cooperating with the special counsel. it s true we don t know exactly what mueller s interest in george nader is but again, whatever it is he s providing, it is evidence in this kasz that is now before a grand jury. interesting. shimon, thank you. joining me is cnn legal and national security analyst and former fbi special agent, how significant is it that george nader is cooperating with the special counsel? to me brianna, this is significant because it s showing that mueller is really expanding the scope of his investigation. it s looking internationally that there were potentially even more contacts and connections we now have the uae involved in addition to russia and looking at how all of these things tie together with the trump campaign. so mueller s investigation is not ending any time soon. i can tell you that. i want to ask you about the
already submerged in many places. as i mentioned the power is going on and off at times, and they are filling the bathtubs trying to prepare, but the forecast is good news, because it is that we are looking for dry conditions in st. louis for the next 7 to 10 days, but the rain causing the flooding theday is parts of alabama and georgia and the carolinas, and this is an interesting stat here, when we talk about the number of deaths in missouri alone, when it come ts to the flood fatal t, 66% due to those driving through the water, but even though out taking pictures now, e brianna, when you have those fell in, playing around or walking in to check it out, you are talking about another 22% or 23% more. so it is dangerous, and the dry conditions will prevail there for the residents are are the there. and that is good news. we will wait and see, and there is another river north of the meramec which is the border of st. louis city and st. louis county and they have called out the emergency
changing a little bit. it is looking like the river going to be cresting a foot h h higher than expected with the supposed to crest around 43 feet which is three feet above the record, and now it is going to be cresting at 44 feet between midnight, and 6:00 a.m. flood state is 15 feet. and this is going to the crest at 44. i spoke to somebody from the missouri department of transportation, and he said for a stretch of 24 miles of interstate 44 is completely shutdown. it is most likely going to be shutdown until friday and 141 that runs perpendicular, the highway behind me could stay closed until monday or tuesday, and it is a matter of how quickly this water is going to be receding. unfortunately, e brianna, it is going to be a slow process, and so people have days, weeks, months ahead of them they will be cleaning up all of this mess. brianna. not surprising at four feet expected above the previous record. jennifer gray, thank you so much
anything wrong and that really gives me hope for him is that he s committed to showing he s innocent and getting out and clearing his name. we re thinking of you, certainly thinking of your brother as you continue with this ordeal and will continue to follow this story. thanks so much for talking with us. thanks for having me brianna. really appreciate it. amir hekmati is a u.s. marine veteran and has been in prison for almost four years charged with cooperating and coordinating with the u.s. government and sentenced to ten years and american pastor abedini has spent nearly three years in an iranian prison his charges stemming from converting to christianity and robert levenson disappeared in 2007. u.s. officials believe the iranians control his fate. again, that s a quote. that s it for me.
and i commend chrysler for offering this manual fix, but it is only a fix, it s not a standard feature and the driver has to go for that kind of fix. but the point here is the vulnerability is great and the urgency is also huge because cars will become more connected. that s a great potential boon but it also is a very direct bane of peril to consumers if they fail to understand the consequences and take precautions against them. it really is as basic as a car lock that prevents people from intruding or invading a car. that kind of door lock intrusion and invasion. senator blumenthal thanks so much for talking to us about this. really appreciate it. thank you, brianna. now, still to come an iran
