They call that nonsense. John 100 americans remained stranded. The taliban reportedly preventing at least six aircraft at an airport, mazaresharif, from taking off. Sandra one week since biden most recent comments about that withdrawal. The White House as efforts to rescue americans left behind are still underway. John former green Beret Michael Waltz is standing by to join us. Sandra but first, Peter Doocy is live there in washington. Sandra, good afternoon. The White House says americans want to leave afghanistan but cant because the taliban will not let them, not part of a hostage situation. No, that is not what we would characterize it as. Those are comments made by a republican congressman this weekend. They are not hostages, and we know that this White House does not like to use the term stranded. We have been able to identify a relatively small number of americans seeking to depart from mazaresharif. We have been assured that all american citizens and afghan citizens with valid Travel Documents will be allowed to leave. To that end, the taliban was aware that those americans were evacuating and did not impede their travel. But the State Department is also claiming that the u. S. Facilitated that saved a project, which the people who actually went and got those american say it is not true. We were told by the State Department official here, hey, im sorry. The taliban issued an order because they are late to establish their government. Nothing more that we could do. So the u. S. Is continuing to coordinate with the taliban. Leaders on the ground, trying to form their new government. And the head of security, interior security is reportedly a number of the unknown global Terrorism Group with a 5 Million u. S. Bounty on his head. Sandra thank you. John. John for more on this, lets bring in michael waltz, and a former green beret. Multiple tours of duty in afghanistan. Congressman, always good to see you. Thank you. John he says it was him and his team of private veterans who got this group out. However, heres what the State Department set about this on monday. The u. S. Has facilitated the safe departure of four u. S. Citizens from afghanistan. Upon their arrival, they were in good condition. Taliban was aware and did not impede their transit. Nothing about Corey Mills and his team. Sounds like the State Department did it all by themselves. What do you think . Think god for these organizations. We can go down the list. They really stepped up and stepped into this void in a chaotic situation and were guiding people, literally on the phone with them along with congressional offices around taliban checkpoints, getting them to the right places, facilitating contacts inside of kabul international. If it were not for them, i think we would have far, far fewer people that Got Out and far more that are now held behind enemy lines, stranded, hostage, whatever term that the State Department wants to put on it, but at The End of the day, we have to take a step back. Nobody should be embarrassed. This isnt about taking credit. The State Department and the Defense Department should be working hand in glove with these organizations and Publicprivate Partnership about getting the job done. They should be focused in and getting americans out and not worried about who, you know, who did what. Thats really disappointing to hear from our own government. So many of these groups feel like they had to fight through our own bureaucracy to get the job done, rather than working with them, and thats the mode we should be taken going forward. John here is what cory mills, by the way, who wants to join you, he said the State Department was now help. They were told by the State Department hey, were sorry. The border is totally locked down. And it was through some ingenuity and a little bit of deception that he and his team were able to get them out. Listen to what he told us this morning. It was our team that was able to trick the taliban commander to let them through. We convince them that the leadership had approved of it. John meanwhile, saying that the taliban said the border is closed. Here are the State Department did meet them when they crossed into a third country, but if it were not for mills and a lot of these other groups, there would still be a lot of people stuck in the country. Well, thats absolutely right. And i can tell you how frustrating it is for me, other members of congress, republican and democrat, and these groups. When you hear Jen Psaki or Secretary Blinken saying that we notified them 19 times, gave them ample warning. When you send an email and say youre on your own to get through taliban lines and to get to the Kabul Airport and given 30 minutes notice, thats unacceptable. The fact is we pulled all of our military out. We should have been going out and getting americans, not telling them while, get there if you can. These veterans, many of them i talk to you, quit their jobs or are on leave, doing whatever it takes, and they are not going to quit. This is ongoing, not just for americans but are afghan allies that we promised we would get out. They are not going to stop. Engage these groups, have them into your office, celebrate the victory together, have a Publicprivate Partnership going forward. We have no diplomats on the ground. All you really have of these private organizations that are stepping in with their own money, time, and resources to get the job done. John meantime, there were some six aircraft reportedly stuck on the Ground And Mazaresharif that were not able to take off. There were some people on board that did not have the proper documentation to get out. So much for u. S. Leverage over the taliban that the president claimed that we would have. Here is a question for you. Blinken is Coming Up to the house foreign affairs committee. What do you want to hear from him . You know what i want to hear . Not so much me. All of these veterans, we have 13 new ones now. Victims of 9 11 as we head into the 20th Anniversary. Who is going to stand up and say i screwed up . This was on me. This did not go right. Instead, we hear officials, including the president , saying a lot of happy talk. This was a record evaluation. Who is going to take responsibility . Publicly and officially. This was a chaotic disaster thats going to be a stain on the united states. These groups that were so badly affected, their psyches and their souls, for years to come here thats what we want to hear. Accountability. John congressman, i apologize to you. And our audience. I chuckled when he said that because i do not expect that will happen. The president said the buck stops with him but it was all donald trumps fault. Congressman, thank you again. Well, there you have it. Its going to be interesting monday and tuesday when the secretary gets up there. And for what i believe will be some spirited questioning. Sandra youve got both sides of the aisle, democrats and republicans alike outraged over what is happening, trying to get the stranded americans out. We will have Dan Hoffman joining us next hour on that as well. And Day One of proceedings for a legend 9 11 mastermind, Khalid Sheikh mohammed, wrapping up earlier today in Guantanamo Bay, cuba. Defense and prosecution teams will resume questions with the new judge overseeing this case tomorrow. He was joined by four codefendants just days before the 20th Anniversary of the September 11th attacks. The legal process has been delayed for years. Most recently because of covid. The Start Date for the actual trial has not been set yet. If convicted, they could face the death penalty. John President Biden is visiting New York and New Jersey to assess the devastation caused by hurricane ida, unleashing leaving at least 50 people dead across the region and millions of dollars in damage. Manville New Jersey where the president is on the ground. Alex, whats the situation there where you are . Hi, john. As you can see, it is completely covered with debris.

Across the state, 27 people died. Most of them swept away, drowning in their cars. John. John its going to take a long time for people to recover. You are saying on our daily Conference Call that a lot of folks in your neighborhood has been hit hard. Sandra all around. These areas outside the city here.

Liberty, liberty, liberty, Liberty John its crunch time for democrats on Capitol Hill a Time Running Out to pass the massive budget plan, but will squabbles and the party and President Bidens Dwindling Plumbing Numbers again in the way of that . Our panel discusses in just a moment. A strange twist in the south Carolina Murder mystery. A lawyer from a prominent family who found his Wife And Son shot that back in june calling police over the weekend to report a Bullet Wound to his head. A day after he says he resigned from his Law Firm but was actually apparently kicked out. Alex murdaugh announced he is going to go to rehab. His former partners say he took money from the business. It might amount to millions of dollars. Murdaugh Wife And Son were killed back in june. No arrests have been made in that case. The web of intrigue around this just keeps getting wider and wider and thicker and thicker. Nancy grace will be joining us to try to unravel some of it. Sandra we will have her dig and do towel on top of the hour for sure. Facing political headwinds as we move our way through september, including tight deadlines on Capitol Hill, sinking Poll Numbers. We bring in Jason Chaffetz and leslie marshall. Both will hopefully give us their sides of The Story. How do you not question the president and his party heading into the midterm elections next year, considering what is happening with Poll Numbers . He seems to be doubling down on his massive spending cuts, despite the effects of ida that we are seeing in so many parts of the country. Obviously the Jobs Numbers we saw were not good. Whats at stake here . Well, as you know, i am a member of that party, the democrats. When any president , when you look historically, whether it was a reagan, obama, clinton, and we can go back to republicans as well. The midterm elections, up, thats not usually helpful to the party in power. Right now, the democrats are in power appeared in the house, the senate with a tiebreaker, certainly with the president. There are a handful, and that is all republicans need to take over the majority in the house. Rightleaning district where the president is not pulling well below those national polling numbers. Of course i am concerned. However, there are a couple of bright spots in these polls. The majority of americans do not blame the president for afghanistan. And they did favor getting out. National security is fourth currently on the list, so there is an opportunity to turn this around as we move forward. Hopefully there will be marked improvement. Obviously with the covid pandemic, Vaccination Rates, and Job Numbers that you had mentioned earlier, sandra. I would not say that the Fat Lady has sung yet. Sandra i will put the Poll Numbers up on the screen. It does show Joe Biden Poll numbers sinking. September 1st, 44 approval rating. Thats a Sixpoint Drop from where it was in june. Jason, the hill, this morning, democrats tearing down a Nightmare September appeared a month jampacked with deadlines and bruising fights over top priorities. Are we seeing this Administration Sort of change the conversation right now . Because there are so many negative headlines associated with it. Well, theres No Doubt that they need to turn around because they are headed in the direction of jimmy carter. That is a presidency that is most involved when you think of Joe Biden. The problem with biden is that his policies dont work, and they are not popular with the american people. He went after the Energy Sector right away, taking down the pipeline, which pumped up gas to the 4 to 5 range. Thats not popular. The afghanistan withdrawal is one of the worst Foreign Policy Debacles weve ever had in the history of our nation. Inflation is real. It is hitting peoples pocketbooks. They dont know how to protect portland, oregon, let alone somewhere else. The border is wide open. That is not moving in the right direction. Now they have these selfimposed deadlines because of their policies. And the fundamental problem is that Joe Biden is not a good communicator, plus Joe Biden the promise of Joe Biden was he was going to unite us and bring us together. He has shown zero evidence of that so far. None. Sandra Senator Tom Cotton said the president wants afghanistan out of the news of the democrats can focus on the 3. 5 trillion in what he calls reckless spending. It is not the case . Are democrats trying to change the headlines and get afghanistan out of the news so that they can push this through . Democrat or republican, if you are in power any have a negative headlines and approval ratings dropping, you certainly want the narrative to change. Sandra but is not appropriate with american lives on the line . No. I am not saying it is inappropriate to try to have a better headline for your administration. They dont have the power to do that. We have the power to do that or not. But i disagree with jason if you look at infrastructure. The president negotiated with the house in the center. We have democrats, republicans who came together. And similarly, and if you look at the Poll Numbers, the majority of people favor and continue to favor infrastructure along with this massive spending bill. It had a compromise, and that is what you do with that negotiation. Things whittled away so that he was able to please the centrists and the others then have them come together. Im confident, despite what everyone says about Joe Manchin or kyrsten sinema, that that can be done. Sandra real quick, i will get your reaction on Joe Manchin and this budget. I never use the word persuadable with Joe Manchin, but i think he is someone that has been many times able to get to a place that is the right place to be. He gets to the right place. We knew this was going to be a tough negotiation. Im not surprised by what he wrote, and we will get this done. Sandra because we know g. O. P. Leadership and membership, acrosstheboard, opposes the 3. 5 trillion budget. Democrats are going to need Joe Manchin. Can they get him on board . It goes back to the core of they dont want to work across party lines. If they were just doing the infrastructure, the bipartisan one, that would be another thing. But it is that plus not plus 3. 5 trillion. Plus what is already in our budget. We are talking about more than 25 of our gross domestic product. One out of every 4 spent in this country is spent by the federal government. Thats disgusting. You can continue to do that. In addition to the debt ceiling.

John a Florida Doctor declaring she will stop treating unvaccinated patients, becoming the second physician to make such a decision. The doctor reportedly claiming that there appears to be a lack of selflessness, and the risk to her staff is just too great. Lets bring in dr. Nicole saphier. Good to see you. Let me pull a quote from her letter to her patients. She said this is a public health emergency. The health of the public takes priority over the rights of any given individual in the situation. What do you think Lester Mike a lot of people are throwing around the term Hippocratic Oath, which is something we all took in medical school. While people focus on doing good and doing no harm, they forget about the part where it says to respect the patients autonomy. With that comes the right to vaccination are not pure just as we dont refuse treatment for people who do high risk sexual behaviors, drink excessive alcohol, smoke cigarettes, we can help them quit those behaviors, and we treat them. Now, specifically as it comes to covid19, this is a highly contagious virus. I do believe it is within her right to say to her patients who are choosing not to be vaccinated i am still your doctor, but while we have high levels of transmission, if you are not vaccinated, you will be seen by telemedicine. Or you can do what you see in pediatricians offices. They come at different times of the day than the healthy kids coming for their routine checkups. This is a way that physicians and other Health Care providers are going to have to be a little flexible to make sure that we dont continue to add to the spread of this virus by trying to separate those who are sick and those who are not. I do not believe that she should refuse treatment to anyone because of a personal decision. In that regard, that does violate the Hippocratic Oath. John here is what she says. The Hippocratic Oath is very science based. I am following the science. I am applying this to the benefit of the sick. What do you say about that . As a collective, i understand what she is saying. While it is her role to educate her patients as to why vaccination is the best way forward to protect themselves, family, and friends, if a patient is still refusing the vaccine for whatever reason, maybe a medical condition, maybe they have already recovered and have natural immunity, part of that is respecting their decision and their autonomy. So by refusing to be their doctor anymore, that in itself is going against the Hippocratic Oath. John this comes at a time when the Infection Curve in florida seems to be taking a turn down. There you see on the far righthand side of the screen the highlighted area. That is the delta variance surge. It really peaked as you can see on August The 15th and has been going down since then. We still dont have all of the numbers from the Labor Day weekend, but the Trend Line is way down there in florida. Is this an indication, do you believe, that we are seeing in florida or maybe more broadly, what we saw in other countries . A spike in the delta variant, and then it comes down almost as quickly appeared i do believe that is happening not just in florida but another place is across the country. Many places are seeing a decline found that delta waves. Florida Vaccination Rates to increase. The rise of natural immunity. Though we are going to start seeing this Ad Ban Flow as virus becomes endemic. People go back to school. It will peak and go back down. This is going to be coming for maybe years to come where it is possible that covid19 may be the next flu or we are just going to be living with us, but until we get to that level love immunity, we need to continue to do things as safely as possible, encourage vaccination in those who have knock on the vaccine. For the meanwhile, still minimizing the amount of large indoor gatherings. John your use of the word endemic was a little depressing, but the better able we will be to live with them on a chronic business. Thanks for dropping by today. Thanks for having me.

Sandra its The End of the line for more than 10 Million americans receiving those extended Unemployment Benefits to the pandemic. Those benefits ending this week as some argue it will incentivize potential workers to get back out there in the workforce. There are currently over a 10 Million open jobs in the united states right now. And a lot of businesses are having a tough time feeling them here the president has opted not to extend the aid for now. His Labor Secretaries are suggesting states with high jobless rates it should continue those benefits. Charlie gasparino joins us now. Charlie, i know you have had some time to dig into this. But it sounds obvious. It sounds like, you know, as things got better with the pandemic, and now were into september, that if you end those extended federal Unemployment Benefits, then naturally people who are dependent on those will then have to go back out into the workforce and take up one of these 10 Million open jobs. Well, thats the logic. When i talk to small business owners, and i do a lot of that, particularly for fox business, we have been trying to get to the bottom, from the standpoint of any economist bought a small businessman or woman, what is your biggest problem here . They all say they are competing against the government checks, and they cant get workers. Inflation, higher prices, all the bad stuff goes downstream. I would just caution this. Yes, when you look at the states that ended these benefits early sandra we have a list. Texas is there. 24 of the 26th 24 states ended at all. Sandra these are the states, by the way, that kept the extended Unemployment Benefits. Several of those red states, even one Blue State decided to end them. But go ahead. Unemployment excuse me, employment went up, but it went up marginally. You have to ask yourself why wasnt there a rush to those jobs . Thats why i am a little dubious then ending the benefits and i was going to create people trying to get jobs. Because you know, unemployment, the extended Unemployment Insurance is not the only Welfare Benefits that the progressives have pushed through. Extended Child Tax credits. There is a lot of stuff that essentially rewards staying at home and not going to work. I am a little dubious that this is going to lead to has 180 sandra i think thats fair because the people who have looked into this, and Robert Wolff was on our show last week. They like to point to the Wall Street Journal analysis that their conclusion, at least at least, among their economists, the states that kathy Unemployment Benefits solid limited impact on Job Growth. So the obvious, they are saying, did not happen. It is murky. Go ahead. Remember, when Robert Wolf makes the point, he is a huge supporter of President Bidens policies. Sandra no, no. We got that. I know what he is doing, but he is leaving out the other part. Sandra i agree. Get into it. It is all the other welfare that incentivizes people to stay home. The extended Child Tax credit, and a lot, a lot more. When Robert Wolf says he is basically touting the Company Sandra hes not here to defend himself, so lets leave Robert Wolf out of this. He brought him up here sandra because i was making the point that a lot are defending Biden Policies. To me, it looks pretty fair. They did not see an immediate correlation, charlie. Thank you for that. But what they did conclude is that so far, they have seen about the same Job Growth as the states that continued to offer those Pandemic Hold on a second. Goldman sachs did their own analysis. They said that they found, and theyve got a lot of money on the line when it comes to analyzing this, Goldman Sachs found clear evidence that Benefit Expiration increased the rate at which unemployed workers became employed. Goldman estimated that if all states had ended benefits, Julys Payroll Growth would have been 400,000 job stronger. Millions of dollars to tell us that little secret. I mean, i will say this, sandra. I read the various publications, which pointed out all the stuff keeping people from going back, taking jobs. One of them was the Child Tax credit. I dont need Goldman Sachs to tell me. I just know this. Welfare is keeping people from taking these jobs. You may agree with this or disagree with this. Sandra economist extraordinaire, charlie gasparino, joining us on america reports. They are saying that the conclusions are murky because many of those economists say we may not know for years the actual implications of removing the federal assistance with those extended benefits. Its not something we can determine a week or even a month later. It can take months and years. Thats the point. I will be back a year from now to report that. Sandra oh, charlie. Thanks so much. John great episode of the Debate Club there appeared to be to the point is while the Wall Street Journal did not find a direct correlation to people jumping back into the workforce, a lot of the same Ecommerce Player cited in the article are saying we will not know this potentially for years.

Sandra function is only now as we begin a brandnew hour. Turns out that crazy twist in the south Carolina Murder mystery was not true. The powerful lawyer whose Wife And Son were murdered did not resign from his Law Firm after he himself was shot on saturday. That is because he was forced out on friday. His coworkers say they discovered a secret he was keeping and that they called the State Police immediately. Good afternoon, everyone. Im Sandra Smith in New York. John i am in John Roberts in washington. That case taking so many turns. We want to lay out a timeline for you here so you can follow along. The Murdaugh Family has been a legal powerhouse for more than a century, but Paul Murdock was despised in some parts after a drunk Boat And Crash in 2019 that killed a teenage girl. Just as paul was about to go to Court And Face charges, his father discovered his son shot dead alongside the fathers wife. Each was shot with a different gun. It was while investigating those murders that they say they found information that they have not yet revealed. It caused them to open up a cold case. Sandra so many twists and turns. And then another crash and another dead teenager. Police at the time real dead ahead and run. With so many deaths following this family, there was another shooting this weekend. The father, alex, called police to say that he had been shot in the head, which brings us to you right now. And we are just coming in. Alex did not tell police the whole story. John Nancy Grace, moments away, on all of the twists and turns in this fascinating case. Lets go to Steve Harrigan. What are we learning . John, quite a weekend for the 53yearold attorney, Alex Murdaugh. This Law Firm was built by his grandfather. They have been prominent here in rural South Carolina for the past 100 years. Now on friday, he was forced out. The firm says he was stealing money. In a statement just given to fox, they have no place for such behavior. One day after on the road in his mercedes suv, he sees a Pickup Truck Turn around. Someone, he said, shot him in the head. He was able to call 911, airlifted to a hospital with a superficial head wound. The next day, checked out of the hospital and into rehab for substance abuse. He said im immensely sorry for everyone ive heard. Really raises a lot of questions. What happened to that money . More than 1 Million. But also who did he hurt . People have felt that the Murdaugh Family was being targeted. Perhaps revenge killings for either of those 19yearolds, presumably by a member of the Murdaugh Family. But now with the recent behavior, really renewed scrutiny at his own alibi. Where was he when his Wife And Son were killed . Did he really get shot by Someone Else on saturday . John, back to you. John Steve Harrigan of course following the latest in the case. Sandra lets bring in Nancy Grace. Welcome. Can you dig into this for us . Sound many twists and turns and so much changing by the hour. Absolutely. I have just left the savanna and North Carolina area. As you know, Alex Murdaugh was airlifted all the way to Memorial Hospital In Savannah for what . Abandoned . It was a superficial wound. Let me tell you something. If the same person that killed maggie and her son, paul, sean Alex Murdaugh, he would be dead right now. That is my take. You dont go by and a Pickup Truck, turn all the way back around to finish it off, and he gets grazed. I want to point out that it is a very narrow twolane. But about a mile or so down, the 2400 block, North Carolina Law enforcement division, i would be at their church right now, Finding Out if they have Surveillance Video of any type, if there are cameras anywhere around. I would be looking for that. Maybe even a Cell Phone data down. What Cell Phones pinged off of The Tower where he was shot . We will find out if it was not selfinflicted. We might have a clue as to who shot maggie and paul. John against that they had on this morning suggested exactly that, that they could kind of put a fence around the area and see who was there at that time. If it was a selfinflicted gunshot wound, thats pretty easy to figure out. Well, yes, it is. If this shooter was shooting from a Pickup Truck, reportedly changing a tire, i saw the Crime Scene photos. I didnt see any tools that you change a tire. But you would expect the Trajectory Path of the bullet to be up to down, back to front, depending on where murdaugh was at the time of the shooting. Another thing, i would run for it. Did you see that dense, wooded area where he had a Flat Tire . If someone was shooting at me, i would run for it. This past weekend, i was all over the area, and a local pointed out to me he was not too freaked out about who shot him. And you know what . That clerk at jimmy johns was right. I have not heard anything about him being concerned about the safety of his family. Sandra a Family Friend and attorney for murdaugh said that a Pickup Truck passed him while he was changing his tire. That is The Story. Here is Alex Murdaugh statement. The murders of my Wife And Son have caused an incredibly difficult time in my life. I have made a lot of decisions i truly regret. I am redesigning and entering rehab after a long battle that has been exacerbated by these murders. I ask for prayers as i rehabilitate myself and my relationships. When do you think we will know more and get the True Story as to what happened here . Well, for one, Law Enforcement is keeping it close to the vest. I think they know a lot more than we are giving them credit for, but i can tell you this. The Trajectory Path of that bullet is going to tell whether that was selfinflicted or not. And another thing, the first thing that came out of his mouth was this was not selfinflicted. Well, up until then, nobody said that it was. Another thing about the rural route, that is not the best way to charleston. I can tell you that. What is he doing out on this route to get to charleston all gone . And he happens to have a Flat Tire right there. And this person happens to go by and shoot him. Very contrived. He did not resign. He is saving face. He was booted. Over 1 Million is missing, and i want to point out that members of his Law Firm showed up at the shooting. Why were they there . John its if it was selfinflicted, i imagine that there would be Gunpowder Residue on the skin. I wish. You mentioned that they are playing this really close to th. Typically, not all the time, but typically, that suggest theyve got information they want to keep to themselves because it points to a specific Person Of Interest. Alex murdaugh was a Person Of Interest for a while and the deaths of his son and wife. Do we expect that we will see him become a Person Of Interest again . This certainly adds fuel to the flames. When i said I Wish you know, it is like baby powder. All you have to do is wipe your hands. Its gone. It will be relatively easy to get rid of, but i find it interesting. He took a shot from an unknown assailant. Why was he not running through the web than hiding . Another thing that i would like to find out now that you bring up the original Crime Scene of paul and maggie, i wonder if there is any manipulation of the Crime Scene. Was he really at the hospital with his dying father at the time that they were shot . Was the Crime Scene somehow manipulated . I want to know more about his rock solid alibi. Sandra we remember going back to the beginning of The Story of the families powerful legal connections were all put in the spotlight after paul, the young son, was indicted in that Boat Crash in 2019. Left one of the young passengers, a 19yearold woman, dead. They were said to be grossly intoxicated. What a story. I know you are working on a Fox Nation special. Nancy grace, thanks for joining us. John almost like an episode of outer banks. Wow. This thing has got so many twists and turns. Wow. What do you think . Sandra i dont. The story has left everybody guessing, wanting more information. It sounds like the police have more, to your point. Some shocking, shocking turns. John and we will keep watching if you are looking forward to Nancy Grace is special. President biden in New Jersey this afternoon to see the damage from ida. Leaving a trail of discretion filmic distraction. Counting on the three months of rain in just five hours.

John the organizer of the rescue of an american mother and her three kids from afghanistan now accusing the State Department, who tried to take credit. Cory mills is a republican congressional district for florida. He says he worked for weeks preparing for the mission, and the administration is not coming clean about its involvement. This allows lawmakers on both sides of the aisle are slamming the biden administration for delays in the evacuation efforts. Lets bring in Dan Hoffman, Fox News contributor. Lets get you, first of all, to take on the issue of miriam and her three kids who Got Out of afghanistan with the help of cory mills. And the veterans who risked a lot to get them out. In the meantime, the State Department stepped in at the last moment and claim to the win. What do you think . I think The Story is a real microcosm for the biden administrations very chaotic and haphazard withdrawal, which has put americans at risk. Even the ones who Got Out, we should be thankful we got them out. They had to get to an airport which was targeted by isisk, not to mention others. Im sure Al Qaeda was trying to talk at that airport as well. This case, they try to get to the airport in kabul. They try to get out on aircraft sent reportedly could not get out through mazaresharif. Last time i checked, there were no u. S. Officials helping them. They had to rely on this foundation that cory mills runs. God bless them for getting these folks out. It is our sacred duty to take Care Of americans in harms way, and we failed. John you mentioned that she tried to get out in mazaresharif. They were aircraft being held on the ground in mazaresharif over the weekend. The taliban would not give them permission to leave. Here is what Secretary Of State Antony Blinken said about this. It is my understanding that the taliban has not denied exit to anyone holding a valid document, but they have said that those without valid documents at this point cannot leave. Because all of these people are grouped together, that has meant that flights have not been allowed to go. John blinken was saying there, dan, that there were some people on board that do not have the proper documentation, so the whole thing was being held up. I am wondering, what happened to the leverage that the State Department claimed they were going to have after all u. S. Troops left . There is no leverage. Where was the officer who would have been there, and at the airport, find the airplane there to make sure that american citizens were taken Care Of. We dont have anybody in the country. We dont even know exactly what the facts are because we dont have our people there to track this. Nor do we have the capabilities to influence the situation. And if we think the taliban are, you know, as an entity, it is a terrorist group. How are we supposed to negotiate with them . They announced the new interior minister. Thats the spoils of war. The network is notorious for conducting Suicide Attacks on innocent civilians in the former government of afghanistan and allowing Al Qaeda homestead on their territory. He is a designated terrorist. I dont know how we are going to square dealing with this new taliban government, but we dont have leverage to influence the situation on the ground. It is not going to cut it. John 5 Million bounty on his head. Senator richard blumenthal, a democrat, outraged over how President Biden is handling this. Listen to what he said. Or rather we have to read it. Ive been deeply frustrated, even furious, at the delay and in action. This is a debacle from a political perspective as well. We are looking at this a little bit from events that have transpired, but lets be clear that our concern is over the roughly 100 or so americans, and how many, we dont even no, siv holders who should be able to travel here or to some other third Country Location and be safe. We are not getting it right. That is why we are going to see these hearings with Secretary Blinken. I will be looking forward to seeing what the best policy is going forward. John we will be covering those in the halls of congress. Always good to talk to you. Thanks for your analysis. Sandra Fox News alert. Now life to the scene in New Jersey where President Biden is Surveying Damage from hurricane ida. As we know, 57 data. More still missing in the eastern united states. New jersey and New York declared Disaster Declarations by the president as well as louisiana, obviously. The president getting a firsthand look at how it was for the families they are in New Jersey. This is a Scene Alltoofamiliar to so many areas around new York City. It is furniture piled Sky High outside of these houses. Sanitation trucks going up and down, trying to help people. There are cran like tracks lifting the heavy objects, putting them into the trash. It is unbelievable. You will see when the Camera Backs out here that this is such a hardhead neighborhood. Absolutely all of their front yards are filled with items because they suffered so much damage. Mandeville, New Jersey, one of the hardest hit areas. John it certainly doesnt tell the whole story. You see one pile of Household Belongings. The president will be going to queens, one of the new York City boroughs, later on this afternoon where you actually deliver some remarks. We may, if we are allowed close enough, be able to hear some of what the president is saying with the residents. Maybe he will take a couple of questions. Some formal remarks coming a little bit later on today. Sandra the camera actually is now zoomed in. We were watching this remote shot, john. The president was being heckled by someone on the ground. They were saying resign, you tyrant. The press was backed a little bit away. We saw the camera moves back, and therefore, the zoom happening right now. He did speak. He took a couple of questions before boarding marine one. He said and was asked what he is hoping to see today in New Jersey and New York. He said i am hoping to see things that we can fix permanently with the bill on infrastructure. He was impressed on the chances in congress. He joked the sun will come out tomorrow. John, cant pick up what he is saying right now, but this is obviously an important moment for a president to be on the ground, Surveying Damage, bringing some sort of comfort to those who have lost so much. Hopefully in the case of this family with whom he is speaking, just lost items. So many people have lost Loved Ones as well. John Saw A Little Bit of criticism of his remarks earlier today, that he was zeroing in on climate change, talking about that in his agenda as opposed to the empathy that a president typically shows in situations like this. Maybe he is trying to get both things and because clearly he is spending some time with these folks there in manville. Often during these visits, you have to be the consoler in chief. Sandra i set up before. I will say it again. Some of these homes suffering so much damage, losing everything that they have. The camera is swinging around here in this neighborhood that the president is touring. A lot of them dont even have flood insurance. Homeowners insurance, you are lucky if they will cover much. This is just a devastating time for so many of these communities, john. John i have been in the situations many, many times. Often you do get a chance to throw a couple of questions to the president. Meantime, a trial getting underway in Guantanamo Bay. Fox news has got a seat in the courtroom. Wait until you hear some of the details that our Fox Team has been spotting, like why all of the accused planners of the Terror Attacks were all smiles today.

This after he and another four other highprofile detainees made their first Court Appearance in more than a year due to covid. Lucas tomlinson is in Guantanamo Bay where he joins us now live. What did that day bring . Good afternoon, john. Days ahead of the 20th Anniversary of the 9 11 attacks, i asked one of their attorneys why his client appeared to be in such a good mood. Smiling in Court Today . I am sure he was smiling in court because he was happy to see us. The man has been on lockdown as long as everyone else has been, and to see his legal team that he hasnt seen in a long time. It is cause for pleasure. Khalid sheikh mohammed, better known by his initials, ksm, his idea to hijack the airliners. Born in kuwait, ksm went to a small college in North Carolina before graduating to a life of Terrorism Beginning in afghanistan. Female attorneys for the five prisoners wearing a hijab, conservative islamic attire. Defending the detainees at taxpayer expense. They were braced for a prayer time. Two of them the war u. S. Military Style Desert fatigues. All five detainees smiling and waving to each other, all appearing very jovial. Their first time in court and over 500 days. It cost 13 Million a year to keep the prisoners here at gitmo. In 20 years, no sign that any of the cases are going to trial. Even if it does, another two decades of likely appeals. I dont expect to much of them this week. Those hearings have been a Comedy Of Errors for years now. We have got a schedule that is not conducive to justice. Weve got a Defense Team that has no interest in justice. For the five exgitmo detainees, to today occupy top positions with the taliban. John Lucas Tomlinson in Guantanamo Bay for us. Sandra doubling down on his massive spending push. The economy will remember when we got that jobs report friday. 235,000 added jobs during the month, far below expectations. This has more than 10 Million jobs remain open in this country. That is a record, including some 4 Million in the last year. Lets bring in former Labor Secretary eugene scalia. Sir, thanks for being here. I saw your piece in the Wall Street Journal. I said we have got to have you want and explain this to us. You were writing Biden Policies will hurt americas laborers and the long run. May be paying people not to work and punishing employers isnt so great for the Job Market. Explain. Yeah, its not a good recipe. Pleasure to join you today. The 300 federal unemployment supplemented end yesterday. That was a program when we first entered the pandemic. It made sense. We had many states preventing people from work. We had massive unemployment. I supported even continued intervention after the initial care is benefit expired last summer, but by that time President Biden took office, it was clear we had a strong econo. We had actually a low number of layoffs. The 300 benefits was no longer needed. It was time for it to end. Under President Obama during the great recession when he came into office, the federal unemployment was 25 a week, but we had 300 a week. It was time to end. There are a number of factors that are keeping people out of work. Obviously that coronavirus is the most significant. But there has been some number of people that have been making more not working than they were getting working. As many as 40 . And so i think ending that benefit will be One Step Forward towards putting people back to work. But at the same time, my Law Clients are worried about the regulatory program that the biden administration is putting in place, which is quite aggressive. As well as tax hikes. Under the last administration, under president trump, we saw a very large and unexpected Job Growth, which many of us believed was a result of reducing regulation, lowering taxes. Workers. T benefits for american sandra that Business Friendly Environment we are always talking about, that we want to see in this country, no matter what party is in the White House. Your piece, though, you go on to say the evidence is mounting of potentially longterm Job Loss and to states where taxes are highest. Pandemic restrictions have been most severe. There is a lesson for mr. Biden in the Home State of Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer. California and New York, obviously. Although it is unlikely the lesson will be learned. Thats a fair enough point. Because in your piece, you look back at history and the impact these extended benefits have had on the Job Market. Is anybody watching . Is anybody paying attention so that we do not repeat these mistakes . You had hoped, but i cannot give you that assurance. One President Biden came in, it was less than a year that we have this extraordinary Job Market with 50 Year Record low unemployment with amazing Job Growth and lower Wage Workers were the primary beneficiaries. We saw Wage Growth across the board but especially for lower Wage Workers. I think it President Biden had thought pragmatically, he would have said boy, that was good. How do we get back there . Thats going to mean lower regulation, lower tax. But he has charged off in the opposite direction. It does concern the people that create jobs for us. And as i mentioned, New York, california, very high unemployment rates. 7. 6 . Close to two points higher than the national average. Why . I believe it is not just lockdowns. It is longerterm economic policies that have stifled growth, but they are now being urged on the present by Chuck Schumer of New York and Nancy Pelosi of california. Sandra we have had a massive shift in workplace culture. The philosophy and the thinking of men and women in this country, that is why some are questioning the Wall Street Journal analysis. The states that cut Unemployment Benefits are limited impact. That is interesting. That is not as obvious as we might think, but the comments that came to that conclusion said it is going to take some time, perhaps years to really know the effects of these longterm Unemployment Benefits that have been going out. A lot to take in there. Thank you for taking us to read. My pleasure. Thank you.

Lets listen here. We had kind of event tracking a little bit to see how high the water was rising, but weve lived here for four years, and weve never experienced a flood. We didnt know what to expect. But we only just left early. We didnt know. But i think Everyone Kind of sound out around 1 00 a. M. When the sirens went off. Is this your husband . This is my husband. Well, saying god you are saf. Okay, thanks. We are very grateful that you came. Speed to an important moment for president to bring comfort to people during storms like those who have lost so much. Obviously, that was a family, i believe in the early part of her story. She was talking about how the belongings of her Childs Nursery she had just had a baby. Some had gone that way. Some had ended up all the way down that way. Too many stories like that. The president will continue to survey the damage they are on the ground before he heads to New York. John we talked it to a family whose house got flattened by the tornado. Some of her belongings were found by people in philadelphia, which is a long way away from where her house is. Terrible. Antony blinken, talks continuing. After critics say the biden administration abandoned sandra all Wall Street Journal Editorial Today blasting what they call foreign policy blunders, arguing that it is not just a mess in afghanistan. Not even the administrations only mess in the middle east. The oped is headlined, reading we once again urge, and ignoring Antony Blinken one more time. Lets bring him in now. Is this on multifront foreign Policy Failure that we are seeing by the biden administration . I think it is multifront consequences on the failure in afghanistan. The editorial was a lot around the houthis and the saudis and the war. Telling them knock it off. You need a diplomatic settlement, and they are saying the taliban got their military solution, and we want ours. It reminds me of the old Woody Allen Movie where hes at a Cocktail Party in manhattan, and they are talking about the Nazis Marching on New Jersey. He says we need to go down there and meet them with Baseball Bats and so forth. One of the other guest says no, i think whats called for is a strongly worded oped in the New York times. It just looks ridiculous. These people, they are not intimidated by over the Horizon Capacities and systems that they must do something. John very often, youse got to have some sort of strength. There are criticisms. The Secretary Of State is not particularly inspiring fear in the hearts of a lot of our adversaries. Here is what the Wall Street Journal said. The Liberal International seem to believe that asserting a demand for a diplomatic solution will make it so, but as with the taliban and afghanistan, the houthis and their iranian backers believe they can win their work without negotiating as they see the u. S. Retreat and abandon their allies. All of Antony Blinkens protests will not stop a mess all mid flight. They are rebels. They do not want to sit down for negotiation because they know that they will get shot out of any solution as to what government in yemen will look like. Their only solution is to fight until The End. Going back, do you think they are really scared of our over the Horizon Capacity . They are not. They can see what everyone else is seeing in afghanistan. In fairness to you Secretary Blinken, he has stuck with the hand that Joe Biden dealt him. What leverage do we have . What threats could the u. S. Make that are credible . We are reducing our leverage and so forth. We have hostages in afghanistan. You know, what it reminds me of, in the 70s, we kind of undermined the shah of iran. Now we seem to be doing it to the saudis. I do not think that they are private, but the idea that you can persuade people to accept a diplomatic solution when they think they have a Military One and grasp. Its just silly. Sandra because Blinken Statement say we once again urge the houthis to agree to a Cease Fire immediately. It reminds me of a few good men. Demi moore. I strenuously object. I mean, where did he think he was going to get with that statement . Yeah, i dont know. I have some sympathy for him in the sense that he has to go out there and sell Joe Bidens policies and deal with the consequences. I think it points to a bigger problem. What is the u. S. Credibility now in diplomacy . What can we threaten people with if bad actors down to what we say . A strongly worded statement. People are taking a measure and fighting Joe Biden and Antony Blinken wanting. John biden wants to focus on happy things, but there doesnt seem to be a lot of those around. Sandra thanks, bill.
