Throughout the next two hours, you dont want to miss it. We begin with a stark contrast how President Biden and President Trump are marking 9 11. Not long from now biden is scheduled to make highways to the pentagon after visiting both Ground Zero and shanksville, pennsylvania, to honor the lives lost that harrowing day. Meanwhile, former President Trump who is set to offer commentary at a Boxing Match this evening used the majority of his address marking the anniversary to bash biden over his withdrawal from afghanistan. This is the 20th year of this war and should have been a year of Victory And Honor and strength. Instead, Joe Biden and his inept administration surrendered in defeat. The former president did make a trip to the nypds 17th Precinct hours ago to honor the sacrifice made by the citys first responders but took time to criticize the president once again over the withdrawal. I want to bring in nbcs Mike Memoli who has been with us all day and is at the White House for us n

The taliban has promised that afghanistan would never again be a base For terrorists after taking over the country last month. The M15 Warning comes on the eve of the 20th Anniversary of the 9 11 attacks. Well have more that in a moment, but first heres our Security Correspondent Gordon Corera on Ken Mccallums comments.

That they will not get the shot when it is until it has full and final approval of the fda, it has now happened. The moment you have been waiting for is here. It is time for you to go get your vaccination and get it today. Today. The president also urged businesses to require employees to get vaccinated now that the Pfizer Shot is fully approved. It signals a shift from a Vaccine Push to a vaccine must. Frankly, it couldnt come at a more crucial time. The Health Care system, frankly, is collapsing in parts of the country due to the strain of the unvaccinated. A group of around 75 South Florida doctors staged a Walkout Today to protest the number of unvaccinated covid patients flooding into their hospital. Now the antivaxxers, they seem to have a thing for Death And Home remedies, claiming the new Covid Cure is livestock dewormer.

Were not here to talk about the historic criminalization and penalty for communities of color for so long. Here is what we are here for to hear from the appellant, the planning department, and the opposition to this project. As the board of supervisors, it is our duty to review this project with a fresh set of eyes, and it is our duty to review all the materials that have been presented impartially and diligently. This appeal is hard to determine, but the information has been presented.
