we can close the los angeles schools today. we can close the los angeles schools tomorrow. but we cannot keep closing schools and malls and having this fear. we must be able to gather the intelligence needed, put the intelligence together, and the lessons are that we must get these attackers before they actually accomplish their goals. before they climb into a plane, before they enter a building with guns and bombs and other tools, to cause havoc. we have to get them in a planning phases. the only way to do that is for politicians to make the tough choices to gather the intelligence that is needed. anyone, any politician especially here in vegas tonight on the stage, talking about keeping americans safe you have to come out with intelligence gathering techniques. if you are having an affair no one cares about listening to your phone calls. if you are having an affair with an isis supporter we do care. all of the hype of not gathering the intelligence we need because of someone's concern of listening to their calls and their civil liberties, we need to gather all of the inte

while in los angeles. and now to hear this bicoastal sort of back and forth, well, it's interesting to see. ahead, how the fbi investigates these sorts of threats and figures out whether they're legitimate or hoekaxes and whetr to take the chance one way or the other because each action, closing schools or leaving them open, each has potential consequences. i'll speak with a man who led all of the borough's counterterrorism investigations live, next. in panama, which is a city of roughly 2 million people, we are having 5,000 new cars being sold every month. this is a very big problem for us with respect to fast and efficient transportation. it's kind of a losing proposition to keep going this way. we are trying to tackle the problem with several different modes. one of them is the brand new metro. we had a modest forecast: 110,000 passengers per day in the first line. we are already over 200,000. our collaboration with citi has been very important from the very beginning. citi was our biggest supporter and

eric garcetti, mayor of the city of los angeles. we are talking about the unified school district of los angeles. over half a million students who started their day with word that there would be no school today. robocalls went out to all the known numbers for all the adult households representing all of the students in l.a. unified schools this morning. not all those calls went out as planned. not all of them were received and not all of those calls came in in time. for a lot of families, working parents, long distances to cover on the way to school, long bus routes, the children had already left home. now really, if you are a working parents with no other choice, you say work in the center of the city in l.a., home is a long way away, you have to rely on the good hearts and hands of neighbors and friends to take care of one another on a day like this. the threat came in in the early morning hours and to our folks, let me know if pete williams is available in our d.c. newsroom. pete is available. pete, you can help me run through an

miguel is in our los angeles bureau. interestingly, in the burbank section of los angeles, which along with beverly hills and glendale i understand is not part of l.a. unified and that also includes all the parochial and private schools. >> reporter: yeah, the neighboring school districts have all tweeted out that they are closely monitoring and watching the situation in the l.a. unified school district but they too are not closing down schools. they say they are only watching at this point. security has been beefed up at some of those schools. we also know lapd has sent in some of their officers to some of the schools that have been closed down just as a precaution as students are turned away. as you mentioned, they are certainly taking this very seriously. i guess you could say the tone here is a bit different, maybe because we are proximity to san bernardino, the terrorist attacks less than two weeks ago just 65 miles out of downtown los angeles. so as you mentioned, when you are listening to local media here in los a

quickly now to los angeles. a news conference by, among others, the superintendent of schools, ramon cortinez, about the momentous and first time ever decision there today to close all the schools in the l.a. unified school district. >> based on past circumstances, i could not take the chance as it relates to one student or our staff that served our students. it is important that in the last four hours, this city, this community, has come together on behalf of our students. our students that are in the regular schools, our students that are in the charter schools, that are authorized by this school board. we are taking all sorts of precaution. our plant managers are walking the campus with law enforcement people. our plant managers and principals with law enforcement are looking at all of our schools, both small, large schools, et cetera. we have made sure that our parents are notified through connect ed messages and we have repeated that time and time again. those students that walk to school, especially young

we have los angeles going to be shut down. we are shut down in los angeles. total disruption for the entire city. i have to believe that the administration will respond to this and do something more than what they are doing now. >> i am sorry. i disagree with you. what we get from the president is a speech. we have our proposal that allows him to look like he is doing something. rather than fundamental changes. >> we have seen it up close. we know what it looks like. two speeches in which he reviews his policy. >> i just do not get it. i really do not. >> i would love to be wrong. >> steve hayes. a pleasure. i appreciate you being with us. i will take you briefly to the markets. we have a rally going on here. a rate hike from the federal reserve. most people think it will be a miniscule hike. mostly symbolic. price of oil is up as well. thirty-six, almost $37 per barrel. the los angeles school emergency closure. this could be a terror threat.sy that is what we're hearing. the latest developments in a moment. ♪ opens your nose up to 38% more than cold medici

he has seen this threat that was e-mailed to the los angeles schools. he is also a congressman from california. congressman, thank you for taking the time to speak with us. can you tell us what you saw in the e-mail and can you be specific? >> well, there are two issues here. first, the person making the threat claims to be ace to a boy at the person who wrote it has any particular understanding of islam. so this could be sent by an extremist jihadist, but it could also be sent by someone with a different agenda. the second issue is that this person claims that they are going to, that, you know, that they are prepared to take terrible action today. at least some of the details of the e-mail lack credibility that he has 32 accomplices, and that is to agent. i'd be very surprised if that part of the threat was true. so it may be there's some part of the threat that is true, and acting in an abbundance of caution makes a lot of sense, and maybe it was sent by someone who or maybe it was sent by somebody else. >> so i want to be clear on the extraordinary d

to target a school in the los angeles area. a high school. for whatever reason that never came through or their plans to this other attack, we don't know the order of events. we know the school was targeted. do you think that once in the authorities's mind when they opted to do what they did? >> possibly. note in that case if they did target a school there was no warning about that's a typical jihadists operation, method of operation. they are not going to warn people, there were no warnings in this particular case that may have played into today's decision. neil: we are getting more on the nature of the threat. the ferret me the school district spokesman was saying the threat was sent by e-mail to district board member from an ip address they trace to frankfurt, germany. if it is true new york police commissioner bill bratton got the same threat or was aware of the same threat presumably from the same ip address in germany, he dismissed it for a variety of reasons. we are taking leaps, one to dismiss and the other not. frankfurt, germany loc

this is affecting los angeles county which is much bigger than los angeles city. we are talking about 12 million people in the county of los angeles. again, hundreds of thousands of students and none are here at this tellmentry school this morning. >> i think that's probably going to be the case for the remainder of the day. once again, 7:38 a.m. are you seeing -- because they're asking that students that are already at the schools be -- congregate in a specific gate where the parents can pick them up. you aren't seeing any movement in where you are at least, right? >> no, i'm not. i'm going to walk right now as i talk with you down the corner to see if there are any parents starting to come in. again, normally at this time of day this street would be starting to fill up with parents and -- students of parents and their kids coming to school. obviously the message has gotten out. we'll see in a little bit, the crossing guard is no longer at his post where he was earlier this morning. so it's very quiet here outside this school and i think that's because of this al

but the schools are closed in los angeles. >> remember the los angeles school district has the largest private security team ofvu anywhere in the country. >> we reviewed the threat and contacted the fbi. and we worked jointly with the joint terrorism task force to vet that threat and to be able to give the school board and the superintendant our best advice on moving forward. now, we're able to do that. the superintendant made the decision and we support the decision as does the mayor. i would say this to people who are critical. it is very easy in hindsight to criticize a decision ways withed on results that the decider could not have known. it is easy to criticize a decision when you have no responsibility for the outcome of that decision. the school district safe guards three- quarters of a million lives every day. when they make a decision, they have to take into the account of safety of the children of los angeles. it is irresponsible based on facts that are yet to be determined to criticize that decision at this point. all of us make tough choices and same goal in mind. and we w

as a result of that threat, the los angeles school police department, as well as los angeles police department and the fbi were notified and, right now, the threat is still being analyzed. in abundance of caution superintendent cortinez hasn't indicated we chosen to close our schools today until we can be absolutely sure that our campuses are safe and until it is deemed safe by law enforcement. and concurred with our district officials which we believe will be able to occur by the end of this day, we will keep those schools closed. the investigation is ongoing. i'm not going to get into the details. i do want to say this. this is important. that the threat that was received as far as l.a. unified school district was concerned, pertained to the l.a. unified school district. i know there has been many calls. i can tell you that we know of no other threats we're aware of, unless other agencies have gotten into specifics outside of lausd that this pertains to the threats that we got to our schools only. we do not know any other information about any other threats within the county region at this t

so did los angeles say everything that they knew what was going on? the other issue to be considered is southern california is still reeling from the san bernardino shooting, and it was the biggest terrorist attack in the u.s. since 9/11, which one of the locations was new york. and there is a certain element there that believe that they really need to leave nothing to chance. and in this particular case new york may have some intelligence and some information that they are not saying or sharing or talking about. but what we can say is each one of them has taken the action that they thought was appropriate and necessary to deal with what is going on in their communities, but we may not know all that is going none their communities, which is bringing different reaction. >> what would be the nature, the hallmarks of the type of threat that would trigger such a reaction like this? clearly threats are a common occurrence, and this one is being taken so seriously in los angeles. >> that was the issue here. there is something there that made authorities fee
