Investigators still have no answers about why Las Vegas shooter Stephen Patek did what?
He did what we continue to investigate is whether anybody else may have known about this incident when you have people that are hell-bent on
killing fellow citizens
There's a lot of tools at their disposal when you take firearms away from people you take him away from law-abiding citizens
Extreme weather yes again tropical storm Nate turns into a hurricane
Overnight killing at least 24 people now across Central America three people have been arrested and charged in connection to an isis-inspired
Terror plot that prosecutors say targeted. New york city concerts subways and landmarks Isis is making a concerted and
constant effort to establish
Both a network as well as folks who will be able to execute attacks here with dozens of senior military
Officials flanking him President Trump says this is the calm before the storm reporters tried to get clarification from him, but to no avail
Jordan representative Scalise to catch his pitch his special agent David Bailey
All right now to a tough top story of course we get serious here as well
It's been six days since fifty-eight innocent people were gunned down at a Las Vegas music festival
But authorities authorities still say they don't have a motive this coming has more dramatic video surfaces of the shooting
Which investigators are now asking the public to help figure out?
Why it all happened will cars live for its in Las Vegas with the very latest will what are you hearing there?
Tell us that they're tracking down more than a thousand leads this weekend
and it comes as
26 survivors are still in critical condition almost 60 people still in the hospital and here at the scene
You can see police tape is still up
This is actually covering up where this fence was what happened was as the concert was going on the shot started coming in
Dozens of people came through and a stampede they pushed through this fence as they were running for their lives
Go everybody go
As more and more of that
Terrifying video comes out authorities are still struggling for the motive
We know they're talking to Stephen paddocks girlfriend, Mary Lou Dan Lee they're also looking into his financial state
We've learned that he earned five million dollars in gambling winnings back in 2015
He also paid for at least one house in a car in cash the same time
They're continuing to see a paddock actually planned to stake out other concert festivals in both, Chicago and Boston
And at the same time this city is taking significant time to honor the victims
There's a memorial out in front of the iconic welcome to Las Vegas
I'd a carpenter from Chicago drove into town after the attack and he set up
58 wooden crosses each now has the name of each
individual victim and their picture when you walk through that it is both powerful and
emotional
It's humbling and heartbreaking it's so beautiful, but so devastating it's every emotion at once
The kindness of this community is just amazing
And along those lines. There is a unity prayer walk
That's going to take place in just a couple of hours Vice President Mike Pence is coming in town for that as he
Remembers the victims as well guys back to you alright. Bye for us. Thank you. Well. What's so tragic about?
This is all those people that have lost a loved one they may never know what happened here
They may never know what the motive was because that's where we always go to what was behind
The what was the reason for doing this and then how do we prevent this from happening again?
That's why we so often go to that gun control debate
And if you're like us you wake up this morning you
thinking they gotta have info on why the guy did it you got to have info and then it's almost tough to sit here and
Report we still don't know, but I still don't know there's no rationale that would ever justify anything
But when you have a motive you can at least understand in this case
What the world not going to understand? I'm hoping that they have something. They just haven't given us yet
That's the whole thing I would be of course the first reaction is ghost goes right to gun control
And that's an emotional reaction. We're hearing tons of that right now
We saw Democrats go at gun Hillary Clinton wedeck gun control almost within 24 hours. It was immediately where they go
We've heard Chuck Schumer Blaine
The saying that those that are dead would be would be angry at the NRA and Republicans because they're not doing enough well
Nancy Pelosi also was on Capitol Hill on Thursday, and had this to say
So what they're gonna say if you give them bum stock, it's gonna be a slippery slope I
certainly hope so
There's your revelation right that's pretty straightforward
Okay
So they want to keep it the argument that Republicans who are on board with the bump stock?
Banning legislation and Democrats is we're gonna keep it right here
Just the bump stock
But what the fear is of so many gun owning Americans that get second amendment lovers is that the Democrats don't want you bump stock?
it whatever that's what you're gone, and that's where it starts is that slippery slope, and then you've got the
Minority Leader admitting that it's interesting. You don't ever really see Democrats and Republicans coming together together on gun control
But when it comes to this buck stop. I'm not sure you could really call that gun control
That's that's something you put on a semi-auto automatic weapon
Many people don't even know that existed even some of the lawmakers so you have some Republicans saying okay?
we can get on board with that even the
Administration saying we're willing to look into it and the an array but not everyone is on that same page with this talk of gun
Control congressman Sean Duffy was on our show earlier, and here's what he said the Dems are trying to do
This is incrementalism for democrats if they can
Just gradually take our gun rights away, and so the Second Amendment is gone that is their mission if you look at bump stocks
We're not talking about guns. We're talking about a
Piece of equipment that takes a semi-automatic to an automatic weapon and automatic weapons are banned, and that's why we can take that step
With Democrats, but make no mistake we all understand the game of what they're trying to do
Yeah, I mean, that's why that's why Republicans can get on board with this. Why do we need a buck stop?
Why does anyone need that bomb stuff nobody does the truth matters? You don't need it
It takes it makes it an automatic weapon that's illegal. That's the internet' stance I happen to support that myself
I don't like to get but my thing is if you can want to just light your way out of this there doesn't even legislated
You but I'm just saying it could be a truck. It could be a pressure yes
It could be this P
Madmen in a free society are gonna find ways to kill people and you can't create a law to solve every problem and so much
Of this is so the Washington DC
You can pat themselves on the back and say look we passed the bump stop of Legends
You can't pass anything else meaningful
and the only time Democrats ever work with
Republicans is if they get their way I think about that there may be another thing that they work together on
Which as we've been saying is so
unusual in this in this era for Republicans and Democrats to come together we can now report at Fox News our Chad pogrom who is
the senior producer on Capitol Hill President Trump called Chuck Schumer the Minority Leader
Yesterday and talked to him about health care and whether or not they're gonna find a way to work together
Or if this is a bigger message that the president is trying to send to
Republicans if you can't get your act together you can't do a full repeal when you have the majority of the Senate and the House
And I'm in control the executive branch if we can't do that as Republicans. I got to get a deal done
I've got to make some real changes on health care, and if it means working with the Democrats. I'm gonna go there
He's a deal maker, and he's gonna make it'll make a deal
Maybe that'll force their hand and make a deal on the Republican side as well it might
I mean, but if you're sitting in the White House, and you say okay the Republicans couldn't pass the skinny bill
And then the Republicans couldn't pass
Lindsey Graham's bill
Then I need to scare them into coming back to the table because guess what
Chuck Schumer is not going to agree to any bill that repeals Obamacare and every single one of those Republicans in the Senate ran
Including John McCain to appeal ran on repealing and replacing that not fixing a little bit and replacing repealing and replacing
Chuck Schumer would never be on board for that again Democrats come to the table when they want to spend your money
More of your money because they love to spend money, or if they can preserve
Obamacare they would see this as a path to work with President Trump to preserve
Obamacare because that's all they want to do is protect it the president is smart in creating some leverage with his own caucus
hopefully
That's where it goes because you you don't want to cut a big deal that that makes
Obamacare permanent he ran against Obamacare as well so a lot of tricky ground here
And I just don't believe that the unicorn's of good faith, Democrats truly exist who really want to work with this president
They'll take incremental wins. I think it is interesting. They're having these conversations, though. You said a deal maker
That's what President Trump ran on and his whole book the art of the deal ultimately Democrats
What do they care about most winning elections and they've got their midterms around the corner and health care still on the top of every?
American's mind right now so if Republicans can't get anything done if an alternative is maybe making some
incremental positive changes that can make a real difference
President saying you know what that that's my only choice right now
They're the citizens out there want to see something in time
They want to see it happening and and and maybe this is the way to make it get done yeah with Chuck and Nancy
That's it that'd be interesting
All right, so we're gonna. We're gonna check in with Rick. What do we got going on?
I know we got more storms happening over there. Please tell us yeah, we're watching hurricane Nate
Reconnaissance aircraft is in the right now the pressures come down just by one millibar that means it's not
Strengthening rapidly, which is really good news. However the winds have come up. Just a little bit
They found winds at 85 miles an hour still a category 1 hurricane
And moving very very quickly towards a central Gulf Coast somewhere between
southeastern, Louisiana
Around, Mississippi and Alabama and the panhandle of Florida, that's our spot that we're watching for a targeted landfall tonight
So it's coming very quickly Biloxi Bay in towards mobile
Those are gonna be the bays that a lot of the water will push in and we're gonna see potentially some very dangerous
Storm surge moving in there in addition to the rainfall
That's going to be coming rainfall totals are probably going to be worse the farther north you
Go actually storms gonna move very quickly
But then we're gonna wring a lot of moisture out once it gets in across the central Appalachians
So I think we're looking at a threat for some pretty significant flooding there
This is the official track all eyes red here in the central Gulf Coast around the Mississippi, Alabama line
and then it moves throughout the Tennessee Valley, Ohio Valley, and eventually exits out parts of the Northeast sets Monday into Tuesday, so
We're still we really like you Rick, but I'm gonna like when we're not talking to you me, too
Ends end in November, but we're in a very active season we might still have more after that one of the actus act most active
In many years active should I read the headlines or should I pass it to you guys?
Lines I want to bring you a serious one starting with a Fox News Alert
And the body of a fourth United States Green Beret
Previously reported as missing has now been found in the African country of Niger the soldier was part of the US forces the training unit
ambushed by terrorists
Also, this Iran's president is defending the controversial Obama, er nuclear deal saying
There is nothing President Trump can do to stop it according to state reports the sun or hani saying quote
We have achieved benefits that are irreversible
Nobody can rolled them back neither trump nor ten other trumps his comments
Come as president Trump is set to deliver a policy speech on Iran next week and may
Decertify that deal stay tuned for that one. It really sounds like one of our friends
and it is the end of an era the online instant messenger that started it all is signing off one last time I
Go online
Welcome and my breath catches in my chest until I hear three little words that
Is my favorite movie of all time
All right, AOL is announcing it will be discounting its pioneer chat platform a I M in December the program was first launched back in
1997 I just how people were still using it
All right now. What did the president mean by calm before the storm Alan Dershowitz is here to react next I'm excited for this
Calm before the storm
Find out
What's the storm?
Perhaps the most terrified of president Trump's incoming storm the media in here to discuss it and break it down for us Harvard Law Professor
Emeritus defense attorney and lifelong Democrat Alan Dershowitz professor, thanks for being here in the flesh
We appreciate it all right calm before the storm you wrote a book called trumped-up
You under you understand this president as well as anybody what does he mean?
I think what he's saying is the current status quo is unacceptable
Iran is gonna get a nuclear bomb in ten years if they comply with the deal
North Korea is only getting worse we cannot allow this to continue, so there's gonna be a storm what the storm is
Nobody knows, but he's warning both
North Korea and Iran they cannot continue on the current track that endangers
The national security of the United States and of the world, and he that's he didn't say it that eloquently
But he said it very simply and there's a calm before the storm, but the media doesn't care about Iran
They're not talking about Iran or that situation. They're talking about the fact that he winked and said you'll see well
I think he's not he said right from the beginning of his campaign
I'm not telling my enemies what my plan is all he's doing is he's issuing a
Warning and what?
He's saying is if you think you can just continue the way North Korea is continuing to test nuclear weapons
And if you think Iran can continue look the atomic International Atomic Energy Agency said they could not
Certify that Iran is not and I'll quote them
Engaging in activities that could contribute to the design and development of a nuclear explosive device. What the
Agency is saying is that?
Right now what Iran is doing is they're?
Developing methods for creating a nuclear bomb in the eight and 10 years right now
They can do anything they can develop rockets. They can develop intercontinental ballistic missiles that has room for a nuclear
warhead
But just they can't spin the centrifuges now as soon as they can start spinning the centrifuges eight ten twelve years
They will have an arsenal that will make North Korea
Seem like nothing hmm, so you have written a book against the Iran deal the president
I think it's up October 15th to recertify right or not this deal
He's being told by some of his generals to keep it in place. What is your advice to the president?
I want to do here my advice is not to tear it up but to
Renegotiate and to make sure remember Iran says in the deal quote Iran reaffirms it will never under any circumstances
Try to acquire develop nuclear weapons. We're gonna stick you with that and Congress authorized the President to take whatever a military action is necessary
Whenever if ever Iran tries to develop nuclear weapons now
That's not enough because they may not
Try to develop a nuclear weapon they may always want to be on the verge a month away so that we have no excuse
But that can't be allowed to continue
And so we have to renegotiate the deal to make sure they can't develop intercontinental ballistic missiles
They can't develop as the Atomic Energy says designs
capable of being used for explosive the president has to do that and I think he's going to
Advise trumped up the book. It's a great one Alan Dershowitz great to have you with us. Thank you sir mr.
