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.
