Investigators continue to come through wreckage after Helicopter Crash crash landed on top of a new york city skyscraper. Witnesses describe the moment of impact sending panic through the city. There was a boom. When the helicopter had the building it felt like somebody is next to you and giving you a shove. Shannon smoke rising from the office building, the pilot was the only person on board that helicopter in the only person killed. He is now identified as a former volunteer fire chief, tim mccormick. According to the New York Post he was trying to fly to new jersey when he reported problems flying through fog and rain. Video posted on social media shows the helicopter flying erratically over the east river shortly before the crash. Authorities have not confirmed if this is the same chopper that went down. Practically a white house yesterday. Dont know why any helicopters were up in that mess. More breaking news, the manhunt underway after an offduty california sheriff deputy is shot in the head. Investigators are trying to work out if he was targeted. The la county deputy walked into a Fast Food Restaurant in on brock, california. The gunmen following him inside, firing at him while he waited for his suit. When i heard about bank i dont know what it was. I see customers running everywhere. That is when i go over and check. The gunmen seeing the surveillance pictures calmly walked out of the restaurant. He was seen driving off in a white suv, the one you see here, the deputy is in critical condition. The Trump Administration responding to doubts from critics after landing and immigration deal with mexico. Donald trump saying he is standing down on his tariffs threat as long as mexico does its part. What the president is saying this morning. Donald trumps firing back at critics casting a shade at the deal he struck friday with mexico that stopped tariffs from hitting the United Statess other neighbor. As of yesterday they are back on Donald Trumps good side. When you think of it mexico is doing more for the United States as of now than congress, specifically the democrats, they seeking asylum in mexico while the application process plays out. The president says tariffs could still become a reality if mexico doesnt live up to that end of the bargain but mexicos Foreign Ministry made clear it has no plans to come in allies migrants crossing through mexico en route to the United States. Mexico would never do that, much less this government, just because somebody wants to move that doesnt make them a criminal. The secretary of state came to the president s defense hitting back at critics like Chuck Schumer who called the deal warmed up leftovers. The countless hours amounted to a waste of time, i can so you the team at the state department believes this is an important set of agreement. Shannon later this morning at 10 00 we will hear from the acting secretary of Homeland Security who is slated to testify before the Senate Judiciary committee on all of this. He told fox news a solution to the Immigration Crisis will require not just cooperation from mexico but major changes to us law so that is congress. Thank you, great to have you join us this morning. Much more on this coming up. Donald trumps immigration crackdown, democrats grasp at straws to impeach him and charlie hurt says this contrast doesnt bode well for Congress Heading into 2020. Ticket they like today. We can debate whether the mexico deal is going to work or not a what caused it but the president dealing with Something Like trying to resolve the issue on the border with mexico by getting mexico involved and policing a much shorter manageable border at their self as opposed to our larger border at ourselves. Juxtaposes two things, the house carrying on with their nonimpeachment impeachment and donald to resolve an Issue Congress has failed to fix for 40 years is not a good look for democrats or congress or anybody in washington for that matter. Also called to testify in the house hearings is watergate witness john dean. The former white House Counsel for Richard Nixon says that he sees parallels between the Mueller Probe and the watergate findings. In many ways the Mueller Report is to donald trump what the socalled watergate roadmap was to Richard Nixon. Reporter republican slamming his credibility before the house Judiciary Committee. This committee is now hearing from the 70s and they want their star witness back, they have a godfather here. You instructed Michael Cohens lawyer to keep information from republicans, to obstruct committee work. I didnt quite phrase it they took your advice. Mister dean a Cottage Industry of accusing president s of acting like Richard Nixon. Dean assisted with watergate coverup pleading guilty to obstruction yet he was called by democrats to a. Today on hearings on instruction and collusion claims against the president. What do you think of that . Democrats desperate keep their focus on the russia report but Lindsey Graham says the Senate Judiciary committee quote Robert Mueller and the whole house. Theres nothing going on in the house about protecting the 2020 election, they are trying mueller has spoken, found no collusion between the Trump Campaign and the russians after two years, 20, 000 million, 19 lawyers and 40 fbi agents. He decided not to bring any charges regarding obstruction of justice because there is no crime here. The bottom line is what the house is doing is politically motivated, trying to destroy the Trump Presidency and i can assure you that we are done with the Mueller Investigation in the senate. They can talk to john dean until the cows come home, we are not doing anything in the senate regarding the Mueller Report, or hardener infrastructure to protect in 2020. Donald trump agrees with democrats russia did try to influence the 2016 election the there is no evidence that any votes were changed as a result. Leaving the House Freedom caucus weeks after thing donald trump had committed impeachable offenses. According to congressman jim jordan this was a mutual decision with the caucus. We had a meeting with the caucus, the chairman, talking about that, we disagree with the assessment and we strongly disagree with him. We will be talking about the situation. He insists his departure is voluntary saying he did not want to be a, quote, distraction for the caucus. The good story we are following, former baseball star david ortiz is back in boston after being shot in his hometown and American Republic this as we get inside look at a resort where a fourth american tourist has died under suspicious conditions. Griff jenkins is covering both stories for us this morning. How dangerous is it there . Reporter a reminder of how dangerous it is in the Dominican Republic, we didnt mention this yesterday when we first got here, 24 hours ago our producer pulled off the road to get directions and he was mugged at gunpoint, he is okay, lost his wallet, that is all and not harmed but it is a stark reminder of the dangers in the investigation we are pursuing here and we got a look inside here at the hard rock hotel, wanted to see the minibar because Robert Wallace in april dropped dead after drinking scotch from the minibar and you can see in the video from the minibar that the bottles are simply 4 5 of liquor and very easy to manipulate or tamper with either intentionally or unintentionally and that is of great interest not only to the family of Robert Wallace but also a gentleman, david harrison, who died a year ago at this same resort. I spoke to don mccoy. His widow wants more answers, she would like to know whether there is a toxicology report on her husband david. We will look into that on the heels where yesterday we spoke to you about an hour from here where the woman from pennsylvania Miranda Warner and the maryland couple and cynthia day lost their lives at the end of the night. A lot of questions but as you mentioned at the top of your introduction david ortiz, who is a legend here on the island back in boston, flying back last night. The red sox helping every stop to get him back, he is in stable condition in boston. We will have further treatment but questions are certainly rising here as to whether or not the baseball star might have been targeted. We talk to people on the island, they are remembering the kid that first started playing basketball interned the baseball but back in beantown you have assistant general manager Edward Murrow remembering his friend and what he has done for that city. Of how big an impact it has had in the city of boston and he is obviously an icon on the Mount Rushmore of boston athletes but he is the guy in the Dominican Republic. He is more famous than any president. People think of the Dominican Republic they think david ortiz. Investigations into these deaths into the shooting of david ortiz. They made at least one arrest in the ortiz shooting, right . Did i read that right . That is right. A gentleman on a motorcycle drove the shooter to the nightclub and they have the shooter in custody at least for now. We will wait and find out more later today. Shannon appreciate it, a lot coming up. 12 minutes after the top of the hour. In god we trust. Atheists want it gone from our money and the Supreme Court just ruled on that. The Justice Department striking a deal to turn over documents related to the Mueller Report to House Democrats but what happens now . James bruneau here to break it down for us. Im pleased we reach an agreement to review some of the evidence underlying the Mueller Report including interview notes, firsthand accounts of misconduct under the credible evidence. This is to support the striking a deal to turn over some documents related to the Mueller Report and House Democrats. And return now, court action will be taken against william barr for now. It, defense attorney and former prosecutor, david bruno, joined me to break it down for us. Good morning and thank you for joining us. A little surprised the doj took this step. I applaud them for transparency but it the same time from a law perspective the special counsel statute itself shows what william barr had to provide and it was only a summary report. There was no obligation on him to provide the actual report or underlying document so because the statute is out there i would argue that preempts any obligation to provide more information but it looks like you get what you want but be careful what you are asking for because i dont think that will strengthen the argument. Shannon part of the doj letter to chairman nadler says among other things review is broad in scope, multifaceted, intended to eliminate open questions regarding the activities of us and Foreign Intelligence Services as well as nongovernmental organizations that individual. What does that mean to you . That is different. That is the investigation investigating the investigators. It is a broad scope what they are saying and it will include fusion gps, christopher steele, not just government workers. Definitely a key as to where the investigation is already. That investigation is going on. We have the Inspector General report that is going to come out soon, the fisa abuse. A lot of things are going on. Shannon into what you were saying with the doj warning democrats be careful what you ask for. The Mueller Report is a comprehensive report. What are you getting from underlying documents . I have faith that mueller did the right thing and looks honest and included everything in that report. What else can he say . Shannon the second topic, House Democrats kicked off this week of mark impeachment, words that stand and what do you think of what happened yesterday . The other, that is what it is. You unbelievable they would bring him in. He is a conflict, who better to talk about obstruction of justice than the man who put it together . He is also disbarred. He is not a lawyer. Shannon why in the world . Democrats are smart people so why would they do that . I would think they want to associate john dean with the Trump Administration. They couldnt get don mcgann and that is a legal fight obviously whether they can get him in but they bring him in for that reason. They are trying to associate john dean with the Trump Administration. Shannon why since he is discredited and clearly not a trump fan . He is all over social media. Not only that but you bring in two msnbc contributors. Former obama appointees. Trying to stay on this topic. Ive been watching them for years talk about obstruction of justice and their disdain for this administration so i dont think it was a fair hearing to get the public a real understanding of the Mueller Report. Shannon a lot of theater. Thank you for joining us, appreciate it. We will see what happens.

Such an honor to represent the country here today, the biggest race in the world and being invited to come to the white house. The job simon did when you saw that, that was talented. A lot of courage. I wouldnt do it. Heather he gave the president a helmet as a thank you gift. He should have gotten that card and given it away. That would have been awesome. In a few hours acting dhs chief will urge congress to do its part to secure the border after mexico struck a deal with the us to stem the tide of illegal migrants. Will Congress Finally step up . Brandon judd joins me with more. What should he say to congress . The main message is we are putting Vulnerable Women and children in the hands of cartels. Our lacks laws, lacks policies. If they want to protect these women and children they will do what they need to do, step up from Border Security, change the asylum loopholes so we dont have to worry about what the cartels are, how they are exploiting these children by stifling them, how they are treating these women as they work their way to mexico, we have to protect that vulnerable population and of congress doesnt step up they will be children in these conditions, the way they get here and are held on these shelters and die, Different Things happen to them along the way. Lets look at these numbers, the latest apprehension numbers, the inadmissibles at the southern border, 144,000, nearly 2700 family units each and every day. It is unbelievable. And from el salvador and guatemala and honduras and mexico, 6000 troops to the guatemalan border. The worst Border Security crisis we ever faced in the United States. I was at ground 0 of the earlier crisis in the 1990s, this is far beyond that because we are seeing a lot more people, a lot different dynamics, people from the african nations and cuba and all over the world so we havent stepped up and have to do our job. What donald trump has done, to put troops on their southern border, we have seen that before. Illegal immigration drops exponentially when the Mexican Government gets involved. Shannon what donald trump did with the tariffs and the tariff standoff with mexico, we have sound from the chamber of commerce, weapon i think tariffs wasnt the right thing to do. Listen to what they have to say and we will get the president s response. The weaponization of tariffs, the increase of threats on our economy, our farmers, manufacturers, consumers is going to hurt our country and it creates uncertainty with our trading partners. Heather here is what the president had to say. I want to say to the United States chamber of commerce if we didnt have tariffs we wouldnt have made it deal with mexico without tariffs, we would be captive to every country. Heather do you agree . Economists are getting it wrong. They have to look at how much money we will save in our paychecks if we stop illegal immigration. We spend billions of dollars every year in social welfare, healthcare, we spend so much money, the irregular taxpayer doesnt see it at the Cash Register and that is what the chamber of commerce is trying to strike fear in the American Public. The reality is if we stop illegal immigration your taxes will go down in your paycheck. Heather it is not Just NationalSecurity Issues but an economic issue, talking about the numbers that have grown exponentially. That is why we have to get under control. We have to put american the public first, not people from another country. We have to put our citizens first. That is what donald trump is trying to do. I wish the American Public could understand all he wants to do with secure the border for the safety of the citizens of this country and that is what he is trying to do. Heather talking about illegal immigration, not legal. The time is 20 minutes until the top of the hour. They risk their own lives to save thousands of others.

It is nearly out of money, thousands of claims still pending. The chairman of the towers foundation, thank you for joining us. What do you expect will happen today . That we pass the bill, it is a bipartisan issue, both sides should come together on this. Democrat or republican, that building, firefighters and Police Officers ran into those buildings to save peoples lives. They didnt ask what their religion was, they didnt care how they voted. They saved lives that day. Afterwards there was a great recovery effort made because of so many lives lost. They were on that power and they were told it was safe and it wasnt. So many were dying ever since. Heather this breakdown of the 9 11 Victims Compensation fund. Only 2. 37 billion of the 7. 37 billion remain, 21,000 distributed, approximately 20,000 claims pending and the new claim awards were reduced 70 to stretch out the funding as long as they could.

This thursday, a detective being buried, mike sheehan, he was a husband, head kids and they are still paying the price for what happened on september 11, 2001. We have to make sure. The last sunday of september, we carry the flags of all those who died on 9 11, First Responders but we also carry pictures of those who died on 9 11 related illnesses. It is a terrible tragedy that keeps on taking so many lives. Our government should step up and do the right thing. Both sides of the aisle have to come together and pass this bill. Heather you look at the numbers, First Responders who have died in 9 11 related illnesses continues to rise. 188 firefighters, 166 Police Officers. Not included are the family members. A direct impact to so many others and it spirals down which you know yourself. I have friends with 9 11 related illnesses. The father has cancer, in a wheelchair. It is incredible what this has done to so many families afterwards. The lease we should do is take care of them and make sure they get the medical needs. Until they pass away. Heather if the funding increases today and you expect that to pass, what happens . Will we be back here in a number of years and have the same problem . If they make it to 2090 which is one of the things on the table, that ensures everyone with illnesses will be taken care of. Hopefully i dont have to come back here again and talk about this issue other than saying lets not forget the lives, that is why i want to come back and make sure we dont forget the families who are paying a tremendous price.
