Transcripts For FOXNEWS Americas Newsroom 20241009

Us an update on preparations for milton from the White House. The ongoing response to Hurricane Helene. Well take you live to the White House minutes away. Welcome to a new hour of americas newsroom, im dana perino. Bill i hate to see that radar, just see that thing churn out there. A big one. Im bill hemmer, good morning at home. The storm really, if you have checked out for a day or so, you missed a major headline. This thing really came out of nowhere Yesterday Morning i would argue between 8 00 a. M. And 11 00 a. M. Eastern time and got cranked up coming off the Yucatan Peninsula In Mexico and now going through the Gulf Of Mexico warm waters. Dana they are warning it could become one of the most destructive hurricanes on record and the state of florida is getting ready to brace for this direct hit as bill was saying. A massive exodus now underway. Millions of residents rushing to evacuate the coast and other lowlying areas with hours left before Miltons Arrival as crews scramble to clean up debris from Hurricane Helene. Britta was telling us about that last hour before milton can turn that material into missiles. Bill Gillian Turner begins at the White House. We believe this hour well await the news on that. We begin with you, gillian. Good morning to you, bill and dana. As milton is Barreling Tart the Florida West Coast the administration grappling with the Reality Theyll have to dole out hundreds of millions in more Disaster Aid even as people in North Carolina are still reeling. Even as fema itself is facing the prospect of running dry. President biden sent a letter to members of congress urging them to cut their recess short. Return to d. C. To address the forthcoming shortfall in small Business Relief for hurricane victims. Karine jeanpierre as a result faced Questions Yesterday why the White House can summarily send funds overseas to lebanon but not storm victims in the u. S. An exchange she had with colleague peter doocy. The administration has money to send to lebanon without congress coming back. But congress does have to come back to approve money to send to people in North Carolina. Do i have that right . More than 200 Million that we have provided to the impacted areas and but instead people want to do disinformatiOn And misinformation. Which is dangerous. Which is dangerous. There is not enough money right now for people in North Carolina who need it . Thats not misinformation. No, your whole premise of the question is mision, sir. What you dont get which part . The way you are asking me the question the misinformation. There is money were allocating to the impacted areas and money there to help people who truly need it. There are survivors who need the funding. Who need the funding and it is there. I said i said we have the money available to help survivors of Hurricane Helene and also Hurricane Milton. Dhs Secretary Mayorkas said there are likely not enough Fema Emergency funds to last beyond the near term immediate what they already are dealing with in the aftermath of helene, bill. Lets hope the president maybe has some good news to deliver coming up later in the hour. What he will address all of this directly to the american people. Bill and dana. Bill thank you. Stand by for more from the White House. Dana Dana Marie Mcnicholl is in miami beach, florida. A few people have tried to escape and gone to miami. How does it look there . Thats right, dana, because miami, fort lauderdale, the bigger cities arent in the direct path of milton but were still under the tropical storm warning. Flood watches and why you can see behind me this is a sandbag distribution center. It is quiet here right now. Of course, the message across the state is this is your time to prepare. If you are under a mandatory evacuation, do it now. As you can see they are loading the sandbags into the car for residents in miami. But in Parts North of us like lakeland, florida, we have video of Cars Snaking around the Parking Lot. They were there from open to close 5 45 at night and cars even in the Parking Lot that couldnt get enough sandbags because they couldnt make it to the front of the line in time. Now in tampa, Grocery Store shelves are empty as residents were told to evacuate yesterday and get on the road. Finding gas has been a challenge for many. One couple went to six Gas Stations before they found any. They are down. Crazy, wawa, crazy. It is what it is. Everyone is out. Governor desantis said florida is accumulating Fuel Reserves with 1. 5 Million gallons and says there is no Fuel Shortage now. The state is working quickly to resupply Gas Stations. Evacuation orders are in effect for most of the West Coast and up and down the gulf. The Police Chief In The City between than st. Peter and sarasota with helene the water got between four and fiving feet in surge and expecting double that for milton. We will not be here. The wind alone causes us to have to leave the island. Fire, police, ems, everybody will be off the island. There will be nobody to rescue you. Of course, back out here live again the message is get your preparations ready today. Evacuate. Of course, keep watching the multiple Press Conferences that Governor Desantis will hold and hear from President Biden soon. Dana thank you so much. Well stay in touch. Bill for more Tulsi Gabbard is here and play the director of fema who was with bret last night. President trump is well familiar with florida. Is he doing something now before this Storm Hits . Lets start there. President trump is continuing to do what weve seen him do in the wake of Hurricane Helene, reaching out and providing support directly for those who need it the most. It is heartbreaking, bill and dana, just to see those who are still trying to recover in the wake of helene. Now they are in florida recognizing there is an even bigger hurricane that is headed their way. One of the most inspiring things and hopeful things that has come in the wake of these disasters is how many of our fellow americans are stepping up to help fill the gap in the federal government and in some cases the state Governments Failure to meet the needs of people in these communities. I was there in North Carolina a couple of days ago and really I Cant put into words the devastatiOn And the sense of loss that people feel there where their vehicles, their homes, their small businesses, their jobs swept away and gone in an instant. I was asking a local mayor of a town with a population of less than 500 people what about insurance . Most people dont have Flood Insurance. This is not an area prone to flooding in their lifetimes. Yet here they said this is a 500 Year Flood they experienced. Ive been raising money through my nonprofit. Were deploying supplies to North Carolina. Chain sauce, Star Link set up and fuel. Well be here for people in florida as well. They need help now. What i saw in North Carolina was a reminder of what we experienced in maui last year in the wake of those historic fires. Fema was saying were here and on the ground. What i saw in hawaii was they were in the town, In The City, they were not out in the communities that needed their help the most. I heard the same from these residents of these very rural communities in North Carolina. They dont have fema knocking on their door. They dont have fema approving contracts to get people to bring the excavators to start clearing the debris to prevent another major disaster from happening should they get more rainfall coming through. The scale of this is just impossible to con say in words. The number one message that people shared with me and asked me to share with others was please dont forget us. This will be a long road ahead for all of them and we have to continue to stand with them whether or not our government, the Harris Biden Administration is doing their job or not. Dana last night the Fema Director was on Special Report with bret baier. Watch here. We have been on the ground since before Hurricane Helene hit florida and before it passed over North Carolina. What i would say is just because somebody doesnt see a person in a Fema Shirt doesnt mean we arent in the area. The entire federal family is there to support the response. Weve been there and we will stay there to make sure we met everybodys needs. Dana do you think fema needs to be enlarged . I think they need to better use its resources and be able to cut through the bureaucratic Red Tape that gets in the way of delivering direct response to people there. They are not good stewards of our taxpayer dollars. Ive seen that in disaster after disaster. You have fema literally keeping their employees and workers in the four seasons, Five Star hotels, while people who have been impacted by the disasters are homeless or staying in tents, finding places to stay in shelters. This is a major problem with fema where they are saying we have this covered. It is just simply not the case in my experience. In so many of these disasters that ive seen and been on the ground for. They are not providing the support for the people who need it most. People are being rejected even when they are applying for the 750 of assistance that Vice President harris announced there in charlotte, North Carolina. The needs are far greater than fema is providing. They are focused so much on their bureaucracy and not actually focused on those who need it the most. Bill Ted You Budde was on with Sean Last Night and how he characterizes the response thus far. It has been characterized by lack of speed, lack of coordinatiOn And misplaced priorities all over. When i talk to the boots on the ground, the boots on the ground today. 18th Airborne Corp and 101st and fort liberty, they were ready. They were ready day one. Again, there was a lot of bureaucratic Hang Wringing at the top. Didnt let the folks go to work. Bill your program we must protect is raising over 3 Hundred Thousand so far. We hope the get numbers higher and find out what happens next. Tulsi thank you for your time. Bill live pictures of evacuations. Going to be a long line now. I74 in collier county, florida out of the Sarasota Area and theyll be moving for some time. Well keep an eye on that picture today. This from last night 60 minutes. So many voters dont know you is that you have changed your position on so many things. I have been traveling our country and listening to folks. Dana 60 minutes pressing Vice President harris on her numerous policy reversals. How she defended the flipflops. Bill Middle East overnight israel intercepting a barrage of missiles out of lebanon as they expand their Ground Operation against hezbollah. Well give you the latest on that in a moment. Dana as Hurricane Milton closes in on florida, crews are racing to clean up debris from Hurricane Helene. The path comes right over us so im hoping it changes a little bit so we dont get all the rain. We see what constant rain can do. It just floods the area.

President biden was due to leave on the 10th, that would be friday, to go to germany and angola. Instead, that trip is now canceled, bill. Instead he is going to stay here. The commanderinchief to help handle Storm Relief according to the White House. Were waiting to hear from President Biden directly. That news just in. The trip is off. Bill Smart Move on his part. Here is the president from wisconsin, check it out. We are going to make america great again. We are going to do it. Were going to do it and quickly. Im traveling around our country from one state to the next to the next. It is my responsibility to eastern the vote. And im going to work to do that. Bill from wisconsin last night. 60 minutes on cbs. Here we go. Our latest Power Rankings the way we see the electoral votes stacked up here. We still see harris with a slight edge and easier path not by much but an easier path at 241 compared to trumps 219. You need 270 to win on the board here. You see in yellow hasnt changed, has it . Really from weektoweek. Nevada is a tossup, arizona, wisconsin, georgia, North Carolina, pennsylvania. Michigan weve got lean dem but there is some suggestions out there it is razor tight in michigan as well. What do you need to get to 270, right . Lets check out the path to the majority, all right . Ill call this up here. The president ial level. Here is what we have, all right . If harris is at 225 for the sake of this argument her path continues the easiest path is wisconsin and michigan and pennsylvania, 269 and this one nebraska two puts her at 270. President trump his easiest way to understand this now is to flip georgia, hold North Carolina, and win pennsylvania here. That would do the trick at 270. Keep in mind. There could be variations before Election Day and on election night. Thats the way we see it for her and him. The easiest path to 270. Back to 60 minutes. More on that now. You have changed your position on so many things. You were against fracking, now you are for it. You supported looser immigration policies, now you are tightening them up. You were for medicare for all, now you are not. So many that people dont truly know what you believe or what you stand for. I have been traveling our country and i have been listening to folks. And seeking what is possible in terms of Common Ground. I believe in building consensus. Dana Vice President Kamala Harris pressed on her flipflops and claiming consensus to explaining the shifting stances. Will that be enough . Bret Baier Editor of Special Report and chief political anchor. I thought Bill Whitaker did a good job you said this, not that. A gentle way and interrupt and press her in ways that gave her opportunities to answer with more substance and she still didnt do it. Totally agree. I think bill did a really good job of pushing back in a respectful way but one in which everybody really wanted to hear especially when it came to illegal immigration. I thought that Sound Bite and that stretch of followups was really powerful. Something that Vice President harris hasnt seen in an interviewer up until now. And that is, you know, if you say you are happy about what things have happened in recent months based on the Executive Orders put back in place, why not have done that three years ago . Why did you let the Influx And Flow of illegal immigrants get to such a point where it quadrupled over the bidenharris administration. It was powerful and she didnt have a really good answer to it. Bill here it is. Harris on the border. They went at this a couple of times. Watch what we pulled. Its a longstanding problem. And solutions are at hand. We have been offering solutions. What i was asking was, was it a mistake to kind of allow that flood to happen in the first place . The policies that we have been proposing are about fixing a problem, not promoting a problem. Bill ole. Pull the cape out and let the Bull Run through. She didnt take it head on, thats for sure. Bret three questions on this topic and you kind of get to the point where this is the answer you are going to get. There were a number of those. This is the kind of interview that illuminates maybe where she stands. I think one of the reasons that we havent seen her out is because she hasnt had a lot of trial runs with this kind of interviewer and well see if the campaign continues to go down this road less than 30 days to the election. Dana there was also this. They interviewed Tim Walz the Vice President ial candidate about false statements from his past and the knucklehead comment. Is that kind of misrepresentation, isnt that more than just being a knucklehead . I think folks know who i am. It comes down to the question of whether you can be trusted to tell the truth. Yeah, well, i think i can. I will own up to being a knucklehead at times. But folks closest to me know i keep my word. Dana what do you think of that, bret . Bret Shannon Bream did a good job on Fox News sunday going down these roads and got into the specifics about Abortion And Abortion policy. But on this question about his statements and what he has said and how it really brings up a trust issue, i think again whitaker did a nice job and so did shannon. They have an issue here and the answer that im a knucklehead and i can be trusted and people know who i am, im not sure delivers the specifics that people were looking for. Bill lets talk about the news that dana talked about five minutes ago. President biden was going to europe and canceled that trip. I think its a Smart Move on we agree on that. Probably is smart. We dont know what florida will be treated with, you know . Really thursday morning, bret. You wake up and you will look at some of these islands on the West Coast of florida and there will be a ton of damage and a lot of people will be suffering. Bret weve been through these storms but nothing quite like this in the leadup to when it hits. Hopefully the Wind Sheer hits it and it gets to a four or three but massive storm if it hits in tampa bay. Senator rubio said he was told by the Hurricane Center whats the worst Case Scenario . It is an eye going across that very place. So well have to watch it. Its a Smart Move for President Biden. I thought Governor Desantis has been good about the interaction with the federal government and was really pointed about the whole Back And Forth about Vice President harris and the call. Dana it preempts one of dew Points Rule of international travel. Whenever they go Something Big goes on back home. You dont want to be caught overseas. If you care about the senate races, you will want to listen to my podcast. Bill check it out. Now is the time to execute your plan. You have time to get to a shelter. You have time to evacuate further than that if thats what you want. But that time is running out. Bill this governor has seen too much of this. The word is out. Florida officials telling folks to head to safer ground while the going is still good. Hurricane milton fast approaching. Middle east, antiisrael protestors flooding new York City on the anniversary of the October 7th terror attacks. The mob finding Common Ground with hamas. [shouting] dad and i finally had that talk. No, not that talk. About what the future looks like. For me. I may have trouble getting around, but i want to live in my home where im comfortable and my friends are nearby. I can do it with the help of a barber, personal Shopper And Exercise buddy. Someone who can help me live right at home. Lifes good. When you have a plan.

Dana the devastation from Hurricane Helene Ham Purring the delivery of aid to western North Carolina and raising doubts if people who live there are able to vote. On some peoples minds. Griff jenkins has the story from North Carolina. Hi, griff. Good morning. You can see here in this city this mailbox is standing but there is no one in this home to receive a ballot should one be coming. You can see the devastation on this house. Debris in the front yard. A Waterline Mark five feet up. You look up the street and it is every house on this street. A local told me the local Post Office had flooding and it is closed. Early voting begins across the state next thursday and why the State Board of elections passed an Emergency Measure Yesterday giving 13 counties in western North Carolina devastated by the storm broad authority to change their Election Plans allowing them to change early voting. Election Day Polling sites as well as how they can send more options to send ballots to the voters. Some of the designated sites are unusable. Staffers are possibly without power or even worse displaced from their homes. State board of Election Official had this to say. I want to make sure that these people are safe from this storm and able to carry out their right to vote through this. We are going to get this job done because thats our work no matter what the election, no matter the circumstances to insure that every eligible voter is able to cast their ballot. Take a look. Every vote will count this year in this swing state. In 2020 trump won by less than 1 1 2 . He depended heavily on western North Carolina counties. Right now foxs Power Rankings has this state as a tossup. The Stakes Couldnt be higher. I will give you a little context, dana. Thats this. The folks here i talked to one gentleman and his wife on the street up here. He lost his home. Asked him how he felt how the storm might impact the election. He told me its the last thing on his mind right now. Dana i can imagine thats the case. Griff jenkins. What devastation. Amazing the mailbox is there and nothing else. Thank you. [shouting] bill that was the zone in new york yesterday. Antiisrael protestors taking to the streets on the first anniversary of the Hamas Terror attacks October 7th. The post calling it despicable. Paul mauro, retired Nypd Inspector is talking to a lot of folks. I was sharing an anecdote a moment ago. I lived in norring city more than 20 years. Saw something 9 00 at night last night. 21 or 22 years old walking down Fifth Avenue with a sign that says israel is a terrorist state. You think about the density of the Jewish Population in new york and thats what youve got now. As we were discussing it is not coming from home. This is stuff theyre putting up in the education system. A form of indoctrination. First of all, lets speak legally. Hamas and hezbollah are designated terrorist organizations. So inside of america where this all is happening, these are two terrorist groups. They are commensurate with isis and Al Qaeda and yet we have demonstrators in the streets who are chanting in favor of them. We have to make a distinction. It reminds me what i saw at the dnc. A confluence of different groups with different agenda. Some are people in sympathy with the palestinian cause. People with roots in that part of the world but you also have a lot of joiners. A lot of completely who separate agendas, where is the funding coming from. Overseas entities . They pile on. What they want a disruption. They want chaos. People think it descended into chaos. It didnt descend there. Its the motive. They want the disruption. They hate america. One of the things they want at the end of the day are lawsuits to fund them. They get some arrests, everybody sues, new York City settles and the whole cycle continues. Dana Bari Weiss was on the Air Yesterday and we asked her what can other people do . This is what see said. Anyone watching this, Stand Up for the values that have made america the exception to the rule. Stand up for the values of equality under the law, blind justice, stand against any ideology that pits us against each other. The judges people not based on their Character Or Deed but judges them based on the circumstances of their birth. Stand up for the things that make america america. Dana one of the things we noticed last night is you had people some of the protestors chasing jewish people in the streets of new York City. What does the nypd, what can they do, if anything . You see the immediate reaction. They give them a disorderly conduct summons but get them off the set. Nobody is taking the kind of hit you would expect and like to see. You would like to see hate crime charges. Protestor who got hit, a Proisrael Protestor out there. There are police right on the scene and it is very clear, very clear. I notice from sourcing the police have been told all of these are unpermitted protests. Theyve been told contain it and isolate it but let it happen. If you really wanted to stop it, you have the look at what is founding it. The ring leaders and you have to look at people who are very clearly have as an objective take over the city and create chaos. The left loves root causes, right . Root causes is the issue here. Israel at the end of the day are too successful and too America Adjacent and they just cant abide it. Bill the pattern has been to hit the streets every day for the month leading up to the election.

Petersburg and still climbing out of The Hole that Hurricane Helene and tropical Storm Debbie put her family in. Her trust is fema hits a new low. You just moved to florida from North Carolina in june and already it must be battered. Tell us about your story. Yeah, we moved in june. We flooded with debbie, ran into issues with our claim with fema, and came out almost completely outofpocket for the damages. And then we were hit with helene. We had four feet of water in our house. Got as far as the remediatiOn And had to evacuate this time again for milton. Dana you said things didnt work out well for you with fema. Do you fear that could happen again . Yeah, i think thats everyones fear. It takes time and People Cant always afford to come outofpocket to keep progress moving to rebuild their lives and there is a general lack of resources after these storms whether the number of adjusters going out to see those affected or just supplemental support outside of whatever insurance you have. Dana you moved to florida for work. And now you evacuated back to North Carolina to weather milton. Tell me about your own private insurance situation. In florida its very expensive. It is. And the area that we bought, the only option that we had for Flood Insurance was nfip. It is very expensive. The coverage is capped at 250,000 for the structure. So with milton, for example. If our damage exceeds 50 , thats all well see and forced to rebuild and come outofpocket for the difference. Dana one huge problem is the debris left over from last Weeks Hurricane and you have concerns about what milton could do with all of that. Yeah, absolutely. You drive through the neighborhood and peoples lives were reduced to the piles outside of their house and i heard from a neighbor that hadnt evacuated yet. They started picking it up yesterday. They wont get it all cleared because again 90 of the homes in our neighborhood were affected by damage from helene. Dana you said it is not the local or federal government helping us right now. It is our neighbors. Tell us about that. Yeah, absolutely. After the storm, it wasnt state or local representatives or fema that showed up to provide us support. It was our neighbors that were volunteering to help people rip out Drywall And Move debris out of their homes and neighbors cooking meals and catering in food. Friends and family sending us supplies and even financial support so we can just keep moving forward. Dana are you able to work remotely at this point for your company . Im fortunate. My company is very supportive throughout all of this. They gave me Breathing Room and gave me time off just to recover from helene. I will be able to work remote. But im more fortunate than others in that regard. There are plenty of people trying to balance their lives while recovering. Dana you seem to me like somebody so grounded. And obviously grateful for what you have but determined to figure out a way to get through and im sure when you say neighbors have helped you, i have No Doubt that you will return the favor indeed whenever thats needed. Danielle jenson, thank you for being here today. Thank you, take care. Bill well be watching that story and watching this story. Violent threats targeting Supreme Court justices and their families.
