And our european allies now demanding answers after leaked documents reveal the u. S. Has been spying on dozens of world leaders. Reportedly even wiretapping the german chancellors cell phone. Now some key u. S. Lawmakers are coming together to defend the program. I think the president should stop apologizing, stop being defensive. The reality is the nsa has saved thousands of lives. Also, crisis in california. Where some nursing home patients were abandoned after their home was ordered to close. There are human beings here. And we just leave people behind . How could this happen . And here we go again. A short time ago we learned a data center which hosts the governments website at the heart of the president s new Health Care Reform law has experienced connection failure. The division is having a serious problem. Were working to get more on this, but a spokesperson with the health and Human Services drpt is saying they understand the issue is affecting customers. It is just the latest in what is proving to be a tidal wave of trouble now sweeping over obama care nearly one month after its online launch. Now the dam appears like its starting to break. I mentioned the hhs is working on tonights glitch and the head of that department, secretary Kathleen Sebelius, is considering a letter now signed by ten Democratic Senators. They want an extension to the open Enrollment Period so americans will have more time to deal we the new law. National correspondent steve sintani is live with more. What happened . It was a component failure. It impacted the data center that hosted the website. And another system that verifies information. An hhs spokesperson told fox news we understand this issue is affecting other customers in addition to healthcare. Gov and they are working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. Darrell issa is demanding Obama Administration document issues with the development. Were looking for quick answers so that we can on behalf of the American People can straighten out as much as can be straightened out. The 90 thats below the water like an iceberg that are the other problems in obama care. Hhs secretary Kathleen Sebelius will finally testify on capitol hill this week about the rocky rollout. We dont want to put too rosy of a picture on this. Its not like theyre having a kumbaya moment. But we have seen democrats joining republicans in demanding solutions over this. Still they disagree in ways. What are thoses . Democrats still defend the Underlying Health care law which republicans dont. Saying theyre discouraged with that dysfunctional website. Both most of them dont think the law itself needs to be changed. The most important thing we should worry about right now is making sure we fix the website, not fixate on the website. Certainly i hope no one is talking about shutting down something new now with the health care website, because what we want to do is see all those young people and older folks access good Quality Health care. Also testifying this week on capitol hill, marilyn taviner who oversees the exchanges. They want those young folks as we just heard. Because thats part of the funding for this whole thing. Steve centanni, thank you very much. A push by one republican to fix president obamas broken promise to americans. You may recall what he said in 2009. Let me just start by setting the record straight on a few things ive been hearing out here. About reform. Under the reform were proposing, if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. If you like your Health Care Plan, you can keep your Health Care Plan. That was then. Turns out that has not been the case. Republican senator ron johnson of wisconsin introducing a bill that would allow americans to do just what the president was promising. Its called the quote, if you like your Health Care Plan you can keep it act. Fallout for the president s signature Health Care Law among the middle class in at least one state were seeing. Theyre experiencing sticker shock in california. Thousands of middle class consumers say theyre seeing hefty increasing in their Health Insurance bills. Premiums for them, they say, are going up in part to help offset the cost of covering sick and poor americans. But middle income consumers in california face an estimate 30 rate increase on average due to several other factors tied to the health car a quick look at how the obama care website has rolled out. By some estimates its cost nearly half a billion dollars. Still rising were told. In december 2011 the contractor cgi was awarded a 93. 7 Million Contract to develop the website. The actual construction of healthcare. Gov began in the first months of this year. Then in october it made its big debut. President obama gave a speech in the rose garden last monday where he suggested alternatively to going to the website to call the 1800 number. And officer todd park was issued to help fix the7[ x problems w the website. And now to spying on our friends. Our allies say theyre quite angry. And new reaction to washington to this latest snooping scandal. Reports came out days ago german chancellor Angela Merkels cell phone was being watched. Its creating a growing rift between america and our allies including france. Mike rogers saying its all about protecting everyone from terrorists. And instead of being angry, he says europe should be grateful. If the french citizens knew exactly what that was about, they would be applauding. Its a good thing. It keeps the french safe. It keeps the u. S. Safe. It keeps our allies safe. A lot of people in washington talking about this sunday. Peter doucy has more. If theyve been talking to on the phone, then the Oversight Committee believes president obama has got son explaining to do. If what you do in germany helps the germans end us, thats fine. But i dont believe listening to the head of state of an ally is needed. But republicans are split on this issue, because the chairman of the committee on counterintelligence says the United States doesnt need to change a thing. I think the president should stop apologizing, stop being defensive. The reality is the nsa has saved thousands of lives. Not just the United States, but also in france and germany and throughout europe. The white house says its reviewing intelligence policies and the quote what the president believes is important is were not collecting all we can collect. Rather we should be focused on the intelligence we should collect and the intelligence we need to collect to safeguard the United States and our allies. But one democratic senator said sunday that the u. S. Must now do some serious diplomatic repair work. I think the revelations from snowden and the secrets revealed are doing damage to our bilateral relations. Dick cheney said today he thinks the headlines this weekend are important to American Security and need to be preserved. Thank you. So the president might be facing a head wind of challenges right now from his signature Health Care Law to the uproar over the nsa spying that you just heard about. What toll is this taking on him politically . Ill ask fox news political insiders when they go live with us inside the fox report coming up. Right now pop star chris brown is in jail in d. C. Its just the latest runin with the law for this troubled singer. Well tell you why hes behind bars this time. And Staff Members at a nursing home walk off the job, leave the elderly patients for days to fend for themselves. Hopefully some people are going to have their eyes open seeing whats been going on there for the last 20 years. Its just ridiculous. A can of del monte green beans . If i was a flower growing wild and free all id want is you to be my sweet honeybee and if was a tree growing tall and green all id want is you to shade me and be my leaves grown in america. Picked packed at the peak of ripeness. The same essential nutrients as fresh. Del monte. Rsting with lifeā¢. Ooh, house down the street has fullsized candy bars. Adding it to our route. Glad i decided to trade in our old phones. Seriously, even the dog. Wait, guys, we gotta stay away from 32 elm street. Hes a dentist. Hes giving out floss weirdo. Gettinnew treats. Thats powerful. Verizon. Trade in your old phone towards a new one, like the Samsung Galaxy note 3 on americas most reliable network. Pop star chris brown is in jail in a cell right now after getting in a fight in d. C. Police say he and his bodyguard punched a man outside the w hotel early this morning. Theyre both charged with felony assault and expected to be held until tomorrow. You may recall chris brown was arrested just before the grammys in 2009 for beating up his thengirlfriend rihanna. Hes been sentenced to four years probation and have had runins with the law since then. An investigation in california after nursing home residents were abandoned. The Valley View Home was ordered to shut down thursday. So nearly the entire staff left. A cook and two others stayed behind working without pay to take care of those elderly patients. Some of them whom are bedridden. Help came officially 48 hours later. Now detectives are searching for the owners of this facility. Jonath how did this happen . Well, around 14 of them were abandoned by their caretakers. And these patients just have serious needs. Amputees and Mental Health patients of all ages actually. Some of them were bedridden. They didnt get proper care or hygiene for more than 48 hours. This is at valley manner southeast of oakland. One caregiver, the janitor, and the cook say they remained there out of their goodness of their heart. And they paid out of their own pockets to look after them. Well, the management and everything, they just went out. So me and my coworkers, we stayed until we got help. We did the best we could. Its a disgraceful situation, but Valley Springs manor or valley manor had a notorious reputation with the department of social services. It was finally ordered shut. Neighbors in the area said the new management came in two months ago and things went down hill from there. The patients families, you can imagine, just utterly appalled. I think they should be held accountable. I mean, you cant just vacate and leave your residents without proper care. I mean, this is what you pay for. Paramedics evacuated some of them, and they spent the night in the hospital. Others left on their own or with their relatives. Theyre still trying to account for everybody. Were not entirely sure exactly how many people were abandoned or where theyve gone. And most certainly of all, theres no sign of the caregivers. How can anybody imagine leaving the disabled and elderry behind this like. Its unimaginable. Thank you very much. We are inching toward the point where we were last year when Superstorm Sandy was hitting the part of the United States. It had started to march up the coastline. And now a story of survival on board the historic tanker we just showed you the night the storm slammed into new york city. Bold has a huge imagination. A playground of innovation, color, and design. Showing up where we least expect it. And taking inspiration from our wildest dreams. Because kohler doesnt see the world in fixtures and faucets. It reimagines. Coloring our lives in ways only bold could do, its no wonder the world cant wait to see what kohler does next. Afghanistan in 2009. On the u. S. S. Saratoga in 1982.

Begin your legacy. Get an Auto Insurance quote. Usaa. We know what it means to serve. We are just a couple of days away from marking one year since Superstorm Sandy hit this part of the east coast. And all this time has passed and still some of the recovery aid has been delayed. Now new Jersey Governor Chris Christie is deflecting blame for the delays. Its been, like i said, nearly a year since sandy hit the northeast and left huge areas of coastal new jersey in ruins. Thats where it touched down first as it took that hook up the coast. The governor is pointing fingers at congress which took three months to approve a 50. 7 billion relief package for the region. He says his administration has done all it can and has been held hostage by the delay. Plus mounds of red tape put in the way to prevent fraud. Like what we saw after hurricane katrina. Few will remember sandys Destructive Force like one woman. Incredibly, she rode out the storm on october 29th of last year aboard this vessel the mary a. Whalen. We now have more of her story and what shes trying to do now. Brian . Hi, harris. This is a story about unsung heroes. The mary a. Whalen oil tanker is a National Historic maritime treasure even though few have ever heard of the tanker. That is, before she stood up to Superstorm Sandy. Tied to the docks off brooklyns red hook neighborhood, youll find the forgotten mary a. Whalen. Engineless for the last eight years. Looks pretty rough. Theres no central heat and theres no flush toilets. Carolina owns this ship and has a nonprofit bedding that preserving the history is key to transforming the economy. And she wasnt going to let Superstorm Sandy get in the way. It is a symbol of preparedness and rel sisilient. So as the storm washed ashore, she spoke to her partner to board. Sometimes they were crawling on the floor to make it they didnt fall overboard. It was scary at times. We go back inside and come out every half hour to check on to make sure we were secure. Preparation kept whalen from becoming a similar ship which washed ashore on staten island. It quickly became a recovery effort. Carolina used the equipment to start one of red hooks command centers inside of an art gallery. We used computers to access fema. Set up free clinics. Put up a few community meetings. Made the Space Available for other things. It was a safe place. The port center stayed open for a month providing hundreds with information all thanks to a forgotten ship and her determined leader. She survived. The white house has since honored portside, new york, for their Recovery Efforts with superstorm santy. Thank you. People in the rockies are getting a cold blast of arctic weather at this hour. This is particularly cold. This weather system just beginning. Well show you where millions of americans will soon get slammed by snow and ice. Plus our political insiders are here. They are getting micced up. Theyll join me at home base in just a moment. This is an incompetent rollout. But part of liberal ideology that believes government should run the health care. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Weather alert. An arctic cold front ramping up in one part of our nation. Its expecting to bring up to two feet of snow in some areas. Lets go live to the fox weather center. This is not unusual, but these temperatures are going to be bitter. Absolutely. Theyre going to drop like a rock. The National Weather service is warning folks in this region. They need to be on alert. Not only are you going to get the snow, but it has been mild in this area and the temperatures are going to drop very quickly. So the storm is just getting its act together across the rockies. Its going to be with us for several days as it makes its way eastward across much of the u. S. But for now we have a dozen states under Winter Weather advisories. Over a foot of snow is likely in a lot of these areas. Winds in excess of 50 Miles Per Hour so we could see blizzard advisories up within the next 12 to 24 hours. Look at the snow. Widespread snow across a widespread area of the west. And all of this is going to move eastward, harris. Not only are we going to see the potential for a snowstorm, but its going to interact with some warm gulf air. That means the potential for Severe Weather as we head into tuesday and wednesday. Large hail, damaging winds, and isolated tornadoes. Not only a snowstorm, but well see a Severe Threat through the next couple of days. Then hl wean, the east coast needs to watch this system. Back to you. Really . We thought wed see one halloween where maybe things were clear. First it was the snowstorm. Then Superstorm Sandy. We were hoping for the best. It will probably be just rain, but we will certainly keep you uptodate. Its not going to be sandy or the snowstorm, but could be weather that kids have to deal with. All right. Thank you very much.
