Of floor on top of floor left very few void or pockets where somebody could theoretically survive. Days of rubble fire. All that smoke. 8 days of rain followed by that searing South Summer Heat and ultimately just simply the length of time since the collapse. But the Recovery Effort is really picking up speed. 8 bodies recovered from the rubble yesterday. Another 10 recovered overnight. These are the two highest numbered days for the Recovery Effort as sundays implosion of the fragile remaining half of the building appears to have really helped the search teams on site with greater access. New video taken by Miamidade Rescue shows the work with power saws, pick actions, sometimes on their knees, digging through the pulverized concrete see the Pool Deck suspected of playing a role in the collapse. Total collapse. Total collapse. Everything has fallen down. Impassable. My next door neighbors yelling help me, help me, get me out. Impossible. That Survivor Steve Rosen hall who herredly fearing his half of the billing was also about to collapse. He lost just about everything just like all the other survivors. This is the closest Miamidade County Fire and rescue has allowed us to come to what was surfside Champlain Towers South. The Condo Building 135 units, and 12 stories tall now a massive pile of tons and tons of concrete, steel, and rebar which you can see poking out of the building. For Survivor Rosenthal the life changing experience of surviving this is still, for him, very hard to fathom. I cant describe it i cant there is no adjective. Its surreal when another level times another level. Everything was shaking . Everything was shaking. It was insane. Thats all i can say. Unless you were there, you cant understand it. You cant comprehend it. You really are lucky to be alive, do you think . Its a miracle. Today is day 14 on the pile for these formerly Search And Rescue teams which are now going to be recovery teams. The number one priority right now is to help provide closure for the families of the missing. Mike . Mike we expect an update from officials there in the next five to 10 minutes.

Apparently his warning to vladimir putin at the recent summit did not sink. In national Security Correspondent Jennifer Griffin takes a Look at the Numbers Tonight from the pentagon. President biden wrapped up his meeting in the Situation Room to address the latest Ransomware Attacks before leaving for chicago. He was asked if he had a message for vladimir putin. While the president was cryptic about how he plans to respond, the administration says its handling it. The president takes Cyber Activity, malicious Cyber Activity on any entity in the united states whether its the rnc, whether its other private sector entities, very seriously. And he did not mince words when he met with president putin. Since the president met with putin last month there have been an average of 3600 Ransomware Attacks in the u. S. The amount of ransomS Paid jumped by 300 percent in 2020. Just this week the rnc said one of its software Providers Sin next had been hacked by the same hackers linked to russian intelligence behind the 2016 hack into the dnc. The rnc says none of its data was stolen. The hack was launched about the same time as a separate russian 17 countries by breaking into a miami based Software Provider and demanding 70 million. Democrats and republicans are urging the president to respond. We do have a lot of capabilities and we need to be utilizing them. Some of this is has been going on for years. And i think some of this iS Putin testing the new administration. This is a Force Multiplier for the bad guys and its clear that it came from russia. And its hard to imagine a scenario whereby russia, the government of russia didnt know what was going on here, so, therefore, its incumbent upon President Biden to have a very forceful response. Cyber experts say President Bidens red lines from geneva are being challenged and the president is going to need to send a message to establish deterrents.

Through Rain And Flooding we watched as group after group crossed illegally into the united states. Many of them women and small children with most of the migrants telling us they are from honduras and guatemala. As we drove down the road a short time later. Another large group of migrants was crossing illegally into the u. S. Looking to give themselves up to Border Patrol. All of these groups having no problem just walking around the nearby incomplete border wall. Construction of which was immediately halted when President Biden took office. Building materials left abandoned and rusting out in the open field. About 150 migrants crossed illegally in a span of just 90 minutes in front of us in La Jolla this morning.

Border agents on the ground tell us there has been a serious uptick in the amount of migrants testing positive for covid and there have been more than 7,000 infections at migrant holding facilities since april. The current administration has issued a series of memorandums and policy changes that change the Law And Policy does not supersede the law and all were asking for is them to do their job.

Bill greene outside the Trump Bedminster Golf club in new jersey. Good evening, lauren. Good evening, mike. Former President Donald Trump is challenging these Social Media giants in court claiming the big companies operate more like big government and should be subject to constitutional free speech rules. It will be a pivotal battle in the will. In the end im confident we will achieve historic victory for american freedom. Trump announced today at his Golf Course in bedminster, new jersey, a Class Action Lawsuit against Mark Zuckerberg Founder of facebook. Jack dorsey, founder of twitter, and Sundar Pick could i of google surrounded by people whose accounts like trumps have been deleted or suspended. Former president said big Tech Giants have become too powerful controlling and dictating what voice should be censored. The lawsuit claims that even though the Social Media giants are private companies they rely on a Government Provision which shields them from accountability. And the Suit Filing says the companys Exhibit Willful Participation in joint activity with federal actors and as such the defendant is constrained by the first Amendment Right to free speech in the Censorship Decisions it makes regarding its users. This will be, i think, will go down as the biggest Class Action ever filed because thousands of people want to join. Now, trump has been banned from these Web Sites since january 7th. Thats the day after the capitol hill riot. Now, we have reached out to the Social Media giants. So far only twitter has responded saying they have no comment on the case. Mike . Mike Lauren Green live in bedminster, new jersey, lauren, thanks a lot. Dozens of u. S. State attorneys general Filing Lawsuit against google. According to reuters. Filed for the northern district of california. The states have been expected to file a lawsuit saying that the Search And Advertising giant violates Antitrust Law in running its app. Store for android unphones. And lets go back to surfside, florida where officials are giving an update this hour. They are about to talk about it shifting from a Rescue Operation to a recovery mission. Were here on the evening of day 14. Our tireless Search And Rescue teams have continued efforts throughout the past day and we are very grateful that the weather has allowed us to continue the work without any further delays. And through these efforts, we have recovered 8 more victims. So the total number of confirmed deaths is now at 54. 33 of those victims have been identified and 33 Next Of Kin notifications have been made. At this time 200 people have been accounted for. And 86 people are potentially unaccounted for. So, please join me in praying for those we have lost and those we are mourning. As i have continued to stress, the miamidade Police Department is working continuously to follow up and verify all of the accounts that they have received of people who are potentially missing and to determine whether each person reported was in fact in the building during the collapse. And are detectives simultaneously are working around the clock to identify those victims we have found in order to notify Next Of Kin. It is with deep profound sadness that this afternoon im able to share that we made the extremely difficult decision to transition from operation Search And Rescue to recovery. Its now been exactly two weeks since Champlain Towers South collapsed and over the last 14 days you all know that our Search And Rescue teams from our local community, from around florida, from around the country and, in fact, Around The World have been digging through this collapse. They have used every possible strategy and every piece of technology available to them. To find people in the rubble. They have removed over 7 Milliod Debris from the mound. They have used sonar, cameras, dogs, heavy machinery. They have searched for void spaces and they have searched for victims. They ran into a building they were told could collapse. And they braved fires, smoke, torrential rain, and strong winds in the hopes of finding people alive. We demolished the standing building in just days in order to be able to expand access to the full collapse site. Our top priority throughout this entire operation since day one, has been to do everything possible, everything humanly possible and to explore every single portion of the collapsed grid in search of survivors. I could not be prouder of our extraordinary team, the Men And Women from here at home and from Around The World who have given this Search Everything they have day in and day out. Men and women whose own lives are driven by a single purpose, to save the lives of others. At thiS Point we have truly exhausted every option available to us in the Search And Rescue mission. So today is about beginning the transition to recovery so that we can help to bring closure to the families who have been suffering and waiting for news. Nothing we can do can bring back those we have lost, but we can and we will do everything in our power possible to identify all of the victims and to offer closure to the families in this time of unimaginable grief. To share this news with the families this evening who are still missing their Loved Ones was devastating. And its also difficult to share it with all of you. So many who have been watching Around The World, who have joined their prayers, who held out hope as we have hoped in our hearts, and in quiet moments for a miracle. We have all asked god for a miracle. So the decision to transition from rescue to recovery is an extremely difficult one. And one that requires an extremely methodical, arduous, and careful process that Looks at specific factors. Chief common Ski And Assistant chief will speak to all of these in more detail. The transition from rescue to recovery will take place at midnight tonight. Our team has developed a very detailed plan to guide the transition and to ensure that the operationS Proceed at the same speed and intensity. After Todays Press Briefing at 7 15 p. M. , we will be marking this transition with a Moment Of Silence in front of the Building Site with our teams of First Responders and state leaders, First Responders will come off the Pile And Faith leader will join us and we are inviting you as members of the media to witness this ceremony, not as members of the media but in your capacity as citizens.

Mike the head of the nations largest Teachers Union is getting both Support And Pushback tonight after expressing her determination to allow educator to teach critical Race Theory. That theory links racial discrimination to americas foundations and legal system. We get the latest tonight from correspondent Anita Vogel. Critical Race Theory is not taught in Elementary Schools or middle schools or high schools. The president of one of the countrys largest Teachers Unions insists cr. It is only taught in College And Law school. But in the same breath, Randi Weingarten pledged to protect educators rights to teach what she calls honest History And Today while touring a washington, d. C. Elementary school with first lady jill biden, Weingarten Bothed her union has the support of 1600 pennsylvania avenue. We have a lot of work to do there is real iniquities to tackle but together we can support Each Other because we also know there is an administration in washington, d. C. That has our back. While many liberalminded educators believe in teaching the controversial curriculum, critics say its not only brainwashing children to believe america is inherently racist but its also dumbing down basic lessons. There is something called the pathway to equitable math claims that addressing studenters, focusing on getting the right answer requiring students to show their work is a form of white supremacy. Now, this insanity. I teach that 1 and 1 is 2. Im not a racist. Concerned parents are also calling out the program saying students should be taught lessons free of politics and opinions. Our kids need to be taught mathematics, english, reading, writing, those things are what teachers are supposed to be teaching our kids. Life issues are our jobs as a parent . There is also reporting today suggesting while the national Education Association just a few days ago adopted a plan to share, publicize and defend critical Race Theory, the item has disappeared from the website overnight. But certainly the issue is not going away any time soon. Mike . Mike Anita Vogel here in washington. Anita, thanks a lot. Stocks were up, the dow gained 104. The S P 500 up 15.

Mike tonight we Look at an effort by some in congress to save minor League Baseball. Teams across the country, many of them in small or medium sized up toes are still suffering from last yearS Pandemicrelated cancellations and down sizing from Major League teams. Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram has the Story Tonight from fredericksburg, virginia. More than 600 days without a batter. Leading off the Nationals Number 8 jackson more than a year without defense. [cheers] months without fans. Enjoy it let the fun begin. The pandemic was a double whammy for the fredericksburg nationals, Farm Team of the washington nationals. If you build it, they will come they said in field of dreams, yet, when they build a new stadium for 2020, No One came. Its quite a blow, you know, to be ready to open a ballpark. The community being ready for it not happening is hard. The financial impact is going to last for a number of years. The Minor Leagues lost 92 of all revenue in 2020. In addition to all these seats being vacant last year, that meant there were no popcorn sales, Hot Dog sales, and beer sales. Bipartisan lawmakers wrote the minor League Baseball Relief Act that would award teams grants to recoup losses. You could argue that the federal Government Shouldnt be involved in helping restaurants or helping a local theater or helping a music venue. Exclude minor League Ball from that group. Warner hopes to pass the ball by thanksgiving but not everyone is game. Let them play. Let them play. Most big league teams dont own minor league franchises thats why many people believe small teams need help. We dont have Billionaire Owners these are small community owners. Those owners are welcoming back the fans. Do you have a favorite food that you eat . Cotton candy. Im here for the tacos. And baseball. Cold beer and baseball. I like just watching the game. It is said that there are only two types of seasons, Baseball Season and winter. The question now is whether congress can help minor League Baseball recover from the darkest of seasons. The pandemic.

I would not be so hard on Lori Lightfoot or Superintendent Brown if they would stop saying they a plan. Whatever plan they have, the plan is not working. President biden was in illinois today, met with mayor Lori Lightfoot, violence in major cities including chicago, a huge concern right now. Lets bring in our panel byron york, chief political correspondent of the Washington Examiner Jonathan swan national political reporter for axios and Jonah Goldberg Editor and chief of the dispatch, gentlemen, welcome. Byron, your thoughts on the Crime Problem we are seeing in major Cities Coast to coast . Well, we just heard Mayor Lightfoot saying she is doing absolutely everything that can be done. And thats just selfevidently not true. Now, lately she and the Police Chief have taking to blaming some judges, some of the courts for bonding out for freeing violent suspects and Theres Something to that. Thats really part of the problem. But, they are focused totally democrats, Mayor Lightfoot, the biden administration on the question of guns. And if you listen to President Bidens Crime Address a while back, it was just democratic same old same old. We have got to get Assault Weapons out of the hands of criminals. The fact is long gunS Play a very, very small part in the Violence Crisis in chicago. Its handguns. Handguns all over the place. So, democrats do not seem to be equipped to deal with the problem they are facing right now. Mike at the White House Jen Psaki suggested some of this is seasonal. Take a listen. The president continues to work to address violent crime. We have seen rage go up around the country including in the city of chicago. We see spikes in violent crime typically during summer months often unfortunately during holiday weekends. We saw that over the last weekend. Mike jonathan, your thoughts . Well, crime is the last thing that the biden White House want to be talking about. The only context in which they wanted to be talking about crime in bidens first year aS President in the context of criminal Justice Reform and increased accountability for Police Officers. But the homicide rates that are increasing in cities across the country have forced this issue on to their plate. And, you know, what i have learned from my reporting is that there are several democrats quite influential in the Party Close to the White House who have been urging them, actually, for months that they need to get in front of this issue. That this issue is salient with voters and, in fact, many believe who analyze the polling that the defund the Police Issue helped republicanS Pick up seats in the house in the 2020 election and is a real political liability for Joe Biden even though he himself has said that he doesnt support defunding the police. So, the fact that the White House is talking about this issue and trying to kind of frame it on their own terms is revealing in and of itself because its not something they want to talk about. They want to be talking about covid and vaccines and the economy all day long. Mike jonah, obviously the biggest impact is this these communities where violence is way up. But what about the political impact . Yeah. First of all, i really like the Talking Point that its seasonal. If its seasonal, that means itS Predictable and maybe you should have been ready for it rather than taken by surprise for it. But, more broadly, i think this is one of the lowest Hanging Fruits that could be possibly in front of Joe Biden. He actually has a record about putting more cops on the street. Going back to the crime bill, the Rank And File democratic voters are way to the right of the sort of blue Checkmark Twitter Crowd that seems to drive the messaging in all of this stuff and the d. C. Media elites, the average democratic voter cares a lot about crime. We just saw that in New York city. He could very easily send a signal breaking with the people of stranglehold democratic party take take a popular position and taking Border Crime seriously. Mike even though mississippi the middle of summer critical Race Theory in the classroom. LetS Play this clip. Randi weingarten is talking about critical Race Theory as if its fact. It is not fact. It is a theory. Culture warriors are labeling any discussion of race, racism, or discrimination as crt to try to make it toxic. We teach history, not hate. Being taught specifically that White People are bad. The way you constantly hit our kids in the head with White People did this. White people did this black people did this. Black people did that. Hispanic people did this. Hispanic people did that. They tend to foment those thoughts of hate. Mike Randi Weingarten calling it honest history. Byron, lead us off. Well, i think the Teachers Unions are continuing their effort to become the most unpopular group in america after a year showing that they did not want to be in classrooms teaching children, now they are taking this side on the crt debate. And, besides, Randi Weingarten says the union has a large War Chest to file suit against State Legislators and localities that ban critical Race Theory. But those are groups, legislatures, localities that do have the right, the responsibility to help set School Curricula. And, by the way, not everything is allowed in. Remember huckleberry finn to kill a mockingbird. What about dr. Suess stuff, controlling what is in School Curricula is what local authorities do without lawsuits from the American Federation Of Teachers. Mike jonathan, your thoughts . Well, this issue, it i have been trying to understand from the republican Point Of View why they see it as such a good issue politically. I still havent seen enough raw Polling And Focus group to put my finger on it whats clear from what we do know its definitely an issue that resonates with republican voters. And what republicans who are running from office believe its going to be an issue that effects swing voters and suburban women. Some of these groups that they have drifted away from the republican party during the trump years. Certainly any time i talk to a candidate who is running for office and theyre the ones spending a ton of money on the research and data, they see this as one of the most positive issues they have. Im watching it closely from that perspective. Mike jonah, your thoughts . I think jonathan is right. We have seen Mass Exodus of what were once traditional republican voters, suburban night, married couples raising college educated they have fled the republican party to vote for Joe Biden and this seems like one of the very few issues that can pull some of them back while also still holding onto the sort of more trumpafied base. It makes sense that republicans are going after it. Its also true that some of them are exaggerating and true that the left is exaggerating the Core Issue about treating people equally the republicans are on the right side of it and smart politics for them to be on it.
