I want to live. As far as how his family is doing, he gave this update in a Facebook Post last Week Quote that regret, that plea, did not follow in his footsteps, thats a common narrative emerging in the pockets of the country dealing with the worst outbreaks right now. The ten states with the highest new Case Counts in the country are also now the states with the highest increase in first shots administered. That has been the trend for the past three weeks now. Overall, the average pace of vaccinations across the country is steadily rising. Look at the Bottom Right of your screen. People are scared. Without full protection from the vaccine, they have good reason to be. According to data kept by John Help skins university, we just crossed the threshold of 200 Million coronavirus cases across the globe. With the Delta Variant dominating, that number just keeps rising. The cdc now reports that the Delta Variant accounts for more than 93 of covid cases in the u. S. That number is as high as 90 in certain regions of the country, like the midwest. In all the bad news, at least some good news. They imposed sweeping Maxine Mandates and it is working that state has to scenic significant bump in the number of daily vaccinations. The number keeps rising after months of decline. That is, and what can happen when a state takes this seriously. Also starting to witness what happens when the state does the exact opposite. Florida is in the middle of a Recordbreaking Rake of the Coronavirus Bread and that Covid Hospitalizations are 13 higher than the previous peak in july of last year. Year. 84 of all the states Inpatient Beds are full. More than 86 of all icu beds are occupied. The state actually broke the Hospitalisation Record for the Third Day in a row. Florida now accounts for 60 of the countrys new cases. It only makes up six and a Half Percent of the countrys population. This is a state in trouble. When it comes to how to solve this problem, governor Ron Desantis its having trouble balancing this equation. During a Press Conference yesterday, desantis downplayed the growing crisis in his state, claiming that Hospitalization Numbers are lower than last summer, and saying the media is promoting quote, hysteria around covid. Fast forward to today, the governor is deflecting his poor performance uncovered by pointing to President Bidens handling of migrants at the border. In Ron Desantis is florida, one plus two equals 751. Joe biden is taking to himself to try to single out florida, over covid. This is a Guy Who Ran for president saying he was going to quote, Shut Down the virus. What has he done . He has imported more virus from Around The World by having a wide open southern border. Why dont you do your job . One of you get this border secure . Until you do that, i dont want to hear a blip about covid from you. Rather than doing anything about the rising hospitalizations in his state, Governor Desantis is using this moment to fundraise, literally this is a Fundraising Email sent to supporters saying quote friend, Joe Biden wants me to get it away because i refused to yield power to the federal Government And Strip floridians of their liberties. Until Joe Biden gets the board and secure and the crisis under control, i do not want to hear a blip about covid from him or his administration. Chip in now to help me continue my fight. Help me continue my fight, not the fight against covid, the fight against Joe Biden. Meanwhile, his hospitals are creeping dangerously close to capacity since no amount of fundraising could help the covid spread from spreading. Doctor joining us now is doctor marcos mestre hes the Chief Medical Officer in miami. Its the only Freestanding Pediatric Hospital in south florida. Doctor mestre thank you for being here tonight. One of the reasons we have got you here is because your hospital is experiencing how serious this is. I just want to read to my viewers. And nicholas Childrens Hospital, there was 17 children with covid in the icu there were six and one who needed a ventilator. That is what you told the Associated Press. Half the patients were under the age of 12, mestre said. All of them eligible for the vaccine. None of them were vaccinated. Though you are seeing this at your hospital and in your state. Exactly right, ali. When we are seeing now is we are actually up to 20 patients. 16 patients on the floor, six in the icu, ten on the regular floor. Then we have another four waiting in our Emergency Department admitted to the hospital. We are definitely seeing an increase in cases, not just admitted to the hospital but also in our Emergency Rooms and Urgency Care centers across the city. Again, you are a Childrens Hospital, but we seem to be seeing at least anecdotally, and statistically, that there are more young people being hit by this right now. What is your sense of how that is the case . There is a higher percentage of children infected given that the older population is vaccinated and obviously, for those 12 under, they cannot be vaccinated. So there is a greater percentage of children that are affected as opposed to the beginning of the pandemic. In regards to the wrong numbers, we are not quite at the numbers we saw on july of 2020, but we are getting close. With this peak possibly lasting 2 to 3 weeks we could surpass it. What do you want to be done . What do you want authorities to do and what do you need people to do . What we recommend for everybody is obviously the vaccinations. That is our way out of this pandemic. For those children 12 and over, as a father of three, i completely understand why parents are a little cautious about it. The other thing i like to tell parents, this is very safe. Even though there were some cases initially of my Aux Cord ideas reported, this was mild and runofthemill anti inflammatory. The effects we see from a covid infection, those risks are much greater than the Venice Benefit of receiving the vaccine. For those parents under 12 years old, please get vaccinated yourself to protect your child. Its not only to protect you as a parent, also to protect your child. Finally for those 12 and under who can get vaccinated and are indoors, maybe around other people in large crowds, the importance of wearing a mask. Those are the three points i would love to get across. The Mask Thing is an issue because some in the schools have backed away because the governor come out against them. Our job is experts is to recommend what is best in terms of the safety of the children in our community we dont get into the politics of the issues but, recommending the safety for the kids in the area. Perhaps earlier in the pandemic when we had been dealing with a different strain of the virus spread it wasnt necessarily concerning this Delta Variant is different. This is a different ball game. What we need to do is protect the children and those around them by wearing masks, especially while they are indoors. Protect the children. Thats a good enough reason for a lot of people to put the mask on. Doctor mestre thank you for being with us. Thank you for the work that you and your colleagues are doing at the nicholas Childrens Hospital in miami. Thank you. Raleigh heres a headline from the New York times board today. You should resign. Governor cuomo. They already called and Governor Cuomo to resign earlier this. Here they are out tonight with an inter editorial saying cuomo is unfit for office. The Buffalo News Editorial put it in these terms, a. G. s Report Document Misconduct that Cuomo Cannot overcome. Thanks to the decline of local media, chronicles are now owned by the same company that saved some and can use the same Hide Line in both papers. The report isnt, Governor Cuomo must resign now. In 24 hours there was a report talking about cuomo sexually assaulting 12 women. He denies. It every major newspaper in New York says that cuomo should resign from every even every member in his party is saying the same thing that he should resign and the president of the united states. A longtime Cuomo Ally join the Coursing Calling for the governor to step down. A new merriest poll conducted Last Night after the news broke, found 63 of registered voters in New York think the governor should resign, including a majority of democrats. The Associated Press reports in majority of new York City assembly once to get cuomo out if he doesnt step down. Theyre facing more than political pressure. Today, prosecutors in manhattan, nasa, and West Chester County several requested information from the new York Attorney Generals Office saying that criminal investigation may be underway. Those requests come on the heels of Albany District Attorney david soares, announcing that he has already opened a criminal investigation to Governor Cuomos alleged in the capital. On the allegations early on surely lead prosecutors with encourage jurisdiction and well conduct our own independent investigation it will be done expeditiously. In addition to that, a lawyer for cuomos first public accuser, lindsey boylan, tone the New York times she wants to sue the Advice Governor and his advisers. With the public, political, legal pressure now mounting on cuomo, will he resign . Joining us now as rebecca traister, shes been covering the cuomo saga. Rebecca, good to see you this evening. The City Newspaper rebecca is saying, it is no longer a matter of time if he will resign, but when. Several political observers who have known cuomo for years told the city on the condition of anonymity. Its an interesting statement, rebecca. Andrew cuomo is combative. He has said repeatedly he will not resign. Yesterday after these findings came, out he pushed back hard. What do you think is happening here . Well, i will be very fascinated if his stance has changed. You are absolutely right that his initial reaction to this report, which is an extensive document, 168 pages over 1000 footnoted Sources Cooperation and i think something like 74,000 documents that the attorney Generals Office made reference to, almost 200 sources who they went to for a testimony. His immediate response to this kind of astonishingly robust investigation was a swift and aggressive and i believe dishonest set of denials and the indication that he wasnt gonna go anywhere. It is been his nature to try to retain his power by refusing to budge. If the amount of pressure that is being brought to bear by the press and his fellow democrats a strong enough to get him to budge and step down, that will be a remarkable story. Tell me what thats like because, he has built up a remarkable set of allies in the state and around the country. He was a secretary in the administration at one point. The president asked for him to resign, other governors have called for. And everybody in the New York assembly, democrats have, everybody in the new York Delegate in. The polling indicates that people want him to resign. What does support for Andrew Cuomo look like right now . I think it looks like andrew and Equipments Relationship to powers with so many of these allegations are about right . Ons are about right . He is a very oldfashioned grip on power, hes the Governor Son of a former governor. He has a classically white patriarchal, Literally Patriarchal Grip on power. He believes in top down power. A lot of the allegation, some of which are about Sexualized Aspirant in a couple cases of his, so a lot of which are other reported again legations about bullying and abusive professional practices, within his office and the executive chamber. Then of course a whole other set of reporting about the coverup of Nursing Home deaths. A lot of this is about a very oldfashioned approach to power. Intimidation, fear, threat. Fostering the kind of loyalty that he would count on, in a moment like this. And of course what youre seeing, what you are describing, is the entire political outweighs giving way at the face of this incredibly damning evidence. And so what does that look like for Andrew Cuomo . He does not have a lot of that loyalty that he would have counted on for a lot of his career. On the other hand we have contemporary models, including Donald Trump, including Ralph Northam and justin fairfax, Governor And Lieutenant governor in virginia. Who a couple of years ago also had members of their own party calling on them to resign, in the face of their own scandals. And they just did not. They kept their jobs. Donald trump, was impeached. Kept his job. There are models for how you paddle through this, and keep your job. In Fact Cuomo did that in the spring. He had his party in the senators from New York calling on resign back in march. And he is still a governor. There is a model for him having tufted out already this year. This is a very different story. This is an Attorney Generals report. We will continue to cover this as well you rebeca. Thank you rebecca. New York Magazine writer, we always appreciate your time. Donald trump might not be the president anymore about the courts and the rest of the country are still living on the loose threads of his legal issues. Well have that on coming up.

Its wireless so good, it keeps one upping itself. ,. ,. But now trump and his lawyers are able to tie that up in court for longer. They remain many trailing ems handing out there. That need to be dealt with in some way. Heres another thing thats not over, finding out exactly how close we came to the trump white house, actually intervening to overturn the 2020 election. Actually using the power of the executive branch, to change the results of the election. Abc news got hold of a letter drafted by a senior Trump Justice Department official at The End of december, addressed to the republican governor of georgia and legislative leaders in that state. The Draft Letter would have told those georgia officials, that the Justice Department, the united states Justice Department, but weaved that the Election Results in multiple states were in doubt. The letter instructed georgias republican leader to call a special session of the legislature, in order to potentially overrule biden winning that state, and a Point A Slate of president ial electors, for trump instead. When trumps acting Attorney General, refused to sign off on that letter, trump wanted to replace him, with the guy who drafted the letter, telling georgia to overrule its voters. It was only a threat of Mass Resignation from the Justice Department that trump to back off. Tonight we know that threat was not abstract. Political published a Draft Resignation Letter from another very senior official in trumps Justice Department. He wrote it on january 3rd, when Trump Summit is acting Attorney General to the white house, during that meeting at which everyone assume trump was going to fire the acting Attorney General, and replace him with the election conspiracy guy, this other senior official, back at the Justice Department wrote his resignation letter, he was ready to hit send, quote, this evening after acting Attorney General over the course of the last week repeatedly refused the president s direct instructions to utilize the department of Justices Line Forsman powers for improper ends, the president remove jeff from the department. Rich donahue. Thats the number two in command of the Justice Department. Rich donahue and i resigned from the department, effective immediately, end quote. The acting Attorney General survive that attorney meeting, so the Resignation Liver was never. Sent the reason were learning this now as their ongoing active congressional investigations, into those final weeks in the trump white house. The Senate Judiciary Committee is investigating chairman dick durbin, the chairman of the committee told my colleague Last Night, they will be calling witnesses in the coming days and weeks, in the House Oversight Committee reportedly spent several hours yesterday, interviewing that top justice official, who drafted the resignation letter. What more can we expect to learn . Joining us now is a member of the House Oversight Committee, illinois congressman, thank you for joining, us you and i have talked about some amazing things over the last few. Years this is really out there. There was a senior official of the Justice Department, fully expecting his two bosses to get fired, because they would not agree to Donald Trumps request to call the election corrupt or to somehow undermine the election. He was ready to hit send. It was even a surprise to him that Jeffrey Rosen did not get fired. Thats, right that shows you how close we were to a calamitous results in the Justice Department, this Gentleman A Fellow member of the complicated surname club, decided that basically its very possible that his boss and his Bosses Boss were about to be fired, for not calling the Trump Election corrupt. And basically not trying to overturn the elections. That goes to show how close we were to a Donald Trump getting his way. Congressman, the other thing we were looking at is this Justice Department drafts, that was going to go to Georgia Election officials. Again this is, we know about the phone calls, we know about Donald Trump in would find 11,000 votes, and we know he said he asked for a, favorites will the Justice Department, you dont have to actually find anything, you just have to say this and leave the rest to me. We now know that they actually wanted, georgia republicans, to basically throughout the election. To basically elect a sly of Polo Trump members of congress, in the context of everything thats going on today, with the Voter Suppression, laws this brings it all into sharper relief. It sure does. It turns out this guy Jeff Clark was writing and drafting these types of, letters to all six states, that ended up going for Joe Biden. I think that what we see is the beginning of the effort to overturn the election, and i think that what we see now, in terms of Voter Suppression efforts, is just a continuation of those efforts. And unfortunately, probably what we are going to see more of it in the run up to 2024. Its all the more reason why we need more transparency, as to what happened in the aftermath of the 2020 election as well. Im pleased that weve seen an example in the Justice Department in this. Letter of someone whos willing to stand up to the injustice. We now know that Jeffrey Rosen was willing to stand up to Donald Trump. On Monday Night i interviewed lieutenant vindman, who said theres other people in the government like him, prepared to stand up and do the right thing, how do we assure ourselves that this kind of thing cannot just happen. A corrupt president cannot just try to corrupt the Justice Department and overturn democracy. I think thats a great question. I think at this point, here we have to realize that we cant just trust that theres going to be people of integrity in these high offices, including the presidency, so what needs to be done at the Justice Department, to put into place reforms, to prevent it from being used as an instrument for overturning an election by the very president who lost. Those are the types of questions we have to ask now. In all the more reason i would say that we need to put into place whatever reforms are necessary to shore up our democracy and to protect it, for the next elections. Let me put in a Special Plug for hr1 and fs1, the for the people act. We need that right now. We are seeing evidence, that is more important. Congressman, thank you for joining. Us hes a member of the house Orders Sake Committee in the intelligence. Committee we have a new development in the story that rachel has been following very closely. Im going to tell you more about when we come back. To tell you more about when we come back. About when we come back. Hey google, turn up the heat. Limu Emu Doug oh are you using liberty Mutuals Coverage Customizer tool . Sorry . Well, since you asked. It finds discounts and policy recommendations, so you only pay for what you need. Limu, youre an animal whos got the Bird Legs now . Only pay for what you need. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. I was injured in a car crash. I had no idea how much my case was worth. I called the Barnes Firm. I want to tell you the story of when a Truck Hit my son, i had so many questions about his case. I called the Barnes Firm. It was the best call i couldve made. Your case is often worth more than insuran call the Barnes Firm to find out i couldve made. What your case could be worth. We will help get you the best result possible. The Barnes Firm, Injury Attorneys call one eight hundred,est resul Eight Million two missouris. The first one starts with this man so, why do you do . How do you start over your life at 62 . I you know, i kind of joke when you talk about it. Recently with a friend of mine, i lived in a cardboard box. I would get up under the bridge somewhere. Thats really how youre going to start, you feel . Why do i have . I mean, if they were to tell me right now they would take this chair. I had to crawl out the front door. I would have nothing. That Mans Name is Kevin Strickland. He has spent more than 40 years behind bars and missouri for a triple worded that he maintains he did not commit. What makes mr. Stricklands case unique is that, everyone else involved in his case also believes he is innocent. The case against him was based primarily on a single witness who recounted her testimony. At the two other men convicted in conjunction with the crime also say strickland had nothing to do with it. Perhaps most importantly, the Prosecutors Office that convicted struggling in the first place thinks he is innocent. That office called his conviction the result of a quote, profound error. Why is Kevin Strickland still in prison . To answer that, you have to look forward. Its two one person in missouri with the power to free him and anytime with the stroke of a pen. Missouri governor mike parson. He is no stranger to the pardon power. We went back and checked, and since prosecutors stated there believed that Mister Strickland was innocent, Governor Parsons has issued three rounds of pardon. He has pardoned 66 people. He has commuted the sentences of two others. Kevin strickland, however, never made the cut. When asked about mister Stricklands Case back in june, Governor Parsons and mr. Stricklands case was not a priority, and that he shouldnt be able to quote, jump in front of the line. Should be able to Front And Jump in front of the. Line thats Missouri Number one. And Missouri Number to reward this kind of behavior. This is Mark And Patricia mccloskey, they became famous in june of last year by pointing guns at black Lives Matter protesters on the front of their st. Louis mansion. They spoke at the republican campaign and then they commended they were guilty of second degree assault. Mark mccloskey said from the courthouse steps that he would quote, do it again if faced with the same circumstances. Heres the thing, yesterday, missouri Governor Mark Parson pardon both Mark And Patricia mccloskey, neither of whom were facing jail time to begin with. They got to jump right to the front of the line well Kevin Strickland, jailed for 40 years, remained jailed for a crime he and the state says he didnt commit. Think about that for second. Joining us now is crystal quade, democratic Minority Leader in the House Of Representatives who spoke about forcefully, about this double standard of justice. Representative quite, thank you for joining. Us thank you for being with. Us what do you make of this. Governor parsons saying Strickland Cant Jump the queue, but this other couple gets it. First of all, thank you for having me. One i think about this, its disgusting. We have been discussing Kevin Stricklands case in our state for sometime. Prosecutors office, along with the eyewitness and the victim have recanted the situation. The prosecutor are saying he needs to be released and he is innocent. Then the governor says its not a priority. A very few minutes later hed then Pardons Mccloskey who would jump the line, its terrible. One of those on the outside here missing . If there are this many people in the case, who say this guy didnt commit the crime and hes been in jail for two years, what is the governors patients that he needs . The slow down and not rush this thing. Whats behind that . The only thing i could say is politics. We have a contested race here in missouri where the Senator Rory Blood been in office for quite sometime, not seeking relation. We have a disgraced governor, our Attorney General running, and we have a course Mark Mccloskey running. Governor Parson Jumping in and doing this and completely disregarding innocent men in person like Kevin Strickland, and another high Profile Case Mark johnson. Hes completely ignoring these individuals and moving through the mcleod skis, its pure politics. His reasoning, he once got a question if this is an endorsement from the governor himself. That was the next question i would ask. Is the governor weighing in on the fact that mccloskey, who hes pardoned, Mark Mccloskey. Hes running basically on this wacky fame that he got from pointing a gun at these protesters. He hasnt actually said anything specifically about an endorsement. During Governor Parsonss own Election Campaign last year, he said right out the gate that he planned to parted them as soon as he was reelected. In my opinion, i know a lot of folks here in missouri, this is essentially an endorsement. He saying he supports these folks and that he believes they are more important than these innocent individuals them we have a price weighted. What is justice for Kevin Strickland even look like right now . I dont know we can even quantify that. This man has been in prison for over 40 years. In our state without dna evidence, and there is not financial benefit that he could receive. I believe, had this, point just let the men love his life. Everyone whos been involved in the case say he shouldnt be in prison. When a state we are trying to do Criminal Justice reform, and the Governor And Southside trying to get more people out of prison. This is just shameful. Lets talk about what else can be done for him. Obviously, pardon would be good, but what else is happening with Kevin Strickland . What else can be done to get him out of jail . Fortunately, this legislative session we did pass some legislation that will go in effect at The End of august. It will allow the Prosecuting Attorney in just where the judge can then release him based on that petition. We are hopeful that once the law does go into effect at The End of the month, she intends to move forward with that and hopefully will be able to get some justice. Crystal quade thank you for joining us. Tonight she is the democratic minority in the House Of Representatives. We appreciate your time tonight. We are just weeks away from the united states completed withdraw troops from afghanistan. Ed Statethe Fate of thousands of afghans who remain there is uncertain. You will not want to miss. This i will be joined by a former afghan translator from Inside Afghanistan right after this. Right after this it was October Of 2010 and fighting the between the taliban and u. S. Troops was intense. In a small district in helmand province, in afghanistan, over 100 u. S. And british troops died inaction. It became known as the battle of sand jean, marine said this was the fiercest battleground during the entire war of afghanistan. He knows, he was there during the worst of it. He and his platoon stared death in the face on multiple occasions but, they had a secret weapon against the taliban. An afghan interpreter. Major showman calls the interpreter, zak. That is not his real. Names that just a young man when he teamed up with the u. S. Troops in the battle of san jean. Very few interpreters ventured to do that because that particular area was so dangerous. Day in and day out, zach risked his life to help the u. S. Troops. On one occasion in november 20, ten zach overheard a Radio Conversation that The Americans had intercepted featuring a taliban commander. He learned enough together where the enemies were hiding and he found a unit as soon as they could but zach knew he couldnt wait long so he crossed The Field on his own and tackle the taliban commander. He saved many lives that. Day in another instance, zach picked up the rainfall of a wounded american soldier, that assisted u. S. Troops and battle. Zak work for the u. S. Marines for nine months before going to work for about two years with a contractor who provided services to the u. S. Army. Despite all of his Work Zach has been denied a visa to come to the u. S. , since the threshold to qualify for a special visa is two years of service, the u. S. Government wants back to verify the time he worked for that contractor. But the contractor is no longer active. That cannot find them. Neither can major shoe men. Zak applied for the visa, five years of now past, but he has heard from the taliban. The group, is csec as a traitor who protected The Americans. They want him dead. They send him letters, asking him to surrender. He received a last letter two weeks ago. Since then zach has been in hiding. Well he awaits official recognition from the u. S. , major Shoe Man has been helping him in his individual capacity, as an active duty marine, who wants to keep his former interpreter alive. Hes not the only one who is helping zach. About two months ago, senator anthony blinken, specifically about zachs case. Im going to send you from the articles thomas sherman, Shoe Minaret are, he talks about the fact that It Interpreter who risked his life to save this marine corps officer, is now at risk himself. I saw that, i read that article. Can you give me your insurance as youve been asked by this senator and, others that this will be a high priority to protect those Men And Women and their families, whose lives are at risk because they were willing to stand up on our side . Yes absolutely. That was june 8th. That was almost two months and theres still no answer, which sadly means that the situation for hundreds of afghan nationals, who fought alongside our troops, are currently in limbo, now that u. S. Forces are departing the country. They dont ask for much. Just a u. S. Visa, for risking their lives in support of the u. S. Effort. Joining us now is active marine officer, founder of the that helps communities across america. He served two tours in afghanistan, also with us tonight is back. Who worked as an interpreter for the united States Governor in afghanistan, hes awaiting these approval, to come to the united states, He Zach is not his real. Name we are protecting his identity and his location, for security reasons. Gentlemen welcome to both of you. Zak, thank you for being here. I would like you to tell as in please tell our viewers, with the threat to you is right now. The taliban knows your phone, number they know things about you. They know where you lived. And they have pretty much made it clear that they will kill you and your family. Thank you sir. I appreciate you to put my words to the world. The taliban knows things about us, because they are looking for the people who has done the work for the u. S. Forces. And they are looking to target them and kill them. Now with the help of mr. Shoe men, its part of my promise now, in the department for leaving shuman, and its all the situation. They want me to send out the charged with a combination later, but i dont have that. And i dont have contact with the team with which i worked with. I dont have contact. I have an email. When i email them, they say this email is not exist in the system. The work i have done with marine forces, i had their hr, but and fortunately they did not accept, that because it is for nine months. , and. Just so our viewers understand, the u. S. Requires that you work for two years, you had nine months with the marines, you spent extra time with this contractor. This is the person youre emailing and youre trying to get a Letter Or Confirmation of the work that you did, but you cannot find him. In the u. S. Is not authorizing you because of that. Yes the email which i work with the army, this email is not working now. When i contact them or email them, they say this email is not in the system. Thats why they want to meet to work with the army, to prove. And i dont have it. The email is not working. Im wondering how to contact them, and still i just started my process in 2016, and there is still nothing, no progress. I just give my promise. Major shuman, this is a remarkable situation. Can you a test for the purposes of rv, users and four americans were wondering about this. Can you attest to whats exacted with your team . Yes sir. Zak undoubtedly risked life and limb, zak undoubtedly went Above And Beyond his duties as an interpreter. Whether that was running through a minefield, to detain an enemy, or picking up a rifle after one of my marines got hurt, to help to provide covering. Fire zak has made more sacrifices for this country, and risk more for this country than most of our citizens. He has nine months of verified valorous honorable service with the marine corps. During the most lethal battle that the marines fought and you would think that nine months would be sufficient, it is not. And we have not been able to push his keys forward for over five years, because nine months apparently is not sufficient. You have advocated for, him Senator Dermot has advocated for him. They are in the province where you both work together, the taliban has made great advances there already. There is real danger to this interpreters thats left behind at what sounds like technicalities, about people like zack, this is a matter of Life And Death for him in his family. Absolutely, the capital is under attack. My thoughts and prayers are with the soldiers there that are fighting. Zak, the Provinces Zach is in is now overran by the taliban. I had to support zach with about 9,000 over the last, week to be able to transport his family safely out of this province, because it takes a lot of money to get through some of these checkpoints. And get all the way to kabul. Even with that, zak is still not safe, and zach is still potentially not going to be evacuated, when the evacuation finishes. Fortunate that were able to assist sack. But many interpreters, you say hundreds, i would say thousands are in this case and they dont have the same support right now. Its something that needs to be addressed. Zak, people are curious about this story. They care about these interpreters, and others who helped american troops in the area. What message do you have right now . For the president of the united states, and for americans, about the situation that you and others like you face . First of all i say to the President Biden, we are respecting you, because you are the leader of america. We wear your alliance, and the mission of the united states, we help the mission of the united states, now it is your time, our american friends, our american partners, to help us, and get us out of this crisis.
