and live out the american dream. we have a lot of work to do in the next 37 days. >> brian: what percentage of your friends are voting trump and harris? >> i would say 99% men. with the fun part of this election is women are flocking to trump more than ever under the age of 25. it's beautiful to see. >> brian: glad you had a chance to see trump and keep it going with the entrepreneurship. announcement, too. i know everyone in north carolina is trying to recover from the storm but talking about that and the election tomorrow. i'm be in charlotte in concord, north carolina called the sweet spot. i will be there for three hours previewing and reviewing the past debates and the vice presidential debate coming your way that night for three hours. our company will be carrying that. that's it for us. >> it's been an incredibly

apocalyptic weekend for all of us here in asheville, north carolina. there is almost no gas, there is almost no cell service, there is limited power, there is limited food. >> bill: one person speaking on behalf of so many. dire situation western part of north carolina. catastrophic storm damage making it near impossible for crews to deliver the food and water to those who desperately need it. a big story day three, working on day four. good morning. i'm bill hemmer, good morning to you. >> dana: i'm dana perino and this is "america's newsroom." the storm is gigantic and nearly 100 people are now confirmed dead from hurricane helene. 36 are in north carolina. the storm fact out roads and bridges leaving entire counties underwater. officials describing the damage as biblical. >> bill: the crews are working

to restore power. they have a long way to go. 2 million people across the southeast. also trying to bring back cell service and internet leaving families in the dark and whether or not their loved ones are safe. >> dana: president biden is about to give an update on the federal response scheduled for 10:30 a.m. eastern and bring it to you live as it happens. >> bill: we'll have a string of governors speaking as well. the former president, donald trump, will visit today and hand out supplies in the hard-hit city of georgia along the state's southern border with florida speaking from there this afternoon. let's begin coverage. steve harrigan has been on the story and live in asheville to bring us live what he is seeing there today. steve, hello. >> bill, a lot of people thought this storm was over a couple of days ago. i think they were caught by surprise with the level of devastation here far from the storm in north carolina. when you get down near the river

district where i am there is devastation. you have people who i was talking to this morning coming down to look at their house or job and the buildings are simply gone. one thing we're going to have to be careful with is the number of dead. it will change dramatically over the next few days. right now over 100. 30 of those killed right here. more than 600 people still unaccounted for is how high that death toll could go. the stress is coming from the lack of cell phone service. people can't get out and tell people they're safe. they can't move around. loved ones can't communicate with one another. that's the real stress and something fema officials are saying they're trying to fix as quickly as possible. >> first i would say our hearts go out to those impacted by this disaster. we're working hard to support those communities and survivors and their recovery and will be with them for the long haul. i think it is very difficult in

these days after a storm when you can't get in touch with a loved one. we understand it's difficult. we would suggest that if you look to your state and local officials where to go to be able to find out how to get access to them and call the red cross at 1-800-733-2767 >> one of the real challenges in the dark is trying to get around. we've been driving around all morning and giant trees blocking roads. you back up and you run into another tree. you realize how cut off people are and how hard it will be to get any significant aid to these people. we talked to volunteers this morning and they say people here need the basics, not only food and water but hygiene. people need to clean themselves. they don't have the means to do that in this muck. back to you. >> bill: where you are it was a wind event and significant water event. you've covered some storms. how does this compare or what do you see the challenge to be next

there? >> i think when you walk up to it destruction like this can be from a hurricane, tornado, earthquake. i think the flood is worse than anything because it is so thorough. it ruins everything. i think the worst part of it is it's sneaky. you don't hear it coming or know it's coming. it sneaks up on you before it kills you. >> dana: what do you think it will look like where you're standing now? what could it look like in 24 hours? is the water going down? >> the water is going down slowly. we hope for good weather over the next day or two. even after it goes down, there is just things are gone. things that used to be here. major buildings, major studios, they're gone. >> bill: all of that has to be taken away eventually. steve, there were reports over the weekend that numerous dams had been threatened. but the latest we have this morning is that no dams broke. that's kind of a silver lining a

little little bit for many there. >> certainly. like you guys said at the top, we have to be careful with the numbers. right now over 100 dead. 600 missing. hopefully as phone communication comes back in we'll see the 6 hundred scary number continue to come down. >> dana: what do you hear about that cell phone service capability? we know there is -- it's difficult. you talked about all the trees that are down. is there a possibility that satellites or star link can help? >> we're using a star link right now. we've seen a number of them in the area but also seeing help from around the country really just pour in. we've seen electric power trucks from new jersey just lining the highway. there is help on the way here in a hurry and you see it wherever you turn. >> bill: they need it. we'll check in with you throughout the morning. steve harrigan. asheville, north carolina. fox corporation made a donation

to the red cross as hurricane relief efforts and go to red cross.org/fox forward or scan the qr code on the screen. they could use the help. six minutes past the hour. another big story. >> dana: as we look live as smoke filling the sky over beirut. eight other leaders. terror group eliminated in just over a week. there could be more to come. nate foye is reporting live in tel aviv. >> stand-off between israel and iran. israel's prime minister netanyahu spoke directly to the iranian people. he blamed the regime for their suffering and he spoke about peace coming soon to the middle east. listen here. >> iran's tyrants don't care about your future, but you do. when iran is finally free and

that moment will come a lot sooner than people think, everything will be different. >> you heard him there. everything will be different soon, dana. meanwhile israel's galant said the next part of israel's plan may include them going into southern lebanon. hezbollah said it is ready for it. israeli air strike continues taking out terrorists from several organization. the head of hamas in lebanon in a separate strike. they sent a clear message to iran yesterday striking yemen after the houthi rebels fired two missiles at tel aviv last week. the strike in yemen was the same distance from israel as tehran: iran's parliament met over the weekend chanting death to israel. iran is helping hezbollah select

new leadership after nasrallah and two other terrorists in a strike on friday in beirut. also there are reports that israel is sending special units into southern lebanon to gather intelligence ahead of a possible ground invasion. the two big questions now are will israel actually do it, when will it happen? the other question is what will iran's response be? we'll send it back to you, dana. >> dana: thank you, nate, appreciate it. >> bill: extraordinary weekend, israel wiped out the entire leadership of hezbollah. nasrallah has been in charge for 32 years. jack keane is with us now, good morning to you. what is your best guess, general? what comes next and what are you watching for? >> first of all, right before our eyes we can see there is a strategic shift that has taken place. on october 7th, because of that surprise devastating attack t1200 killed, 250 hostages, the people in israel lost confidence

in that your security forces, military as a result of it because they thought they would always be protected. what has happened here with israel destroying close to the five brigades that have been in gaza still more work to be done there. i don't want to minimize there are still challenges there. now as you point out taking out the entire leadership structure of hezbollah. i mean, an intelligence penetration that is quite unprecedented. there is a shift that's taken place. certainly people of israel are returning confidence in their security forces. but more than that, the adversaries in the region are seeing israel's complete capability, their intelligence service and technology dominance that they have over an adversary and also the air power dominance that they have. i have believed for some time now eight weeks since there was a high ranking person killed in iran. the political chieftain of

hamas. iran has done nothing about it yet promised to do something. here we are. i think they're back on their heels as a result of what israel is doing. that's why i'm talking about deterrence. the hands off policy from the biden administration dealing with iran is dead wrong and hopefully they will back israel to the fullest here and give them some assistance. i truly believe iran probably has to do something to save face here, bill and dana. but i don't believe they want to go to war. they know they can't handle it with israel and they know the united states would be on the side of israel in that fight and they risk losing their entire regime as a result of it. >> dana: the israelis have reminded the west what it is like to feel when you are on offense against radical islamic terrorism andy lie lake says this in a free press. there are now strategic opportunities to go after iran's nuclear program. if harris end biden were wise

they would shelf their -- embrace israel's escalation. the west way to end a regional war is win it. with hezbollah, their arm in lebanon decapitated at this point until they can rebuild if they can do that, what about iran's -- how close are they to a nuclear weapon and could that be pushed back? >> a couple of things. certainly hezbollah's dramatic loss of leadership with set this organization back. but they have tens of thousands of fighters and tens of thousands of rockets and missiles. so that is still a formidable force. israel does not want to conduct a ground campaign. what they want is hezbollah to remove their forces so they can put their people back into their homes in northern israel. in other words, voluntarily do that. that's what the stepped up campaign and aggressiveness that we've seen for two weeks has been all about.

to get inside their head to pull that your forces back. if they don't do that, then they will go in there. prime minister netanyahu has promised us that. where the biden administration is, i think. they just want it to stop. that's simply where they are. and i think that's quite appalling because they should be on israel's side to crush hezbollah, to crush hamas, to crush the houthis, and do that with our assistance as much as possible, to set iran back for years to come and remove them as the dominant aggressive force in the region. israel will likely seize an opportunity here in the future, not too far away, to deal with iran's nuclear enterprise. they have had some success through covert espionage operations, setting it back a year ago. they'll likely do that again. don't expect the united states to be involved in anything like that in the near future. i go back to my premise.

they just want the war to stop. they will take the status quo. as unfortunate as that is and how adverse that would be for the israelis. >> bill: general, two things. kushner was active on social media over the weekend involved in the abraham accords. he agrees. iran is fully exposed. the reason why the nuclear facilities haven't been destroyed is because hezbollah has been a loaded gun pointed at israel. the right move for america will be to tell israel to finish the job. it is long overdue. a year ago yesterday, jake sullivan said this about the middle east. >> the middle east region is quieter today than it has been in two decades. the amount of time that i have to spend on crisis and conflict in the middle east today compared to any of my predecessors going back to 9/11 is significantly reduced. >> that was on october 7th and on and on. quick response on that. >> well, when he said that,

iranian-backed proxies in irrelevant rack and in syria had already attacked the united states forces 125 times prior to october 7th, 175 times since that time. that's how appalling and misrepresentation of the facts are and had been to the american people. they have had this dead wrong. this hands-off approach for iran is getting us nowhere. they're not going to do much of anything. they could easily take the houthis off the board by taking out iran's spy ship helping them target. taking down the navy helping them transport missiles and rockets. we're doing nothing. the houthis have locked down the suez canal backed by iran for months. they have fired at u.s. navy warships using missiles. what are we doing? nothing. it's appalling we aren't stepping up here. >> bill: we'll lean on you throughout the week. jack keane, thanks for coming on. >> good talking to you.

>> how dangerous is this for americans? >> you have that and then you have hundreds of thousands that have been in prison for the worst crimes and you have the gang members, all of the gang members from all countries all over the world. this kamala doesn't know what she is doing. >> bill: new disturbing data on the border crisis. what it reveals about the number of criminal migrants roaming the country and how dhs is responding. >> dana: chemical fire prompting evacuations in georgia. >> bill: tomorrow is the day tens of thousands of port workers are set to go on strike. the potential economic impact only 36 days from an election? stay tuned. >> dana: if that, 35. and if you've made the deployments and you've been the wife at home, or you've been the spouse at home, you understand what i'm talking about. your spouse has earned the right to apply for a va home loan.

to survive. announcer: let's cure childhood cancer together. please donate now.

>> bill: now just talking to jack keen about so many issues in the middle east. the u.s. department of state antony blinken was talking about hezbollah, the killing of nasrallah and what comes next. play this clip for you just a moment ago in d.c. >> hassan nasrallah was a brutal terrorist whose many victims included americans, israelis, civilians in lebanon, civilians in syria, and many others as well. during his leadership of hezbollah, the group terrorized people across the region and prevented lebanon from fully moving forward as a country. the united states will continue to work with our partners in the region and around the world to advance diplomatic resolution that provides real security to israel, to lebanon and allows citizens on both sides of the border to return to their homes. we likewise will continue working to secure a cease-fire deal in gaza that brings the

hostages home. >> bill: nasrallah has run the organization back to the early 90s. 1992. and he is exactly right about how much he has messed with the united states and messed with israel and made really a controlling power in the middle east. but the israelis continue to take out leaders one-by-one. you can watch it. sometimes it's hour by hour and so now you wait to see what the next move is. in so many ways, dana, the next move comes from iran. >> dana: i was telling a friend this weekend being a spokesperson to hezbollah and oh, also him and oh, yes, now him. you have to wonder if they're next. >> bill: remember what jack keane said a month ago? israel has every aspect of iran wired and now we know clearly that they have the same in the country of lebanon. all right, live in beirut. back in a moment. meantime let's come back home here. >> dana: border security is

still front and center in the race for the white house with vice president harris visiting arizona last friday. there is also a new report from ice about the number of illegal immigrants with criminal records here in the united states. marc thiessen is a former speech writer for former president bush and he has a what the hell podcast that i love. the numbers came out from dhs. a letter saying how many criminals are roaming around. the numbers were staggering. dhs said this. the data in the letter is being misinterpreted. it goes back decades. it includes individuals who entered the country over the past 40 years or more. the vast majority of those custody determination was made long before this administration and many under the jurisdiction and currently incarcerated by local, state law enforcement partners. kamala harris on friday at the border call for number four. this is what she said here. >> there are consequential issues at stake in this

election. and one is the security of our border. the united states is a sovereign nation. and i believe we have a duty to set rules at our border and to enforce them. and i take that responsibility very seriously. we are also a nation of immigrants. >> dana: i will ask the roll room to put up while you're speaking call for number two. show the dramatic numbers of how many non-detained are in the united states. you talked to president trump last week and your interview just posted this morning. how would he think about this? >> well, about this? he is shocked, as i would be. i am as well. 435,000 -- 436,000. most of those contrary to what ice is saying this is the current ice docket. they haven't been on the ice docket for 40 years. most of these are out on the street roaming around. how do we know that? in the same letter ice points out that they have a total of

41,500 detention beds. that's it for 435,000 people. so most of these people are on the streets. the biden-harris administration in 2022 tried to cut ice detention beds down to 25,000. they were stopped by congressional republicans. kamala harris when she campaigned in 2019 campaigned on a promise to reduce ice detention by 50%. so we've got hundreds of thousands of criminals, rapists, murderers, sex traffickers coming into our country and they want to cut the number of detention beds so the people are out roaming around. it's an intentional policy of putting criminals and murderers on the streets. >> dana: marc, you make the point that this is a crisis of choice. and the voters are going to have a choice in 35 or 36 days. debate on how many days it is. president trump told you what about the choice when it comes to the border? >> the choice is very clear. he had a secure border when he

was president and you have an open border now. what he told me which was interesting, which doesn't get a lot of attention because of incredible stories by this. he is a big supporter of legal immigration. i asked him point blank do you think immigrants make america better and he said they do and we are need people. he wants to bring in more people but legally. he has a proposal that nobody has paid any attention to where he would give a permanent green card to every foreign student who comes to a u.s. university and graduates from a u.s. university or two-year community college. a million people in this country every year from 210 different countries and territories. he wants to give every one of them, if they graduate, permanent residency. a huge step towards legal immigration. every maga supporter supports legal immigration. i asked him he is the son of his immigrants. if it wasn't for our policy of legal immigration we wouldn't

have donald trump. >> dana: you will will be my guest on perino on politics later today. >> bill: 27 past. so many states hit hard by helene. tennessee, south carolina, this is asheville, north carolina, a community that has been changed overnight. rescue efforts underway there. so many americans stepping up. bethany is one of them and will join us live as we continue on this busy monday morning.

>> dana: an official struggling to deliver aide to people from helene. many people are stranded without power or cell service. robert wray is in asheville, north carolina that has a report to bring to us now. good morning. >> good morning, dana. to everyone watching right now, this is asheville. this is the arts district. a beautiful place.

not supposed to be debris pushed in by torrential rains nearly three feet of rain falling in the after math of hurricane helene that impacts began on friday morning. we just have confirmation, unfortunately and sorry to have to report this. 100 people have lost their lives across states because of this catastrophic event. as i walk through the mud that is receding. the water is receding. what is going on here in western carolina is simply a mess. what i mean by that is we have communication issues, we have people that are still missing, likely most of those people are missing because they cannot get any sort of data, cell phone service to let loved ones know that they are okay. that is why search and rescue continues all across this region. in asheville, where i'm at, cell phone service has made a rebound this morning thankfully. at&t and verizon.

at&t the strongest at this point. power outages persist. food and water is a significant problem all morning. we're listening to what people have gone through the past 72 hours. let's listen to one woman explain to me some of the challenges. >> i have a studio, north heights studio, one of the few that is saved but all my colleagues lost everything. >> what was it like? were you prepared for this kind? >> no, i came from florida after hurricane ian. i thought this is the area to be safe and this is not safe. >> even though the forecast called for this much rain were you expecting this impact? >> not at all. i had no clue. >> search and rescue continues, over 5,000 national guard have been deployed over multiple states. 2 million customers are without power across multiple states and

this is a very fluid situation still as aid needs to get into these areas and the people that have lost communications that cannot get in touch with loved ones, they need that cell phone service. this saga continues, unfortunately. dana. >> dana: thank you for the update. >> bill: bethany frankel is a podcast hopes and her group is the be strong initiative partnering with global empowerment mission known as gem. we have pictures of gem trucks in asheville, north carolina. what do you want our audience to know and understand right now being that it's monday and day four of this? >> okay. so because there have been so many disasters they are not reported on as much as they used to be during times of hurricane maria and harvey. this is as you sold, 100 lives lost so far. it is a catastrophe. we are air dropping aid right now in the blue ridge mountain areas. people have been asked me on social media if we're helping in

asheville, north carolina and surrounding areas. we have a base camp attashville, north carolina and established one in perry, florida. we have a warehouse in dural filled with aid you can imagine. everything you can imagine. all of it year round. those trucks that are in your video will be filled with aid and constantly replenishing. we were the first semi truck of humanitarian aid to the asheville, north carolina area. we served 2,000 residents in the first four hours. and from the perry base camp we have served 4,000 and counting community residents who have been affected. so we are nimble, we are efficient and lean and quick. that's what we do. the money that's raised at be strong is for cash cards. these communities have taken a beatdown and they will need to

rebuild. people want the dignity to buy the diapers and sizes they want. the formula that they want, the pet food they want. our motto is crisis kits. we have pet crisis kits and human crisis kits. it's rice and beans and toil ott tree, socks, emergency materials. rebuild materials and not quite emergency in the first phase materials. we go through this in phases towards rebuild. >> bill: perry, florida is where it hit landfall and that elbow section of the panhandle of florida. you have 25 dead in south carolina. a a lot of people say don't forget about eastern tennessee hard hit as well. the need is enormous. good stuff. i'm glad you are out there and get the message out and hope to bring you more success for the gem operation in asheville. thanks for coming on. >> thank you so much. have a great day. >> dana: coming up controversy

over election deepfakes. why free speech advocates are fighting a new california law. that's next. absolutely. at newday usa, that's what we're doing. we put our arm around the veterans. when i think of the veteran out there that needs to refi his home, he may want to purchase and we can help them and provide that financial solution for them and their families. it's a great, rewarding feeling. everybody in the company, they have that deference and that respect and that love for the veteran that makes this company so unique. here's an important benefit for veteran homeowners who need cash. you can take out $70,000 or more with the newday 100 va cash out loan. with home values still close to all-time highs, now's the time to turn your home equity into cash. rates on credit cards and car loans have skyrocketed. pay off those high rate cards and costly car and truck loans and save hundreds of dollars a month, thousands a year. need cash? call newday usa.

>> bill: 18 now before the hour. looking at election deepfakes are sparking controversies over free speech. california banned the practice

about a week ago after a parody video using vice president harris's voice went viral. the creator is now suing the state. where does it all come down in the end? hello to you. >> good morning, bill. he is also accusing governor newsom of election interference for censoring that video. viewed more than 180 million times but illegal here and under scrutiny in 22 other states that regulate a.i. in election material. >> we choose something different. >> this video helped launch the harris campaign. within hours chris coles, who goes by the name mr. reagan, created his own version replacing harris voice with one generated by a.i. that sounds just like her. in his video, the a.i. voice mocks her policies and says any criticism of harris is sexist and racist.

he labeled it is parody. musk reposted the video without the disclaimer prompting an angry governor newsom saying manipulating a voice should be illegal. >> they were just fake and deeply damaging. >> last week he signed three bills making it illegal to post political deepfakes near election time. >> i could care less if it was harris or trump it was wrong on every level. >> he calls it protected speech and sued the state. >> it is partisan and political and it rises to the level of election interference. >> california is one of 23 states regulating a.i. content. most require online platforms to remove such videos or prominently label them as digitally altered. >> the law is definitely overbroad. >> in california, the state can force companies like x, tiktok or youtube to censor anyone who uses a.i. to create, quote,

deceptive content or disinformation that could harm a candidate's reputation. >> this is citizen commentary about elected officials and people running for election. that's the censor of the first amendment. >> now coles asked a federal court to invalidate the law. the hearing is scheduled for today. as for the election interference claim the governor's office declined comment. >> bill: thanks, william la jeunesse. we'll track it from los angeles. thank you. >> dana: we're hours away from could be a crippling strike. the contract covering 45,000 port workers on the east and gulf coasts expires at 11:59 tonight. those workers say if they don't negotiate is raise by then they're walking off the job. salvatore is one of the largest custom brokers and freight forwarders in the united states. this is on your mind. call for number one. you can see where this costing up to $5 billion a day. look at all those possible

ports. it gives you heartburn . call for two, the products and services impacted. basically everything. medical equipment, chemicals, vehicles, machinery including electric machinery which if you are in the southeast right now you don't want any slowdown on that. what do you think will happen? >> what i think will happen. there will be a strike. i'm 99% sure actually. in addition, already some of the terminals are going to start closing at 2:00 today for us we've been working all weekend getting goods out of the terminals. effectively in my opinion the strike started today even though it didn't start until tomorrow officially. >> bill: 99% sure. >> yes. >> bill: how would we as americans see and notice first? >> produce. produce a lot of it comes through the east coast. it is not like they can reroute it to another port. cold storage facilities are there. i wouldn't want to get everyone

in a melee that there won't be holiday or christmas goods. most of the companies and large corporations front loaded. that means they bought the goods earlier in the summertime and built up inventories. this will impact industrial bulk goods, steel and that nature. this is just opening an opening for the fast fashion online marketplaces overseas where if you don't have something in stock you can look for an alternative you can get something from three to five days direct from china. it will only help the chinese economy. >> dana: president biden said he will not weigh in. >> mr. president, would you intervene in a stock workers strike if they go in strike on tuesday? >> president biden: no. >> why not? >> president biden: its collective bargaining. taft hardly. >> dana: do you think he should weigh in? >> what he says and does are two separate things.

he is not running for election. another story. i don't think he will invoke the taft hartley. he will have to work behind the scenes. always pro-union. the thing about taft hartley. even if they invoked it, the union president has clearly said well, you know what? i'll follow the letter of the law to having the men go back to work but instead of doing 30 containers we'll do five. the same thing as if we sent a child to their room because they had their behavior and said clean up your room they would do one-by-one and not get done for seven hours. that's not the spirit of the deal. it should be changed. >> bill: 36 ports, massive deal if it happens this afternoon. what would make the union happy? with boeing they wanted a raise of 35%. they aren't there yet. what would make this union happy? >> this union wants 70%, more than the l.a. counterparts. the big thing. even if you gave them the 70%, the u.s. is in the bottom court
