I am jon scott. And i am heather nault for if jenna le. Some are expiring at the end of the year. The house is expected to approve the bill despite it would benefit one in every taxpayers tis getting a cool reception in the u. S. Senate. Mike emmanuel has the latest on that. Reporter many law makers consider this must finish legislation to prevent a massive tax hike. The democrat said he is trying to improve the tax extender bill and will vote on it today. Widen did not offer details. Some of the house expressing disappointment that president obama vetoed a package. Look at the work that senator kemp and reid did to make a bipartisan agreement and make it permanent for job creation. Unfortunately the president disagreed. Can and now the house will act this week. Reporter looking at the house floor, the law makers debating and discussing the one year extension that affect 2014 tax returns. And the question is whether the senate will try to go bigger. A short time ago, president obama expressed support. As a general rule, we are open to short term extensions of many of those provisions to make sure that all of you are able to engage in basic tax planning for the next couple of years and are not having to scramble in tax time trying to figure out the rules. Reporter the extension is not a long term solution. They are expressing the hope that perhaps in a new congress it would open the door for massive tax reform. They are trying to avoid a massive tax hike in the end of the year. They have trouble getting long term tax solutions. Reporter kicking the can down the road. All right. Mike, thank you. We are all scrambling trying to figure out the tax code. It is the worst. It really is the worst. One conflicting report that the woman detained in lebanon is a l baghdadis wife. An iraqi official said the woman is not the terror leaders wife. They join us live with the latest. John, can you explain this one for us . Reporter it is going back and forth, heather. Lebanonese military Officials Say the woman is a l baghdadis wife and admitted to it. But an iraqi official denied that claim, saying that the iraqi woman is a sister of a terrorist suspect currently held in iraq. The woman and her young son were caught trying to cross using fake ids ten days ago. The hope that was or is al baghdadis wife it would help track him down. There were reports last month that al baghdadi was killed or injured in a u. S. Air strike. That was not confirmed. And the pentagon said iran is peopling isis in eastern iraq and iran officials said iran is offering military consultation to its neighbors, but there are no indcaution that the reports are not true and iran is bombing iowa sis positions in iraq and he add ad that any cooperation with strikes with america is out of the question for iran.

The political world is waiting to find out if Hillary Clinton will run again for president. She is considered a front runner for the democratic fomination. A new piece said any other democrats that challenge her will face a uphill battle. This are potential for her campaign. Each of the emerging challengers appeal to a Democratic Party that clinton struggled with in the past. And unlike clinton, each has distinct issues to build a campaign around. And joining us is senior politics reporter for u. S. News and world report. David, we have seen this movie before. Hillary clinton was the shoe in candidate. And is there that same potension this time in i dont think so. The candidates that are toying with running, none of them have the historic a pole that barak obama did whenemerged on the scene. One candidate that could tap in liberal angst is Elizabeth Warren and she said over and over again, shes not running. But one democrats and first big name candidate being jim web. Who announced an explore tore committee and he can hire staff. And he is in the race. Buts lot of this has to do with jim web trying to make a point. It doesnt necessarily mean he is successful against Hillary Clinton, but shes not in the race yet. And so they can happening as well. Persony and martin ounderstand. This . Either one of them that Hillary Clinton does not or prove a threat to her . In theidacy of Bernie Sanders, he is a socialist and he appeals to those of the left of Hillary Clinton and those who believe that hillary is too centrist. And Bernie Sanders is not going to be the democratic nominee. And he knows that. He just cannot of the a without the deidate. Governor o miley is one of them. And a president ial tracker and he did the most trafficking to early caucus state of iowa. It is how he runs in hillary runs the case. We heard that the Virginia Governor that you will make a decision in sect days. A lot of these guys, well see what they did and well get more of an indication. There is a lotve on the republican side. And a bunch of potential candidates and the gop looking further than the governors . Right. I was in florida two weeks ago and obviously governors are saying they are best suited for the white house. Governor christie said this and Governor Scott walker said this. I talked to trept lott and orip match of utah. We have to go with a governor and run someone outside of washington and that is going against some of the colleagues in the senate. Rand paul, ted cruz, and senator marco rub rub. There is a line drawn. But there is a pull to the republicans around the country to the governor. There is at least six governors and with some weighing this. Republicans say to the current person in the white house. He never had to negotiate with a legislature or run anything including a small state before. Thats what the governors like christie and walker will say to rapped paul and ted cruise. We tried it with obama and how did it work out. Kaif, thank you. Thank you, john. And fillions was taxpayer dollars down the drain and questions about lavic spending. You probably dont want to hear. I dont want to hear. Well tell you anyway. And dangerous and the mudslides. If you are going to commit a crime. If this is not a hint. Americans drink 48 billion bottles of water every year.

Wow [ narrator ] on a mission to get richard to his campbells chunky soup. Its new chunky beerncheese with beef and bacon soup. I love it. And mama loves you. 25000 for a Holiday Party and a thousand a month for coffee and we are talking about the fancy kind, too. Thats what one government funded nonprofit spent thanks to a lop hole in the law and it is coming out of your pocket and today, the House Committee is asking what on earth happen. Doug, thank goodness for you. Clearly the folks in washington rrnt. This was money to be spent on specific research. That is for neon. 62 planned observatory to study climate change. Auditors told the House Science Committee that neon spent 25000 for a Christmas Party and this happened a month for premium coffee service. And 150 million for Construction Cost and 112 for lobbying the contributes. These suspicious taxpayer activities were not details in the audit begin to the inspector general. To his credit, principal auditor invoked the whistle effect to make sure congress and americans are aware of the money spent on improper activities. Reporter the democrats rejected the audit and noting that the leaders of nissan were not there. It is immature and incomplete and lacs balanced. It is impossible to have a talk on the over sight issues. Reporter James Collins told fox news, that is neon inc. Spent the money in the guidelines and the law. This is not the first time that the National Science foundation was found in waste of spending. A 20 11 report showed why the same teams dominate march madness and a million to study how quickly parents respond to trendy baby names. Still trying to figure that out. They really study those things. Thats what colbern found. It reminds me of the guy with a daquiri in the tub. And a major coastal storm pounding california. Look at the scone in San Francisco. Damaged cars and downed trees in the city by the bay. And other areas in the golden state are braising for mud slides. Our meteorologist is live in the fox extreme weather center. Rick .

We are going to so the areas that might see six or sen inches of rain. And so great news for the sky rez vors up. And so they can help with all of the farming in the Central California area. This is good news. We need all of the rain. Hopefully they will bring and fill it up. You bet. Speaking of weather. Police are giving Mother Nature credit are for helping to catch a robber.

And thanks to dna evidence. Scientist are 99 percent sure that is his skull on the screen found buried benegotiate a parking lot. And the answer opening ups new mystery surrounding the British Royal family. We have a professor in the history of leister. It is good for you to join us. We told our viewers about this before. Theeological dig underneat a parking lot. And now you are confirming that these are the bones of richard iii, tell us how . The dna is part of this. We put all of the evidence together. Archaeological and historical evidence and the spinal deformity and put it together in a analysis. What this comes up with as you said. Nine. Probability it being richard the third. We are confident that these are the remains of the king. He died in the battle. Last british king to die in battle and battled in a mona ster. And henry eighth ordered it knocked down. Henry eight wanted money and he said i will take that and dissolve the mons terries and a privatization scheme. He took ownership of them. It is bought by someone called ha rick. All of the stones were used for buildings and the house was built there and what we are looking at where the church of the pryory was. And he was buried in the choir of that church and that was part of the garden. And that meant it was not built on over the centurys past. Did you find any other skeletons or is he the only one in no, no. This is a building, and the monassenmacher mona stery and stone coffins as well. Richards grave is unusual. You can tell that it was clearly done in a hurry and thats obviously because he wasnt given a state funeral if you like. He was deposed king. Shakespeer said he murdered his young nephews that died in the tower of london. Will you be able to prove that happen . No, i think people would love us to do that you cannot tell from rich arards dna or anything with the skeltal remains a, what his personality was like. We cant tell whether he was a murder or nice person. He might have been nice. And we cant tell if it is the blood of the princes is on his hand. That is a different historical drama. You solved one mist row and opened another. Tell us about that. We look at two types of dna that is inherited, one through your mother down the female line and one through your father and passes from fathers to sons. Now again quickly richard iii had no living sons and so in order to trace the dna, you have to go up the generations to edward iii and back down to dukes ofsomer set and earls ofsomer set. They are from jon of gaunt who is the son of edward the three. Edward iii is important. On one side of that triangle are the yorks claim to the throne and the other is lancast upon are ryan side of the trinity river. They fight each other. If the break in the top of the triangle. Somebody was not the legitimate heir to the throne, thats what you discovered boiling it down . We are not saying that that is the case, but that is it a possibility. We dont know where the break occurred, but close to the apex of the triangle, that is the case. We have a painting and portrait of richard iii and it looks like that may have been accurate. Fascinating story and thanks for sharing it with us. Okay, thank you. That is something else. And could affect the lineages. Oldest case of using dna to prove someones identity. Well be right back. A trial under way for tiffany stephens. The connecticut woman accused of paying the handyman 5000 to kill her husband. He made a secret recovering of stevens that showed the 39yearold mother demanded that he go through the murder. Listen to this. You are hired to murder somebody. Njust do it. Just do it. And well bring in dan and tom. Dan, let me start with you. Is this sort of a nail in the coffin in this ladys case. On the face it is damming. The defense will argue it may be the prosecutions or witness who is not credible maybe he edited together or the husband who was the target or tried to frame her and they will say it is not real. If it is it real, it is tough to say it is innocent. Does that wash in absolutely. If i am defending the case, that tape is only credible as the person who made it. What do we know about the person who made it . He has a rap sheet thicker than the phone book. 22 convictions. Nsecondly woe, ye who has two masters. Hes playing husband against wife. And how does any jury find an individual like that credible. If he manufactured the tape and possessed it. If hes not credible it is not credible. Did she target someone like him feeling like he would go along with it. Normally if you have a long criminal record you are not believable. If you are looking to find someone to kill someone. Go with someone with a criminal record. That is the prosecution theory. She thought he would be able to get someone to kill her exhusband. What about this, he said tiffany, the mother tried to force him. And said she would kill him, the handyman and his children if he didnt go through with it . The prosecutor can seek to prove their case in whatever matter, if that is the argument made at trial, i dont so them having success in this case. They would have a difficult time to get a jury of 12 people to agree that this 22 prior conviction, and this hany man was in trouble of the troubled spurned wife going through the custody case. This has to be hard for the jury. There are oddball players. She was a drug addict and maybe that affected the recording and maybe she did not know what she was saying and she may have been given drugs. They have to create reasonable doubt in the mind of one jouror and that is a hard argument to win on. You would have to say you didnt know what you are doing. You didnt. And only one in on tape. And that is hard for the defense to win on. As the story goes. The handyman gave the tape to the exhusband and he went to the cop and thats how it came to. And he is of course alive. Tell us about the money. Hes worth 50 million and that is a motive. That is a huge elephant in the room here. This is a wealthy couple. And the witness motive is relevant in trial. The defense is going to harp that the guy fears for the guys wife or concerned for his own familys safety. Hes here for greed and looking to profit off this. And hes not a credible witness. And she could be looking to profit off of it as well. The money would go to the child in the case of the husband died. And then there is motive and defense. And there is motive of the victim to frame her and that will be a big issue. And complicated and as you point out, thats what the attorneys want to do. Raising reasonable doubt with the jury. Dan and tom, thank you for your expertise. And john . Another nation may be joining the fight against isis. Iran denotices that it began air strikes against isis inside of iraq. And survivors of one of our nations darkest days gather to remember shipmates on the uss arizona. I did get scorched and i just, had a desire to stay alive and i did. I went to get a gun and found out i didnt have finger prints and you can imagine how bad my hands were burned. Hi, everyone. I am gretchen carlsson. Break out the whiskey. The summit about to begin. Wouldnt you like to be a fly for this one. And a body found in the dumb waiter of a restaurant where a student worked. And twitter getting tougher on meanies. People who tweet me get the blonde airhead under wraps. I will read more on the top of the hour. A group of true american heroes back together now more than seven decades after the horror of pearl harbor. That thrust the u. S. In world war ii. They were on board of the uss arizona that lies in the bottom of the harbor that day. Now their 90s, they gather to toast their shipmates and have plenty more reunions ahead. My wife changed every year to last year for the mi tais and saving for next year. I dont think this will be our last. What an the attitude. Sunday marked 73 years since the attack that changed the world. 900 soldiers are entombed in the wreckage and nine survive today. New reports out today that iran started strikes against isis against iraq. Here at home, the Defense Department will not confirm or deny them either. We have no indication that they are not true. That the iranian aircraft have conducted air strikes in the last several days against isil targets. In eastern iraq. Major general bob scales is retired and a fox news analyst. I see you smiling there, what is going on in a couple of things, my military friends and i are amazed that 35 years after the american embargo with iran, iran is flying our fighter planes with skill and dropping bombs on isis targets. This is the middle east and how can you make it up . It is fairly clears that the iranians are doing them under Iraqi Air Force control in the province away from the flight patterns from the strikes that the u. S. And Coalition Forces are making from bag dead to northeast syria there is a clear air spagz point. And without question, healther they are fleeing for the iraqis. And you believe that it is in fact happening and we are not in it right now. And it seems that you are saying it is okay. That our guys and gals are all right. We are doing it in separate regions, right. The iraqis are building the separation between the two zones if you will. And they are careful not to allow the to sets to fly in to each other. And a bomb against isis is a bomb against the enemy. I am hearing coordination whether we are admitting it or not it sounds like the case. It is indirect and second party. We tell them where and when they are flying. They do deconfliction and separate the two areas of attack to make sure we dont bump into each other. One of the key questions what does iran get out of this and is it a wink, wink . We have iran not directly but take care of the problem on the ground and that we cant fully and effectively do because we dont have air controllers on the ground, does that help to buy iowa ran additional time and are we trading those things is what i am asking . That is a great question. There has to be a quid pro quo at work here and perhaps the iowa rannians with a wink saying to us in the bargaining table. Well take care of the eastern provinces and provide support to the iraqi forces and somewhere down the road, you, america, have to pay Something Back to us in the Nuclear Program and that is i think frankly a deal with the devil. These are the questions we have to be asking and wondering who ends in the end . Thank you, heather.
