Sandra for the second straight day, hundreds of devices exploding across lebanon and what appears to be a major attack against members of iranbacked hezbollah appeared today we are hearing reports that handheld radios are detonating just south of beirut. Thats where we find ourselves at the top of the new our here. Hello e and welcome Everyone Frm Sandra Smith in new york. John tried to have you back, im John Roberts in washington, this is americas reports. Israel is behind the simultaneous explosions of pagers that killed 12 people and injured nearly 3,000. Sandra the embassy in Beirut Morning americans in the country to be on high alert and maintain a low profile. Lets get right to it with Nate Foy live on the ground in Tel Aviv for us at this hour, 8 00, there, nate. Has israel said anything about these explosions . Not directly, sandra, but while visiting the countries north, Defense Minister Yoav gallant said minutes ago we are entering the new phase of this war. This as israel moves some more valuable resources to its northern border. Meanwhile, a Hezbollah Official or poorly tells reuters that it holds israel accountable for this second round of explosions that happened all across lebanon today, south of beirut, including at funerals for hezbollah fighters who were killed in yesterdays explosions, and we have new video where you can hear an explosion in the background at one of those funerals, take a look. [indistinct shouting] so you just heard it right there, sandra, the exposure and happened offcamera in the middle of a crowded funeral, according to Lebanons Health Ministry at least nine people have been killed and 300 injured in this newest round of explosions. Today it is reportedly handheld radios exploding, yesterday it was pagers. According to reuters, hezbollah purchased the radios about five months ago. Thats about the same time that they got the pagers that exploded yesterday. You see smoke right there coming from a Cell Phone Shop south of beirut. Thats not far from where this next video was taken at a Grocery Store Yesterday where you see one man get badly injured. These explosions happen at several locations across lebanon and syria. A top u. S. Official confirms of Fox News that israel was behind this. Yesterdays explosions. We have yet to confirm independently that israel is behind todays Explosions Pure Now in the past two days come if you add it all up, at least 21 people have been killed. Over 3300 people injured from exploding Communication Devices. Hezbollah says its leader, hassan nestor a la, survived yesterdays attack. He is expected to make a Speech Tomorrow at 10 00 a. M. Eastern time, so a lot of people will be watching that. Meanwhile, hamas just in the past few minutes sandra is out with a new statement condemning what it calls israeli aggression against the lebanese people, and this happens as u. S. Secretary of state Antony Blinken tries to revive ceasefire talks in egypt come of course those talks between israel and hamas and with this increased tension with hezbollah there are increased fears here in israel of a broader regional conflict appeared we will send it Back To You. Sandra Nate Foy with the breaking news in Tel Aviv for us, Thank You, nate. John . John something out of a mission impossible plot but if you presented that to producerse would believe that. It is a shame a couple of young children have gotten caught up in this but from a psychological warfare aspect, i mean, it really is an incredible move on the part of israel because as Senator Tom Cotton was pointing out if you are a hezbollah operative, you are afraid to turn on the tv come afraid to use your toaster. We will be talking with Reserve Lieutenant Colonel of the idf Coming Up next. She knows an awful lot about the relationship between israel and hezbollah. But this past her and see her thoughts. Sandra looking forward to that, john. All right, now this. I think it is the rhetoric. Some of the things that are being said shouldnt be said. They continue to say he is a threat to democracy for no reason whatsoever. I think the political rhetoric is at an alltime high right now and none of that talk is necessary. Going to destroy the country and going to ruin democracy. I think it is just the language that is put out there. Weve gotten so toxic in america that we started this war between ourselves. Weve forgotten to love Each Other. John supporters of former President Trump calling out rhetoric from the other side following an apparent second attempt on the former president s life peered meanwhile, we are learning the Secret Service will delay the release of an internal report probing the first Assassination Attempt against Donald Trump. California democratic Congressman Ro Khanna will join us in just moments but first we go to Dana Murray Mcdaniel live in west palm beach, florida, with the latest for us on what happened on sunday. Hey, john, we are piecing together rouths past. Innards worked with him in ukraine calling him dangerous and violent. Did he ever talk about assassinations . All the time. He developed plans. He talked about biden and trump, but i cant remember, its been over two years since i heard those conversations be it i cant remember exactly what he said but he did speak frequently about harming world leaders. We also spoke with a retired Police Officer in greensboro who had 100 runins with him. He said the trouble began with traffic violations, but it escalated over time to hit and runs, thefts of cars and equipment. You can see his Mug Shots over the years they are your screen. All my interactions with him, he liked to run his mouth and play the victim keep. You know, he felt the city was always against him and he would file complaints against myself and other officers, feeling that we were picking on him. In 2002, routh became a felon after barricading himself inside a north Carolina Business with a fully automatic rifle. He was charged with possession of a weapon of mass destruction. The fbi continues their investigation, rating rouths home in hawaii just yesterday. Officials say they are interviewing the suspects friends, family, neighbors, coworkers and the state of florida will start its own investigation. Governor Ron Desantis says he doesnt trust the feds and will pursue life in prison Charges Beard and the former president did welcome Martin County officers to his home in maralago, which is now set att security level, the same level as it was when he was a sitting president. John . John thats pretty remarkable p or 27 years of mug shot, talk about a rogues gallery. Dana Marie Mcnichol for us, Thank You. Now this. Was raised as a middleclass kid. I grew up a middleclass kid. I drop a middleclass kid appeared i believe any ambition, the aspirations, the dreams of the american people. We have ambitions and aspirations and dreams. The ambition, the aspiration, the dream. I started my career as a prosecutor. I was a Career Prosecutor for most of my career appeared having a background as a prosecutor. Sandra those have been some of harris most repeated lines on the campaign trail. Will they win over any undecided voters . It is a huge question right now. Democratic california condors harris Campaign Sarah get ro khanna. The one that kills me is on the economy. She grew up middleclass kid. How does that tell voters how shes going to bring down skyhigh prices . Welcome to you, congressman. She has to talk about her biography because people dont know her, but she also has concrete plans. One is to raise the we living wage, put more money in the pockets of paycheck to Paycheck And Increase productivity so it will not be inflationary, second is to pay for competition among Food Processing companies. Third is to put more money in the pockets of seniors who are struggling with expanding social security. She has a lot of concrete policies to help voters who are struggling. Sandra okay, there is so much to dig into there. I will choose one. How does she increase competition to bring down prices . What has she told voters she is going to do and how she is going to do that . There are four Food Processing companies that have 60 of Market Share and many of them arent providing the same deals to local Grocery Stores, to local retailers. We just need to make sure there is very competition among Food Processing companies so that local Grocery Stores are getting the products they need so that prices are competitive in a marketplace. Sandra okay, is there any evidence that there is not fair competition . Because that would be illegal activity, just to be clear. Well i think there is evidence that there is a concentration in that there needs to be antitrust Enforcement And Senator j. D. Vance has praised has been working sandra if thats been happening it didnt happen overnight and she has been Vice President for almost four years now. We put in the greenroom as we always do request to show where prices are today from when Biden And Harris took office and congressman, it is quite remarkable to see that Gas Prices are up 34 under this Presidency And Vice presidency peered energy up 32 . Housing prices, that is Rent And Home prices come up 23 . Auto insurance up 56 . Everybody is talking about that. And Food Prices are up 22 . Those are your Grocery Bills that have gone up significantly. Yet when she is asked Point Blank in the most recent interview to bring prices down, she answered with this. I will start with this. I grew up in middleclass kid peered my mother raised my sister and me. She worked very hard. She was able to finally save up enough money to buy her first house and i was a teenager. I grew up in a community of hardworking people pure and you know, Construction Workers and nurses and teachers. I try to explain to some people who may not have had the same experience, you know, a lot of people will relate to this, i grew up in a neighborhood with folks who are very proud of their lawn. You know . And i was raised to believe and to know that all people deserve dignity. And that we as americans have a beautiful character. You know, we have ambitions and aspirations and dreams, but not everyone necessarily has access to the resources that can help them fuel those dreams and ambitions. Sandra you tell me what that means, but access to resources for the most part what we have heard from her economic policies they are a pitch to voters on Price Controls and new Government Spending. That Government Spending has quite clearly got us to this inflationary state. Your thoughts . She has certainly not for price control, she is for free market, but sandra, the american people know that the cause of inflation in the united states and Around The World was the global pandemic that cut Supply Chains. We didnt have enough industry here. America has the fastest and most dramatic lowering of inflation of any western democracy. And inflation has gone down when President Biden started around 7 to now 2. 9 . Now the question is do we need to do more . Absolutely. And what Vice President harris is saying is im going to put more money in the pockets of Working Families by increasing wages and im going to make sure there is fair competition so that prices continue to go down. Sandra just to be clear, inflation was 1. 4 when they took office. Following the pandemic peered ran up to more than 9 and still double that today peered finally, want to ask you about this rhetoric and the conversation is happening right now about what may have led to another Assassination Attempt against former president Donald Trump, and there are both sides of the aisle now who are saying we have to tamp this down. This is Senators Blumenthal and paul. Basically going after the united states Secret Service. What is go happening . Listen. I am reaching the point of total outrage. Its tantamount to stonewalling, in many respects. The department of Homeland Security has to be more forthcoming. The first case is full of dozens of errors, most of them human errors. The Secret Service has accepted her Spots Ability yet. Sandra youve got the questions over the Secret Service and this ongoing rhetoric that when the White House is asked about it, doubles down on using the Word Threat to describe the former president. Do you agree with that . Well, first of all, sandra, i wrote a Washington Post Oped saying the Secret Service failures were unacceptable. President trump deserves the same protection as President Biden. That we need to get them the resources to expand the perimeter. And that there are a lot of unanswered questions. How did the person, suspect know about the president s schedule . Why was the person allowed to get to maralago . And that needs to be bipartisan. We need to all be ensuring the safety of President Trump and Vice President harris. Secondly on the conversation, look, i come on Fox News a lot. One of the reasons i do it is we often have a civil exchange. Lets focus On The Issues come on the policies. Who has a better vision for bringing manufacturing back . Who has a better vision for lowering prices . Who has a better vision on sensible Immigration Policy . Instead of the namecalling, lets learn how to talk to Each Other and what lincoln called the bonds of affection in this country and we all have a responsibility to that, and i hope more people will come on fox and have these kind of conversations to try to lower the temperature. Sandra but do you think it is dangerous for the White House to continue calling the former president a threat . After yet another Assassination Attempt . Is that a good idea . My criticism i can just speak for myself, sandra. I have always criticized President Trump on policies. On how i think that he is wrong on the economy, wrong on his solutions on immigration. I wish we could focus on that. I think we can win this campaign focusing on who has the better vision. I dont like namecalling on any side, and that is the ideal i have tried to set and hold myself to peered. Sandra fairs to say it sounds like you are slitting with the White House on that. Congressman, we appreciate you always do come on and glad to have you here today. Thank you. Appreciate it. Musical needs ago. I intend to create an opportunity economy. Developing and creating an opportunity economy. What i imagine and believe at a Call And Opportunity economy. John Vice President harris touting her economic plan as speculation swirled over a highly anticipated Rate Cut from the Federal Reserve that should be announced less than an hour from now. Robert Wolf And Steve moore on the political implications of all of this Coming Up next. Sandra okay, plus a Potential Strike could leave a lump of coal in many americans christmas stockings. Live from New Jersey come i cant believe we are talking about christmas already but this when we start to think about these things at a strike could be looming. It sure is, and i just Cant Help but think about all of the goods that are sitting in the hundreds of containers just behind me. A strike across container ports and along the u. S. East coast and the Gulf Coast would impact goods just like these, i mean, consumers would not get them on time. What will President Biden do or not do to stop that strike . We are getting into it Coming Up. T of the picture. With skyrizi, feel significant Symptom Relief at 4 weeks. Many people were in remission at 12 weeks, 1 year, and even at 2 years.
