Rights activist and democratic congressman john lewis, but first president obama reflects on the last eight years as commander in chief. I think my basic character and outlook actually have not changed much and people who are closest to me would tell you that the guy who came here is the same guy who is leaving. One of the first things that he has done in this transition period is to pick a fight with the intelligence agencies. Do you think that thats a smart move . Youre not going to be able to make good decisions without building some relationship of trust between yourself and that community. You see that happening . Not yet, but, again he hasnt gotten sworn into office yet. Saving the economy was a pretty big deal. We did a lot of stuff early that ended up having an impact. I was surprised and continue to be surprised by the severity of partisanship in this town. Weve set a bar that shows that what are you going to do on the 21st when you wake up . I dont know where youll be, but yo
Time. They are kind of incidental also apparently. Anyway, thats my 2 cents. We have far back in the forefront. On the policy question you gave a great example on Climate Change their influence was able to kill the legislation but do you think they have a thought on how their apparatus is possibly harming efforts to move criminal Justice Reform and how they would help their influence could be effective when it seems theyve driven partisanship to the point you find partisanship to pass legislation and theyve created quite a bit of harm. Their ability to have the takeover in the house and the senate then puts them in the drivers seadrivers seat to thet they can do things like have bipartisan movement for criminal Justice Reform so they would see this as something thats enabled them to reach out to others. They see themselves as a force for good and its not the view everybody has to share. Of all the companies youve investigated have you ever run across one that wasnt a force for good . A
Coverage along the river for you. Lets go to kevin. Reporter we are just north of the district on the nature trail. You can see it goes underneath this rail bridge around 9th avenue. It goes down about 34 feet. It is all solid water. You can get a good look at how nasty the water is. This is why you should not go in floodwaters. Look at all of these branches and twigs that were brought from upstream. The water is low right now compared to what it is supposed to get to. Right now it is 14 feet. This is the first while that will stop first wall that will stop the water. As you can imagine, at about 45 feet clear this wall. We will almost certainly see water coming up over this embankment in the next few hours and then it will start heading towards newbo. We will take one last look at this. This is the first piece of real flooding we have seen on the bike trail. It gives you an idea of how high this is just a few feet below where the railway is. This could potentially be very dangerous in
Try to save those. And they were not alone. There was a massive effort to save the areas. Here is a look at the flood defenses constructed over the weekend and how they are holding up so far. We have been showing you the air view all day long. Well show you some of the incredible images captured by the fox 28 drone from high communities, including palo, imosa. First, well get the latest on where the flood river stands right now. Lets turn to chief meteorologist terry swails. Lets get to some numbers here and show you where we are. And the cedar river at vin ton that means that crest has passed there. It is between cedar rapids and vinton and so that is probably close to palo. We are looking at seens like this. We did have residential areas flooded by the water. This home pretty much an island. Its definitely a problem in parts of palo as the river continues to rise there, but it should be very close to cresting in that, it moves down stream towards cedar rapids. We still think that cre
Level stands. We turn to terry swailvs for that answer. We can check our gauge data out every 15 minutes or so. What well do is start upstream. Up in the vicinititon area, river has actually crested. Were expecting a crest to be in palo. This is thanks to the cbs 2 surrounded by water. Other homes are also impact in the palo area. Thats the water that was heading to the area. Were on track for a 23 foot crest at 7 a. M. Tomorrow morning. Major flooding is underway. Our records go all the way back to 1851. This is the secondhighest the river has been in 165 years of records. Look how quickly this has happened. Here you can see where we go over the mark. The crest will angle around nor day and a half. Another river thats rising quickly is up in an motorcycles sarks. We feet. Shouldnt cause too many problems in animosa. Theres no rain on the radar tonight. The weather pattern turns much dryer. This is our rainfall forecast. Can you see as we run this all most of the upper midwest has turn
