Our apprehensions of family units of aliens of accompanied alien children increasing or decreasing . They are increasing extraordinarily rapidly. Family units went up around 30 from last month. Same for uacs. Those are the two vulnerable populations that are dramatically increasing. Reporter uac is the lynn go for unaccompanied children, which is all part of that surge at the border, dana. Dana theres this other story about this antisemitism resolution in the house. Where does that stand . Reporter expectation was it would be on the house floor today. But after the comments of Congress Woman omar. It has been broadened to include other tpofrpls of discrimination according to sources. Some democrats are expressing frustration. 2019 and its the 21st century. The fact that we have to put a resolution on the floor and spell out for people across this country what antisemitism means is pretty outrageous. Reporter Top Republicans are applying pressure, saying the bill should not be watered down. This is not a time for politics. This is a time for the Democratic Leaders in this institution to do the right thing. They should remove her from the House Foreign Affairs committee. Reporter im told the resolution is being edited based on feed back received during todays House Democratic caucus meeting. Dana . Dana thank you. Michael cohen is back on capitol hill returning for another round of testimony as democrats seek evidence to use against President Trump. Chief intelligence correspondent Catherine Herridge is live at todays closed door hearing. Reporter good afternoon. Michael cohen has been in a secured facility for the better part of 4. 5 hours. This is the third time hes testified in some form in the last two weeks. House democrats are really trying to lay the groundwork and drill down on this 2016 moscow real estate project for a trump tower in russia. They want to set the table for a witness thats coming up for public testimony march 14th. Thats felix stater. He worked directly with Michael Cohen to moscow to pardon me, market the moscow trump tower project. Majority leader looking at these hearings by the democrats are offering democrats a warning. The politics of president ial harassment hasnt worked out too well. I remember when we decided it was a good idea to impeach president clinton and his Approval Rating went up and ours went down. Reporter House Republicans note about the 2016 moscow real estate project that it never came through and sort of the under lying act, this was a business negotiation, doesnt amount to any crime or collusion, dana. Dana then the hill is demanding that the white house turn over information about security clearances from the white house. Especially for ivanka trump and Jared Kushner. Hows that going over . Reporter this seems to be one of the first flash points of this broad and sweeping investigations that has been launched by the House Democrats. As you know, the chairman of the Oversight Committee Elijah Cummings has launched this investigation into the security clearance practices at the white house after reporting that more than two dozen people got top secret security clearances despite reservations of career officials who reviewed their applications. As you noted in the media this week are the allegations against ivanka trump and her husband Jared Kushner and that there was some kind of president ial pressure to try and get them top secret security clearances. For her part, ivanka trump has denied her fathers involvement. We also heard this morning from the White House Press secretary, sarah sanders. As you know, were not gonna comment on security clearances. Thats the policy of the white house. That continues to be the policy of the white house. Were also not gonna get into comments and a back and forth over things that are currently dealing with the oversight. Reporter this is setting the table for House Democrats to make a decision as to whether they want to issue subpoenas and raise the temperature even further on this issue. This is an issue you rightly predicted would come to a head pretty quickly in the new session. Dana its only march 6th. Theyre at it, thats for sure. Catherine herridge, thank you. U. S. Forces capturing hundred of isis terrorists in syria amid the battle to liberate the last civilian village held by the terror group. Jennifer griffin has more from the pentagon. Reporter dana, u. S. Backed Syrian Kurdish forces say they have captured 400 isis fighters as they tried to escape from the last town held by the Islamic State in eastern syria. As the socalled califate nears collapse. In the past few weeks, 10,000 civilians have fled this tiny pocket where isis is making its last stand. The wives of children of isis fighters remain defiant and vowed the fight would continue as they turn themselves in at desert reception centers. They chanted teus the Islamic State will remain. 200 fighters have surrendered raising questions what to do with them. President trump asked the home countries to prosecute them, but their home countries dont want them back. The isis leader remains at large. Dana striking pictures as well. Do the other side of the world, north korea. Rebuilding satellite missile . Reporter experts say this north korean launch pad has been dormant since august following the first summit between President Trump and kim jongun. But new satellite images taken two days after the vietnam summit failed show unusual activity at the launch pad, as south korean lawmakers briefed on the intelligence, cranes, new construction appear at the launch site, where north korea has put satellites into space using Technology Similar to that needed for ballistic missiles. North korea has never launched an icbm from this site. Its important to point that out. But the new acty teufrbty is raising eyebrows. John bolton explained what the administration would do if north korea does not halt nuclear testing. If theyre not willing to do it, President Trump has been very clear, theyre not gonna get relief from the crushing economic sanctions that have been imposed on them. Well look at ramping those sanctions up, in fact. Reporter its not clear whether kim jongun plans to restart Missile Launches if talks fail or whether north korea is building at this new launch site in order to offer to dismantle it down the road. In other words, is this simply a bargaining chip . Dana thank you. We heard breaking news from venezuela as a u. S. Journalist has been arrested. Venezuelan authorities raiding the home of a reporter for wplg, the abc affiliate in miami. His assistant also taken into custody. The staying said its working to get wettle relief.

The billionaire announcing the only hope for Real Progress lies outside of d. C. Howard schultz, who is mulling an independent run, tweeting, quote, bloomberg governed from the center with big ideas, prague pha teufpl and common sense in anary rao af paralysis and dysfunction, hes an exception. I have long said there isnt room for centrist moderation in either party. It appears mr. Bloomberg has come to the same conclusion. Joining me now colin reed, a gop strategist and ty master, great guys, both of you. Let me start with you, colin. Howard schultz said that about Mike Bloomberg, but doesnt it also show Mike Bloomberg came to the conclusion he couldnt win . It was an interesting analogy for him to draw. There is no room for centrists in the Democratic Party. Its why howard schultz, a life long democrat had to run as an independent because there was no room for him in the party. I think wed be kidding ourselves if we thought major bloomberg was not going to play an influence in this campaign season. Hes just gonna do it on the outside. With his unlimited funds, he can have an impact. It will be interesting to see if my democratic friends decry the influence of so called dark money being spent on their behalf. Dana it depends on where you sit, i guess. This is what he said. Until 20201 our only real hope for progress lies outside of washington. Unlike most who are running or thinkingist, im fortunate enough to be in a position to devote the resources needed to bring people together and make a big difference. Is he giving an indication that he thinks President Trump has this in the bag . I dont think thats what the indication is. I think he knows he has billions of dollars. Hes got causes that hes passionate about. Why not go where you can have impact on places Like City Councils and state legislators and local ordinances. So i think its honest. I dont think it shows theres no room for a moderate in the Democratic Party. In iowa there could conceivably be 20 people on the ballot so you could win with 7 on the vote. He just thought, where can i be the most effective . Where can the resources that i have been blessed with do the most good . Dana he certainly had an impact in the mid terms of 2018. I want to ask you about this. That Bernie Sanders has decided he is going to take that pledge. He is going to run as a democrat. Colin, is there anything to this that we should be paying attention to . I actually think its smart politics on senator sanders behalf. Hes taking issues that his political opponents could use against him off the table. One of the constant hits on him for his democrats has been, hes not actually a member of the Democratic Party. Hillary clinton likes talking about that. Now his opponents cant use that against. Senator sanders made that in 2015. In 2018 he ran in vermont as an independent. Hes already declared an independent in 2024. So well see if he actually means it, but i think its smart politics in the short term. Dana do you think Bernie Sanders fits in the Current Democratic Party . I think that hes probably left of where the party is. If you look at where we won the midterms, you had 40 new seats. Very pragmatic. Look, lets be honest where the Democratic Party is. 51 of democrats say the most important quality of a candidate is, can they beat donald trump . That is going to be, theres never been a figure in american politics who is such a lightning rod as weve seen in donald trump. So democratic primary electorate will say, whos got the best shot at making sure this guy doesnt return . Dana yesterday we had the sound from Hillary Clinton saying, shes not gonna run in 2020. Last night there were tweets saying she spoke to someone close with clinton and was in con tack with her today. They say she wasnt trying to be emphatic and close the door on running when she spoke to a local reporter. She was surprised by how definitively it played. She was told her team is waiting at least to see the mueller report. So, colin, is she back possibly on the table . I hope so. I think most republicans hope she runs again, too. Shed be a welcome addition to a crowded field for the republican party. I think its clear, Hillary Clinton still has wounds left from 2016. She an her staff are still airing them out publicly with senator sanders. Probably not productive to the conversation as a whole, but as a republican, its fun to see. Dana what happens inside the Democratic Party . Are people placing bets, is she gonna run or not run . Shes probably one of the most well known figures in our party. One person who seems more obsessed with her than the Democratic Party is donald trump. He keeps reliving 2016. Dana he even tweeted that she will be sorely missed. All right. Guys, i gotta run.
