about rod rosenstein s future to rest. look at what he said yesterday. you figure that one out. how do you interpret that, lauren? well, you know, i think what would be smart for the produce to do here would be to not terminate mr. rosenstein, he should keep him in place. the president would be best served to let the investigation continue and conclude. we do know that russia tried to meddle in our election in 2016. that should be concerning to all americans, no matter what party you are. so i think that the president would be best served to let this roll on, let it play out, and ultimately, should he be vindicated in the end, then we ll know that. but continuing to talk about this back and forth, and especially by the president himself, it s not serving him. they should allow the investigation to continue and conclude. so you re disagreeing with the tweet he put out this morning that it totally

commuter chaos in prime rush hour traffic. no word yet on the exact cause of this. they re investigating. laura engel is live at the scene with new information for us today. good morning, laura. good morning, martha. i just heard from a battalion chief that the number of injuries has gone up. when we got here about an hour ago it was 70. now it has gone up to 103. most of those injuries are minor, although we have been hearing that there is a woman with a possible broken leg. so we re waiting to get more information as the minutes roll on. as anybody knows, this is a very busy time for this commuting train. it happened at 8:20 this morning. that s when first responders got the call. and you know once they got here it was actually a report of a train derailment. things changed once they got inside the terminal to see what exactly happened. it was certainly a mess. it was dusty. lots of broken glass.
all that heavy weight on the deck, those cargo containers, the roll-on, roll-off cargo containers. once he lost propulsion he was sitting dead in the water. that was very difficult for him. thank you very much, mark potter. white house press secretary josh earnest moments ago with new reaction after the hospital strike in kunduz, afghanistan. this is something the united states takes quite seriously. in fact, the department of defense goes to greater lengths than any other military organization in the world to prevent civilian casualties. that is what leads general campbell to conclude this was a mistake. on capitol hill earlier today, the top u.s. general in afghanistan made this stark admission while testifying before a senate committee. the hospital was mistakenly struck. we would never intentionally target a protected medical
ship they couldn t get to it. is this the best system for lifeboat deployment? this is a 20-year-old ship. i look at that footage and i see the guy kind of going over there to that stack of lifeboats. isn t there a design that would fire these things automatically? there isn t. if you look at similar sized ferry passenger vessels what we call roll pack, roll on, roll off operating in the baltic, for example, you have lifeboats which are ready for people to get into and then have them lowered into the water and life rafts which have to be manually deployed, thrown into the water and passengers and crew would have to swim to them in order to get on board. in the case of the korean ferry there were only life rafts. because of the delay by the captain to order that the life rafts be deployed the ship was at such an acute angle they were unable to deploy them and as a result it just added to the
