kevin is live in d.c. >> president biden is in a far more favorable light. in the latest fox survey, somehow this continues to manage a 40% approval rating. give or take 3 or 3 percentage points. but that still means his disapproval numbers are not very good. they're hovering around 660. obviously, that's nothing to write home about. meantime i'm 78% of voters believe the economy is in poor or fair condition, while now over the war in israel. but your thoughts on the numbers overall? i think, you know, there's probably no disputing that people think democrats handle those issues better. the problem is that most voters don't vote based on those issues. i mean, abortion arguably has driven some suburban women towards, you know, voting for republican for democrats when they might otherwise vote for republicans. but i don't think there's many single issue voters on transgenderism, on climate change. i mean, those rank very low when you compare it to concerns about the economy, concerns about crime. so the fact is that republicans are leading on all the issues that are driving voters to the polls that are motivating their votes . and that's why democrats, i think, are really worried about biden's viability right now. yeah, i mean, abortion has been a big issue for them. so that's that's a plus in that column. going back to that number, the anti semitism there, this is the wall street journal writes the following. joe biden faces a deep state revolt, jack. president biden has been learning lately what life is like for a republican presidents part of the deep state, to borrow a phrase, are revolting in opposition to his support for israel against the hamas terrorist responsible for the october 7th massacre. i mean, anti semitism. you look at what's happening across the country and you can see the democrats really are having a tough time with this. yeah, they really are. and i mean, that is one of the most ridiculous letters i've ever seen. i served five different cabinet secretaries. and to administrations. my sister christine is a longtime career official. you just don't do that. a combination of political appointees and career officials anonymously putting their non names on a non on an on a letter and saying that they oppose this. i mean, it is a profile not encouraged to do something like that. but what does it say about those people that they have a problem with this administration and basically siding with israel and against anti semitism? it's shocking. and for clarity, you were talking about the letter signed by 400 biden administration officials, as you know, against his policy in the middle east. lastly the secretary of state said this this to his staff message, quote, we are listening. what you share is informing our policy and our messages. i know that for many of you, the suffering caused by this crisis is taking a profound personal toll. again, talking about that letter signed by 400. but he seems to be intimating here, sarah, that we support israel. but boy, we're listening to other ideas. yeah, i think biden has always engaged in foreign policy through the lens of how it plays domestically with his base. right. i mean, i think that's informed the way he's approached ukraine. the way that he's been soft on china and certainly the way that he's sort of waffling on his support for israel. i think first and foremost, rather than us interests, biden is concerned about the way liberals are going to perceive his foreign policy. and i think you're starting to see that creep into the way that he's approaching israel. it's a really a lose lose situation for biden right now. and sometimes it's more than creeping. it is at a very fast pace. i got to go, jack. i wish i could take it. sarah, jack, thank you both. meantime, in san francisco, the apec conference is about to wrap up, but the protests appear to be ramping up dozens of pro-palestinian protesters arrested tonight after they shut down the san francisco bay bridge. the chief correspondent, jonathan hunt, is live in san francisco with more on the shutdown. jonathan, good evening. good evening to you, tracy. it was not the biggest protest that we have seen this week, but it was certainly the most disrupt captive dozens of pro-palestine protesters driving several vehicles onto the bay bridge, the most heavily trafficked during the rush hour here in san francisco. then stopping those vehicles, completely blocking traffic in one direction when they actually threw the keys from some of those vehicles into the bay itself. so the police have ultimately had to get tow trucks in to move those vehicles. they eventually arrested something like 50 of those protesters. others also today, we saw a similar pro-palestinian protest in boston that one to also shut down a key bridge there in boston for a second nificant amount of time as pro-palestinian groups gathered right across the country. and of course, last night in d.c. we saw those violent clashes between pro-palestinian protesters and police outside the dnc headquarters. listen to this. now, both sides in that the protesters and the police blame each other for the violence. police officers said that the protesters did not heed their commands to unblock the doorways of the dnc headquarters. protesters said, of course, they were simply exercising their first amendment rights. but what worries police in these situations trace, is that these protests could turn into something even more violent. and there was a worrying sign of that today when a group called within our lifetime posted a map of manhattan on social media on which they identified sites that they said were, quote, tied to the genocide in gaza. and that map was under the headline globalize the intifada. among the sites it identified were the headquarters of several media companies, including fox, nbc and the new york times and facebook's parent company, meta. now that post has since been taken down trace, but it is clearly a disturbing sign given that that would seem to have implied that those media headquarters and other companies were targets. this trace yeah. and the damage may already have been done. jonathan, thank you. here in southern california, a pro-palestinian college professor was finally arrested tonight after the death of a 69 year old jewish protester nearly two weeks ago. christina coleman is live with the breaking information on this. christina, good evening. hi. good evening. yeah, a tragic loss, very disturbing. a college professor was arrested for the death of a jewish protester. the 50 year old suspect was charged with two felonies and voluntary manslaughter and battery causing serious bodily injury. authority say the victim. 69 year old paul kessler, who was part of a pro-israel group, died after falling backward during a conference with the suspect. a pro-police supporter at a free palestine rally on november 5th in thousand oaks, a suburb just northwest of l.a. some of the witnesses were pro-palestine, while others were pro-israel. during the investigation at the scene, deputies determined that the altercation with mr. kessler he fell backward and struck his head on the ground. an arrest was not immediately made in this case. it's unclear what evidence the ventura county da's office reviewed to proceed with charges as the local sheriff's office and the da is scheduled to hold a joint news conference on this arrest tomorrow as the community mourns the loss of kessler. but alas, alas, in the last 30 days, we have seen the most shocking rise in anti-semitism and in anti-semitic incidences ever recorded. there must be justice for the murder of paul kessler. and there must be justice. as for those that are being held hostage right now for the people of israel who are being shelled right now in palestine, and as for some of the anti-israel protests sweeping across the country, the free press is reporting that china propaganda millionaire neville roy singham and his wife have donated over $20.4 million dollars since 2017 to a new york city based group that is organized. some of these rallies. singham and his wife denied ties to china despite media reports and the chairman of the house select committee on the ccp, representative mike gallagher, told the free press that chinese media interests are sowing discord in the us in an attempt to divide and weaken america. trace christina, thank you. let's bring in jill simone and director of outreach at prager u. kids and noah pollack from the washington free beacon. great to have you both on set with me. larry summers said this, jill, larry summers, of course, the former treasury secretary who went to harvard, he wrote an op editor in the washington post says, quote, why are universities confused about anti semitism? going on to say, too often those most directly charged with confronting prejudice officer of diversity, equity and inclusion have failed to stand with israel and jewish students confronting anti-semitism. the oldest prejudice of them all. some university die officials have themselves taken positions that are widely viewed as anti-semitic. i mean, he's spot on in this observation, jill. right. and i wish i could say that i am surprised at how many dei consultants and experts and proponents are anti-israel, are anti-semitic. i wish i could say i'm surprised that they are, but i'm not, because at prager u and especially prager u kids, we have been shouting about the dangers of dei for years, and we're seeing it being lived out in real time at universal sees how divisive it is, how genuinely racist it is, and how damaging and destructive and dangerous it is for all of us. and yet, noah, you have columbia university facing protest because they suspended two pro-palestinian groups, right? yeah. but they got the lightest slap on the wrist. they got suspended for the rest of the semester, which is over in three weeks. these these kids are total cry bullies. this is the classic thing we see throughout all these protests is they attack and attack and attack. they're out in campus screaming in the streets for intifada, for murder, supporting hamas. and the moment one little thing happens to them where they get a little bit of pushback, they cry and they all go out and protest that they got any sort of discipline at all when they should actually all be expelled. yeah, they're saying, oh, they're violating our free speech rights and, you know, your free speech rights do not include the death saying calling for the death of others. that's overboard. the new york post writes the following here campus anti-semitism shows it's time to track the foreign cash flowing into universities. since 1986, us universities have received at least 11 billion from arab states, not to mention billions more from china. and they have largely hidden this funding from the public, at least 200 american colleges and universities illegally withheld information on approximately 13 billion in undisclosed contributions from foreign regimes, many of which are anti-semitic or authoritarian. it's always the money, jill, you just got to follow the trail and guess where it leads, right? guess where it leads to destruction and danger again. and i do want to point out, you mentioned china on tiktok today was trending with gen zers, defending osama bin laden. oh, we're going to talk a lot about that coming up in the next block. but yeah, i get your i totally get your that's where we're at. yeah. i mean, terrifying and that is where we're at. and you think and we'll talk. we're going to give you statistics. it's a great tease. thank you, joe, for that because it is it is really baffling. finally, the arrest and the death of 69 year old paul kessler, the southern california man who was allegedly struck with a megaphone at a rally almost two weeks ago. the suspect is loay abdel fattah al-naji. you know, it took a while before they made this arrest and they keep saying, oh, we're possibly looking as a hate crime. yeah. i mean, this guy was on social media posting pro-hamas posts on on on social media. the other thing that's remarkable here is that throughout this whole month, you see over and over again that the pro-palestinian protests tend to be violent. they tend to be intimidating. they tend like we saw at the bay bridge and these other places. they tend to be politely. you could call it politely civil disobedience. the pro-israel protests are not there is just a giant pro-israel protest in dc. you had american flags. you had patriotic sentiments, and that tells you a lot about the nature of this conflict. yeah i think it's a fair assessment. noah jill, thank you both. now to israel's war with hamas, israel says it recovered a laptop inside a gaza hospital. we're talking about al-shifa used as a staging area by the hamas terrorists that contains some very information. an idf forces also recovered the body of one hostage. jeff paul is live for us in tel aviv with the new information on this. jeff. yeah, trace. and there has been a lot of talk about a possible hostage deal in the works. but as we've seen in the past, that is often contingent about what is happening exactly right here on the ground. we're still seeing rockets being fired from gaza into israel. israel is continuing with its military operation in and around northern gaza. so those tense negotiations are often impacted by each hour of this ongoing war. and we got an example of that earlier this evening, some information that the idf put out about a body that their soldiers found that had been abducted, a person who had been abducted back on october seventh, 65 year old yehudit weiss was discovered in a structure the idf says was adjacent to al-shifa hospital. that is where for a second day, israeli forces searched the vast hospital complex. now, through the lens of the idf, we've seen images of the guns, military equipment and now the entrance to a tunnel just outside of that very hospital. they even say they found a laptop with photos and videos of hostages. israeli forces say that alone is evidence that hamas was operating within the hospital complex, but hamas calls it a weak story. that isn't true. the hospital staff says every minute israeli forces put the hospital, quote, under occupation, the chance is of more patients dying only increases. the idf says they're at war with hamas, not civilians. and israeli defense minister yoav galant adding they remain focused on rooting out hamas from northern gaza in a precise manner. the more we deepen this operation, increase the pressure on hamas and erode more headquarters, damage more tunnels and eliminate more operatives and bring down more heads of organization, the greater the chance of returning our hostages. because this enemy only understands the power. and we explain to him very well what power is now inside gaza, the humanitarian crisis. according to aid workers, there is only deepening telephone and internet service has been reportedly cut off. food is lacking very, very little clean water, very little fuel. and the un says that is only making the situation even more devastating for the people who call that area home. trey. indeed, jeff, stay safe. thank you. let's bring in former pentagon official and retired navy captain brant sadler, former state department senior adviser, christian white. and gentlemen, thank you both very much. appreciate this. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu said this on cbs tonight. watch i said that we would have a temporary cease fire only if we have our hostages back and haven't changed. what i said sounds brant to me like the cease fire is very much in play. oh, if that question is for me, yes, i would say the conditions still remain the same. when the hostages are relieved or released back to israel. and also american hostages. well, then then a cease fire can be discussed. but again, the number one priority and why there is this war is the destruction of hamas. and that needs to stay top foremost. yeah. the jerusalem post writes the following here. idf's next steps in gaza hostage deal or southern offensive, whether israel agrees to a deal or not, which hamas has been desperate for even the possibility of being close to a deal may currently be slowing. the push into southern gaza. so just consider doing this deal could benefit hamas. christian yeah, well, it could and it will. and i don't think the israelis are going to go for it because they know hamas is obviously not negotiating a good faith and hamas is not going to turn over any live hostages unless someone has a gun pointed at their head and is willing to pull the trigger. the fastest, most humane way to end a war is to do so rapidly with overwhelming force. so, you know, this is a real problem. i think the biden administration is leaning on the israelis to go slow to fall for these hamas pals minion tricks. and in reality, what needs to happen is a rapid move to the south and a rapid consolidation of control over all of gaza. yeah, i got about 30s for both of you. one more question. they found a lot of evidence in this al-shifa hospital, brant and it's very compelling and very. everything from arabic published military wing booklets, maps, you name it, maps getting out of there. what do you think about that? well, i don't think it's going to be enough to convince those people that you see on the streets and protesting in the united states , let alone around the world. but the big challenge will be, you know, will the palestinians have a better life six months when the fighting stops under something other than hamas? and that will be the real litmus test for a lasting and enduring peace that the israelis can, quite frankly live with. yeah, if 30s christian, you know, this is a failure of president biden. yes. he went to israel and he put his arm around prime minister netanyahu, but he's been equivocating morally here, trying to have it both ways, saying we're with israel, but also saying that israel needs to fight a humane war and comply with the law of wars, which they do. we need to be unequivocal that israel needs to root out these people. these people want to kill us as much as they want to kill israelis. yeah. christian brant, thank you. coming up, a letter written by osama bin laden is now viral on tiktok. and despite killing some 3000 americans, many young americans somehow sympathize with bin laden. and later, in
