Fire burned areas of Southern California is not. Topper tracking the west coast storms now in the weather center. Yeah, once we get through tonight were going to be in pretty good shape. Another batch of heavy rain pushing up into las vegas. The storm itself is about to move on shore. But the good news after we get through midnight thats about it. The bad news another six hours of rain or so. Pretty heavy rain in los angeles up towards la canada fruit ridge and even some heavy rain about to approach san diego.

Unspeakable tragedy here and the woman who survived, presumably the mother of the six children who died, a career congressional aide to the baltimore congressman. Six of her kids were killed, three other children and the mother survived in this incident. Hah a terrible tragedy here. Rescuers this morning have discovered at least one of the bodies of the six missing kids. Five others presumed dead in the rubble behind me. Piles of smoldering debris. The rescuers say, there is no hope of finding any of these children alive at this hour. Theyre describing the grim work as a recovery effort. Theyll be going through the remains of the building by hand, one shovel at a time today in an attempt to account for all of the dead. The surviving woman, presumably the woman identified as katie malone. The congressman calls this an unimaginable tragedy. I talked with her family at length this and husband. They are still trying to wrap their arms arounder this. But we have made it clear arms around th
Syria, everybody enjoying the long weekend. Taking a look at the conditions and this, the business bomb, all that snow is bringing.

House majority leader eric cantor announced an hour and a half ago that hes stepping down from his majority post. A stunning defeat at the hands of a tea party backed economic professor. Thethe republicans will choose his successor next week. I said it three or four times now, an unprecedented loss. We heard from cantor about 90 minutes or so ago. What did he have to say . Reporter first of all he thanked his constituents for their support for his term of service for the past 13 and a half years. He was elected in 2001. He refused to speculate as to the reasons of his defeat. He said he would leave that up to the analysis. He would resign his post effective july 31st. None of the analysts saw this coming. It was a shock. Here is a seventerm congressman with a wellfunded war chest, 5 million. He goes down in defeat to an unknown College Professor who spent 120,000 to win the primary election. The first time in history that sit a sitting majority leader of any party has gone down in defe
Experience, that if unreasonable constraints have been put on this investigation, that he would expect us to hear about it in one way or another. And, you know, weve had all this interesting reporting about whether or not the investigation is constrained, whether its operating under unreasonable bright lines. I dont think we know, just as i dont think we know when this report is going to come out, we wont know until its done. But this is, this is a process that i feel like we have very little window into. What we have seen with the Washington Post and the New York Times, for example, what a difference every day makes. Every additional day the Washington Post or the New York Times seems to discover something we did not know the day before about Brett Kavanaugh. Yeah. And to the extent that this process is allowing for there to be more reflection, not just on the specific allegations against him, but whether or not hes the right person for this job both in terms of his temperament and hi
