The winds are down in the 110115 range but that doesnt make this storm any less dangerous especially for the storm surge. The area i seeing will certainly be underwater. This is a list of hurricanes they survived since 1996. They have been here since 1951, they have boarded up and taken all the merchandise out of the store but florence is different, the only thing to do is pray. The reason to shop is still here is it was blessed by the priest in 1951. Reporter the final sunrise before florence, captain wade is going to lose somewhere between two and three weeks of charter fishing. He can survive it. A bigger question for guys like this, the shrimp boat heading into drydock, florence not only has the ability to destroy the homes but all these fishing grounds, meaning he may lose his house and his ability to make a living. Everybody sticking together very well and helping each other out. Reporter you are going to need it. Reporter they havent seen a storm this strong in two decades. Even the Police Department is getting boarded. The Fire Department next door in Atlantic Beach is staging all their equipment. They will have to leave themselves before they can come back and try to rescue those who stayed. The apparatus cannot respond, risk the lives of our personnel. Reporter this is the last of the hurricane party, first time this bar is closed for a storm other than mandatory curfew. A big deal if you are closed. We are open 365 days a year from 10 00 until 2 00 every day but this is a huge deal. This is the third hurricane you have written out. This is the fourth one. Irene, sandy up in new york, matthew arriving in North Carolina and now florence. Reporter folks deciding to ride this out have 12 hours or so to leave. The surf has started to come up, the winds of started to come over the bridges at 150 miles an hour, evacuations farther south, the storm has started to turn to the left. They have a little longer to heed those evacuation warnings. Shannon we will honor some midnight heros a little earlier. The cajun navy, the texas captain of the cajun navy, he had hundreds of volunteers are making the trip to the carolinas, they will prepare for florence to make landfall. Another hundred gallons of fuel, the first 7 days is usually search and rescue. The last two it all depends on the storm. They 7 today 10.

Shannon orlando answer on the areas, First Responders stocking emergency vehicles with extra pillows, blankets, bandages, oxygen and other critical medical supplies, awaiting the call like many fellow americans, heading to the carolinas in this time of need. From the local response, claims that fema gave a bunch of money to ice. One democratic lawmaker, and good evening, kristin. The hurricane hasnt hit but fema is under fire, Democratic Senators accusing the Trump Administration of diverging 10 million in funds away from fema and to ice, immigration and Customs EnforcementAgency Responsible for influencing the president s 0tolerance policy at the border and it is likely no coincidence these accusations are coming out hours before the first big hurricane of the year hits. This is going to be one of the biggest ones to ever hit our country. Reporter the remote expense for Hurricane Florence but jeff merkley says the president shortchanged federal Recovery Efforts weeks ago just as Hurricane Season was starting. An evil partnership in which the funds are being taken away from preparation. After we knew the impact of the three massive hurricanes from last year and the money is directed towards a program that comes from a dark place in the heart of the administration. The development of Homeland Security says under no circumstances with any Disaster Relief transferred from fema to Immigration Enforcement efforts. Femas administrator is accusing the senator of playing politics. That money has nothing to do with what you see behind us, it does not pay for the response, does not come from the Disaster Relief fund fema was poorly prepared for Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and criticized after sandy in 2012. Last september it wasnt ready for Hurricane Maria to hit puerto rico according to the after action report but there are signs that this you could be different. People and listening, evacuating. They are moving tractortrailers full of people, there is urban search and rescue team meeting in. They are ready for the storm. First responders, Law Enforcement and fema are getting tremendous accolades from politicians and the people. We are ready. Reporter no matter how ready the federal government is theres only so much they can do for a storm this big. The Washington Post running an editorial declaring donald trump complicit with the storm because of his administrations regulatory policies on things like fossil fuels, quote, the president has cemented the gop legacy as one of reaction and reality denial. Sadly few in his party appear to care. Lindsay graham is a republican from South Carolina, welcome. Do you feel the president and the feds are giving you everything they can . He called at 5 00 and said do you have everything you need . Anything we are not doing for South Carolina he would like me to do . He told tim scott and the governor, im pleased with the Trump Administrations response to the impending hurricane. What im worried about his people being responsible for themselves. The government can only do so much. If you dont leave in the next 24 hours you are going to get caught with no power. If you get hurt no one will help you so leave the areas in question. I worried people misunderstand what is about to happen. Hugo. Estate away, strong winds. Matthew a couple years ago soaked the state. This is a 1two punch. You are going to have torrential rain and category 3 winds and it could stay around for a couple days. There is no place in South Carolina or North Carolina for water to go. We are waterlogged. Im worried about flooding and wind damage and if you dont leave now you could be trapped for weeks before anybody can get you. The Administration Made a real show up saying we are ready. Fema is ready, we are ready for state partners and local partners, and the response to what happened in the carolinas and georgia, this impact, is going to be so much better than what happened with maria in puerto rico hinting this president cares more about americans on the continental 48 states and the people of for rico. This is what Rush Limbaugh had to say about that today. Trump is more out of touch than bush was during katrina and Hurricane Florence hasnt even hit. There is almost like demonic possession that is come over these people. , president when. Of this is a good response there will be the comparison to last year. He is going to win with the people of South Carolina, North Carolina and georgia if he keeps doing what he is doing leaders to puerto rico it is an island nation, a very tragic things that happened. I have to focus on what is coming. The president is in the here and now, he is president of the united states. He called myself, governor tim scott. I cant think of anything that he has not offered that i wish he would offer. That is all i can say, to the people of South Carolina the president is on this, the National Emergency center in dc tomorrow to get an update, i will be home later in the day and we are as prepared as i know how to be but i want to stress this, you can do something about your own fate here. In the areas in question along the coast please leave. You are on the Senate Judiciary committee, questioning hearings for Brett Kavanaugh. In the next week or so that he will get around to voting but they he answered 1000 followup questions the primarily democrats had but tonight we are also hearing senator collins, a key gop vote in this says she has more questions, she wants to meet with him again. What do you think it is at this point . It is good. He couldnt have done a better job. The criticism against them is mostly manufactured. If you dont want to vote for conservative republican nominee just be honest about it. They are accusing him of things he did not do. He never talked to a lawyer in a 3person law firm about the mueller case, he had no idea he wasnt in on that. Miranda says he didnt, he accessed documents that were there for the taking and it might not have been the best way to deal with it. Here is the question. Nobody has said that Brett Kavanaugh knew anything about it. I want to read something from the New York Times talking about threats coming against senator collins and staff, a spokeswoman for ms. Collins provided the New York Times with copies of the letter and multiple voicemail messages addressed to the senator using folder language that we cant repeat on the air and outright threats. 25yearold female staff member at one of ms. Collinss main offices that he hoped she would be raped and impregnated. Where are we . How did we get to this point with this nomination . People crawling out from under rocks. Susan collins is a good thoughtful senator. She voted for senator alana kagan, i hope she does the same for Brett Kavanaugh. He is the best mind of this generation on the conservative side. The American Bar Association rated him wellqualified, the highest rated for integrity and competency and character, they dont have an act to grind. Notably was he mainstream but probably the brightest person of his generation on the conservative side. Do you meet with emergency folks tomorrow and had to South Carolina, all our best to the folks there and we will be updating you in washington. The people in North Carolina, no place for the water to go. I worry about the flooding more than anything else. Hopefully folks will heed all the warnings and be away from that area. We wish you the best. We will have much more on florence but first former secretary of state John Kerry Admits to meeting with top iranian officials in an effort to salvage the Iran Nuclear Deal in conflict with the current administrations decision to walk away from it and a damning report against bashar assad and his syrian regime, the Us Ambassador is not mincing words tonight.

Shannon former secretary of state john kerry not ruling out a 2020 president iran confirms he has been meeting with top iranian officials to salvage president obamas Iran Nuclear Deal, the one the current president walked away from. John kerry met with the foreign minister three or four times recently and claims that is completely normal. Every secretary of state continues to meet with foreign leaders, goes to security conferences, goes around the world. We all do that and we have conversations about the state of affairs in the world to understand them. Is john kerry undermining the maximum pressure strategy . Lets talk about it with retired 4star general and fox news senior strategic analyst general jack keane. This is the world you run in, it is common as the former secretary says for him to keep meeting with foreign leaders especially on issues of importance . Nothing wrong with meeting with foreign leaders. All former government officials do that but that is not what is happening here. What is reported is secretary carrie is not just criticizing the current us policy but undermining that policy with a foreign power. Not just a foreign power but an enemy of the united states, they have been killing us with their proxies so i never heard of anything like it. I think it is atrocious behavior. I think it qualifies an alltime new low for Us Government official in their behavior when they are out of office. This is what he says about the rest of the world and what hes hearing about how they view donald trump. I think everybody in the world is talking about waiting out donald trump. You have our allies, for people we worked with the closest over the years saying what is next . Waiting out the current administration. That sounds right to you . Sounds like something john kerry would say. I traveled to europe, the middle east, far east, southeast asia, and trump doesnt get perfect marks to be sure but gets better marks than his predecessor got. Why is that . Because he is standing up to aggression and malign behavior. Taking on russia in a consequential way. It pleases our allies in the far east and southeast asia. He is challenging radical islam and trying to get people to Work Together to undermine that ideology. He gets pretty decent marks. Iran is involved in proxy situations. One of their top officials, we want to contrast with nikki haley and what she has to say. He is on the losers side because of the logic of power and things he can continue for some time but i dont think he would benefit. Iran is feeling the pain and we are suffocating them, they have to address their support and terrorism. Shannon how is this playing out in the decision to walk away from these deals . Pretty positively, the noose is tightening around irans because we applied sanctions again, a lot more coming in november when the energy and Oil Sanctions kick in. Their economy is struggling, currency in freefall, inflation spiraling and food shortages, Power Outages are more the norm. Theres a struggling parliament, they gave almost a no vote of confidence to president rouhani. There are serious issues in iran and the pressure will get greater. It is possible iranians will pick up the phone and call and say lets talk about this. In other words what donald trump has said all along, we got a lousy deal, kill it and replace it with a better one. He may get a better deal as a result of the pressure. Heather got the north koreans to the table. Thank you. Harvey weinsteins accuser speaking out again, accusing the disgraced hollywood mogul of rape and she has a video she is taking public.
