But the acting director of national intelligence, joseph maguire, is refusing to hand over that report for now. Maguire says he determined the allegations did not merit urgent concern, and since they relate to a person outside of the intel community, he does not need to pass them along to capitol hill. Schiff pointed out this is the first time a director of intelligence overruled the decision of the Inspector General and raised concerns that this refusal may indicate a coverup to protect President Trump. On sunday, schiff said on face the nation that it is fair to assume this report involves the president , people around him, or both. Anthony . Thanks. Still so much we dont know there.

A version of a popular drug is on hold this morning after a possible cancercausing chemical was found in heartburn medications like zantac. The maker of a generic version, novartis, stopped the distribution of its prescription version as a precaution. The move comes after the fda announced on friday that the medicines containing ndma could be a probable carcinogen. The maker of zantac that is not suspending distribution said in a statement, the fda reported that the levels of ndma in rantidine rarely exceeded amounts found in common foods. Were working closely with the fda. A lot of names of the medicines. Lets start with the ndmm. What is it exactly . Its a byproducts of processes. Manufacturing of dyes or tires or rubber can lead to this as well as chlorination of water. You can get if from smoked meats, fish, tobacco smoke, or malt beverages. It is out there. It shouldnt number our medications, however. This was the same type of contaminant or byproduct that was found in some of the Blood Pressure medicines that were recalled last year. Things like valsartan. It is considered a probable carcinogen in humans. It has been shown to cause cancer in animals. How dangerous would put it . I dont think we necessarily know. Certainly the fda is saying the levels are very low. The company that alerted to this result are doing their own testing, saying the levels they found were thousands of times higher than the allowable amount. If youre taking zantac, should you stop . The fda is not saying to stop. Theyre saying you can talk to your Health Care Provider about what other drugs there are. That could be in the same class or something different. If youre taking overthecounter zantac, there are other options. Theyre not recalling it, but they want us to know about it . They do. They do. They want to scare us. Im confused. They have to do investigating and see what exactly are the levels, what companies or brands are involved and how dangerous is it. It took them a while even last year to pull back some of the Blood Pressure medicines. If you had been taking this for years and had stopped, how worried should you be about past use . Thats a great question. Certainly last year when they lifted the Blood Pressure medicines, they said the amount detected, about 17 micrograms, there were 8,000 people that took the highest dose of valsartan for four years there one additional case of cancer. Obviously a low number. But who knows what the amounts are in this. So certainly something to keep in mind if you do take this every single day. All right. Thank you, tara.
