Severe to critical. There is clearly concerned there could be a follow on attack which is awful news for the residents of the United Kingdom and certainly they have a Million People who live in manchester. A horrific attack nearly 23 hours ago. This scene is different here. Police are still here, the road is still close but no screams, no sirens. The train station, victoria station, also closed. Its connected directly to the manchester arena, largest indoor concert venue in the u. K. Its believed the bomber blew himself up between the train station and the concert venue in a public area. Just as 21,000 people began streaming for the exits. Those people were mostly teens and preteens who had just enjoyed a Ariana Grande concert and were headed for the exits when the suspect blew himself up with an improvised explosive device that included nuts and bolts to maximize the cartage. Victims included 18yearold georgina colander. She was a student who loved pop music and Ariana Grande. Had met her a couple years ago and posted their picture on instagram. Another victim, an 8yearold girl named Saffie Rose Roussos who is mom and sisters were among the dozens of wounded, they are among those dozens being treated at eight area hospitals. Here is more from the Prime Minister who spoke a short time ago. It is concluded on the basis of todays investigations that the threat level should be increased for the time being from severe to critical. More than 20 dead, close to 60 wounded. This is the worst attack in the u. K. Since the train bombings on july 7, 2005. Eric lets meet todays specialists. She is ame awardwinning broadcast journalist. She is the anchor of megatv. Her specialty is speaking about u. S. Hispanic issues. A virus alazhar he is the former chairman of godfathers pizza but his specialty is rocket science. Im not kidding. I will get to the specialists in a second but i want to talk about theresa may raising the threat level, basically saying they believe another terror attack is imminent. Eboni i am happy to see pro activity. Theresa may elevating the concern. Eric we should not think this is not irrelevant that Ariana Grande, an american artist, being, the concert being attacked. Kat its not irrelevant. They were targeting young girls. Its very disgusting. Its an attack and its an attack on us and our way of life. I love that President Trump called them losers. I think thats great. We need to be careful. Not letting it interfere with our way of life. Dispute three herman mccain, what goes on there doesnt necessarily go on here but we have to be careful it doesnt. President trumps initiative to do better vetting and control who comes in the country, now the people who are against that, it makes them look stupid quite frankly. Thats the one thing we can do. We can do better vetting and know who is here and we can know who has overstayed their visas. , they are avoiding common sense themes that could be done. Eric do you agree with herman cain that we need to step up vetting . Elvira i have no doubt and i agree with what youre saying but i think what President Trump was more important and intelligent, going to saudi arabia and talking to the muslim world. He telling them we need your help. We cannot do it alone. They are your enemies as well as ours. 95 of the victims that isis and al qaeda has hit upon or killed is muslim grid we need to go to the root of the problem until those countries helping these guys become radicalized hey, youve got to stop. Youve got to stop the financing and stop helping them and preaching this radical idea. Kat we need to look at homegrown terrorism. This guy was born here, just like the orlando shooter, born here. San bernardino shooter, one was born here and one was from saudi arabia. She was here legally as well. Homegrown terrorism is a huge problem. The solutions arent quite so easy. Eric im going to jump into that a little bit in the monologue later. However, we need to note, and we did in the intro, that mr. Abedi is the son of libyan refugees. Kat thats true but even trumps ban would be temporary for refugees. Its difficult to vet a son. Eric what i was getting at was the freedom to become a refugee and get into europe and travel freely throughout the continent can be dangerous, can be seen as dangerous. Eboni we have to do is more than one thing at one time. Im sure we can do it. We can have important constitutional extreme vetting and we can watch out for these homegrown domestic terrorism. This is ideological. We know this. We have to stamp out the ideology. As kat said, San Bernardino. This manchester person, born in england. It is more than one issue. Herman it starts with enforcement of laws that are already there and making sure we know who is here as well as better vetting of those who want to come here. Eric and the hundreds of thousands of people who overstay their visas in the United States. Elvira and thats why we have such an immigration problem. If you want to get into that, we can deal with that issue. Dont give them jobs. Eric isnt it the same issue . Points to the exact same threats, whether its a muslim, im sorry, a radical islamic terrorists who want to come here or someone coming from the southern border. Elvira the difference is that the guy sneaking in on the southern border wants a job and he gets it. If the person who gives him the job is as much to blame as he has. Eric in the aftermath of the Manchester Attack, somehow took up some are saying to accept terror as a way of life. Europe is getting used to attacks like this. We have to because we are never going to be able to totally wipe this out. As isis gets squeezed in syria and iraq, were going to see more of these attacks taking place in europe. And europe is starting to get used to that. None of us are used to having children targeted in this way, young girls targeted in this way. Eric basically she is saying we need to get used to it. How the hill do you get used to terror attacks . Kat you shouldnt. Its not about the carnage. Its about the fact that its that you see the scene. Girls wearing kitten ears. Its about trying to spread fear through the entire culture. Important to not change our way of life, not sure we are afraid. To call them losers. I thought that was the most savage, wonderful thing to say. Herman forgive me for being direct. Thats a silly statement to say were going to get used to terror when there are so many things we can do with the technology we have and they intelligence community. We do not have to settle for it, as some people are suggesting fairly can do a lot about it. The reason the people who do this are losers is because their way of life has lost against our way of life. Thats really the big difference between how they think and how we think. They are jealous of us having the biggest economy in the world and the most powerful military and the most freedom. Eboni i agree wholeheartedly and i would go a step further and say i reject what katie was saying. Many, this guy was already on their watch. They were already looking at him. San bernardino, already looking. A ten month probe on the orlando shooter. We are doing a lot right around identifying threats but we are doing something wrong about following up. Elvira the orlando terrace paid i live in miami. He was, a week before he went to the place where he bought all the ammunition in order to conduct the attack and he wanted to buy a heavy body armor. The owner of the store said no, im not going to sell it to you. He turned around and call the fbi and the fbi never followed up. The fbi could have stopped the massacre if they had kept a closer eye. Eric why are we concerned about donald trump saying we want to vet people, not muslim people, but from these nations who have known ties to terror. Why are we so upset with his proposal . Kat because of his past comments. Its completely legal, without a question, for a president to ban based on a geographic location. We even had Rudy Giuliani come out and say trump asked him how to implement the muslim ban. Eric but its not. They reject they rejected rudys account of that. They pushed back. These are six of the seven in President Trumps nation moratorium came from president obama himself. Eboni true, on its face but absent candidate trumps rhetoric on the campaign trail, he specifically talked about banning muslims. Now what youre saying is right, the notion of a geographical target around criminally profiling. Eric for the safety of america, do we not want to go on what President Trump has put on paper as president and forget what he said as a candidate. People say a lot of things. Elvira look at how he was treated when he went to saudi arabia. They treated him like a king. Kat they would be too influential to ban. Elvira there muslim brothers were on the list. Eric we have a lot more on this topic. President trump calling for all civilized nations to obliterate terrorism in the wake of the Manchester Attack. How can he rally support during this crucial european leg of his trip. Did you know slow internet can actually hold your business back . Say goodbye to slow downloads, slow backups, slow everything.

And add phone and tv for only 34. 90 more a month. Call today. Comcast business. Built for business. Eboni confronting terrorism was already a major part of President Trumps focus on this trip. Now it is taken center stage. I wont call them monsters because they would like that term. They would think thats a great name. I will call them, from now on, losers because thats what they are. They are losers. Eboni President Trump delivering a forceful call for u. S. Allies to rally against the islamic terror threat. Despicable we must drive oute terrorists and extremists from our midst. Protect and defend our citizens and people of the world. Eboni how should this Manchester Attack impact President Trumps strategy moving forward . Elvira 1 of the population of the United States is muslim. I think we should go to the mosques and talk to them and become friends with them and tell them the fbi and all of the Law Enforcement agencies, they are friends, not enemies. Keep an eye on the youngsters that have gone back to the country of origin of their parents and become radicalized. People that have become very religious all of a seven. Check on their website, what they are writing on social medi media. Talk to their friends, and keep an eye on them. The fbi is keeping an eye on hundreds and hundreds of muslim youngsters that may become radicalized. Thats why i think we havent had so many attacks like europe. Eboni i can appreciate that from a legal perspective but im going to turn to you, kat. This gets into a delicate balance between Public Safety and Civil Liberties because some people can say that what you are describing sounds like profiling. As an attorney, criminal profiling is an effective tool. But racial is a whole nother thing. Its unconstitutional. New talk about targeting people on the basis of religion, how do you feel about that . Kat i dont feel great about it. We need to think about, before we make policy changes from an emotional place. This is a very emotional issue. When you look at a lot of the things people try to do in practice to stop terrorism, look at what happened in manchester. There was all these metal detectors, security. He moved the bombs further outside. You go to the airport. There is nobody in the parking lot. 20 groups of people everywhere. We need to make sure to not destroy our own Civil Liberties with policies trying to prevent a threat. Thats a threat to our way of life too. Eboni do you think we have to recalibrate the balance . Ultimately the courts have sided with the Civil Liberties part. Herman it starts with allowing the agency to do their jobs. They have tools to recalibrate but because everybody is so politically sensitive about being politically correct, you dont make policies based upon sound bites. Eight years, for eight years, the authorities were afraid to do their jobs because they were going to be thrown under the bus. This president has said im not going to throw you under the bus. Lets find a err on the side of eric if you see something, Say Something. Elvira, you talked about San Bernardino that the family had turned over to the fbi but neighbors saw something and they felt if they did Say Something they were going to be called islamaphobic. I would also say that the temporary travel moratorium is going to be important because it tells the world youre not going to just walk in here, come over here and if you have some sort of jihad, which they do. Rates extreme vetting, its not a ban. Its a temporary moratorium from areas, not religions but from areas of the world were terror is a hotbed. Eboni i think the message needs to be cleaner. We have to understand. What youre talking about make sense. I think most people would be on board with it. I think the messaging gets convoluted and we end up with something that sounds like racial or religious profiling. Eric the Trump Administration has rewritten it. Pointing out and has nothing to do with race or religion. Just origin. Elvira putting that aside, President Trumps trip to saudi arabia and somehow changing the rules or lease changing the perception the way that the muslim world sees us or sees him where he is saying we are not here because we dont want to clash of civilizations. We want to be your friend. We want you to help us. We are here to protect you against iran, another problem they have, and isis and al qaeda. I think the muslim world will look at us with a different eye. Kat i want to point out there are people in this country know who are here legally that have family in those countries. Thats why its a sensitive issue. They are worried, can their family see them . And they go see their family and come back . Eric they cleared it up. If you had visas, people who were holding visas who had family in the country had the freedom to come here. Can i pose this to anyone who want where are the moderate muslims in america who are stepping up and becoming more forceful in the fight against jihad or calling out terror cells we know are happening . Elvira we have to go back to the mosques and talk to them and say we need your help. 1 of the population, almost 3 million muslims, we need you more than the fbi because they are the ones that will tell us who are the bad hombres in the muslim world. Eboni top officials that to testify on capitol hill toda today. We asked a group of young people when they thought they should start saving for retirement. Then we asked some older people when they actually did start saving. This gap between when we should start saving and when we actually do is one of the reasons why too many of us arent prepared for retirement. Just start as early as you can. Its going to pay off in the future. If we all start saving a little more today, well all be better prepared tomorrow. Prudential. Bring your challenges.

Kat the russia investigation in the spotlight today with top, current, and former intelligence officials testifying. Comes after a new strike by leakers for this time alleging in the Washington Post that President Trump had asked intelligence chiefs to publicly deny collusion between his campaign in russia. The collusion question played big during John Brennans hearing. Did evidence exist of collusion, coordination, conspiracy between the Trump Campaign and russian state actors . I dont know whether or not such collusion, thats your term, such collusion existed. I dont know. But i know there was a sufficient basis of information and intelligence that required further investigation by the bureau to determine whether or not u. S. Persons were actively conspiring, colluding with russian officials. Kat so brennan doesnt know if actual collusion occurred. I am pretty much only interested in actual collusion. I thought the way trumps team handled it was perfect. A white house spokesperson said we are not confirming or denying anonymous things. I want to see proof. I am glad the investigation is going on. Im happy to see it continuing, but more anonymous leaks, okay. Herman this whole thing and some of the articles that have come out of it illustrates it provides just enough buzzwords for speculation. No proof, no sources, no facts. Just more speculation. The liberal media is going to pick up on some of these phrases and run with it. For example, theyre going to run theyre going to speculate on a conclusion and try to find something to substantiate the conclusion. That is what is wrong with all of this. Kat i think people are less interested in it now, though, even then the beginning of this week. Eric the left in the Mainstream Media will eat th
