israeli forces say two israeli hostages have been released and more are expected to be handed over soon. it comes after renewed violence in gaza and jerusalem in the last 24 hours. will this affect the chances of extending the truce deal beyond today? global reaction to the death of former secretary of state henry kissinger at 100. and the u.s.-mexico border, a record number of migrants are dying at the el paso sector. we're going to speak with a journalist who reports it is so bad, residents are oftentimes stumbling over bodies in the desert and even in the towns. and new this morning, republican congressman george santos has a warning to his colleagues if they vote to expel him from congress. >> that is going to be the undoing of a lot of members of this body because this will haunt them in the future. and we begin this hour with more on the breaking news in the israel-hamas war. at this moment, we are awaiting the release of more hostages just about an hour after two israeli hostages were transferred to the red cross, according to the israeli military. this happening on what is now the seventh day of truce between israel and hamas, after late night agreement was reached. hamas also providing a list of palestinian prisoners that will be released today. right now, diplomatic efforts to extend the pause continue. today secretary of state antony blinken was back in the west bank where he met with the palestinian authority president mahmoud abbas. earlier, blinken met with israeli prime minister netanyahu on his fourth trip to the middle east since the october 7th attack. meanwhile, on wednesday, israeli american citizen liat benin was released along with 13 others, becoming the second american released during the truce. her father addressed her condition on "morning joe." >> i'm elated to report that her physical condition appears to be pretty good. considering the ordeal she went through. >> so far 97 hostages and 210 palestinian prisoners have been set free since the truce went into effect last friday. but there are growing concerns about violence in the west bank and in jerusalem today, hamas claimed responsibility for a shooting attack in jerusalem that killed at least three people. it comes a day after the palestinian health ministry said two young boys were killed by israeli forces in the west bank. joining us now is nbc's richard engel, in jerusalem this morning. richard, what more do we know about the hostages being released today, and also this attack in jerusalem? >> reporter: so, it is good to talk to you, jose. before we start, you might hear the call to prayer which is happening right now in this city. and it was here in jerusalem just on the outskirts of the city, a bus stop, where according to local police two palestinians got out of a vehicle and opened fire on a crowd. they according to hamas were members of the hamas military wing. they killed three people, three israelis, and injured several others, three of them quite seriously. it does not seem to have disrailed this hostage for palestinian prisoner swap. a short while ago, two more israelis were released by hamas. they were handed over to the red cross. it is unclear why just two. generally these hostage swaps ha taken place where all of them or most of them are released at the same time. these two women, however, were handed over to the red cross. israel has confirmed that, but we're still waiting confirmation or waiting word that more could be released today, potentially eight more or more than that. so, despite that attack earlier in jerusalem, this process very tenuous, very delicate process is still going ahead. >> and meanwhile, you have been speaking with family members of hostages. what are you learning from them? >> reporter: so, every day now since this crisis began, practically, we have been speaking to families of hostages, to the people in gaza, we have been speaking to people in the west bank, and you really get different realities on who you speak to. this is a small country, but when you drive 100 miles, it is like you're traveling to a different continent. when we speak to the people in gaza, it is -- they describe being under attack, feel powerless, hopeless, no food, no water, no power or very little of it in many cases. and they're using this time of the truce to try and rebuild their lives, to connect with relatives. but with this lingering fear that at any moment the israeli ground campaign could intensify once again and the air strikes could begin. when you speak to the families of the hostages, they are living in a kind of suspended reality. since the october 7th attacks, the families of the hostages haven't gone back to work, haven't gone on with their lives, many of them are finding shelter in solidarity, finding support in solidarity, with other families that are in similar situations. some of these hostage families are actually now living together. there is a small tented camp in jerusalem. i went inside of it, and there, a few dozen of the hostage families are sleeping together, next to each other, for the sole reason that if they have a question, if they have a need of support, they have somebody else quite next -- literally next to them in uncomfortable conditions, just tents, no heat, but they would rather be out in the open, sleeping rough than to be in their homes because it feels better. and when you speak to the families, you also hear how complex it is because for now, hamas mostly released some young men and that happened yesterday with the release two of 18-year-old men. but, hamas generally just has been releasing women and children. so each time there is a release, there are people being left behind because when hamas moved into these kibbutzes on october 7th, they grabbed everyone. they grabbed babies, they grabbed caregivers, they grabbed the elderly and now they have been releasing them. when you're a hostage, and the hostages generally have been kept together, family units kept together, we're told, so there is this traumatic separation when word is finally delivered to the hostages that some of them are going back to their families and others are not, and we spoke to one family, the horan family, six members of their family were released. and that's an enormous release, but one, the father of the children, is still a hostage. four of them were killed. and one of that -- one of the people killed was a caregiver because one of the people who was killed was disabled. so they killed this disabled man, other relatives of his, and the caregiver who was almost like a family. and i asked this relative, dealing with ten members of their family or their chosen family with the caregiver, how they're coping with this. waiting every day for word, will this process continue or will it not. and i asked what was that like. >> it has been a nightmare. it has been hell on earth, basically. because, you know, imagine that one day just living your life, having a happy large family and one day in a couple of hours it is completely shattered. >> reporter: so now we are still waiting to see if this cease-fire will be extended. it was talk yesterday it was going to be extended two days, so today and tomorrow. this morning israel only would confirm that it was extended through today. but if more hostages are released like the two women who were released a short while ago, then it is possible, i would say likely that we could get another extension. but this is so tenuous, so difficult, that until the hostages are out, and until we know that there is an extension, we are all just waiting and seeing. >> richard engel in jerusalem, thank you very much, my friend. really appreciate it. here at home, one of the most powerful diplomats in american history has died. former secretary of state henry kissinger died yesterday at 100 years old. an influential figure, he was also controversial. nbc's lester holt takes a look at henry kissinger's life and legacy. >> thank you. nice to see you all. >> reporter: he was brilliant, ambitious, controversial, and one of the most influential secretaries of state in american history. >> i think we made progress. >> reporter: henry kissinger served richard nixon, gerald ford and consulted by presidents of both parties on international issues throughout his life. >> henry kissinger has been a friend of mine. >> reporter: nixon made him a national figure, and together they reimagined u.s. foreign policy. detente with the soviet union, relations with china, shuttle diplomacy in the middle east. kissinger helped shape nixon's policy in vietnam, and negotiated an end to the war, famously declaring success prematurely, just days before the 1972 election. >> we believe that peace is at hand. >> reporter: he was awarded the nobel peace prize. >> nothing that has happened to me in public life has moved me more than this award. >> reporter: though his co-recipient, north vietnam's le duck to declined the honor. he was a master of pragmatic big picture diplomacy, but had his critics who described him as manipulative and insecure. some called him a war criminal, for his role in bombing cambodia, and widening the war in vietnam. born in germany in 1923, kissinger's jewish family fled to america as hitler rose to power. he became a u.s. citizen, served in world war ii, and earned a ph.d. at harvard, where he became a professor. he caught the eye of richard nixon who made him national security adviser. then secretary of state. the only person ever to hold both jobs simultaneously. >> there is no country in the world where it is conceivable that a man of my origins would be standing here next to the president of the united states. [ applause ] >> reporter: but their relationship was complicated. and white house tapes reveal that kissinger sometimes enabled the worst in nixon. >> it was a very curious relationship because we were not personally very close. >> reporter: the night before he resigned in disgrace, nixon asked kissinger to kneel and pray with him. >> and, of course it was a crushing event, but i think of that evening as an experience with dignity and very moving. >> reporter: kissinger was no faceless bureaucrat. he was a world renowned celebrity. >> i love you. >> reporter: and he loved the spotlight. he was even something of a pop culture icon. after leaving government, he opened his own consulting firm, remaining active and sought after for decades. at 95, eulogizing john mccain's life, kissinger sounded a wistful note about his own. >> like most people of my age, i feel a longing for what is lost and cannot be restored. >> reporter: henry kissinger was a man of great accomplishment, and controversy. but as he once told nbc's barbara walters, he had no regrets. >> if i had to do it over again, i would do it again, substantially the same way, maybe one reason why i'm at peace with myself. >> reporter: lester holt, nbc news, new york. >> and our thanks to lester for that report. up next, we'll get an update on our breaking news. hamas releases more israeli hostages to the international committee of the red cross. we'll talk to a top official with the organization about what is happening on the ground. plus, another breaking story, a gag order against former president donald trump has been reinstated. we'll bring you the details in just 60 seconds. you're watching "jose diaz-balart reports" on msnbc. c. you're watching "jose diaz-balart reports" on msnbc. ? [sfx: video game] emergen-c crystals. the subway series is getting an upgrade. the new #33. the teriyaki blitz. with double cheese and teriyaki-marinated meat. it's like a perfect steak spiral in the double cheese coverage. if you say so, peyton. who knew the subway series could get even better? what happened? well, when you opened up the chewy box, you went a bit... ...bonkers. that's one word for it. i guess i blacked out. this is the best squeaky toy ever. probably shouldn't. but we did get you a few more gifts. honey. ooh, there's more. chewy's prices were so great. you don't need to explain yourself, linda. keep on saving. pet's aren't just pets. they're more. well, i hope i got a leaf blower this year. you got a turtleneck. unwrap the excitement with deals up to 40% off at chewy. 15 past the hour. just in the last hour, the israeli government released the names two of israelis released from captivity in gazatoday. they are 21-year-old mia schem and 40-year-old amitt soussana. they have been transferred to the red cross and are now on their way to israel. joining us now is patrick hamilton, the head of delegation for the u.s. and canada region at the international committee of the red cross. thank you, patrick, for being with us this morning. do you have any information about the new transfers today? >> thanks, jose. great to be with you. i'm afraid at this stage we have been unable to confirm with our colleagues this news today. but hope to be able to do so shortly. but, of course, if this is indeed the case and it builds on the 101 hostages that we have been able to facilitate the release of thus far, since october 7th, over the last seven days of cease-fire, so, of course here we very much have our fingers crossed this is indeed the case and we are able to confirm this. >> what can you tell us what is the role of the icrc in the transfer of hostages and palestinian prisoners? >> so the international community of the red cross has a mandate, provided to it, within the geneva conventions. the laws of armed conflict. and our role is to act to protect the victims of conflict and frequently to be called on as a neutral humanitarian intermediary to carry out these kind of humanitarian acts. basically the sides that are fighting the conflict concerned arrive at a agreement between them that they would like to release hostages or detainees, prisoners, and they then need an actor that can carry that out, that can facilitate that and they then both reach out to us as the icrc and we look to enable that and to facilitate it. so we look to ensure that we have the security guarantees from the different sides to enable our vehicles, our staff, as well as hostages and thus far in this case, 135 palestinian prisoners, detainees as well, to be able to move safely across the front lines to be able to be returned to their families and loved ones. that's basically how it works. we don't participate -- we're not an actor in those negotiations. the agreements take place between the parties and then they approach us about facilitating the releases. >> and what about access by the international red cross to some of the hostages, that's some of the discussions that has been under way for these week plus pause included access by the international red cross and others to the hostages, that hasn't happened or has it? >> we have been since october 7th condemning the taking of the hostages. it is an act that is prohibited by the laws of armed conflict by the international humanitarian law, we have been very clear about that. and have been calling for their immediate and unconditional release. we have been doing that repeatedly, publicly, in the discussions that we have been having as well, with the different parties of the conflicts and the other states and actors that have an influence over these things. but we also have been offering our services since day one to try and have an access to those being held, to try and be able to assess their conditions, to be able to help them and to facilitate connections and contacts between them and their families. and up until this point, we have been unable to have that access. so, this is something that we have been working on, as i mentioned, from october 7th, as recently as the last couple of days, and there is no -- where we don't try to raise this and push for access. our teams in gaza are very much ready and willing to go ahead with trying to carry out that access as soon as it can be operationalized and arrived at. at this point, that access is not yet been granted. >> and, you know, in fact, i'm thinking on a personal level, i remember the role that the international red cross played as far back as 1985 after the earthquake in september of 1985 in mexico city, where there was a lot of supplies and work done with -- to help the mexican people back then. i'm wondering, the objectivity of an organization like yours is really paramount in any possible success story from your perspective. how do you or do you have that objectivity, that neutrality, that can help you continue serving? >> that's a great question, jose. and, look, you know, as an institution, as an organization, we basically have been trying to do this work since 1863, when the geneva conventions were established and our role was established and really trying to fulfill that mandate to neutrally and partially and independently try and protect the victims of conflict. that's what we have been trying to live up to all these years and there isn't a context or conflict where we aren't tested to try to live up to that mandate. and as you say, we do this in lots of contexts. in colombia just this year, we have been involved in the facilitation of the release of some 56 hostages. so it is not just in this context with the israeli hostages, palestinian prisoners, this is something that we do in a number of other contexts around the world, each and every year. and in ways that are more or less publicized. so clearly this is something that we try to live up to, this is a very polarized conflict, this is extremely challenging for all concerned. and especially for the hostages themselves, for their families, for the prisoners, for their families, for the people in gaza that have been directly affected, for the israelis that were unfortunately suffered the attack on october 7th, those are the people, the victims of this conflict that we are trying our best to serve. but we are often constrained by the space that we are enabled to have in these contexts. so, in each and every case we're doing all we can, trying to enlarge that space in this context all the time. but it is a challenge. certainly. >> patrick, thank you very much for being with us. really appreciate your time. >> thank you, jose. much appreciated. and turning now to breaking news out of the new york city trial that threatens former president donald trump's massive business empire, just in the last few minutes an appellate court reinstated a gag order that bars the former president from commenting on the judge presiding over the case and his staff. joining us now is msnbc legal analyst lisa rubin. good morning. what is this all about today? >> so, president trump and his lawyers, there are gag orders affecting both of them, jose, have moved for a stay of the gag order. they were granted that stay on an interim basis while an appeals court in new york considered their motion. today, we're hearing news from four judges in the first department which is part of the appellate court here in new york, reinstating that gag order. their two-page order is extremely terse. they just say that having read all of the papers filed by both president trump and his team, the attorney general of new york, tisch james and her team, and the new york state court system on behalf of judge arthur engoron and his law clerk, having read all the papers, they are denying the motion for a stay of those two gag orders. and are lifting the interim stay. so, of course, the appeals of the gag orders themselves are still continuing. but practically speaking they won't be decided by the end of this trial. and that means for the duration of this trial, we should expect that former president trump and his legal team continue to be under an order that denies them the right to speak about any of the court personnel, unlike the d.c. circuit, where -- i'm sorry, unlike the d.c. court where the gag order that was in effect was broader, the one in new york solely concerns court personnel and particularly the principle law clerk that assists the judge with this case. those are back in effect as of today and not a moment too soon, i would add. just last night, donald trump posted something to truth social talking about judge engoron's wife and the law clerk. >> lisa rubin, thank you so much. up next, george santos says he will not resign, just a day before he could be expelled from congress. you're watching "jose diaz-balart reports" on msnbc. cs you're watching "jose diaz-balart reports" on msnbc. i'm kareem abdul jabbar. i was diagnosed with afib. the first inkling that something was wrong was i started to notice that i couldn't do things without losing my breath. i couldn't make it through the airport, and every like 20 or 30 yards i had to sit down and get my breath. every physical exertion seemed to exhaust me. and finally, i went to the hospital where i was diagnosed with afib. when i first noticed symptoms, which kept coming and going, i should have gone to the doctor and told them what was happening. instead, i tried to let it pass. if you experience irregular heartbeat, heart racing, chest pain, shortness of breath, fatigue, or light-headedness, you should talk to your doctor. afib increases the risk of stroke about 5 times i want my experience to help others understand the symptoms of atrial fibrillation. when it comes to your health, this is no time to wait. a few years ago, i came to saona, they told me there's no electricity on the island. we always thought that whatever we did here would be an emblem of what small communities can achieve. trying to give a better life to people that don't have the means to do it. si mi papá estuviera vivo, sé que él tuviera orgulloso también de vivir de esta viviendo una vida como la que estamos viviendo ahora. es electricidad aquí es salud. hi, my name is damion clark. if you have both medicare and medicaid, i have some really encouraging news that you'll definitely want to hear. depending on the plans available in your area, you may be eligible to get extra benefits with a humana medicare advantage dual-eligible special needs plan. all of these plans include a healthy options allowance, a monthly allowance to help pay for eligible groceries, utilities, rent, and over-the-counter items. the healthy options allowance is loaded onto a prepaid card each month. and whatever you don't spend, carries over from each month. other benefits on these plans include free rides to and from your medical appointments. and our large networks of doctors, hospitals and pharmacies. so, call the number on your screen now and ask about a humana medicare advantage dual-eligible special needs plan. humana. a more human way to healthcare. 28 past the hour. in the face of a potential third expulsion vote tomorrow, embattled republican congressman george santos held a press conference on capitol hill this morning. he remained defiant insisting he would not resign and called out the ethics committee report and his fellow lawmakers. >> i leave, the bullies take place. this is bullying. the reality of it is it is all theater. it is theater for the cameras. it is theater for the microphones. it is theater for the american people. at the expense of the american people because no real work is getting done. >> ali vitali, great seeing you this morning. what is next for the congressman? >> reporter: well, call it theater, call it a circus, it is clear that santos wants to be in the center of it. this is the way that he has acted from the moment that he got to congress amid the scandals about the lies that he told voters in long island during the time that he was a candidate and then ultimately through him being elected to congress. those troubles, of course, have only gotten worse with the addition of actual criminal indictments. and now we just wait to see what this vote will yield. they begin today on debate of the santos expulsion resolution. the actual vote on the substance of whether or not to expel the long island congressman will be tomorrow, though, jose. and santos has been clear, he expects that there are the votes to expel him, this is the third time that it is being taken up by the congress and the third time may be the charm. there are some lawmakers including the speaker of the house who say they have reservations not about what santos has specifically allegedly done, but expelling a lawmaker prior to the courts reaching their own conclusion. on the other hand, some lawmakers say they read the ethics report, it was damning enough, taken altogether with all the other scandals and allegations that are already publicly out there, they feel they know enough about the congressman to vote to expel him. we'll see if they have the two-thirds majority they need though tomorrow. >> and so that's the vote tomorrow. meanwhile, ali, in the senate, there were some dramatic moments from lawmakers on the judiciary committee? >> reporter: yeah, really dramatic, fiery. take a look at what this hear ing has looked like and i'll explain. >> you just destroyed one of the most important committees in the united states senate. and you set a precedent which would be repeated every time one party or the other takes advantage and takes -- it sets a precedent that will then become the norm. congratulations on destroying the united states senate judiciary committee. >> i mean this is so unnecessary, to ruin the committee over a political exercise is going nowhere. >> reporter: destroying the judiciary committee as one republican senator was saying to the chairman, dick durbin. all of this is because of something that durbin is doing procedurally, basically not letting these republican senators talk before nominees are voted on in the judiciary committee. that is why they're angry right now. today they're about to embark on considering subpoenas for conservatives like leonard leo and harlan crowe at the center of the supreme court ethics battle. durbin has been reedleading on saying he wants more testimony and more public light shed on what is going on between the supreme court and some of the conservative donors who people like justice clarence thomas have been linked to. republicans, of course, have been stone walling that, so technically this is about a procedural thing that durbin just did, but actually it is not, jose. >> ali vitali on capitol hill, thank you. up next, new and, well, concerns about escalating violence in the israeli occupied west bank. you're watching "jose diaz-balart reports" on msnbc. w. you're watching "jose diaz-balart reports" on msnbc. everyone's gonna need more tide. it's a mess out there. that's why there's 85% more tide in every power pod. -see?

>> nothing in the world justifies that. and it is tragic and it is unfortunate, and i hope this will be investigated. and i hope that the circumstances and the contexts are different than what was shown in your footage, but if the footage is indeed accurate, there is nothing in the world that would justify this. so, you're not going to get any explanations or defense or some lame, you know, soft, you know, nothing for me on this. i'm totally in agreement with you. >> admiral, meanwhile, hamas claimed responsibility for the bus stop attack in jerusalem this morning, that killed at least three people. they continue to strike inside israel. is this pause only a pause for gaza? >> i think it is going to continue to be more violence, both inside israel, hamas is going to continue to want to show that it still has operational capability. and i think the really bad news for israel in this footage is the way in which the west bank is starting to bubble, bubble, bubble. that's very concerning. not only as a matter of command and control, and another front of combat potentially, and let's hope it doesn't go there, but also ultimately israel has to work out some structure of government for gaza after the military operations are concluded. one aspect of that would be to try to work with the palestinian authority. these kind of incidents are going to make that much harder, jose. so, it is not good footage for israel and it is not only tragic in a human dimension, it is going to make the politics and the diplomacy of this much harder. >> yeah, ambassador, just getting the extension to this pause was much more difficult, it seems, in getting the first four days of a pause, a deal was reached three minutes before the deadline. what does it tell us about how fragile or precarious this truce is. >> extraordinarily precarious. and i have to start by saying that admiral stavridis is 100% right and on the money in describing the potential escalation in the west bank as the next big challenge. here's the thing with gaza, when the initial cease-fire began it was time to frame a four-day deal. but in the agreement that was a clause saying it is extendible by one day or two day increments contingent upon the number of hostages being released. that is endless. that could go on until the last hostage is released. however, jose, there are two distinct groups of hostages. there are the noncombatants, the children that are still there, the women, the elderly, and then there is a sizable group of soldiers, uniformed soldiers, both male and female, and i doubt that hamas will deal with them according to the same pattern of hostage deals that was -- that we experienced in the last few days. so what you're seeing now, if i may add one more thing, is secretary of state antony blinken visiting israel, trying to extend this cease-fire without calling it a cease-fire to end all cease-fires, but on the other hand, reiterating its position that admiral stavridis mentioned indirectly and that is that the palestinian authority should extend its governance to gaza, which israel is at this point intransgent and reluctant to entertain. >> you know, admiral, israel says it wants to destroy hamas. thousands and thousands of people have been killed in gaza since the start of the war, including many civilians. so, what happens and how does it go forward once this pause ends? >> militarily this will go forward using a combination of special forces on the ground, out in front of larger ground troop formations. i think you're going to see less of the massive overhead bombing approach and much more precision work. and let's recall, jose, as you and i have discussed, the most precise weapon on a battlefield is not a precision-guided bomb or precision-guided missile, it is a foot soldier. so i think israel is going to go after those tunnels, militarily, and decommission them. but none of that can really get moving at speed until the hostage situation is resolved. and then finally, as the ambassador mentioned a moment ago, the west bank could become a second and difficult front. israel still has to be very mindful of what is to the north. hezbollah, with 130,000 missiles, that, i think, is a real existential threat for israel as well. >> indeed. as that existential threat continues to be fed by iran and others. thank you, both, for being with us today. up next, we have breaking news from the u.s. border. plus, terrifying moments caught on tape, border patrol agents rescue struggling migrants out of the rio grande. we have an update on the humanitarian crisis on our border next. you're watching "jose diaz-balart reports" on msnbc. b. you're watching "jose diaz-balart reports" on msnbc. rg this kitchen.

>> we made plans for 700 people a day. >> reporter: now? >> we have now 1,000 people all times here. >> reporter: many asylum seekers waiting to get into the country, but also missing their families back home. they say it's hard to leave your mom and dad and siblings. she cried a lot on the journey from venezuela. her family facing an uncertain future. official migrant encounter numbers aren't in yet for november, but they represent so much. this week, they are redirecting resources in texas and arizona to assist the u.s. border patrol with taking mie graing migrants custody. it's impacting cities nationwide. new york city says 3,000 migrants are pouring into the city each week. >> this is the number one issue that's facing the city right now. >> reporter: in a city that's seen frigid temperatures, chicago is setting up camps to deal with what the illinois governor is calling a humanitarian crisis. >> winter is here. we want to make sure they have someplace to go. >> reporter: in washington, lawmakers are hoping to strike a deal on the border. so far, republicans and democrats have been unable to reach any agreement. >> it has been 37 years since there has been comprehensive immigration reform. in that time, we have not seen the progress that we want, deserve, or need. >> reporter: back here in texas, governor abbott said -- he posted online that until president biden secures the southern border, the state of texas will continue bussing migrants to sanctuary cities. >> morgan chesky, thank you very much. new this morning,n exclusive year-long investigation by the el times, part of the usa today network, takes a look at the mi humanitarian crisis at the southernorder with some just harrowing findings. it begins, this year, migrants died in this harsh landscape in the desert and neighbors and on city streets in numbers never seen before at this border cross crossing. joining us now is the reporter behind that investigation. lauren, thank you for being with us. this extraordinary work that you just complete -- for example, 149 migrants confirmed dead in border patrol's el paso sector. six years ago, six people were dying. what's happening? >> yeah, jose, it was a tragic year here in the el paso corridor. as we saw migration fall through the summer here, ironically, deaths rose. that's in part because those who were crossing the border were not turning themselves in at the border but taking more dangerous risks like scaling the 30-foot wall or crossing through the rio grande. the problem shocked even border patrol here. we know that migrant deaths had historically been a significant problem in south texas and in arizona. especially in the summer with excessive temperatures in arizona. el paso had one of its hottest summers on record. among theindings, they were going out two or three times a day to address human remains found in the desert. >> lauren, you also talk about people in el paso literally walking up to the decomposing body of a woman who had come in. it's not just happening in the desert. of course, you also mention in there that these numbers don't include the many who have died on the other side waiting for their opportunity to get in. >> that's right. >> i think, lauren, we lost you. i want to apologize. are you back? >> i'm here. can you hear me? >> i can hear you now. please, continue. >> okay. i was going to say that the el paso desert abuts city neighborhoods. people were dropping dead near elementary schools, near community colleges. in one case, a child stumbled on a decomposing body. it's not happening in remote regions. it's happening right in the urban landscape. >> lauren, i thank you for this extraordinary work that you have put out. i thank you for being with us this morning. that wraps up the hour for me. i'm jose diaz-balart. you can reach me on social media @jdbalart. thank you for the privilege of your time. andrea mitchell picks up with more news right now. electric. we always thought that whatever we did here would be an emblem of what small communities can achieve. trying to give a better life to people that don't have the means to do it. si mi papá estuviera vivo, sé que él tuviera orgulloso también de vivir de esta viviendo una vida como la que estamos viviendo ahora. es electricidad aquí es salud. i'm kareem abdul jabbar. i was diagnosed with afib. the first inkling that something was wrong was i started to notice that i couldn't do things without losing my breath. i couldn't make it through the airport, and every like 20 or 30 yards i had to sit down and get my breath. every physical exertion seemed to exhaust me. and finally, i went to the hospital where i was diagnosed with afib. when i first noticed symptoms, which kept coming and going, i should have gone to the doctor and told them what was happening. instead, i tried to let it pass. if you experience irregular heartbeat, heart racing, chest pain, shortness of breath, fatigue, or light-headedness, you should talk to your doctor. afib increases the risk of stroke about 5 times i want my experience to help others understand the symptoms of atrial fibrillation. when it comes to your health, this is no time to wait. hi, my name is damion clark. if you have both medicare and medicaid, i have some really encouraging news that you'll definitely want to hear. depending on the plans available in your area, you may be eligible to get extra benefits with a humana medicare advantage dual-eligible special needs plan. all of these plans include a healthy options allowance, a monthly allowance to help pay for eligible groceries, utilities, rent, and over-the-counter items. the healthy options allowance is loaded onto a prepaid card each month. and whatever you don't spend, carries over from each month. other benefits on these plans include free rides to and from your medical appointments. and our large networks of doctors, hospitals and pharmacies. so, call the number on your screen now and ask about a humana medicare advantage dual-eligible special needs plan. humana. a more human way to healthcare. nice footwork. man, you're lucky, watching live sports never used to be this easy. now you can stream all your games like it's nothing. yes!
