Was good for south dakota. We had millions missing. Potential 140 million fraud. The former secretary of the Governors Office of Economic Development committed suicide. We just heard saying that it couldnt have been a suicide. I dont believe that squares well with the people here in south dakota or anywhere in the country. Good to have you with us. Thanks for watching. Well, in three weeks voters will decide if republicans will control both houses of congress. Some have been predicting doom and gloom for the democrats for months. Tonight ill show you what the beltway just might be missing. I spent last week in iowa and in south dakota. In the hawkeye state, new polls shows joni ernst slipping to a onepoint lead over congress and bruce braley, mike rounds is sinking like a rock in his bid to fill senator tim johnsons seat. Prairie pop you list rick wallace former senator and socalled independent Larry Pressler brings up of here. These put in over 2 million into this race. The dscc put m
Alert. After facing major criticism for its message or lack thereof following the first ebola diagnosis on american soil and subsequent infections of two nurses, the white house is now appointed this man, ron klain, to be the obama administrations ebola czar. Now, the problem is klain is not and never has been a doctor and he has no extensive background in health care. Instead, he has served as a senior white house aid to president obama, chief of staff to Vice President biden and chief of staff former Vice President al gore. Not surprisingly the appointment is being slammed by republicans. Take a look at what texas senator ted cruz had to say about this over the weekend. Mr. Klain is not a doctor, hes not a health care professional. He doesnt have background in these issues. We should be less concerned about giving the public the feeling that the government is on top of this and more concerned about the government actually being on top of it. This is a manifestation.

To Vice President biden and chief of staff former Vice President al gore. Not surprisingly the appointment is being slammed by republicans. Take a look at what texas senator ted cruz had to say about this over the weekend. Mr. Klain is not a doctor, hes not a health care professional. We should be less concerned about giving the public the feeling that the government is on top of this and more concerned about the government actually being on top of it. This is a manifestation. We dont need another white house political operative, which is what mr. Klain has been. What we need is president ial leadership. The person who needs to be on top of this is the president of the United States standing up and leading and treating it as a Public Health emergency. Foxs own ed henry is standing by tonight. Hes at the white house. He has the latest on how the administration is responding to the criticism. You know, ed, i guess the main question is we have some of the best most renowned doctors, peopl

Now, also tonight airports are ramping up screenings including Dulles International outside of d. C. And thats where we find tonight foxs own Shannon Breen with the very latest. Shannon. Sean, four additional airports did start those beefed up screenings today including here at Dulles International airport outside of washington. The Administration Says the heightened screenings are proof that it is keeping up with things and adapting and changing as we learn more about the ebola threat. The improved or strengthened screening measures are indicative of our commitment to constantly evaluating our policies and where possible putting in place measures that would strengthen them. The screenings have already been taking place at jfk. Passengers are met by custo
Health officials still dont know exactly how two Health Care Workers contracted ebola. Was it a break in protocol with their safety gear . Did they have the proper gear . Is the protocol the correct protocol . 75 other Health Care Workers are being monitored. We are preparing contingen contingencies for more and that is a very real possibility. You can imagine the anxiety of the families of these 77 people. We rallied together and decided we needed to move quickly like we did sunday morning to make sure two things happen. One that effective cleaning was done as soon as possible and, two, neighbors and the citizens were communicated. Nurses who worked in this hospital are telling their union that they were not trained to deal with ebola patients. They point out serious lapses in safety in dealing with duncan. So what is most important now is for the cdc to get the facts. Which is what it is doing in dallas. However, criticism is mounting from those like the nurses union who say much mor
