alertmac now a category of four hurricane, boys to make landfall in florida and the next two hours. things are getting very dicey, multiple states bracing for the worst, storm surge, heavy wind threatening the entire gulf coast and beyond. we will get to the monolog in moments but let's check in across city in florida, yeah, fox weather is robert rae, what is the latest? >> and things are deteriorating in a big way here, on the nature coast." and eminent landfall in the next two hours, the wind speeds just updated the national hurricane center to 140 miles per hour sustained. that is catastrophic, like you cannot even explain. it is coming in here in the dark night, we are beginning just the rain in the wind and it will just deteriorated more in the
6:02 pm
coming hours. has already about 400,000 customers without power in the great state of florida, a state of emergency here across the entire peninsula, up into georgia. one of the biggest concerns after landfall is as a system tracks up into georgia into the huge metropolis of atlanta at, they could potentially see hurricane-force winds of there. as a know, that is the city of trees and it will likely have a lot of significant damage and power outages. meantime we still have power here as of the system will likely make landfall just north of us. we may even get to the eastern i wall which is the dirty side, the most intense side appeared we are raising for a lot of things to start flying around here soon back and i have to say, anywhere on the coast which is about 20 miles away from where we are at, it is on survivable. i hope you will take the warnings and left, it has to happen. if not it is probably too late
6:03 pm
at this point. hurricane helene category for, hundred and 40 miles sustained winds. >> sean: robert, hope you will take your device, if not please hunker down safely. joining is now the governor of florida, my home state, ron desantis. i know florida has a great experience dealing with these hurricanes, but with that said, there's always a danger. you are in tallahassee, but in the path of where this is coming to pick of course they have the storm center, tell us the latest tag did most of the people that had to get evacuated get evacuated? >> we have a category four storm , has increased in our city hundred and 40-mile-per-hour sustained window. that is a real deal major hurricane, it is also used warm that is very large, it is producing really significant wind gusts far away from with
6:04 pm
the eye of the storm. we have had storms in the past that have been category five that were a bit more compact. this is a stronger category four where you will see damage spread far and wide. we had a been messaging about the storm surge, the way evacuation orders put in place county by county in various areas depending on the threat, before really the last couple of days. i know a lot of people heated those calls per so when you're talking about a storm of this magnitude, it will produce some serious surge into this big band area in particular. irons are reported talk about that east side, the dirty side of the storm, we have this thing landfall may be somewhere in taylor county which is southeast of tallahassee, so always see where the eye makes landfall will be a big deal. everything to the east of that,
6:05 pm
you're talking about dixie county, some of those areas already experienced two hurricanes in the last 13 months. they had hurricane at dahlia in 2023 and earlier this year they had hurricane debbie. definitely a major event but florida prepares for these things. we have over 30,000 utility workers ready to go as soon as the storm passes, they will be doing the power restorations. we have all of our surge in risky assets ready to go if there are people that stayed behind and they are in harm's way, as soon as it is safe to go they will be there doing it appeared we even did new innovative things like providing free rides to be able who were going and evacuating to shelters. that has been a lot that has been done up to this point, focused by and large have been very cooperative. as soon as the storm passes, you will see the rescue efforts and
6:06 pm
the restoration efforts and begin as soon as possible. >> sean: all right governor we appreciate all your efforts, we be monitoring all throughout the night. thank you for your time. also denied we will preview kamala harris' bizarre trip tomorrow to the border, the borders are might as well make the trip, 39 days before an election. have to give her credit, that is a bold political move. for his she lied to all of us, all the -- the board is secure, of the border is closed, she said it over and over again. then kamala harris said she did not have to visit of the border as a border czar, hasn't been to europe so year we get ready, kamala harris may be ready. inches blaming the drum before the board a crisis. nash is going to the border for a camping photo off with 30 days to go because it has become such a liability to her. earlier today president trump had this to say about it kamala harris border fallout. >> mr. trump: she should save
6:07 pm
it her airfare, go back to the white house and tell the president to close the border. he can do it with the signing the cactuses signature on a piece of paper to the border patrol, instead she is it going there to try to convince people she wasn't as bad as everybody thought she was. she was a western history! >> sean: and doing all of trump's successful border policies with the stroke of a pen, they can bring him back with a stroke of a pen. for gaza trip to the border, go to d.c., wake up joe biden, have him sign. border could be secured tomorrow. we will have a moral on the border czar, at the vp trip to arizona. straight-ahead, coming up. but our top story is something that has not received a lot of attention, let's call them the estate round media mob and wags fake as night of the vice president went on msnbc for
6:08 pm
her first and only solo interview of the campaign with a friendly left-wing host who wants a mom magnitude win. asking a lot of softball questions, did not go on long, few follow-up spook it or not go well, here is kamala harris testing out a big new word, holistically. >> some of the work is going to be through what we do in terms of giving the benefits around transit dollars for a and doing -- looking holistically at the connection between that and housing and looking at hollis at of the incentives our government can create for local and state governments to engage in and planning in a holistic manner that includes prioritizing affordable housing. >> sean: okay i'll play. how about a holistic look at a lomax disaster at the border? millions of people lead in undivided into this country causing a spike in housing demands, we have five five-star
6:09 pm
hotels, new york city around the country, filled and distorted paid for by you, the american taxpayer, school districts running out of money, that is a massive spike in enrollment predominantly and really high need to school spook then of course the problem of english as a second language, and that means american kids are getting a lot less attention because of the influx of biden-harris and invited illegals and their kids and the health care system also overloaded by the increased demand. now under financial stress because patients do not have insurance! you're paying for that to appear and increase demand on welfare and charities, meaning american citizens -- citizens that our veterans are not getting the assistance they need, not enough money to go around. that is a spike in drug trafficking, driving fentanyl prices down to 25 cents a pellet meaning more americans are dying, drug prices crashing,
6:10 pm
caused by a spike in the use and record number of overdose deaths. hundreds of individuals connected to terrorist groups have crossed that boredom, completely invited and i'm sure they are planning and scheming peer good it is not a matter of if it is a matter of when, another 9/11 or worse happens and i pray to god i'm wrong but i know not wrong a scope small towns, big cities, spike in crime. the south american and venezuelan street gangs taking over areas, untold numbers of women and children. men smuggled across the border, being capped as. there being forced into. dozens of families losing loved ones to illegals, murdering their loved ones. dozens of women and children have been because of joe biden and a calm "coming into this country. and hundreds of other americans,
6:11 pm
victims of other violent crimes break holistically, she has been a disaster and start of a three-point a five year late photo op trip to the border, how about you follow donald trump's advice guy go back to d.c., gave it joe biden a pen, wake him up, and all those trump policies that were working that he and david and you bragged about undoing, to many to name, how about you put them back in place? immediately purex by do not hold your breath. last night it kamala harris could not even answer a basic, symbol fundamental question from one of her supporters at msnbc. take a look. >> expanding that child tax credit or you mention housing to before, giving that extra money for a first home, you can't use corporate taxes or it's bin held in the senate, waiting as i wanted to do that? do you still go forward and borrow? >> we are going to have to raise corporate taxes. and we are going to have to --
6:12 pm
we going to have to make sure the biggest corporations and billionaires for pay their fair share. that is just. it's about paying their fair share. i'm not any bite -- i'm not mad at anybody for achieving success, but everybody should pay their fair share. >> sean: kamala harris! corporations don't pay taxes, they charge more for their goods and services. maybe economic as 101 would be a good idea. later on msnbc, even her interview with criticism, but not answering any questions, "the new york times" were not even impressed writing to " kamala harris responded to the basic and predictable questions with roundabout responses i did not provide as steps delude answer. "she even got back chugged by fake news cnn after lying to abode trump's record on many factoring jobs, everybody, even to those who want to hurt it when, understands that she is a
6:13 pm
terrible candidate as she was not of well-liked vice president and even a worse czar -- border czar. her beliefs are extreme and radical and has a medical dangers, rambling, meaningless bumper stickers and word salads begin no sense. kamala harris is a danger to the entire system of governance and it capitalism as we know it, a blend of incompetence and a new green deals, marxist radicalism. that but -- kamala harris campaign meanwhile makes no effort to clarify true positions or they just flat out lie about what she believes because providing taxpayer funding sex change for prisoners is not a winning message but that is what she supports, and based on her own words, we have the evidence. she also supports a boarding illegal behaviors, no respecting
6:14 pm
laws, pathway to citizenship? that is called amnesty, along with the sex change surgery, housing and education. you have to respect our laws pick laws pick take a look screening -- look at the logical positions she's taking and never been questioned about. banning private insurance, banning fracking, illuminated the filibuster to pass the 93 trillion-dollar green and new deal. she supports gun confiscation but she is packing, better not to break into her eye was kind she will blow you away just ask opera. and wants to raise taxes on all americans even unrealized capital gains which is a tax on it money have not even made yet! this would spell the end of capitalism, the end of the american dream, capitalism of the greatest wealth creating a system of mankind. it is only the tip of the iceberg. kamala harris, these policies is a extreme, radical and if implemented they are dangerous. she is a radical monsters who
6:15 pm
wants to be president without telling you what she really thinks or believes. it is not of the -- theoretical by the way, we know what her presidency would look like. the southern border was her responsibility, she was supposed to find the root causes. she failed miserably. anyway, adorning is now a former speaker of the house, with as just -- at 40 days to go. is just speaker kai gray to have a separate. >> great to be with you. have to say by the way, i could not help i think when he went through holistic leigha couple of times, the trump campaign should probably issue a t-shirt that says holistic lease stupid. now it's sort of captured the whole kamala harris campaign. >> sean: you better do that quite, because capitalism as you know what will be dead if she ever wins at the white house. i know that you have been extremely consistently confident that she will be exposed for the
6:16 pm
radicals that she is. i have been trying hard now for two months, i think it is beginning to enter the consciousness of american people. but early voting has started and i'm not sure everybody knows. and i think if they did know, they would never vote for her. so i think part of the message, why do you still remain so confident when the poles look so close? >> well, i think first of all that trump in the last 24 elections actually are performed in the polls because a news media, the propaganda media as i call it, is so hostile that the people for trump just will not say they are. he has consistently pulled ahead of the national poll. second i do think if you look at the data, it's beginning to sink in that she is first of all, not telling us the truth, it's a character issue. it is sinking in that you ask people where you better off --
6:17 pm
you know, she now has the worst support in the black community among black men. -- of any democratic candidate since 1956. so even though you think that she would have some appeal, young black man is saying no, it's not working. i cannot go to the grocery store. i cannot buy gasoline. the city is on a safe. and as illegal immigrants taking away my job. and you see a lot of the stuff going on, so i'm pretty confident that in the end it, people will decide that four years of her on top of four years of joe biden would both cripple the country permanently, and it would be a nightmare and then in a dangerous world where you have a war in ukraine, you have a war between israel and hezbollah and hamas and iran, have a terrible war in tehran.
6:18 pm
do you believe what she could be a commander in chief? and i think on that test she just loses badly. >> sean: you know, i remember i was the mc of your event in november of 1994 kaizen i.e. became speaker. i saw you earlier ain't of the day, and i got a chance to talk to you and i said, how do you feel about your chances denied? you were 100% confident i think you came within it two seeds if i'm not mistaken, where this would end up. with 40 days out of the election, different election system now because people vote early, it seems a vote in perpetuity, as we look at this night, 40 days outside of this election, where do you see this landing, and that would be for the presidency, the house and the senate. >> albot say first of all, it was joel on a subject or 17th
6:19 pm
1994 correctly. it with no judgement within 1 seed, literally exactly the seeds we carried, none of us thought we could beat him in downtown chicago and we did. and also tomorrow cagayan thrilled that congressman has actually bought all people together again, the 30th anniversary of unavailing of the contract of america. and we will celebrate as the capital tomorrow. very historic moment, we look forward to. if i had to make a guess, let me emphasize guess, i will tell you i was in the white house election night 2020, but up until midnight we were winning. then all of a sudden, state after state quit counting votes for and have a very deep sick feeling that it was all going to be much harder than we thought it would be. soured started and say unless they can steal enough votes in
6:20 pm
philadelphia or to offset the african american males, they are certainly going to lose pennsylvania. partly because of fracking in the west, partly because people are tired of it. i think they are very likely to lose georgia, north carolina, arizona, recently i had dinner with the nevada chamber of commerce and virtually every one of them thought that trump would carry nevada. 's 90 go down to michigan and wisconsin. and michigan, you have a democratic mayor, a muslim, announced publicly that he is endorsing a trump because you thought the biden-harris team was so dishonest and so incompetent that he could not continue to support them. so those kind of breaks are happening all over the place, and they will keep happening. you had a former state senate majority leader, at a current state senator, lead the
6:21 pm
democratic party in california. turning around state after state, you see on a attrition towards us. he came out just the other day and said we are now three points ahead on identity, into the poll that they've done every four years which is consistently been accurate. and i think they believe that trump will in fact when susie already got we appreciated. when we come back, alive updated, category four intentionally catastrophic hurricane is about to make landfall right here my great state of florida and kamala harris heads it to the border for nothing but a photo op. you will check in with sammy miller and kenny bruce, straight ahead.
6:27 pm
>> sean: this is a fox news alert and we are approached -- monitoring the progress of hurricane helene currently battering florida in the panhandle, expected to make landfall any minute now. joining us now, hurricane specialist. brian what is the latest? >> at 140-mile-an-hour hurricane barreling towards of the panhandle, three phase disaster in the making. phase one, at the circulation around it is pushing the golf
6:28 pm
water into tampa bay, 16 above, that is a record. over 5 feet in tampa bay flooding around tampa bay right now. major flooding down in naples and fort myers, also downtown. that is just phase one over this. really extreme situation here tonight on the big band of florida. just east of tallahassee, they certainly feel extensive damage expected here to happen in the next few hours. landfall 11, 11:30 o'clock at night eastern time period then phase three is the entire southeast. epic flood is forecast for western north carolina. you see flooding on the way, tornadoes here in atlanta, wind gusts 85, 90 miles an hour possible tomorrow morning to. this thing is it barreling to
6:29 pm
north. look at the size of. the entire northern part of the state of florida, southeast, this is the hurricane wind here. agency to pushing towards tallahassee. watch as we go overnight tonight , this is tomorrow morning to. hurricane winds in atlanta tomorrow morning, and with all the trees they are, this looks like were so then hurricane opal which was a major disaster in the atlanta area in 1995, and the influence of those over the entire southeast tomorrow morning. then it will taper down by saturday and move up into the midwest. this is a multistage, multistate disaster in the making here. we will be hearing all these different pockets of extreme damage tomorrow. >> sean: all right brian, prayers to our friends in florida and georgia and elsewhere per fox whether it is
6:30 pm
brandy campbell is in tampa, what is going on? >> right now we are in the downtown area where we are experiencing some flooding. we have the hillsborough river just beyond where we're standing, and at this point we are just one was the river. the river pouring into the streets, nudges aside by the other side as well. bayshore boulevard is flooded from miles, police have had it blocked out for the majority of the day, some car is definitely getting stuck in the situation. police asking people to just stay inside, looking live a khaki you can see we have the wind impact. this is nothing like how you would be experiencing that big band but we have already experienced hurricane forest wind gusts in this area. taking a look at the water you can say the wind is causing the ripples, the water slowly rising and as you get closer to the high tide tonight, in the water levels will increase.
6:31 pm
we can see a storm surge up to t this point in some areas hooked akey koe. >> sean: you have a question, as i truck behind you, is that an emergency vehicle? is adjustably trying to pass? >> this looks like it's the tree surface truck, i'm not sure after the storm they be -- might be doing some response to aid. maybe they were in the area and when to move their car. they could to be helping to the hour to. by they are speeding out of the flooding area. >> sean: please be careful, as all the wind behind you, it looks like it's kicking up quite a bit as. we appreciate it, a thank you. we will continue to monitor the storm, more updates coming ahead appeared for us, vice president kamala harris expected to appear at the southern border in the town of douglas, arizona.
6:32 pm
we can only be described as a blatant, desperate campaign photo. openly she plans on delivering an impassioned speech about stopping the flow of fentanyl across the border, nearly four years into a border crisis she herself created with joe biden. earlier today president trump weighed in on kamala harris' big plans on the border 3.5 years too late after lying and saying to the border is secured. >> mr. trump: they have stormed across our border like nobody in history on any border anywhere in the world, this never been any border in history where you had millions of people storming as like that. no sort of old country would allow it to. but she allowed her to because she is incompetent, she allowed her to because she never wednesday. she said she went once but it was not the right location. a location that was very mild and no danger. she never wednesday.
6:33 pm
she is going there tomorrow after almost four years, she's going to tomorrow to show you what a great job she did. even now the numbers are terrible. remember they are flying people over! and they have not stop without. they are flying hundreds of thousands of people over the border right now, they never stop that. >> sean: here with reaction, former senior advisor to president trump, fox news contributor is with us. tammy, edges go back to you know, we now have people, dozens of americans have been murdered, dozens have pain raped. we have these violent games, people with a known interior ties in the country. then we do have the drugs guided the fentanyl and opioids and she wants to gave free housing, food, hells gate education and sex changes surgery for those who do not respect our borders or sovereignty. she told us 3.5 year the border
6:34 pm
is secure. is this a game she is trying to play on the american people or are her poll numbers tanking on this issue so bad she's trying to stop the bleeding? >> louck she is finally going to. if everything has been fine as she said for years, why would she have to go to the border? this is not something that just happened in the six months. this is ground zero of most of our cultural and social issues in this country. all of the issues we are facing to. the crime, the suffering, in the druggist, talking about a fentanyl? maybe she should -- deal with the root cause and china. these problems are all linked together for a week administration, filled with buffoons who have condemned this nation, who have clearly created it incentive is to come to continue to come and as he
6:35 pm
mentioned, even flying people over. the crux was on monday, "new york times", seanna poll, showing a major shift in arizona and north carolina. prior to that debate, she was plus five in arizona. this is the first poll done completely after the debate and incorporated the oprah debacle with kamala harris, or little session, and now it is trump plus five in arizona. that is a 10-point switch in the state of arizona, in north carolina. calm "was plus three, it was a five-point switch for she was plus three, trump is now plus two. polls don't tell us what will happen, they are snapshots. they can show you the trend and the trend is of running away from kamala harris, it is no guarantee, by americans do not
6:36 pm
like when they are saying to. they do not like to be patronized like this. they do not like to be lied to. we know who is responsible and it is hurt, every time she sits down for an interview, she proves why it is her because she is a disconnected, she does not care and it she is desperate to try to show that she cares but the fact that she does not becomes even more clear whenever she opens her mouth. >> sean: stephen, a look at this and i do not know why jeannie is on her campaign thought this would be a good idea. my view it draws attention one of the weakest areas in terms of her record. if you look at every swing state , we are watching all very closely guided georgia, north carolina, pennsylvania, wisconsin, michigan, arizona, nevada. every single one of those states, and every state in every town, in every city has been impacted by the 11.5 plus
6:37 pm
million biden-harris and invited illegal immigrants. edges do not think this plays out well. >> this visit four years late puts the issue of the border innovation front and center in this campaign. and as president trump said it, kamala harris is now loading the planes with the illegal aryans and flying them into the heartland of america. inc. about this john! you're taking illegal aliens, flank them over to the border, not even counting them in border patrol statistics and depositing them in places like wisconsin, in pennsylvania, springfield, ohio. cities across north carolina, swing state after swing to stay they are dumping illegal aliens by the hundreds of thousands! some of them as you mentioned go on to commit heinous crimes
6:38 pm
break and when his own gang member has just been charged in prairie, do share to's small town in wisconsin with a brutal sexual assault. and what will you hear from calm "? you will not hear an apology to any of the families whose loved ones were brutalized, raped and murdered. she will not say one word to the family of laken riley. on one word to the family of rachel moore or any of the other americans whose lives she ended by letting in their killers pick she has their blood on her conscience at her hands. >> sean: i have been saying it a scope maybe instead of sex change operations and free hells gate -- hells gate and education, how about we give every and vetted biden-harris illegal aliens something free that i would support, a plane ticket back home.
6:39 pm
all right big i appreciate both of you, thank you. still ahead, the latest on hurricanes and max landfall which is imminent, we will take you live to the ground. also the new york city mayor cognitivism in new york history, the mayor charge in a historic federal indictment, adams claims he is being targeted. we will get that take, a straight ahead. and retirement savings. voya provides tools that help you make the right investment and benefit choices. so you can reach today's financial goals and look forward to a more confident future. voya, well planned, well invested, well protected. ♪ with fastsigns, create factory grade visual solutions to perfect your process. ♪ fastsigns. make your statement™.

please be careful. these ones got to be taken seriously. we appreciate appreciate your coverage for breaking tonight, new york city mayor has been and dated, five federal charges related to bribery, wire phones, soliciting campaign contributions from foreign nationals and again, this has never happened in new york city history, the 57-page indictment goes into great detail. it says "for nearly a decade adams sought, exempted and profited from benefits like luxury, international travel including from wealthy foreign business people "and at least one turkish official seeking to gain influence over him at. vaughan responded to the charges claiming that the bride and doj is targeting him up for political reasons. >> my fellow new york ins, it is my believe the federal government intends to charge me with crimes. if so, these charges will be
6:48 pm
entirely false, based on lies. but they would not be surprising. i always knew if i stood my ground for all of you, that i would be a targeted. and a target i became. >> sean: during his speech at trump tower, donald trump actually agreed with the mayor. take a look at this. >> mr. trump: i watched about one year ago when he talked about how the illegal migrants are hurting our city and the federal government should pay us , and we should not have to take them and i said you know what, you will be indicted within a year. i was exactly right. >> sean: also breaking today, five judge panel in new york heard oral arguments on donald trump's appeal the civil fraud ruling that demanded he pay over $450 million per the judges appeared receptive to reducing or even reversing that judgement, here with reaction,
6:49 pm
harvard law professor alan dershowitz and with matt whitaker. professor lessard with you. that's look at mayor adams, what's interesting about this, when you look at the new york city campaign finance laws, the match eight times whatever you bring in. in this case, $123,000 is the number we are talking about when that's $10 million or thereabouts, that is what they allege and it taxpayer-funded money for his campaign. and of course a luxury travel, et cetera on top of it break professor? >> i think this will be a hard case for the government to win pick a litigated lots of these cases, of the courts are reluctant to affirm these kinds of corruption convictions. and he's picketed very, very good lawyer a former student of mine had brilliant guy who has won a lot of cases. and i think that adams is making
6:50 pm
his defense cleared, he sees this as a political issue, he surrounded himself with the black leaders today. he is aiming for the -- at the least legal dismissal or a hunger dirty. i think he has a good chance that both rick have litigated a lot of these corruption cases, and i have gotten reversals, and other people have gotten reversals. sometimes dismissal at the trial, by the courts have been looking very skeptically at these broad-based corruption prosecutions for so don't take seriously or literally the fact there were so many charges. eta boils down to really a few essential charges. i think they are defensible, and i think that alex is a very good lawyer to defend against these cases. i am not sure there will be a conviction that is infirmed in this case. i think it is a long way between an indictment with the presumption of innocence at
6:51 pm
follows, and actual conviction particularly in this day and age where net jurors are very skeptical about of the political motivations of prosecutions after they saw what happened -- it by the way on the issue of the key is being argued now, in new york court of appeals, i found an amicus brief in that case, we both of you that the fine in this case violates the constitution. the eighth amendment or habits excessive fines. what could be more excessive than a fine of this amount when it was no allegation that anybody was hurt and no complaining witnesses at all? i think that verdict will be reversed as well. the courts are in real trouble today, they are becoming a politicized, jurors understand that. good lawyers can understand my take advantage of that. and think it is a good atmosphere for mayor adams to be tried in. >> sean: this is a case of the
6:52 pm
