Bret okay. Good evening. Im bret baier. Startling new numbers showing a dramatic increase in the number of individuals that may be on the Terror Watch List caught trying to enter this country illegally since 2021. The latest figures dont even account for the known gotaways. Those folks that slipped in to the country undetected. This comes amid a serious accusation on Capitol Hill from a Highranking Border Official of interference by the bidenharris administration. The former chief of the San Diego Border Patrol says he was muzzled from discussing concerns about terrorism. Griff jenkins start us off with this. Good evening, griff. Good evening. This is the stuff that keeps the chief of the Border Patrol up at night, the growing threat of a terrorist slipping across our Border. 382 individuals whose names appear on the Terror Watch List were stopped trying to cross the Border from year 2021 to date. This is compared to the 11 individuals apprehended between 2017 and 2020. Stats show a mo
Can you believe it . Rachel maddow on bravo. Never thought i would see the day. For all of our colleagues across the networks of nbc news, thanks for staying up late with me. Ill see you at The End of tomorrow. Today started with bomb shell news. Last monday, Jd Vances Team contacted officials in Springfield Ohio to Fact Check claims on haitian immigrants eating pets. Springfield City Manager told vances people pointblank there was no verifyable evidence of immigrants eating pets. The claims were baseless, but still, Jd Vance repeated them online. And the next day, trump used one of the biggest platforms in the world, an american president ial debate, to push the claims again. Claims the campaign knew were lies. The new reporting from the Wall Street Journal should be devastating to the trump campaign. But the stunning thing is they probably wont care.

Dangerous for Everybody And America is bankrolling that. And then there is the naked political reality that anything that benefits netanyahu in this period is not necessarily going to benefit Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are democrats in this period. You are talking about Vladimir Putin who wants Donald Trump to win. Benjamin netanyahu wants Donald Trump to win. The differences the biden administration is in many ways helping Benjamin Netanyahu providing him the impunity to do things that wind up with Killing Palestinians and lebanese and endangering israelis but also increase the possibility of Donald Trump pain president. Then there is just the whole human told. There is the expectation that there is going to be retaliation on the part of hezbollah and i wonder how you are girding yourself as we are in this strange interregnum period. I guess there could be more explosions tomorrow, but as we and global Community Sit and wait for retaliation from hezbollah for taxes real began. The bi
Soft and america has beaten back the unprecedented economic challenges of the global pandemic and the ensuing disruption to the economy. It is proof that the biden economic recovery has been nothing short of miraculous. Especially given the mess he inherited from trump and the u. S. Outperformed every other country on earth. Trump like so many republicans before him has enjoyed a pulling advantage with voters over the economy. That may be changing. Multiple polls in recent weeks suggesting harris is closing the gap and possibly even leading trump on economic issues. Harris has been helped by trumps inability to feign caring about the expenses of americans as he proved earlier this month with that rambling answer to that direct question in New York. It was Word Salad but with one under noticed but toxic ingredient that deserves more attention. If you take it in november, can you commit to making childcare affordable and if so what specific legislation will you advance . Childcare is chi

Its any town usa, the conservative Eisenhower Ideal of an american town with white Picket Fence and white nuclear families with 2. 5 children this is the springfield that matters to Trump And J. D. Vance. A symbol that has nothing to do with the reality of springfield, the actual story of springfield, ohio, is that it sprang into existence because of funding from the federal government and the building of the nations first highway. It was first settled by irish immigrants in the 1800s, then german immigrants, then Black Americans heading north because of the great migration.
