Catherine herridge is standing by, but we begin with brian enes in manhattan. Reporter im in front of the Tribeca Film Center a Production Company cofounded by robert deniro. Im also next to a restaurant coowned by mr. Deniro. At 5 a. M. , nypd got a call from the mail room over a suspicious package that was addressed to deniro. That package was the nypd arrived on scene. They xrayed that package and inside found a device. That device they thought needed to be moved so they put it inside a total containment vehicle, the same one we saw yesterday outside cnn and time warner building. They moved in suspicious package to the rodman neck facility where the where the new york city bomb squad is and where theyll be expecting the device. Sources say the package sent to deniro an outspoken critic of the president looked identical to the nine others sent to prominent democrats over the last few days. A heavy yellow envelope, six American Flag postage stamps, block type lettering and a device inside. New yorks mayor spoke a couple hours ago. Listen. This is clearly an effort to terrorize people politically. To choose people for political purposes and attack them because of their beliefs. That is the kind of thing we have seen before in this city and we reject it and we will not be intimidated by it. Reporter nypd Police Commissioner james oneil said they believe the courier who dropped off the package at the cnn time warner building yesterday was caught on survey len video. They hope to be able to trace the origin of that package with surveillance video. Speaking of surveillance video, dana, outside the film center here, the Tribeca Film Center, there is a camera above the door. Maybe that will play a part, obviously, in this investigation. Also new yorks Governor Andrew Cuomo said he believes they dont have any information of any future packages but wouldnt be surprised if we get more, hear more moving forward. Dana . Dana thank you, bryan. The manhunt for the mail bomber is intensifying as the nypd inspects two packages sent to former Vice President joe biden. We continue with Catherine Herridge live in washington, d. C. Reporter thank you, dana. We are getting a first look at one of the packages sent to joe biden. Has the same manila envelope packaging. It has the same spelling on the return address for Democratic Congress woman debbie wassermanschultz. They used the Vice President s full name, which he rarely uses publicly. Just noting there on the side you see a postit note. Says additional postage was due on the time of delivery. Fbi confirming one package went to new castle, delaware, and a second going to wilmington. Secret service telling fox news the pack apblgs did not reach biden also noting the former Vice President is no longer a secret Service Protectee whose mail is routinely screened. Bidens Office Referred questions to the fbi and we are expecting a wide ranging briefing from new york authorities as well as the fbi about 90 minutes from now. Dana. Dana what direction, from your perspective, what do you know about the way the direction is heading right now . Reporter when we briefed congressman mike mccall, the republican of the House Homeland Security committee and he is getting regular updates given his position, he told us that investigators are using postal markings to narrow their focus, but he wouldnt get into specific regions during our interview. So i think thats gonna help investigators a great deal in terms of determining where they originated out of and narrow down that location. Have they been able to narrow down any locations so far or any purchasing locations based on what youve been briefed . Yes. I cant comment where, but, yes. Reporter one of those packages with mccaul said at least one package there was an embedded black and white isis style logo. He said based on his briefings, the logo was designed to confuse, not an indicator of a real terrorist connection. We reached out to the fbi on the isis emblem and postage tracking to see if we can get Additional Information or comment. Dana thank you. The search for a suspect and motive continues. Joining me now the the former joint Terrorism Task force supervisory special agent. Good to have you here, sir. Let me just get your updated thoughts here. Were 24 hours since the initial devices were found. More found today. Your thoughts . Thank you for having me, dana. Dana, right now the fbi joint Terrorism Task force is working tirelessly with our partners. Nypd, of course. Other local, state, county partners. All the evidence is being examined thoroughly. Leads are going out. The command post is up and running. 24 7 in the new york city field office. My old field office in the north division, im sure, will have a parallel command post because of the proximity to new york city as well. Not to mention all of the other citys where youre finding this. Hundreds of agents, Police Officers detectives are working this around the clock. Dana so many resources across local state and federal governments. Its incredible how many people are on it. I want to have you listen to former marine, retired marine joey jones. He was a bomb technician there. We had him on yesterday. Want to get your take on what he said here. What youre looking for is the same thing a Forensics Crime Lab would be looking for. It looks like theres electrical box with a serial number. Where was this sold . Who manufactured it . Then more obvious things, fingerprints left on tape. Dana authorities do have several packages now that did not explode. They have the evidence. What do they know today that they didnt know yesterday . And how much closer might they be to try and at least get a lead as to who is responsible . Well, were playing catchup right now. Again, we have more devices found today. But as your previous guest had mentioned, hes absolutely correct. All these packages are being examined not only by the nypd, the fbi bomb technicians are also working tirelessly around the clock. As he stated, looking for trace evidence, dna, fingerprints, bothed on the devices, on the packages as well. Any other type of evidence is also being looked at such as video surveillance. One of your guests mentioned theres a lot of video out there. Thats absolutely true. And lot of the videotapes are very thorough today. New york city especially has more video than ever before since the events of 9 11. So i feel that right now theres hundreds and hundreds of agents and detectives running tirelessly throughout the night and the day until they can track down every sinle lead that might bring this to a close. Dana we have very Little Information about who is responsible for it. Theres so many things we do not know. But would you agree with something i read this morning said the devices look rudimentary but functional. But they were also unstable and they could have gone off just by handling. Does that make sense to you . Yes, it does. It makes total sense. They do appear to be rudimentary. Obviously, im not plugged into the investigation anymore. It does not look like a professional device. In a lot of instances, if someone wanted those devices to go off, they would have gone off if they were truly a professional. Dana let me ask you about the president of the United States and local Law Enforcement, governor of new york, everyone, asking citizens to be vigilant but also to be patient. The goal of anyone who is perpetrating Something Like this is to illicit fear from people. What other advice might you have for citizens who are watching this unfold and who might be concerned . Absolutely. Vigilance is our number one asset we have. The fbi, the local police, state police, county, all the Law Enforcement rely solely from individuals popping up and telling us what is going on. Then calling us. Calling our hot lines. Theres no better piece of intelligence, human intelligence when someone with contact us and have either witnessed something they saw happen or an individual description. Once they give us a description, or they can place somebody at a certain time and place, then we can back track and take a look at video that may have caught that individual on camera at one place or another. Dana jack jupin, thanks for your expertise and for being here today. We appreciate it. So what new information do lawmakers have on this investigation .

Dana federal investigators are searching for a suspect after more suspicious packages were discovered today. President trump had this to say about it last night. Any acts or threats of Political Violence are an attack on our democracy itself. Such conduct puts the fiercely opposed and firmly prosecuted. We want all sides to come together in peace and harmony. We can do it. Dana im joined by texas republican congressman john radcliffe, member of the Homeland Security committee. I wanted to get your take on the investigation as it stands. Just your instincts adds to where this is going right now. Congressman, can you hear me . Might not be able to hear me, unfortunately. We are monitoring the president of the United States.

Dana Defense Department is gearing up to send hundreds of active duty troops to the southern border as a Migrant Caravan moves through mexico. Where does this stand . Reporter secretary mattis is expected to sign deployment orders authorizing hundreds of additional troops to the southern border. These images show some of the nash tkpwharld troops sent earlier this year by the president. The u. S. Official tells fox at least 800 additional active duty troops are part of the new forces heading to the southern border. The request for assistance from dhs came last night. Set to deadline october 30th. That is when those troops are supposed to be in place, a week ahead of the midterm elections. The exact composition of the troops is being determined by the joint staff here at the pentagon. They will not be infantry troops and will only be armed for selfdefense. They are engineers, lawyers and medical personnel according to pentagon official, and will be there mostly to support the customs and border that roll. Its not immediately clear where the forces will be going along the border but will be providing a supporting role. They will not be making arrests. Dana how do these numbers compare to what past president s have sent . Well, president obama sent 1200 National Guard troops and president bush sent 6,000 at the height of the iraq war. Earlier this year, President Trump sent about 2,100 National Guard troops to the southern boarder to assist dhs in border security. As in the past, the troops will be in a supporting role. The u. S. Troops will not be standing on the border with weapons drawn or acting in a Law Enforcement manner. They will be in a supportive role, planning and building camps for potential migrants crossing illegally. The only weapon theys would be armed with are more selfdefense. There are nonlethal ways they can arm the troops. The timing at the border by october 30 appears to coincide with the upcoming midterm electtions. Dana thank you for the update. Now for reaction on capitol hill on the explosive devices, im joined by john radcliffe. I think we have audio now, sir. Can you hear me . I hear you. Dana giving me a heart attack there. 2018 and we still have technical difficultie difficulties. Not only are you a congressman, youre on the Homeland Security committee. You are a former prosecutor and youve worked with fbi, secret service, local Law Enforcement, things like that. When you have a massive situation with suspicious packages being sent across the country, targeting democrats mostly, up to now. I guess all democrats up to now. I wanted to get your take on where you think the investigation is. Well, fortunately, dana, we have the best bomb technician and Forensic Experts in the world. So i fully anticipate that in hours, maybe days at most, well be able to narrow down exactly where these threats have come from, who is responsible for it and as we get more information, i think well be able to appropriately look at charges for whoever is responsible for this. Dana while we search for answers and we need evidence before we can make determinations, that hasnt stopbed people from both sides trying to stop people from the rhetoric. Listen to Governor John Kasich of ohio. He spoke about this. We now have a heightened sense of threats and panic and the caravans coming and theyre gonna be in your home. You rev people up. What happens . Somebody out there whos unstable does something crazy. Thats what i think were seeing here. Dana now, you had tweeted earlier today that these are shameful attempts at violence and justice must be served. You have not gone anywhere near talking about what might have motivated this person. Tell us why. Because we just dont know. Im not interested in playing the political blame game or getting into well he pushed me first. Look, i realize these threats are targeted towards democrats, but some democrat that have used some of the most provocative language. Corey booker and others have used some Maxine Waters have used some provocative language. It doesnt matter until we get more information about who is putting together these bomb Component Parts and then we can talk about it then. Dana youre standing in a hallway outside the hearing room. You had a closed door discussion today with the former campaign person who worked for President Trump. He plead guilty to lying to the fbi under the mueller investigation. Hes there behind closed doors with you. What did you learn . Well, hindsights 20 20, dana. Its hard to understand why the fbi opened the highest profile investigation in recent times into potential solution by a president ial campaign with the russian government that centers around a 28yearold policy adviser who had been on the job for a month. To this day has never been to russia and to this day had never met knowingly anyone associated with the russian government. Dana, you have more experience and exposure with the russian government than george papadopoulos. Dana yes. I remember it well, though it was a long time ago. I know that its behind closed doors. Will we be seeing more of him or do you think this will put an end to this particular component of the investigation . No, i think he wants his story out there. Hes already talked to the media. Hes trying to understand how he got involved again as a central player in something that he really doesnt know anything about. I think thats being made clear from his sworn testimony today. Dana thank you for sticking with us despite the technical difficulties. You bet. Dana cia director gina haskill meeting with the president today, briefing him on what she learned in turkey about the murder of jamal khashoggi. Its been reported that she heard audio of the killing.

Jonathan hunt is at the central mail facility in los angeles where Democratic Congress woman Maxine Waters was a target. Jonathan, the device found there is similar to the ones here on the east coast . Reporter yeah, thats certainly what we are being told by officials who are investigating the package that was found at this sprawling facility and caused the evacuation of hundreds of workers from this building last night. The packaging itself was the same, and inside similar components, plastic piping. Inside that piping, some sort of explosive material. Although officials are telling us they arent at this point clear on whether the device itself could actually have been detonated. Either way, congressman waters, who is 80 and represents californias 43rd Congressional District here in los angeles, says she will not be intimidated. Listen here. I dont know whether the bombs are real or not, but we should not crawl under the bed, close the doors, not go out, be afraid to go to rallies, whatever. We have to keep doing what we need to do. As young people say, i aint scared. Reporter now, congressman waters and President Trump have history in terms of rhetoric. In june, Congress Woman waters called on her supporters to confront Administration Officials if they ran into them in say a restaurant or gas station. In response, President Trump tweeted that congressman waters was, quote, extraordinarily low i. Q. Dana. Dana jonathan, how does the Postal Service handle threats like this. Is there any special things they started doing, procedures . Reporter yeah. Well, the fbi is the lead agency, obviously, in the investigation. But the Postal Service and its workers obviously on the front line. They are the ones who first have to handle these packages. They do have protocol. The usps tells us, in fact, that it has, quote, developed a comprehensive approach to protecting the mail system by utilizing a targeted strategy of Specialized Technology screening protocol and employee training. The Postal Inspection Service is one of the best kept secrets. Response teams are deployed nationwide. Their dangerous mail investigation programs. Theyre trained, those investigators, to recognize common characteristics of suspicious mail. They then bring in technology, such as portable xray machine to determine if a piece of mail found in a facility like this one is a threat. They dont want, for obvious reasons, dana, to give us too much detail on the procedure or protocol because that would tip off those who want to get around those procedures. They are saying theyre working every day to do what they did effectively in these instances. That is, of course, stopping those suspicious packages getting to their intended target. Dana they gave us just enough that we feel confident that theyre on top of things for us. For more on this, lets bring in just trusty, former Justice Department prosecutor. We call him our trusty lawyer. Take a listen to attorney general, former senator, jeff sessions, who was talking about this earlier. We condemn the actions that led to these activities in the strongest possible terms and are determined to make sure that we get to the bottom of it and justice is done. Dana theres not a lot Law Enforcement can say now as theyre trying to track things down. We do have new information that its possible the investigators are zeroing in on florida and new york and the possibility that one of the packages may have been mailed from florida. Your thoughts on that . Couple things. Obviously, thats still a pretty broad net. Not about to go door to door in florida or new york. It could be a good start. The big thing here is, all these packages are intact. You can get information from an actually exploded device. But to have all of these devices intact with packaging intact is huge. That can lend forensics such as dna, tracking materials that have been used to the bomb. One thing id add, dana, one package that i have seen a lot of online, which is the one addressed to john brenan at cnn. At least from the pictures, it doesnt look like theres post marks on the stamps. That would suggest theres an actual walkin here. Thats a different story. Dana as bryan llenas reported, there was a courier possibly a courier at cnn. There was also this idea, well, one thankfully the devices did not go off. There was a powder that turned out to be harmless. What do you glean from any of that . I mean, not a whole lot. Really the big related open question is whether there is an intent to have these things detonate. That is hard to know and probably fbi experts or atf if theyre using their lab to analyze devices, thats where youll start figuring out the level of sophistication. Is this a guy who is really a slick bomb maker masquerading as bit of a dummy, in terms of bad spelling on the packages . Or is it somebody dana does that tell you anything . It really doesnt. It could easily be something to throw investigators off the track. Like this is just coming from a dumb guy who likes boom sticks. The reality is, could easily be a very educated, sophisticated person with a political agenda that includes throwing it off as if theyre just some knuckle head that likes bombs. Dana what do you think about the timing of how quickly investigators might be able to find who is responsible . I feel almost superstitious on behalf of Law Enforcement when i say this, but i really think this will be fast moving. Famous last words when we come back a year from now and wonder what happened to the case. I think theres a real good chance that theres forensics, film, tracking of the components that went into the devices. That lends itself to a pretty quick move. Dana if convicted, tell me about the type of punishment this person could be looking at. Well, severe. Theres a lot of federal statutes that are at least in place. Some of thats gonna depend not just on finding the suspect, but interviewing him. Figuring out if theres online or other forms of media that have been used, letters that have been written. Theres the possibility of using federal charges such as attempted murder of an official, which would apply to Maxine Waters. It could apply to some of the others. Theres also a long often used statute that basically reads like its an under registered firearm statute. Thats ten years per device. Dana the attorney general is talking about the full weight of the law, presumably theyre looking at all of those things as they get prepared to hopefully bring this person in and start the prosecution. This could be a long sentence. It probably is somebody at the intersection of Mental Health issues and criminality. But the criminality is so severe that i would expect they could mete out some pretty serious justice. Dana jim trusty, our trusted lawyer, thank you. President trump calling out fake news again blasting a New York Times report that chinese and russian intelligences have been bugging his i phone. Doug, this is a rare occasion where the trump administration, Chinese Government are in agreement when it comes to chinese spying . Reporter yeah, thats right, dana. Chinese foreign minister just accused the New York Times of sparing no effort to win the Academy Award for best screenplay. It just adds to evidence that it is fabricating fake news and if theyre concerned ab eves dropping they may want to use mobile phones made by a chinese manufacturer. For absolute security, quote, stop using all communication device and cut themselves off from the outside world. Thats pretty much in line in which the president said, i only use government phones and have only one cell phone. Story is so wrong. The times story cites several current and former specials speaking anonymously. It says aides have repeatedly warned mr. Trump that his cell phone calls are not secure and that russian spies are also listening in. It says the president is casual about security and notes he once left a cell phone behind in his golf cart at a golf cart setting off a scramble to find it. Dana . Dana what is the process, if they are found, by which foreign governments would intercept phone calls . Pretty much the way they would intercept any phone call. Calls are easily listened to as they travel to and through cell phone towers and satellite dishes. The president also issued secure phones that have no ability to take pictures or download data. The story also notes because of mr. Trumps long time concern, the time uses the term paranoia, aides do take comfort in his discretion on the phone. Dana . Dana doug mcelway, thank you. We may have differences, but this should be no reason to resort to these types of acts of intimidation and potential violence. I sincerely wish that donald trump, though, would have said these things previously and regularly. Dana john brenan criticizing President Trump for his response at dialling down the rhetoric.

An official tells our corporate cousins at the wall street journal some of the packages are believed to have come from florida. Well speak to a former fbi special agent about how investigators traced the packages and hunt for the bombmaker. Thats top of the hour on Shepard Smith reporting. Well see you then. As part of a Larger National effort to bridge our divides and bring people together, the media also has a responsibility to set a civil tone and to stop the endless hostility and constant negative and oftentimes false attacks and stories. Have to do it. Dana President Trump calling for unity and civility amid a criminal investigation into explosive devices mailed to high profile political figures as an nbc wall street journal shows political divisiveness is a serious problem. Lets bring in karl rove former White House Deputy chief of staff and fox news contributor. Americans cant agree 90 of americans cant agree on anything, but they can agree on this. Can we figure out a way to agree to fix it . Everybody has a responsibility here and if we jump back into our corners and start pointing fingers at the other side, were not gonna get to where we need to. Dana what do you think of the criticism of the media . Well, look, the media does have a responsibility to sort of set a tone in their coverage and to be the impartial umpire. Sometimes they arent. And we count on our major newspapers and the three Big Television networks to sort of set a tone of impartialialty. They havent been doing a particularly good job. Dana neither have political leaders on either side. John brennan, one of the packages was addressed to him, cnn, but he writes this on twitter. Stop blaming others, saying mr. Trump. Look in the mirror. Your inflammatory rhetoric, insults, lies and encouragement are disgraceful. Clean up your act, try to act president ial. The American People deserve much better. I dont think the president is trying to silence anybody. I do wonder about this idea that we should jump to conclusion about who might be behind these packages. Exactly. Blaming Political Violence on somebody for having said something that might have nothing to do with this seems very irresponsible. Lets let Law Enforcement, Postal Service, the fbi, Law Enforcement do their job. I suspect theyll do it in quick order. With all due respect to mr. Brennan, hes got a role to play in this. He is the man who accused the president of being guilty of treason which last time i saw was a capital offense. Lets tone down the rhetoric from everybody and focus on our own actions and spend less time pointing fingers. Dana it is a thing that 90 of us agree on. Good news is weve been in bad places like this before in our history. Dana we have. Thats true. If you add fuel to the fire, you accelerate with social media, you can lose peace pretty quickly. Weve done so in our life time. Many people remember the late 1960s and early 1970s when the country was pulling itself apart over the war and vietnam and urban unrest. Its happened five or six times that weve been here. Theres a brilliant book out by joanne freeman. We vaguely remember there was one famous incident where some governor of massachusetts was caned by a South Carolina congressman. She details a decade of violent behavior like that. Dana we have to learn from history. Let me ask you about indiana. Two weeks from the midterm. This is a state where joe donnelly, the incumbent, has been holding steady. The indy politics poll has him down four. Is this the race to watch on Election Night . Its one of several. It will be an important race. Broad has been improving here as republicans. Remember, this is a state trump won by 19 points. So his Approval Rating nationwide is 47 in the nbc wall street journal, 44 in gallop. It is higher in this state. More people approve than disapprove of the president. As the president s rating improved and republicans made a decision to come home, this is a state with more republicans than democrats, donnellys gotten into difficulty. Dana why is it so close then . Hes an incumbent. There is a power of the incumbents. There was a little damage left by the republican threeway primary. Not a lot compared to other states. Elections are a process, not simply an event. The process of consolidation of the republicans, democrats got behind donnelly. The republicans have been getting behind braun late. Lets see how it plays out in the remaining 12 days. I think this is one to watch on Election Night. If i were a betting person, id say this is the third most likely republican pickup. Dana the president will go to indiana talking to the future farmers of america organization. Really gonna talk to farmers about their concerns on tariffs . I think thats part of it. Its a big farm state. They dont do as much soybeans there, which is what china has been punishing us on. The president s going to go there to reassure. Dana all right, karl rove, thank you for being here tphrbg studio and everything. In the fabulous studio. Dana kind of big for me. You need a lot of space to roam. Youre a colorado girl.
