And the president has been really very amazing, and i think were going to have a very good result for mexico, for the United States and for everybody involved. Reporter the president made those remarks in first events in the east room of the white house and held a reception for leaders of Law Enforcement in charge with securing the inauguration, you saw greeting the fbi director james comey. They had not quite a man hug but it was close, harris and the president whispered something in the fbi directors ear. Clearly no hard feelings over what transpired during the election last fall, harris . Harris talk about the continuing feud with the press. Reporter and its ongoing and continues, i dont know if it will continue into the new week, it continued all weekend long with President Trump taking offense at a couple of things. First of all erroneous tweet was sent out friday night that the president removed from the oval office the bust of Martin Luther king that had been there through the obama presidency. Theres the photograph, and theres the bust. Pushing back against stories that the crowd for President Trumps inauguration was much smaller than it was during president obamas first inauguration in 2009. Heres what Reince Priebus said about all of that with Chris Wallace on Fox News Sunday. Are you saying theres a conspiracy here . Im saying theres an obsession by the media to delegitimize this president. And we are not going to sit around and let it happen. Were going to fight back tooth and nail every day and twice on sunday. Reporter the president got into it yesterday during visit to the cia drawing fire from the echoing fbi director john brennan who took issue with President Trump using the cias Memorial Wall as a backdrop while ripping the press. Nick shapiro tweeting brennan says trump should be ashamed of himself. That drew a sharp response this morning from trumps chief counselor Kellyanne Conway, watch. We have an outgoing cia director sounding like a partisan political hack about the president of the United States. I think Everybody Needs to take a step back and deep breath, george and think about what their words are. Reporter the chief of staff for the white house, Reince Priebus, jumping into fray on bashing this morning, saying i dont i have no idea whats in his head, harris . I know Kellyanne Conway was talking about the president today, specifically about his tax returns. Reporter of course, the opposition during the campaign was making a deal President Trump had not released his tax returns. If you interpret Kellyanne Conways comments this morning literally, we may never see the tax returns. Watch here. The white house response is that hes not going to release the tax returns. We litigated this all through the election, people didnt care, they voted for him, and make this clear, most americans are focused on what their tax returns will look like while President Trump is in office. Not what his look like. Reporter we may be leaving all of this feuding behind as we enter the new week, harris, because the president has a full plate of policy issues on executive orders hes signing and, of course, at the end of the week, after he goes to philadelphia for the house and Senate Republican retreat, hes got his first foreign leader coming to visit him again, theresa may from britain. Busy week. Harris the headline, the patient freedom act which we expect to see rolled out. A bill tomorrow which is designed to repeal and replace obamacare. Well get into it later this hour with my guests. Always good to see you. Breaking news of weather we started moments ago. Storm warnings in effect across georgia and north florida. A system that could drop twisters, were told. Weve seen at least 16 people are dead. 4 in mississippi, 12 in georgia. Thats a number that continues to climb. The National Weather service says the severe movement has the potential to spin long track tornados which can stay on the ground for 20 miles or more. Oh, boy. We have more adam klotz is live in the extreme weather center. First, on the ground where weve seen danger, Jonathan Serrie in cook county, georgia. Reporter you can see the scene behind me. Im standing in what used to be a farm. There was a nursery here, several other outbuildings and as you zoom in, you can see metal shards that were scattered in the heavy winds what local officials believe was a tornado that tore through this area here. Im standing not far from a mobile home park, were told that half of the structures there were destroyed and harris, you mentioned the fatalities in the state of georgia. More than half of those fatalities occurred at that mobile home park. Harris . Harris we can see what looks to be massive at least localized where you are, authorities have had a very busy weekend responding. Reporter they have indeed, and the response has been immediate. Before the storm system moved out of area, there were utility crews moving in trying to set back the utility poles that have been toppled over. They are string poles right now. Earlier governor nathan deal declared a state of emergency in cook county and six other georgia counties that were hard hit by the storm. He also spoke by phone with President Donald Trump. Mr. Trump speaking about the disaster earlier today. Lets give it a listen. I just spoke with governor nathan deal of georgia. Great state, great people. Florida affected, alabama affected by the tornadoes and expressed our sincere condolences for the lives taken. Tornadoes were vicious and powerful and strong, and they suffered greatly. So well be helping out the state of georgia. Reporter and as the president pointed out, its not just georgia that was affected but other southern states. State of mississippi was also hard hit, several fatalities reported there, and the earliest estimate suggests that 300 homes in mississippi were either damaged or destroyed. Harris . Harris jonathan, thank you very much, and you heard the president there saying that for georgia, they can expect to be helped out. Lets bring in meteorologist adam klotz in the fox extreme weather center. So what more is there to come . I told the audience moments ago about this particular category that they have put the twisters in. Reporter you are absolutely right. It continues on, folks at risk. We could be seeing more of what weve already seen. In the last 24 hours, this is a long, slowmoving system. There are reports in the 24 hours, red areas we reported a tornado in portions of georgia, tornadoes continuing to spin up as this line of storms is sweeping across the southeast. Everything highlighted in the red is a tornado watch. It stretches south of tampa all the way up in portions of the carolinas. These are areas were looking at conditions being favorable to seeing tornado development. Its all along the leading line of storms here. I can take you in on it. If youre not in an area of tornadoes, hail up to a quarter inch, powerful storms and you can see almost running along 95 and stretching back off a little farther to the west, getting down towards the tampa area. Any of the red polygons, you are looking at tornado warm storm, the yellow polygons are severe thunderstorms. This is running up along the coast. So not a lot of places for this to go. And georgia running into Central Georgia getting north of the orlando area. There are a lot of powerful cells here. Were targeting florida where there is room for the storms to run their way out. What am i expecting from here on out . Well, were going to continue to track this as it moves through florida. Continue to see Severe Weather running up into the carolinas area. As this lifts farther to the north and it will, folks in washington, d. C. Stretching up to new york are going to begin to see rain by tomorrow, but this rain becoming just rain. This system is weakening but we have to make it from right now through the rest of the evening, thats something were paying very close attention to. Harris thank you, adam, very much. Well come back to you as it warrants if the boxes get bigger or more severe. Right now to tell you about a manhunt in texas. This information is coming in, a shooting at san antonio Shopping Mall. Apparently, two Good Samaritans were caught in the crossfire when they tried to stop the gunmen. And the story unfolding, directly from the police, the details are amazing. Im whatcha doin . Just checking my free credit score at credit karma. What the . Youre welcome. I just helped you dodge a bullet. But i was just checking my. Shhhhh.

Huh, so i guess i could just check my credit score then. Oh check out credit karma today. Credit karma. Give yourself some credit. Sorry about that. Harris now to the story in texas, a Shopping Mall shooting, but the people in the mall were armed and able to defend themselves and everybody else. At least one person is dead, others wounded in san antonio and witnesses say one of the robbers in the mall was desperate to escape. And unleashed a hail of bullets on anybody standing in the way. The San Antonio Police chief explained how it all went down. About what we have sheer a robbery gone really, really bad. There were two individuals that robbed the kay jeweler store, they exited the store and ran to the left and encountered two citizens who tried to intervene. One of the citizens was shot by the suspect. The other citizen who tried to intervene had a concealed carry license and shot the suspect. The suspect was then transported. The second suspect, when the shooting started, he ran through the mall in the other direction, shooting as he ran. Harris rob schmitt has more from the new york city newsroom. Rob, as this news was coming in a short time ago, you jumped on the story, what have you found out . Reporter a wild story. Started with two guys robbing a Jewelry Store in texas making the mistake they are the only ones armed. Two men held up a kay jewelers on the northeast side of san antonio, very nice mall. To their surprise, two of the customers inside the mall, one who was armed, intervened and turned into a shootout right outside of the store. One of the Good Samaritans was shot and killed by one of the thieves. The other Good Samaritan, shot and injured one of the thieves whos been arrested now. His partner did manage to escape and a manhunt is under way for him, so you have one suspect shot and arrested, the other one on the loose. Police say as many as six other people were shot by the suspect who escaped as he ran from the scene. They are all expected to survive. One mall shopper heard six shots fired and watched as people ran from the mall in a panic. Here were going to listen back to the police chief. Absolutely senseless, absolutely senseless. This is the second time that a Good Samaritan was killed trying to intervene in a crime to help the victim. Absolutely senseless. Both Good Samaritans who intervened including the one killed were in their 30s according to police. The one who was armed did so legally with a concealed weapons perm. The search continues for the second suspect who got away, harris. Harris wow, a Good Samaritan losing his life and no way to know how many people that person may have saved along with the other who had a conceal and carry. If anything else pops on this.
