Welcome to a Brandnew Hour of Americas Newsroom and Bill Hemmer is off to dave and julian, think you. Gillian im Gillian Turner and blaming inadequate response to disaster of leadership at the white house. This is across the southeast and republicans raising the questions about the Bidenharris Administration to handle largescale emergencies like this one. As Hurricane Milton taking aim at florida as we just heard from governor Ron Desantis just two weeks after helene. Cofounder Tim Kennedy on the ground in North Carolina. He is coordinating private Rescue And Relief operations there. Here is what he says about the governments response. It was absolutely broken. Fema and the land in mn on the ground doing the best they can but fema has every Priority Wrong and they didnt know what to do or where to do it or to access these mountains and they were turning people away from munson telling helicopters to land. The president coming in with a nofly zone when the president arrives while doing airborne evacuations. None of it made sense. Speed to the program on Capitol Hill that no members around, hey, chad. This is the politics of disaster relief. Lawmakers on the right torching the administration and they believe that feds were not ready for the storm. Washingtons response to the hurricane is a race for president a Swing State. It is like the Dmv At Industrial Scale and because of it, a lot of folks in North Carolina are suffering unnecessarily. I hope to guide you dont have unnecessary loss of life but i fear we do. It is incompetent at the highest level. Fema under the department of Homeland Security for some republicans believe vhs is more focused on resettling those in the country illegally instead of the hurricane. And includes House Speaker Mike Johnson. When you talk to the people who are directly affected the, they will tell you this has been an abject failure. Fema has lost sight of Core Mission in so many cases and the administration has not shown they are prepared for this eventuality and this terrible disaster. G. O. P. South Carolina Representative Nancy Mace wants to end Shelter And Service program for illegal immigration. She wrote a bill to do just that, but the administration is pushing back. Wade argues one account for illegal immigration and another for disaster relief. Just plain false. This kind of rhetoric is not helpful to people. It is really a shame we are putting politics ahead of helping people. We have had the local officials helping to push back on this dangerous, truly dangerous narratives that is creating this fear of trying to reach out and help us. Now, it despite the criticism, Mike Johnson is refusing to summon lawmakers back to washington to tackle the double disasters. Johnson says congress will address the damage next month. To Disaster Funds are dwindling, dana. Speed to think of the update.

Mark meredith from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue with all the details and what we can expect. Jill and good morning to you, the Vice President campaign to put Kamala Harris Front and center but through ads and not sit down interviews and it appears recent criticism that is starting to change. Just this Week Harris will be all over the airwaves with an interview on the View Stephen Colbert on The Late Show and former interview on 60 minutes and former President Trump chose not to participate in the traditional interview even though it is a stop for traditionally for candidates and plugging the Media Blitz and hearing from Obama Aide David axelrod posted this is an important and strategically sound ship and more local Media Appearances and temples and key Battleground States will be valuable too. Harris campaign for a long time insisting its taking a variety of steps to get the message out including teaming up with the digital influencers. She is also starting to go one podcast went over the weekend call her daddy. Im feeling great and i am feeling nervous and to and to adages only two ways to ride without an opponent or scared to. So you go. But could this backfire . The new York Post riding the fans are blasting the interview calling it feeling like propaganda. The Vice President will be on the trail and in addition to tv appearances, gillian stops out west as well as nevada and well out there atb Town Hall with hispanic News Channel Indication that they are trying to get the message out to spanishspeaking voters, gillian. Gillian mark meredith, thank you. Dana Kayleigh Mcenany of the cohost of outnumbered. Super podcast and i know the kids listen to it that Kamala Harris, Call Number to go. Listen it. Im curious like you dont do too many formal interviews but what made you to do call your dad beat today . I think you and your listeners have really got this thing right, which is one of the best ways to communicate with people is to be real and to talk about the things that people really care about. Dana they went on and talked mostly as far as i can tell about womens rights and issues important to the audience. This interview is getting a lot of pushback because she doesnt do a lot of other things. How do you see it . She doesnt do a lot of other things and a clamoring for her to get out here. We see the call your Daddy Podcast but going on even Colbert And Connie Howard Stern doing these lighter interviews. I would really question this strategy this week in particular and fine if you want to do it next week with category 4 Hurricane Coming and you were criticized thursday and we didnt see Fema Headquarters until after the hurricane. I would be doing a double Fema Headquarter briefing and then go to Swing State and show yourself engaged, go on Weather Channel and you are being criticized for hurricane response. This seems a little tonedeaf to the people in the southeast. I will say, kaylee and tell me if im wrong on this, might take away at least from what the campaign is broadcasting this week they are going all in on voters. They believe the democrats understand that they are voters, the younger voters care deeply about these enter im not sure how to describe it but interpersonal dynamics and harris. This is a way for her to highlight that without delving into too many policy issues. They are speaking to this this week and maybe hopefully they will move on to something substantive next week. We see President Trump doing a ton of podcast geared towards young men and a great Strategy And One that needs to be manifested for harris in particular. When at the cheap criticism for harris, we dont know enough about her. Using a third of your day outside of your duties with Politico And Half of your days in washington, we do not know you want the Campaign Trail and David Axel said it is time. What are you doing . You say we dont know much about her and i dont think people need to be know need to know about your child, mom, dad, sister. Tim walz had not done a Sunday Show since the nominee. But he was on for Shannon Bream and i thought shane was amazing and i love watching her. Sheep passed him on Knucklehead Comet and watch here. They heard me speaking about Gun Violence in this thinking that i dont think people care if i used Iui Or Ivf but what they understand it as Donald Trump would resist those things. Am very proud of my record in 24 years in Service Way but never disparage anyone but i know that is not what Donald Trump does. Personal attacks and i will own up when msp and i will own up when i make a mistake. Dana a better answer than the debate but 60 Million people or 70 Million people watch the debate. Yes, a huge Pointer And Sheena put up a misstatement, military rank, carrying a weapon and work, dui arrests and a trip to bash it to listen and she was right to press him on fat and fantastic interview but what im struck by his apparently the campaign was not aware of some of these misstatements, which is striking to me. Eric holder was the one doing the betting. Truncated bedding because it all happened so fast. It might come back to bite them. It might. His favorability is the highest of any four candidates. I was looking for simple polling. I think we will get it later in the week and i read something about that this morning. Dana i love to see you on a monday morning. Hurricane milton a category four storm and prompting major evacuations in florida. The latest forecast plus this. There were no rights or no homes but just so much damage.

We have old Cloud Tops and perfects no net i. It has strengthened 40 mileperhour Tropical Storm on saturday to category five for in a matter of the couple of days. We expect landfall wednesday, 30 State And Computer models has been slowing down. Weakening a little bit but i want to add we will see the Storm Surge of the strong category 4, even though it makes landfall perhaps as a category 3. So dont look at this as a weakening storm. It is still going to do catastrophic damage. I like to liken this to sandy in the northeast where it was Borderline Category Hurr Hurricane 1 and a Storm Surge that caused the problems. This is the same at this hurricane. Hurricane north at cedar towards maple florida. If you live in this area, it is vulnerable to Storm Surge and talking 1210foot that has never happened in their lifetime. That is why people are urged to make decisions now. Time is running out. This will be a substantial Storm System. It could be a onceinalifetime Storm System and certainly looking at the potential of lifethreatening Storm Surge, heavy rainfall 35, 58, but this is a Storm Surge Story And Hurricaneforce winds an issue and widespread power outages. The storm will slice across florida we could see the potential of some Storm Surge on the East Coast of florida. We could see tropical tornadoes as well. But this is a West Coast storm. But as a Storm Surge storied. And i dont want you to look at it and say, it will be Category Category 3 and it will be Storm Surge of 4 or five. So if you live in this area, you need to make your decisions right now, what are you going to do . I would say try to evacuate. Speed to see if my friend, lauren frantz, who moved to florida last week is paying attention to you. I will send her a text. Ive had emails from people and protect yourself and your property.

And the Counseling Student at western carolina university. I just started my Counseling Practicum so i am still new. Im not a licensed therapist yet, but im involved with black Mountain Counseling Center in town here. We are trying to mobilize our therapists to help just help people cope with what is going on around him. But its really hard though because all of therapists are also in survival mode, trying to pick up the pieces of their own life, but they are also trying to hold that capacity to help others. Currently, i am helping out with the Field Hospital that is stationed at first baptist like mountain. We have nurses there doing physical health.
