C. , Federal Government offices closed early today, sending employees home ahead of these anticipated storms. Plane travel up and down the east coast, largely grounded at this hour. No sense of when that stops. This is the most serious threat of the storm that the nations capitol has faced in years. Fox weather correspondent katie berne is in d. C. Tonight on the streets. Good evening, katie. Good evening, bret. Yeah, rain is moving into d. C. Now and we could feel hurricanestrength winds gusting as fast as 75 miles per hour. In fact, in a suburb of d.

are several that have made it, seven. you have got vice president pence and asa hutchinson former governor of arkansas that they meet the polling aspect of it but not the fundraising aspect. you are are you meeting the fundraising aspect? we have. yes. we met the fundraising aspect which is 20 different states with 200 contributions and today we are announcing that we hit the 40,000 total contribution threshold so, yes, we have met the fundraising flesh hold. we have met one of the three pollinpolling thresholds we polt 1% in iowa. having the volume to tell my story and talk about the vision for the future of the country is what is going to give me the volume to poll at 1% at the very minimum in two national polls and another state poll which we hope to have in new hampshire, soon. once we meet that threshold on august 23rd, we will be on equal footing with 8 or 9 candidates
dean than obama. howard dean ran this kind of campaign and slammed out. he is a democratic party insider. adam, he lit himself on fire. i know and in experienced. the other politicians will too. i said it. i said it. we will have time to talk about it. i agree on the fundraising and the polling aspect. if you talk to the people at the campaign the margin of error is high. these are the public polls and trump where do you think it goes when the dust settles? i don t know. here is the thing that i cannot figure out. i am not an expert on this. i talk to the guys. we don t know if there s some sort of a size ship here that people hate the establishment so much that they will not vote for a figure. they did not come out last time. i know.
for the next seven months? you have israel hanging in the balance. there s also the polling aspect of it is that a vast majority of egyptians have an unfavorable view of america and have a favorable view of the muslim brotherhood. so i understand what you re saying, tamara, in a perfect world, you re right. democracy would flourish. the problem is it s far from perfect. and we have a chaotic situation where, you know, i know that you re not kind of speaking to history but historically, the type of thing that happens is this radical organization is able to sort of, you know, harness the support and come into balance. i have 10 seconds. but the muslim brotherhood only got 20% of the vote so i think you re wrong that they re as popular as they say. look at the validity of the election now. what s more important is what happens going forward and whether they speak up because in iran, ayatollah told carter there would be in clerics in our government and we stupidly accepted that.
