That is still raging in North Carolina. It is actually about more than one crazy guy. And he is definitely crazy if you read any of the things he has said. Its about more than one important swing state. Believe me, North Carolina is very important. This is a story about the corner the Republican Party has backed itself into. As im sure you have heard by now are probably wish you good on here or see. Mark robinson, the republican nominee for governor North Carolina posted a lot of Stephanie Porn say. He called himself a black Porn T and supported reinstating slavery. Thats according to a thorough report from cnn that came out last week. Now, surprise surprise, ever since then robinson has repeatedly denied making those comments. What we heard from him today is just about as trumping as you can get. We are in talks right now, everything up to legal counsel to take cnn to task for what they have done. We are going after them. We are going to go after them for what they have done. Threaten
Right now on Andrea Mitchell reports, President Biden giving his final speech to the united nations, defending his legacy of creating global alliances, even as the world is racked with the wars in europe and the middle east. And israel pushes further into lebanon and the u. S. Sends troops to the region to evacuate americans if diplomacy fails. Fullscale war is not in anyones interest, even in a situation thats escalated, a diplomatic solution is still possible. In his first u. S. Televised interview, irans new President Wont Rule out retaliating against israel for assassinating a Hamas Leader in Tehrans Capital and tells me that hezbollah, hamas, and the houthis are not irans proxies, despite western intelligence saying otherwise. We will respond in a manner of our choosing. We support those who fight for their freedom. It doesnt mean that we have proxies. They dont fight on our behalf. Plus, my interview with nobel laureate, Malala Youssef and her continue for push for women in leade
Headquarters in new york city. Calls for peace in an increasingly dangerous world. As the crisis in lebanon deepens, and the Death Toll mounts, President Biden uses this final u. N. Address to urge global unity. But in a world wrecked by conflict, uncertainty and change, the harsh reality of limitations of diplomacy. Plus, the subset of voters with potentially outsized impact. The ticketsplitters in swing states, boosting Donald Trump and downballot democrats at the same time. Whats happening . That aims the barrage of baseless antimigrant claims in charleroi, pennsylvania. What our reporter found out on a visit to a town of about 4,000 people, after springfield, ohio, got the trump treatment. Lots to get to, but we start with President Biden in the u. N. Making a case for global unity at a time when wars in Gaza And Ukraine can make it feel like things are falling apart. The war In Gaza, almost a year old, and israel launched more Strikes Today following its deadliest attacks in leban
Try to remember a more consequential start to the united nations general assembly. You would probably have to go back to 2001 when the week opened on september 12th. Just a day after 9 11. Today, there are wars in Ukraine And Sudan and gaza. Another one threatened in lebanon and one looming in the south china sea. American troops are once again deployed on the fringes just in case and now the leaders or the major representatives of all of those countries are gathered right here in new york city. What are they saying privately to each other . And how much does it differ from what theyre saying publicly . The Qatari Amir was pretty blunt saying in israel doesnt want to negotiate for peace. The new iranian president was slightly more measured than usual, saying the country does not seek a wider war in The Middle East but no peace is possible while civilians in gaza are in his words, ruthlessly killed. And President Biden speaking to the assembly for the last time as a leader of the free w
Day to election voting. Youre looking at a registered independent who is proud to vote again and again and again because im an american and that is what americans do. Early voting has already started in some states. The election is basically here. It is here. Candidates ask people to vote because that is the whole purpose of a campaign. Win more votes. And that is usually meant motivating people for Election Day which is why we hear so much about voting occurring on a single day. I like the part when you dont go to school on Election Day. The candidates an the voters cast their ballots. 81 Million voted four years ago, the population has grown since then and more than 81 Million ought to vote this time. Polls are open now. By tonight after the polls close, we will know who our 41st president will be. The emphasis there is on Election Day. But that framework is out of date. The most recent president ial election marks a shift that is still sinking in, 2020 was the first race where a maj
