An alarming new warning about the threat of the zika virus to the united states. We absolutely need to be ready, you know, as they were saying, everything we look at with this virus seems to be scarier than we initially thought. The cdc is sounding the alarm after mosquitoes carrying the virus are found in 30 states. Health Officials Say zika is now linked to a broader set of complications in pregnancy than first thought. The biggest concern is puerto rico. That is where there could be hundreds of thousands of cases. The white house and congress now fighting over emergency response. That is some unsettling news. New overnight, the taliban promising large scale attacks in a socalled spring offensive. Theyre marking the launch of a violent summer as they say wagging jihad is a holy obligation. Theyre expected to incorporate homicide bombings, assassinations and other tactics to fight american and Afghan Security forces. Hundreds of people attended duelling rallies supporting and opposing north carolinas controversial bathroom bill. It requires people to use bathrooms based on their birth gender. This as another musician joins the force of opposition. Despite objecting to the bill, jimmy buffet is refusing to cancel two sold out concerts saying that he doesnt want to let his fans down. Unlike Bruce Springstein who canceled a concert over the weekend. Well, the pressure is on. Just one week before new yorks big primary day, new poll has donald trump and Hillary Clinton with double digit leads over their rivals. Kristen fisher is live following the late jest on the campaign trail. Kristen, good morning. Reporter good morning, abby. For the second day in a row theres a new poll out giving trump a double digit lead. Trump is at 54 , kasich 21 and ted cruz at 18. This poll also asks republican primary voters in new york what should happen if trump wins the most delegates but falls short of the 1237 number thats needed to clinch the nomination. Turns out an overwhelming number, 64 say in that case trump should still get the nomination. Only 28 said that it should go to someone else. Last night trump had a huge rally in albany, new york. About 10,000 people were there. Trump was interrupted multiple times by protesters but trump begged his Security Team and supporters to keep things peaceful and they did. That allowed trump to focus his fire on the real target of the night, the system of selecting delegates which he called rigged, crooked and corrupt. Next tuesday youre going to go out and vote. You hear them when they say, it doesnt matter who you vote for, this is a great democracy. What we found out in colorado and in other places, this is not a democracy like were supposed to have. Were going to make it a better democracy. Were not going to have rged elections. The latest thing he seized upon is when people vote against him theyre stealing the election. Its a really odd notion. What is this democracy of which you speak . Wait, you mean voters get to vote . No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no. Democrats, both sanders and clinton campaigned in new york where sanders continued to take sleights at clinton for her vote on iraq. All the others have to say about iraq, i listened closely, i did not believe them. I voted against the war in iraq. Secretary clinton, who was then your senator from new york, heard the same evidence. She voted for that disastrous war. But his attacks dont seem to be resonating with new york voters, at least according to this new poll. It shows clinton ahead 55 to 41. Again, here we have two polls in two days and both show the frontrunners, clinton and trump, way ahead in new york. Heather . Kristin fisher live in new york. Thank you, kristin. More than 400 protesters arrested on capitol hill demonstrating against the role of money in politics. Money in politics. Protesters held signs reading things go better without koch. That of course a reference to the billionaire business men david and charles koch who have promised to lead a 900 Million Campaign to back favorite candidates. They also protested state voter i. D. Laws and democratic super delegates. Is donald trump the only target . Well, after printing a fake front page predicting the chaos of a trump presidency, the boston globe is not saying whether its planning to do the same for the other candidates. The editor now defending the fake headlines. Talking about rounding up 11 Million People and sending them back to their home countries in less than two years. That is an extraordinary claim, and we wanted to show what that looks like in reality. The reality is that the editorial page comments on politics and other news events every single day. This is just kind of an unconventional new approach of doing it and one that we thought, you know, really sparked a conversation and were really pleased by that. Its certainly a new approach. The mock front page ran on the opinion section in sundays paper. Trump called the paper, quote, stupid and worthless. Well, now its time for a look at whos talking. Former cia director is slamming john brennan saying he would go against a president ial order on water boarding calling it unacceptable. When madison and his colleagues were putting the constitution together on that hot summer i dont remember anybody incorporating in article 2 that the cia director could overrule the president. They didnt even have a cia director at the time. Its one thing for him to disagree with a policy and say that he disagrees with it or agrees with it. Its another for him to say for john brennan to say that he would take not take an action even if he were ordered by the president to do so. Well, im hearing on protecting taxpayer information and the role could examine how the irs is keeping your personal Information Safe from cyber criminals and what improvements are neglects.
