We appreciate your time. Im dion lim. For all of us here, thanks so much for inviting us tonight, right here, President Trump on why he suddenly called off the attack on iran. After iran shot down that u. S. Drone, the president says the u. S. Was cocked and loaded. Saying, ten minutes before the strike, i stopped it. Tonight, the president in his own words. What changed his mind. Martha raddatz with late reporting. The massive explosions in philadelphia. The largest refinery on the east coast going up in flames. The blasts felt for miles. Families told to shelter in place. The driver who felt the heat wash over his car. Were live on the scene tonight. Authorities just a short time ago in the Dominican Republic coming before the cameras, explaining why tourists have died. Pushing back, saying there are no mysterious deaths. As tonight we now learn of another american tourist who died there. The new surveillance showing the brutal assault on tsa

legislative language isn t final just yet. there had been hope the house would vote tuesday. that s unlikely now. zero taxes now have to pay their share. i don t think there is anything wrong with that. i think we ll get it done. there has been a lot of hard work, a lot of discussion, a lot of people listening to each other and hopefully we ll get this done next week. house democratic leaders want to move the bill as soon as possible. they don t want to tempt fate with such narrow margins in the house and senate. the house just needs to vote on the infrastructure bill. it has already debated that plan. then the house and senate would be in alignment. the senate approved that bill in early august. bill: going to be a long week. thank you. martha: let s bring in marc thiessen and get his thoughts. the third time at-bat for this infrastructure and social spending human infrastructure part of the bill. you could read about 17 different things this morning that tell you it is gettin
proposal, talking about things like a federal paid leave system, two years of free community college, things that did not make it into the final framework of this bill. you can see how world leaders see it in that sense, this isn t final until the deal is passed through congress that could be part of that skepticism. but you are seeing the white house say these world leaders understand dmoeftic politics, they understand what is happening back in the united states. they deal with similar things. they are the ones that set the standard, the president needed to have this deal on his hands when he got to rome and when he arrived overnight he did not have that deal in his hands. i want to point out now, live pictures there, president biden arriving to meet with italian leaders. the white house is doing its fw best to spin this as a positive. we did not see an infrastructure vote yesterday. we re seeing another delay. we re seeing further confirmation of the infighting and in many i was mi
is just that. a framework that isn t final. we spent hours and hours and hours over months and months working on this. no one got everything they wanted including me. reporter: biden arguing this agenda including universal pre-k, hundreds of billions to fight climate change, and a one-year extension of the child tax credit, is what his supporters want. the agenda in these bills is what 81 million americans voted for. reporter: but the latest version is missing several major campaign promises. from free community college to lower drug prices to a federal paid leave system. the american families plan will finally provide up to 12 weeks of paid leave and medical leave, family medical leave. reporter: as the president made his pitch progressive democrats argued it was incomplete. what you don t want to see is the infrastructure bill pass and then not have the kind of build back better bill we need. reporter: senator bernie sanders providing cover to progressives as senator
