives lucy a diamond engagement ring. a great big one. >> we felt like, you know, we're going to be together, we're going to have this baby, it's going to be wonderful, so you know, let's just go ahead and get -- let's do it. >> reporter: a couple nights later, lucy cooks mike a pot roast with biscuits at her home in gastonia. good times, says mike. until a shadow is cast over the evening by the roar of a pickup truck outside. it's jim spelock, the ex-boyfriend, arriving for his visitation day. there to pick up his infant child for the night. >> when she came back from the door, her demeanor was all different. >> reporter: what did he want from her that night?

>> yes. the way it was described. >> reporter: surprisinsurprisina victim of a fire, there is no soot, no ash in her airway. that can mean only one thing -- when the fire started, lucy wasn't breathing. she was already dead. suddenly the police clam up. they have more disturbing clues to follow. >> they still wouldn't tell us anything. they wouldn't even tell us how she died. >> reporter: when we come back, if the fire didn't kill lucy, what did?

but there is a problem. that star witnes, he has a bit of a credibility issue. you see, he is a convicted child rapist who says mead told him all this while both were locked up together for a short time in county jail. >> i've never confessed to a cop. i've never confessed to my lawyers. i've never confessed to anybody because i'm not going to confess to something i didn't do. but i'm going to confide in a guy who raped a girl. >> reporter: as the prosecution closes its case, is the deck stacked against mike mead, or is it a house of cards? next, the murder victimch thes from the grave. lucy's journal names a suspect. >> i mean, she wrote it down. >> reporter: it's a former boyfriend, but which one?

>> absolutely not. absolutely not. not one thing to do with lucy's death. >> reporter: did mike mead murder lucy johnson? >> no, he didn't. >> reporter: and how do you know that? >> all the evidence says that he didn't. >> reporter: really? what about all those women prosecutors say mike mistreated. many of them at the end of the relationship were quite unhappy with you, right? they were angry at you. >> sure. i wouldn't doubt that. they said at my bond hearing that there was eighteen women that came forward and signed sworn affidavits of abuse, that i'm a violent person, and i challenge you to show one. not one. there's never been one complaint from any woman that i've ever been with that i've laid a hand on them physically. and are there girls out there that ended badly with? who hasn't? >> reporter: but you never hit any of them? >> never. >> reporter: never threatened them? >> never. never stalked any of them, never burned any of their houses. never raped anybody, nothing. >> the expectation coming from the d.a.'s office is that we're going to hear a lot of these women. >> reporter: but the jury never hears that. >> we don't see not one of these women take the stand. >> reporter: that's right. the judge ruled that their stories were inadmissible, irrelevant because none of those women had ever accused him of a crime. okay, but what about the engagement ring, the so-called blood diamond? prosecutors say its part of the motive. mead was done with lucy, didn't want that baby and wanted his ring back. >> it's a $15,000 ring, just never was found. we thought -- we found that to be very, very strange. very odd. >> reporter: but it's not airtight, because it wasn't like it was found in mike mead's pocket nor his drawer or in his car. >> right. >> reporter: it just wasn't found. >> it just wasn't found. >> reporter: mike mead lives alone, so, on the night of the murder, there's no one but his dog to vouch for him. >> and when i went to bed that night, god knows i didn't think i needed an alibi. you know, if the dog had talked we'd be in good shape but you know, dogs can't talk. >> reporter: but mead offers police three electronic alibis. first -- he says his alarm system, as he demonstrated to us, shows he was at home all night. two -- his cell phone also puts him at home all night. three -- he was playing madden nfl on playstation and the timestamp on the game places him at home at the crucial time. but how does mead answer the prosecution claim that the dna evidence proves he forced sex with lucy on the night of the murder and lied about it? mead's defense investigator steve ehlers admits if the dna found in lucy was fresh, mike was there that night and murdered her. >> the perpetrator goes in, rapes her, shoots her, burns her house down. >> reporter: but on cross examination, the prosecution witness is forced to concede that critical dna may not be all that fresh and just as mike claimed, could have been from sex days before the murder. >> that semen was not the home run or the smoking gun they thought they were going to have. >> reporter: and if that isn't enough of a perry mason moment, listen up. the defense is granted a rare gift. the judge allows them to stand up in open court, in front of the jury, and not only proclaim mike mead's innocence, they get to point their finger at the man they say is the real killer. >> in north carolina, the rule is pretty strict, you can't do that. unless you have got direct evidence pointing to the guilt of someone else -- relevant evidence. >> reporter: unleashed, the defense turns prosecution and puts jim spelock on trial. starting with his alibi, that he was at his house with his baby, his roommate didn't hear him leave, and there was a woman who first told police spelock and she were texting all night. but then revised her story. >> did i think it was weird that he sent me a text at 3:00, yes. >> okay. >> it was out of character for him. >> she showed back up at the police department and said, he didn't text me all night. actually, he stopped texting me for two and a half hours. ironically, at the two and a half hours when lucy was being killed and her house was being set on fire. >> reporter: in fact, by the time of the trial, lucy has been dead for three years. but now the jury is about to hear from her again. that's right. lucy becomes the star witness at her own murder trial. offering stunning testimony from the grave. written in this pink polka dot notebook. a journal lucy kept to build a custody case against jim spelock >> lucy told us over and over again in her own words who she thought she was in danger from. >> reporter: and it wasn't just all about that pink notebook. the prosecution witness, deana bradshaw, reluctantly delivered some devastating evidence in mike mead's favor. >> and she said, "well, if anything happens to me, you know who did it." and so she was referring to jim spelock. but it was all in laughter. >> reporter: laughed it off, maybe. but then she brought it up again. but she had said, "well, remember what i said," you know, referring to if she's killed, that jim spelock did it. and we were laughing and she left. that was the night she was murdered. >> reporter: and in that pink notebook, lucy also documents accounts of spelock's online gambling and an interest in cross-dressing that extended to buying sexual paraphernalia on the internet while he was supposed to be working at the nuclear power plant. >> just about two weeks before her death, for the first time ever, she was able to document, to actually document on the computer, that he was purchasing these items. >> reporter: documentation lucy had just turned over to her custody lawyer days before her death. >> mr. spelock was aware that she had the proof of her allegations. >> reporter: that's the defense case. jim spelock murdered lucy johnson because she was about to win the custody case and reveal his darkest secrets. how more definitive can you be? >> that's another reason why at first we felt like it was him. but i've learned -- don't jump to conclusions. he was perfect person to be framed for a crime. >> reporter: jim spelock turned down our requests for an interview, but denies he murdered lucy or bought women's clothes for himself. and prosecutor eddie meeks believed him. >> regardless of all these different arrows pointing, all these red herrings, at the end of the dashy, when you weigh al the evidence, it was only one arrow and it pointed at michael mead. >> reporter: but who does the jury believe? >> what would you make of those writings in lucy's journal, enough to influence how you'd vote on the jury? let us know on twitter, use #abc2020. you'll hear from that jury when we come back for the first time, revealing why they decided what they did, right here on "20/20." we'll be right back. >>> when "20/20" continues -- what the jury heard. what they thought. and their bombshell verdict, based on lucy's journal. >> i mean, she wrote it down. >> but which name did she write?

>> because i had set in the same trial for seven weeks that they had. >> reporter: and? >> and if it was sitting on that jury, i would have been going, you know, what in the world is going on with this case? >> reporter: so "20/20" gathered 11 jurors and returned them to their cemenseats in the same courtroom, for their first group interview, where it was clear that the defense strategy worked. >> i don't understand how they were able to come to trial to not even give a second look at jim spelock. >> reporter: a key element for the jury -- lucy's own words in her journal. so lucy johnson, herself, told you, a juror, jim spelock did it. >> if anything were to happen to me, spelock did it. i mean, she wrote it down. >> he wanted that son named after him, and she wouldn't do it. >> reporter: and they thought spelock had motive. the women's clothing lucy said he bought for himself. >> james spelock was backed into a corner at this point. >> i think -- desperate, in that he needed to stop that from being out in public. >> reporter: the jurors tell us, in all of lucy's messages from the grave, they found not one word against mike mead. >> there was never any entry in any of her journals about him doing anything aggressive to her at all. >> i thought the state was really grasping at straws. >> the evidence was overwhelming, as far as mike mead not doing it. >> reporter: and that's hard to hear, isn't it? >> that's hard to hear. >> reporter: the jurors saved their harshest criticism for the police. comparing them to a classic fictional north carolina law enforcement bafoon. >> i called him barney fife, in my mind. we got a bunch of barney fifes. >> i think barney was smarter. >> they didn't have a clue. >> they blew it. and i think that's what bother mes about this case the most. and we do have a horrendous murder case, that has not been solved. it believes you wondering. >> reporter: so whether it was bad police work or prosecuting the wrong man, or perhaps the perfect crime that allowed mike mead to get away with murder, one thing for sure -- no one thinks lucy johnson got justice. since mike mead has been tried and acquitted, and since you don't believe that there's anybody else out there that could have done the crime, lucy will never get justice, in your mind. >> not in my mind. >> reporter: today, jim spelock has full custody of his son cason, who after lucy's death, he renamed james spelock iii. mike mead says although he is free, he lives under a cloud of suspici suspicion. we interviewed meeks, okay? to this day he thinks you did it. >> well, to this day he's an idiot. >> where there's smoke, there's fire. >> the evidence is clear. i have no respect for meeks. so, you know, what meeks thinks i don't really care. what i think matters is what the 15 jurors that heard the evidence think. >> reporter: mead has moved from south to north carolina, trying to live a new life. did it bother you that even though you were aacquitted, thee are people to this day that believe you got away with murder? >> well, sure. it's excruciating. >> reporter: right now, mead is in the middle of an open lawsuit charging his civil rights were violated, and he was falsely prosecuted by the gaston county police. the police say they cannot comment on a pending legal matter. do you ever close your eyes and think about like if none of this happened. where would you life be with lucy right now? do you do that? >> oh, yeah, of course. yeah, i would have a wife, a beautiful wife, a little boy, yeah. >> reporter: you miss her? >> yeah, i miss her. >> reporter: the home where lucy lived and died, today, just a vacant lot. a driveway that leads to nowhere. like the dead end investigation into her murder. anything help at all? >> no. just my faith in god, that one day, the person that did this will have to face him, face another judge. >> reporter: where all the evidence will be in. >> right. nothing's hidden from him. it'll be exposed.

elizabeth frazier. anybody ever heard of susan elizabeth frazier? i'm sure that dr.tterson knows the first black woman to teach in an integrated school in new york city. the black teachers have to teach at an all-black school and they didn't teach an integrated or white schools. the lengthy court battle for her to achieve this remarkable you know stature, that was in 1895. she was the president of the women's auxiliary. mc laughton who have these women's clubs was the vice president and charles ward fillmore's wife marie was a secretary. his daughter was also in the 15th women's auxiliary. what did they do? they help the families of the men with finances but with supplies, with food. they help the men. you wouldn't believe what the men in the regiment did didn't have. we would think that this would be an offer issued by the military. it wasn't. toothbrushes, columns. all these things the women's auxiliary provided but something else too. the silent protest march of 19 1917. and the women were very important in the organization. we always hear about a philip randolph

we have elizabeth warren leading this fight in the senate. elizabeth has written a bill that would let students refinance their loans at lower rates, like their parents can refinance a mortgage. it closes the loop itself. i don't know, by the way, why folks aren't more outraged about this. i'm going to take a pause out of my prepared text. you would think that if somebody like me has done really well in part because the country's invested in them that they wouldn't mind at least paying the same rate as a teacher or a nurse. there's not a good economic argument for it that they should pay a lower rate. it just clout. that's all. so it's bad enough that that's already happening. it would be scandalous if we allowed those kinds of tax loopholes for the very, very fortunate to survive while students are having trouble just getting started in their lives. so you got a pretty straight forward bill here. and this week congress will vote on that bill. and i want americans to pay attention to see where their lawmakers' priorities lie here. lower tax bills for m

elizabeth joins me now as well as ayman. elizabeth, first to you, because you covered this and dealt with the family for years and covered the pentagon as well as every other beat in washington before becoming deputy bureau chief. what is your understanding of the circumstances under which bowe bergdahl left his post? >> well, as the story said in today's paper, the senior military commanders who are very familiar with the investigation into his disappearance saying that he wandered off the post on his own sometime after midnight on june 30th, 2009. he left a note behind saying he had grown disillusioned with the war and packed up a back pack and did not take his body armor or weapons which is extraordinary. this is from a former senior military commander, very good source. the pentagon has not said officially what happened to him these days but of course the initial reports from the military, american military were that he had walked off his post back in 2009, which is how we reported it. then there was some -- there was -- after that bowe bergdahl said himself in a video he lagged behind on a patrol. the pentagon is not saying anything about how he disappeared they are waiting to ask him himself when he's ready. >> let me ask you also about the circumstances of his recruitment. he comes from idaho, home schooled and family didn't have a television and lots and lots of books. it's an unusual background. i read somewhere and it may have been your reporting, that he initially thought it was sort of joining the peace corps, that he was going to be helping the afghan people, that maybe he didn't really understand because his disillusionment came so quickly. >> there are several things going on. one is that he was very much as you described an outdoorsy free spirit in this rural part of idaho, lived down the road from sun valley. but haley was not like that where he lived. he had an adventurist spirit and series of odd jobs and turned to the military to get focus in his life, which is not that unusual. his parents were not happy he joined the army but supported him. he did have some romantic notions from based on what i've heard from his friends and father, that this was going -- he was going over to afghanistan to help the afghan people. those views were quickly dashed after he got there. he arrived in may of 2009. it was a rough period for the war, american troops are spread very, very thin. president obama just announced the initial surge but most of the troops had note gotten there. there was -- there was reports of morale and discipline problems in his unit. it was a very small outpost on the border with afghanistan, tough time for the war. he saw things that his parents said his first e-mails home were very euphoric and he was going to be helping afghans as military recruiters told him. pretty soon he told that war is ugly and bloody and he became very disillusioned. >> elizabeth, if you can hang on for a moment, ayman is joining us where they have released an update on his condition. >> reporter: that's right, for a second day in a row health officials are updating the health condition of bergdahl. they continue to say he is making his reinteg ration process, but perhaps more interesting is that he's participating in that care. that is the first time that there's an indication officially from the military that perhaps he is cognizant and aware of his surroundings and now that they are using the term participating in the health care, there may be an engagement taking place between him and the medical personnel around him. the next stage of the process involves hundreds of people from attorneys to lawyers to health officials and all kinds of experts who will accompany him as he returns to the united states at some point in the coming several days. there are also indications from the update that was given that he is still in stable condition and that his conditi

to withstand roadside bombs i was joined earlier by elizabeth beavers to talk with us about this growing militarization of police departments elizabeth is a legislative associate for militarism and civil liberties at the friends committee on national legislation i first asked her if the recent mistakes made by the swat teams represented a larger issue at hand. sure you know what our good friends at the a.c.l.u. they've done a fantastic job of submitting this report and just sort of confirming what i think many of suspected for a long time which is that the police are looking more and more like military you know and we remember that military forces and police units are two separate institutions they have separate mandates and separate responsibilities but instead what we're seeing is that weapons and equipment that's specifically designed for the war zone is flooding in to local police and so when they have it they're going to want to use it and we've seen the rise of swat teams a rise of all these aggressive tactics that you've done such a great job of highlighting here and then also we're seeing that as they increase their usage of

elizabeth palmer was the first reporter to track khattala down in benghazi and interview him. elizabeth is in syria tonight. liz, tell us about that meeting. >> reporter: well, we'd heard ahmed abu khattala's name in connection with the assault on the u.s. mission several times, so we simply asked a member of the libyan security forces if he could set up a meeting. abu khattala came along very openly to a hotel cafe, and i put it to him that the then- president of libya was calling him the prime suspect. he denied it. he said he was at the u.s. mission that night, but he'd arrived late, just looking for somebody. he was dressed in a long, white libyan robe, and as a conservative muslim, he wouldn't shake my hand, as a woman. but he was very polite, and he was, above all, confident. he said, "if the libyans want to come and arrest me, they know where i live." however, we did notice, as he left the hotel, his security team were checking under his car to see if anybody had put a bomb there. >> glor: elizabeth palmer from syria tonight. liz, thank you very much. in nebraska, twin tornadoes last night killed two people and hurt more than a dozen. today, the national weather service said one tornado was an ef-4, with wind as high as 200 miles per hour. it wiped out most of a small town near the iowa border. justin pazera with our cbs omaha affiliate kntv is in pilger, nebraska, tonight. >> reporter: double tornadoes are rare. these were separated by a mile. the funnel on the left hit pilger, a small village surrounded by corn and soybeans. >> city hall is gone. the fire department's destroyed. public library, severe damage. >> reporter: county sheriff mike unger. >> it's total devastation. total devastation. again, 75% of the town, in my opinion, is damaged or destroyed beyond repair. >> reporter: pilger is only about six blocks long by six blocks wide with fewer than 350 residents. one person here was killed by the storm, five-year-old calista dixon. >> we believe she was in a mobile home on
