and in 2003 a 6.6 they ve seen cracks forming in a dam that holds back a river. on top of the 400 plus people who died the 70,000 who are homeless and the 6 1/2 thousand injured fears it might get worse. sandra: tragic situation there. thank you. bill: these are critical days ahead on the hill. watch this story. house leaders getting ready to pass their tax reform bill. do republicans have the votes. ? we ll check on that. the u.s. sending a strong message in the waters off north korea. president trump now wrapping up his historic trip in asia.
americans will pay more. it s much smaller percentage than pay more than under the 1986 reagan tax plan. not everybody is a winner but most people in this country would be winners. sandra: both the house and senate have big jobs to do this week. i think mike emanuel says they re upbeat and hopeful on capitol hill. the expectations are high. thank you for joining us this morning. bill: fox news alert. three u.s. aircraft carriers holding joint military exercises with south korean and japanese forces in the waters off the korean peninsula. the massive show of force coming as president trump wraps up his trip in asia and in the wake of new provocations from pyongyang. so where do we stand on this now? greg palkot watching all of that in london. tell us about the exercise first in the western pacific, greg. it s a very big show of
