Join us for live coverage here on cnn. Erin burnett outfitter starts right now. Breaking news. Donald trump says the racist card is being used against him as he finally admits the president was born in the United States and says hint started the birther conspiracy. And as clintons lead disappears Michelle Obama hits the campaign trail coming out swinging and donald trump wont release his tax returns because hes under audit. Is he . Where is the proof . Lets go outfront. Good evening im erin burnett. Out front the breaking News Donald Trump speaking for the First Time Since admitting president obama was born in the United States slamming democrats at this hour saying they are the
ones playing the race card. What they do is they spear opponents and you look at her history. And they question policies. And they talk all the time about racists, racisracists. The only word they know. They used it on romney. They used it on everybody. They use it. When they are in trouble they always pull out the racist word and they are in very big trouble i have to tell you. Earlier today after fife years of questioning the president s birthplace including a new interview released yesterday donald trump called a press conference to make what he called a major statement. Hillary clinton and her campaign of 2008 started the birther controversy. I finished it. I finished it. You know what i mean. President barack obama was born
in the United States, period. Now clinton of course never said anything such thing. Today she fired back at trump. For five years he has led the Birther Movement. To delegitimize our first black president. His campaign was founded on this outrageous lie. There is no erasing it in history. Barack obama was born in america, plain and simple. And donald trump owes him and the American People an apology. Now, of course just to remind everyone, donald trump didnt push the birther theory just one time. Not even two times. He said he finished it. But he did this over and over again for five years. Here is just some of what he said. Something on that birth certificate he doesnt like. Oh my gosh. Im starting to wonder myself whether or not he was born in this country. One of the greatest scams in the history of politics and history period. His grandmother in kenya said oh no, he was born in kenya and i was there and i witnessed the birth. Now shes on tape and i think that tape is going to be produced fairly soon. Barack obama should end this and e he should provide the public with a birth certificate. A lot of people feel it wasnt a proper certificate. I walk down street they are saying please dont give up on the whole thing with birth certificate. Who knows about obama. His mother was a u. S. Citizen. Born in kansas. Was he natural born citizen who knows. Who cares right now. Jim acosta out front in miami where trump just wrapped up his last event of the day. Jims been five years. Why today . Why today . That is the question we should point out donald trump is speaking right now at this rally in miami. Hes not addressed the controversy so far but he is trying to take back that
falsehood hes spread for years that president obama was not born in the United States. And Campaign Advisors have told me they have been wanting to get this out of the way for a while now. But donald trump did just the opposite today. Nice hotel. Today donald trump once the leader of this nations Birther Movement finally came out and said he accepted the truth that president obama was born in the u. S. But in doing so he told more whoppers. Hillary clinton and her campaign of 2008 started the birther controversy. I finished it. I finished it. You know what i mean. President barack obama was born in the United States, period. Trumps claim that Hillary Clinton is responsible for one of the nations worst political smears is false. Same for a statement that he
ended the birther controversy. That is not remotely true. As trump was considering a run for president five years ago he brought it up. Why doesnt he show his birth certificate . Time and again. Ive been told very recently anderson that the birth certificate is missing. Even after president obama release you had it in 2011. A lot of people dont think it is real. The president was not impressed. I was pretty confident about where i was born. I think most people were as well. As for clinton she slammed trumps attempts to blame her as a disgrace saying in a series of tweets trump has spend years pedaling a racist conspiracy aimed t undermining the first African American president. He cant just take it back. Barack obama was born in america. Plain and simple and donald trump owes him and the American People an apology. And trumps birther reversal
as hes trying to reach out to African American voters a key voting block that overwhelmingly supports clinton. It was a surreal scene. Trump spent more time promoting his new hotel where he staged the event and listened to military leaders supporting his campaign, including one retired general who has always questioned mr. Obamas citizenship. Thank you. Its very simple. We all warriors here. Question why hes changing his mind now, ducking out as reporters for shouting for answers. Reporter and before he could say the words birth certificate donald trump did start off another controversy here at miami. When he talked about the issue of guns and Hillary Clinton. Here is what he had wbr id wbr4131 to say. I think that her body guards should drop all weapons. They should disarm. b
right . I think they should disarm. Immediately. What do you think . Yes . Yeah. Take their guns away. She doesnt want guns. Take their lets see what happens to her. Take their guns away. Okay . It would be very dangerous. Reporter and in the words of reince priebus, the rnc chair who was on the stage with donald trump earlier tonight, donald trump is not always politically correct. Truer words have not been spoken. Reince priebus lending wbrid wbr4501 his support to donald trump on what was a very big, important day for his campaign. He tried to put the birth certificate issue behind him. It is unclear that is what happened at all erin. Thaw very much. And to the Clinton Campaign. Zef zeleny is there. Clinton campaign thinks the birther controversy is going help them in a couple of ways. First and foremost this Obama Coalition we talk so much. Largely African American voters. Hispanic, young voters that propelled the president to victory in 2008 and 12 is supportive of Hillary Clinton but not as enthusiastically. They believe this whole trump controversy will help in this regard and the early indications are right. So much anger from members of congress. Black leaders, other, who are meeting in washington this weekend. And they were following this trump fuse very careful. They say they are motivated to go back to their communities and remind voters what donald trump has done. In their view try and take away, you know, the story of the First American black president here. So this is very personal to them. And the second way is this. Advisors have become worried that donald trump has started to seem more acceptable to some voters. Weve seen him rise in polls nationally and in battleground states as well. That is a key objective for the Clinton Campaign to make him not look acceptable. They believe by saying things like this, by having this attention on this birther
controversy, which is ridiculous and everyone knows it is not true. They believe that makes it look like the donald trump of old. As opposed to the donald trump of the future. Thank you very much. Jeff and out front now our panel. I want to get to that specifically in a moment. But first bishop vaughn. Donald trump came out and said president barack obama was born in the United States, period. Was that enough . No. Absolutely not. It is not enough. And im also positive that everyone within the African AmericanCommunity Feels the same way as i do. It was very dismissive. And very disrespectful. We really expected him to say more. We already knew that our president was an american
citizen. So we were expecting more. Pastor scott, dismissive and disrespectful . No. He stepped up to the plate, said what he had to say and walked off. Hes not going grovel or beg or cry. And you know what and people need to stop whining so much. Stop whining. Yall want some cheese with that whine. Whining so much over this birth certificate stuff. It is over. It is done with. Quit trying to resurrect old stuff. Trying to play the trump card as the race card and bring this stuff up and make something out of it that it is not. It is over with. He shut the door. Okay. I believe hes born in america. Now lets move on. Of course this is not something that trump had brought up and let go. He brought it up again and again and again including multiple times this year. Yeah. This is not something that just can be dismissed as past news because his advisors want it to go away because there is politically inconvenient for a president ial election. Donald trump has been selling this swill as the conspiracy
entrepreneur for five years. Hes continued to sound the notes throughout the campaign and even in todays statement he lied well telling the truths are by saying it was Hillary Clinton who started it personally trying to deflect and then he ended it. So let me ask you on that. You have looked into this claim. Absolutely. And what have you found . . My reporting back in wing nuts these conspiracy theories have different tributaries that lead to them. But what i followed was the source of the first lawsuit and the person who took credit for bringing it to the lawyer. It was a clinton supporter out of texas named linda star. She was furious about the state of the primary like many Hillary Clinton supporters. She brought the suit to phillip burg and they launched it right before the democratic primary. Sure. Not the Clinton Campaign. These were hard core hillary supporters who were furious she lost the primary. It percolate and then picked up
by conservatives and they have been carrying it ever since. Lou dobs mainstreamed and it then donald trump did more than anyone else to keep it alive. And does he then as Hillary Clinton says owe an apology . No i dont think. Because it was not racial. It was political. It was political in origination. It was political as it moved forward. It was simply a political maneuver. Used the same maneuver against ted cruz, questioning his citizenship. The democrats are playing on the emotions and emotionalism and the sensitivesties of black americans because they are afraid donald trump is making inroads into the black community. They are scared. And were going to talk about that very issue. The black community and the racist part of this in a moment but i want to play first gloria the breaking news of what donald trump said moments wbr id wbr7720 ago at Hillary Clinton and guns. Here se he is. I think that her body guards should drop all weapons. They should disarm. b
right . Right . I think they should disarm. The immediately. What duo you think . Yes. Yeah. Take tear guns away. She doesnt want guns. Take their database lets see what happens to her. Take their guns away. Okay . It would be very dangerous. Echoes something he said that got him in a lot of trouble last month. On the Second Amendment. Look i think donald trump wbrid wbr8090 was off script this evening. And maybe he wanted to change the subject. I dont think he wants to change the subject that way. But that is donald trump probably not reading off of a teleprompter. I think what we saw today and its been alluded to before was an active political expediency. And the issue of birtherism and trafficking in these ridiculous these conspiracy theories is what got donald trump onto the
national stage. And i think some of his political advisors who believe that it could derail him in his quest for the candidacy. And i think that is why you have heard adviser after advisor come out and say, including mike pence, say that i believe the president of the United States was born in hawaii. And then finally they wanted to button it up. And they wanted to button it up because they didnt want it to come up in the campaigns. And donald trump was not willing to do that in his own way because he wasnt willing to apologize. Or to say i made a mistake. And he just came out there with one sentence. And you cant delete the history of what occurred over the last five years one, short sentence. And as a result, they have extended the controversy rather than ending it. All right. Well we have paused there. Thanks to all. Next harry reed calling donald trump a human leech. Trump firing back and mocking
reed. Willth wait till soo you see what reed is saying tonight. Plus is trump is really being audited, where is the letter . Lets see it.

Donald trump is nothing more than a two bit racial arsonist. Donald trump is doing everything that he can to divide. Hes a hater. Hes a bigot. And hes a racist. Trump has acted in a way that suggests hes a bigot. By innate definition, donald trump is a disgusting fraud. We will not elect a cheep bigot of the United States of america. Manu raju, person after person for 40 minutes. You just spoke to the top democrat in the senate. What did he have to say about all this is this. Harry reed, the Senate Democratic leader, not known as someone who minces words. In 2012 he went after mitt romney day after day falsely accusing him of not paying his taxes. But today when i talked to democratic leader he called trump a liar, a phony, an absolute fraud. Said hes one of the most immoral people ive ever had to deal with in politics. And he also let lose when i asked about trumps claim that
Hillary Clintons campaign started the whole birther controversy. Do you think criticism of obamas citizenship questioning whether or not the president was a United States citizen, is that racially motivated in any way . Of course it is but forget about that. Why has he let this drag on for years . And then the man has the audaci audacity, the ability to lie like no one ive ever seen. Hillarys the one brought it up. There couldnt be anything further from the truth. Hes a liar. And i dont know if we should give any credence to anything the man says. Remember, harry reed working really hard to tie down tickets to trump. Arguing they are one in the same. And when i asked about polls showing the Senate Majority possibly out of risk and Hillary Clinton losing he sharply dismissed them calling them silliness and he said donald trump will, quote, never be elected president of the united
states. Erin. All right manu, thank you very much. I want to bring back pastor scott and. I want to start with you pastor scott. Members of the Congressional Black Caucus. Lets go through some of the words here. Racist, bigot. Disgusting. Fraud. These are some of the words they used today. Do they cross the line . You know what i saw a lot of trump haters calling trump a hater. I saw lot of pots calling the kettle black. I saw them hurdling insults at someone they say they dont like him because he insults people. You dont ever have you know, you cant take an offense as justification to her allow insults yourselves. So they are guilty of the hypocrisy they accuse trump of. Stop whining Congressional Black Caucus. Stop crying and whining and move on and find Something Else to talk about in this election. Rather than keep talk about old
stuff. Listen it is trumps progtive to believe what he wants to believe. If he wants to believe trump was born on mars that is his prerogative. Move on. Moving on this issues. Person after person, productive . The right thing to do . We are here in washington d. C. , erin, at the democratic black caucus. We represent basically all of the policy makers and the po politicians that represent predominate think constituency of african American People. And yes they were speaking the heart of their constituency. This is how we feel. It may not be accurate. But they represent a constituency and they said how the people feel. These people are talking to their leaders. They talking to their policy makers their senators their congressman. They are talking and so they are repeating what the people are saying. They are absolutely in line and accurate. I tell you, it is imperative
that we do not let donald trump perpetuate this lie. Hillary clinton did not start it. He started. On the issue of birther on the issue is he a racist . Do you come out pointblank and go to that microphone and say hes a racist a bigot, a disgusting fraud. Im not a priest but everything he said to me is racist. Everything he said is bigoted. And let me be very clear about this. There was a time when black people could not walk freely without showing their free papers. And donald trump pushed the sitting president of the United States, the first African American to stand on a stage to reveal his birth certificate. What donald trump is saying is that he is not one of us. And when you dove tail with that with his message about make America Great again that is why this is offensive. The message of he is not one of us began with the Clinton Campaign. Before everyone goes crazy. I dont want to relitigate that right now. The Washington Bureau chief said it began with Sid Blumenthal who asked okay. Since you brought it up i will give you a chance to respond. Close clinton advisor said Sid Blumenthal personally called him to pitch this story. I have no idea whats thats about. Hillary clinton did not do it. [ inaudible ] she has not questioned whether or not the president at United States she she did [inaudible]. The fak of the matter is donald trump perpetuated this movement is a precursor to his campaign, which is not at all inclusive. So when so if the Congressional Black Caucus wants to get up there and say this man is racist, hes bigoted. Let him diffuse that. And so far he has not. Just a moment ago speaking on that stage within the past hour donald trump talked specifically about people saying hes a racist and here is what he said about it. The racist word, it is the oldest play in the democratic play book and americans have had inform of it. We get it. We get it. Hes saying as the card. They are playing the card on him. This is so ludicrous to me. E we invited him to come and speak at the naacp. He refused to come. We also invited mr. Trump to come in attack to the black womens agenda this morning, today. We were here. We wanted to hear from him. Mrs. Clinton, my candidate, accepted the invitation. Why would mr. Trump not come to these very, very, very important
moments with african American People where he can continue to engage them . If he loves us if he wants us to vote for him, then why doesnt he come where we are . He was just in flint a few days ago and again he had an opportunity to speak about the water crisis there. Instead he begins to bash mrs. Clinton with this birther issue. He had to be stopped by an African American pastor. He does not respect us. He does not honor us and he does not come near us to speak to us and engage us. That is why we continue to say that he operates as a racist. Thank you all for being with me. Next donald trump says he cant release taxes because hes under audit. Is he . And Michelle Obama hits the campaign trail and is she now the secret weapon for Hillary Clinton . Welcome to opportunitys knocking,

Second Amendment and hillary wbr id wbr18622 clinton. I think that her body guards should drop all weapons. They should disarm. I think they should disarm. Immediately. What do you think . Yes . Yeah. Take their guns away. She doesnt want gubs. Take their lets see what happens to her. Take their guns away. Okay. It will be very dangerous. Up front now Senior Advisor to the campaign. Maria u your reaction. I think this is up in there in the category of what wbr id wbr18992 he said about the Second Amendment, people taking care of secretary clinton. I think it is vile. I think it is putrid. I think it underscores something that the American People have looked to expect from donald trump, which is this kind of divisive, hateful rhetoric. b
i dont think it does anything to help him reach additional voters which i know is something that his campaign is desperate to do. I think it brings him back to make sewer that his message is under scored with his core supporters. That is what they like. Like political crack for them and hes giving it to them. Of course if you want to distract from the birther controversy he does it. So now his supporters do crack . Okay. Are they deplorable, desperate and crack. She was being sarcastic just like when she said president obama received the importantmvp isis. Do you think he got an actual award. He didnt. Sarcastic. It is friday night. There is still a little room for levity but the actual message is this. Hillary clinton is against the Second Amendment and against guns and hes saying guns are needed to protect us. And shes using armed u security
just as he is. Let me finish. Here is bottom line. Guns are an important part of society. That is what donald trump was speaking about. He was being sarcastic when he made that comment. Everyone can agree about it. Im sure you will whip yourself into a frenzy but there is nothing here. We dont make jokes of someone shoot guns away. Lets see what happens because im sure something dangerous will happen. That is what he said. At all. Is what hes saying. Okay. Everyone calm down. Lets be very clear about the principle he was trying to put forth. You have a candidate who is surrounded by guards and secret service, clad in guns and guns to protect her and yet that same candidate has questions the effectsy of the Supreme Court saying the Second Amendment means that single mother can own
a weapon to protect her family. Young cant surround with men clad in guns and then advocate taking away of for thirty years. Were trying to normalize behavior and language that should not. That is the problem. Rising in the polls that talk about gun control, we understand getting repeealing is second saemt a massive hurdle. That is not what were talk about. Stop that. I never said that. Dont do that again. What i said was what we talk about is having reasonable gun control. That is what Hillary Clinton is talking about. But when we start normalizing language like, well, lets take
guns away from those that secure her and lets see what happens. Shes surrounding herself with people with guns, protection for what, 40 years . And. Way to point out the irony that does not when donald trump says when donald trump says that Hillary Clinton is again the Second Amendment that is another lie. So where are you on the Second Amendment . Coming from the candidate who has been deemed by most Fact Checkers as the most dishonest candidate in [ inaudible ]. In this president ial, frankly in our modern history. Im just and secondly. [ inaudible ] sarcasm. He made light of it. You know what . This is a serious president ial race. Im asking a serious question where is Hillary Clinton
[ inaudible ] i can tell you she absolutely supports the Second Amendment. Her proposal says additional laws to protect gun owners to protect [ inaudible ]. Did i say that. Thats desperation right there. [ inaudible ] the conversation is very simply. What weather he should have just said what he said the way he said it. That is what this conversation is about. [inaudible] because there is not one thing he said in this campaign that the two of you havent gotten whipped up in a frenzy about and said [inaudible]. Come on bated breath listening to every syllable that comes out of Donald Trumps mouth waiting to turn everything into a controversy. Next Michelle Obama on the
cha campaign trail today. There were those who question and continue to question for the past eight years up to this very day whether my husband was even born in this country. Plus trump says he doesnt want to release his tax rushs because hes under audit. Where is the audit letter . Eturn because hes under audit. Where is the audit letter . Energy is a complex challenge. People want power. And power plants account for more than a third of energyrelated carbon emissions. The challenge is to capture the emissions before theyre released into the atmosphere. Exxonmobil is a leader in carbon capture. Our team is working to make this technology better, more affordable so it can reduce emissions around the world. Thats what were working on right now. Energy lives here. So we know how to cover almost alanything. Ything, even mermutts. 1940s aqua music burke and we covered it, february third, twentysixteen. Talk to farmers. We know a thing or two because weve seen a thing or two. We are farmers. Bumpadum, bumbumbumbum
we had to think a little more seriously about saving money for the future and for the kids and for their college funds. We thought, well this airbnb is actually a great way to pay those extra bills. Every bit of extra money helps these days. We have a Retirement Fund of our own and i take a draw on it. I dont want to take too much either because i dont know what life is going to bring to me. I get to keep 97 of my rental price. The extra income i get from airbnb has been a huge help. Airbnb has helped me so much financially especially starting my own business. San francisco is such an expensive place to live. The way people work and travel is changing. The guests are now able to stay longer, stay five days, enjoy another day in San Francisco and spend more money in the neighborhood. My guests are able to extend their stay and spend more money on activities and restaurants. The extra income that i get from airbnb has been
a huge impact in my life. First lady Michelle Obama making her debut on the campaign trail, confronting donald trump for repeatedly questions whether her husband barack obama was born in the United States. There were those who questioned and continue to question for the past eight years, up through this very day, whether my husband was even born in this country. Well, during his time in office i think barack has answered those questions with the example he set by going high when they go low. Is she the Clinton Campaigns single best surrogate . Michelle kosinski is outfront. It is a first in this campaign season. Michelle obama, solo on the trail. This time is really bittersweet for me. It is a time of real transition for me and barack and our girls. My husband is gonna need a new job. Her message in this battleground state of virginia is recapping Hillary Clintons accomplishments qualifications and repeatedly slamming donald trump. If a candidate is is erratic and threatening. If a candidate traffics in prejudice, fears and lies on the trail, let me tell you, that is who they are. But the first lady has long been a reluctant campaigner even when her husband was running. She quickly learned every word draws scrutiny. For the first time in my adult lifetime im really proud of my country. Makes headlines, even cartoons. But today the confident first
spouse seems more than willing to be herself. Turn up for what . Dancing on ellen, poking fun at herself. You are the president and i am your boo. Speaking her mind. I want to go to target again. Its worked. Her Approval Rating over 60 . By far the most popular person in her party. Beating out both candidates, her hu husband and bill clinton. She electrified the convention in july. I wake up every morning in a house that was built by slaves. History has proven the make a big difference. Campaigning hard. Johnson won. In 2004 laura bush was seen as george ws secret weapon, humanizing him and making a personal case for protecting mesh mpl Michelle Obama could
help project the energy and enthusiasm needed for Hillary Clinton. So why hasnt she within out there far more . They would want her to do it more but shes got do what comes natural to her and where she feels authentic. And we heard her hit donald trump pretty hard there. That surprised some people. But clearly even as the concerns of fist lady, the time has past to keep things 100 positive here. But we can expect to hear more on the trail from her as well as the president. White house sources tell us next month hes going to be on the trail one to two days every week. Hes going to focus on states where his help is needed the most. North carolina, ohio. Florida. They are both going make the case that there is much at stake and you cant take anything for granted. You have to get out there and exercise your right to vote. Michelle, thank you.

voters arent buying what hes saling. They dont believe anything he says and certainly you dont believe the fact hes not going give us his income tax returns because there is an audit on every person of consequence. Says it doesnt matter if hes in ab audit or not. Made a fehr point there. Of course harry reid lied last time around when he said mitt romney paid no taxes. Still where is the proof donald trump is being audited . You heard it throughout his campaign. Why donald trump wont release his taxes. I cant give them. I mean nobody would let you give them when you are under audit. Im releasing when were finished. As far as the tax returns, as soon as the audit is complete. But that is not what he promised to an Irish Tv Network in 2014. If i decide to run for office ill produce my tax returns absolutely. I would love to disagree that. This week. Pressure mounting interest trumps own party. I released mine. I think we should release theirs. This letter saying an irs audit from 2009 and forward are ongoing. That is as far as the campaign will go says Trumps Campaign manager. Will donald trump release anything from the irs proving hes you should audit . I dont know. Why . Are you calling him a liar . Well were taking his word for it. So is there real harm during an audit to release tax forms or letters from the irs . An irs attorney for six years and now represents taxpayers against the irs. There is always an letter informing the taxpayer. There is always a letter informing the taxpayer. That letter doesnt usually have any detailed private information. As far as the audited tax returns themselves, he says while he would not recommend trump release every page. He could release the first two pages, simply showing income and taxes paid. Given all the heat hes getting, would you advise him to release the first couple of pages . I think if he feels it is a matter of public disclosure, it is a matter of transparency, then i dont see much harm in releasing the first two pages of the return. You use the word transparency. Yes. Is that important here . I think it is important in our public discussion of potentially president ial candidates. The irs says it cannot comment on individuals. Legislation introduced just yesterday aims to challenge that. House representative, democrat from california calls it closing the liars loophole. It is the perfect lie if someone has the depravity to look the American People in the eye and just lie about a pending audit. The irs cant say anything
either way. The congressman does admit that the legislation doesnt have much of a chance of making it through the republican controlled house and we did reach out to the Trump Campaign to see if anything had changed on the taxes. The campaign issued the same statement they issued before erin that this was a routine audit and he would release the tax returns when that is complete. Thank you. And now our legal analyst, criminal defense attorney. Paul. There is no law who says he cant put this letter out. He would have a letter. Yes he would. But your point it would be very specific. It wouldnt just say hey were looking at your taxes. Given the scope and diversity of his Business Operations it would be shocking if he were not being audited or one o ever his businesses but the letters are rather specific. They would say, for instance, were going to rook at your charitable contributions. You have submitted back up for these items. All of a sudden that would trigger a press story. Wait a minute the irs is auditing his charitable
contributions. The reason for the audit would be in the letter. It may be they dont have any valid grounds to challenge the deduction taken but it would create an issue in the middle of a political campaign. And i would tell you no lawyer would advise a client to release tax returns while an audit is ongoing. You just wouldnt do it. The safe way if you are a lawyer is tell the client listen keep it quiet. One other thing, trump is the target of all kind of lawsuits all over the country. This would be a pot of gold for people suing trump. That is another non political reason you wouldnt release it. And pointed out. They would advise a client not to release under audit. Up next a former fbi agent missing in iran
with my moderate to severe crohns disease,. I was always searching for ways to manage my symptoms. I thought i had it covered. Then i realized managing was all i was doing. When i finally told my doctor, he said humira was for people like me who have tried other medications,. But still experience the symptoms of moderate to severe crohns disease. In clinical studies, the majority of patients on humira saw significant symptom relief. And many achieved remission. Humira can lower your ability to fight infections. Including tuberculosis. Serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers,. Including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions,. And new or worsening heart failure. Before treatment, get tested for tb. Tell your doctor if youve been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if youve had tb,. Hepatitis b, are prone to infections,. Or have flulike symptoms or sores. Dont start humira if you have an infection. If youre still just managing your symptoms, ask your gastroenterologist about humira. With humira, remission is possible. Tonight republicans pushing for a law to ban the United States from making Cash Payments to iran. That would make what the white house did illegally when it gave iran nearly 2 billion in connection with the release of five american hostages in the iran deal. President obama addressed the nation when the hostages came home notes that one american is still missing. Tonight retired fbi agent and contractor missing nearly a decade. His children are asking for
answers. I asked what the government is telling them about their dad. You met with some of president obamas top advisors. What did they tell you . They told us they are working on the case and they are not going to rest until hes home safe us to. And we were hoping that this is going to be the case. And with this limited time window with iranian elections that the urgency is now more than ever and that they are doing everything they can to bring him home. When you first heard that the United States had paid iran nearly 2 billion in connection with the release of the five americans that came home earlier this year. Your father obviously not among them. How did you feel . We were devastated. Absolutely devastated. It was very hard. There was a lot of the
leverage. And that is one of the avenues that they could engage with the iranians and that was a lot of money and obviously we would have liked to see if there was any kind of connection with that. Then that should have been been more than enough to bring my dad home. But unfortunately that didnt happen. Were just going to keep moving forward and seeing whats the next steps to get him home. Its been nine and a half years that hes been without basic human rights and until he is home it will never be enough. And we are absolutely devastated that he was just not part of that. If your father happens to be somewhere where he sees you both, as you are speaking now, what would you want to say to him right now . It is always, we love you. We will never stop until you come home. You have so many people here fighting every single day to bring you home. And we love you very much. And you have several grandchildren that cant wait to meet their grandpa pa
