Up the coast and when it gets here, ginger said the biggest concern is the storm surge, thats the case here. I talked to the mayor earlier. He told me the same thing. 10 to 15 feet storm surge well inland. 10 to 15 feet of salt water moving at incredible force both in the beginning of the hurricane and sweeping back behind it. The winds picking up already. We saw a giant tree go down next to us and debris everywhere and once the winds reach about 100 Miles Per Hour, gusts up to 125 as we just saw in that map t model that just came out. Thats going to be sustained for quite some time and theyre expecting considerable damage. I want to head back to amy robach in south florida in miami. Amy, you had 100 mile per hour winds in south florida as well . Reporter we are in the worst of it right now. It is certainly strong winds here, up to 82 Miles Per Hour gusting now. Hurricane forced winds here in downtown miami. I wanted to point out that the streets are starting to flood. I heard ginger m
To reporters after their weekly party lunch, which President Trump attended. Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell said the meeting focused on tax reform legislation and was productive. Sen. Mcconnell good afternoon everyone. As you know, we had the president to lunch. I would highlight several things i think will be front and center at the end of the session. Obviously, tax reform. We are hopeful the house will willrow pass a budget that open the door to begin the in the of tax reform ways and means and finance committees. We will be confirming a number of judges, beginning with a couple of district judges. The president also talked about his upcoming announcement on opioids. We have a National Epidemic of historic proportions. The administration is correctly seizing on this issue as something important to the American People. We need to get a handle on this as best we can. The president will be talking about that excuse me later in the week. As the leader mentioned, one of the big points t
41 year career in the air force and in the National Intelligence and National Security area and talk to us about his book, playing to the edge american intelligence in the age of terror. The title playing to the edge is kind of a Sports Metaphor i think. Its like pushing the envelope or playing right to the edge of the field with truck in your cleats and its appropriate that general hayden would use Sports Metaphors. He practically was born in the shadow of the Pittsburgh Steelers stadium. They tore down my home to build three rivers stadium. All right. And we didnt mind because it was the steelers. Modestly dangerous comment. He was born in pittsburgh, of Irish Catholic family and the son of a welder. In Junior High School he was quarterback of his Football Team and coach of the Football Team then was the son of the founder of the steelers, the connection with his team who goes way back and theres actually a road now along the side of the stadium called Michael Hayden road and he was
Now, the truth is, the murder rate has generally you see there on the screen generally declined over the long term, going from 391 in 2007 to 277 just last year. However, murders are up significantly in the month of january, 37 compared to the january of last year. Its unclear if that trend is going to hold. But, ed, do you think that the president knew that when he said that, or is he just spouting out generalities, hes got chicago in his mind, and he just said something that he just didnt have any facts to base it on . My sense is that he paints in very broad brushstrokes. And then you go back, and you can start to parse what he has said. Hes put himself in that situation a number of times. Overall, i think anybody in a big city is going to complain about crime, is going to say that it is an issue. For him, that was certainly the case in the campaign. It worked for him very effectively.
