Im saying saving through anying association throughout the economic you will save 300 billion a year but that doesnt make sense. Reporter they also pressed him on his immigration policies. You have to be able to have some flexibility, some negotiation. Now sometimes you ask for more than you want, and you negotiate down to the point. Reporter then they called him out for flip flopping. You change your tune on so many things, and that has some people saying what is his core . Megan, i have a very strong core. I have a very strong core.

Trump is staying in michigan today to campaign ahead of this states primary which is next tuesday. Diane eastabrook, algaza strip, detroit. The latest job numbers are out today, and they are positive. But it appears while you might be able to find a new job, you will likely be paid less. Nobody wants to hear that . No. Lets take a look and break it down. The economy added 242,000 jobs last month. That blew away analysts expectations. Most economists were only looking for around 190,000. The unemployment remained unchanges at 4. 9 . And what was encouraging about that is the number of people actively looking for jobs, that actually went up. However, there was a big sting in the tail with this report, and that was average hourly wages. They dropped 0. 03 to 25. 30 an hour, and when you look at the type of jobs that were created, a lot of them were in health care, and jobs that dont pay very well. So while the jobs machine is still humming along and really going at gang busters in the last month, is still the problem of wages. Were in the thick of a president ial race, how is this going to play out against that. You are likely going to see democrat take credit for the jobs machine, because it has been impressive, and poorly paying jobs are better than no jobs at all. But you cant get around the fact that there is still a tremendous amount of slack in the labor market. And one trend is longterm unemployment. People out of work for six months or more. You can see right there in the line around last june it starts flat lining, so we still have around 2 Million People who are longterm unemployed. And combine that with the fact that you have 6 Million People who are working parttime jobs who would rather be working fulltime. And there is something we call real median household income. And thats really disturbing. The last year we have data for is 2014, adjusted for inflation, the real Household Incomes are lower than they were in 2007. And when you hear all of this mud slinging in the debates, and a couple of brood brush strokes that say, yeah, we need to get wages up, but where is the real plan . All right. Some of those numbers are going backyards. Exactly. Patricia thank you very much. The u. N.

The United Nations is admitting a sharp rise in sexual abuse allegations by its staff. A new report says there were 99 alleged cases in 2015. That is up from 80 the year before. Most allegations are against peace keepers. International police and u. N. Staff have also been accused. Daniel lak is at the u. N. With the details. Reporter what this report does, and everybody anticipated an element of naming and shaming, what it does is provide a lot of break down as to who these accusations were against, which countries, which missions, and it really does tell you that a lot of the problem is concentrated in just a few missions. The Central African republic accounts for almost half of the accusations. Also the mission in hey ta, the mission in sue sudan, and darfur, they are all named. And the democratic republic of the congo has the largest number of troops, seven, with accusations against them. And also civilian police from the european union, and two police from canada. And there is sort of an annex as well that says what is actually being done about this, and there are still a lot of final actions pending, but some people have been sent home, some have had their pay docked. Some have had criminal charges filed against them in at least one case. So this is a bit of a start to some sort of accountability. And what were hearing from critics is some sort of external monitoring of foreign u. N. Missions to see that this sort of misconduct doesnt go on. Thats the criticism that has come up.

Reporter its a question that could decide the fate of the Baltimore Police officers on trial in the freddie gray case. Can officer William Porter be both a defendant and a witness . Porter is the first of six officers charged in connection with grays death in april 2014 to have gone on trial. He wasnt directly involved in the arrest, and was not driving the van where gray suffered fatal injuries. None tlesz, prosecutors said he could have put a seat belt on gray or called for attention. His trial ended with a hung jury. His retrial is set for june, but before that, prosecutors want to call him as a witness in the trial of the other officers involved, including Caesar Goodson who faces Second Degree murder. Federal court has had cases where indicted defendants were compelled to testify. Reporter they argue that because porter has been granted immunity in exchange for his testimony, he should testify. Anything he says in the other trials cant be used against him. But his defense team wasnt buying it. They argue forcing porter to testify against the other officers puts him at risk of being called a liar by their defense teams and that it would not protect him from a potential perjury charge. He says that guy is going to go to the doctor. He is not going to make it through the booking process. Thats what they want at whites trial. They believe porter was truthful when he said that. Sergeant white said that never happened. So sergeant whites interests are materially adverse to officer porters interests. Reporter they also argued that porters testimony could turn jurors against him and endanger his right to a fair trial. It is the defenses position that if porter is a defendant, he is a defendant. See if you can prove it beyond a reasonable doubt. But he is not a witness. Witnesses dont have skin in the game. Reporter without porters testimony its not clear whether the other cases can go forward. Even the judge acknowledged this is a case in unchartered territory. The other officers trials have been put on hold while this appeal plays out. The search continues for a rape and murder suspect in mississippi.

Im a very strong supporter of the second amendment, but this bill does not follow the priorities that i have, and most other iowans have. Right now in 20 states an 8yearold can both legally buy and possess a shotgun. You believe as you said in the second amendment, and worked in a gun store for five years, but you think this measure goes too far. This measure takes away all age minimum, so one year olds, and two year olds, and three year olds, and to my best knowledge there are not handguns that fit the hands of those size of children. Federal law states a person under the age of 18 cannot possess a handgun, only ammunition, but certain exceptions are granted with the written permission of a parent. Los angeles has pledged millions to combat a growing problem in the city, homelessness. One builder has come up with his own solution, tiny houses.

Fighting, shooting, cutting, and im not with that. Im about peace. You know, i have more peace of mind out here, than i would have in one of those shelters. Reporter but Officials Say tiny houses only prolong homelessness. They are not sustainable resources. Theres no heating, plumbing, or electricity. Its just a box. You can paint it and call it a house, but it is still a box. A box. I wish he could wear my shoes for one day. And i bet he wouldnt call it a box any longer. It may be a box to him, but that doesnt help him or it doesnt help no one. Everyone needs somewhere to live. And i felt like, oh, that was nice. Summer says he will keep building. What is home to anybody . So somebody that has nothing, it may as well be a castle. Reporter but for the tiny houses to really take off, the city will need to get on board.
