>> emily: happening now, the united nations is holding an emergency security council meeting after iran launched its largest missile strike ever against israel. and israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu is dying the iranian regime will "pay for it." hello, everyone. this is "outnumbered." i'm emily compagno here with my cohosts, kayleigh mcenany and harris faulkner, and also joining us today, former state department spokesperson under president obama and fox news contributor, marie harf, and fox & friends cohost, host of the brian kilmeade radio show, and host of "one nation with brian kilmeade," brian kilmeade. israel is bowing to hit iran back over the massive barrage of nearly 200 missiles they unleashed yesterday. meanwhile, israeli defense forces are continuing their bombardment of the iranian-bacteria group, hezbollah, and seven lebanon. our trey yingst is on the ground in northern israel at the very latest.
9:02 am
trey? >> hey, guys. good morning. we do have an update for you from the israeli military who says during fighting against hezbollah today in southern lebanon, eight israeli soldiers were killed. we know five of them were from the commando unit. they were in a firefight with hezbollah operatives inside of a village. they were ambushed and ultimately not only were five from the unit killed, but also a number wounded. two reconnaissance soldiers also killed, and a combat medic. this is the deadliest day for israeli forces in lebanon, and as we look forward, this will certainly change the psyche of the israeli people as it relates to the ongoing ground operation against hezbollah. we also have an image of israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu meeting with top officials today. you can see he's not wearing a suit and tie. this comes just hours after that ballistic missile attack. as the israelis assess the damage to that massive attack from iran overnight, 180 missiles soared through the
9:03 am
skies of this country, some of them intercepted, others impacting the ground below. israel's advanced missile defense system working to take down much of the fire, but video circulating online shows significant impacts and craters caused by the missiles. one palestinian man was killed in the west bank and two israelis injured. the iranian say they used hypersonic missiles and we are responding to the killing of hezbollah leader hassan nasrallah and the hamas leader. the security cabinet gathered to discuss what the israeli response would be to this attack. reports to indicate it will be significant. the missile attack comes as iran backed hezbollah launched more than 100 rockets into israel today, and while the israelis continue to target the lebanese capital of beirut with air strikes. we are also following that other security incident out of tel aviv yesterday. seven people killed in a shooting there, and the police say that these attackers came from the west bank. clearly many friends at the same time, quite active for the israelis as they try to determine how they will respond
9:04 am
to that missile attack overnight. guys? >> emily: trey, thank you, and stay safe. we are now learning more about the united states' role in defending israel against iran's strike. president biden says he ordered our military to help shoot down those iranian missiles. jennifer griffin is live at the pentagon with more on the military's response. jennifer? >> emily, we have just received the first video from the u.s. navy, and it shows the uss bulkley firing its aegis interceptors to hit the incoming iranian ballistic missiles. the pentagon is still assessing how many of iran's ballistic missiles were shot down by the dozen interceptor missiles fired from two of its guided missile destroyers in the eastern mediterranean. the uss cole in the uss bulkley. the uss navy employed this ballistic missile defense system to shoot down some of the incoming missiles, we have
9:05 am
learned. defense secretary lloyd austin spoke multiple times to his israeli counterpart yesterday. he issued the following statement. "we condemn this outrageous act of aggression by iran, and we call on iran to halt any further attacks, including from its proxy terrorist groups. we will never hesitate to protect our forces and interests in the middle east and to support the defense of israel and our partners in the region." a message echoed by president biden. speak of the attack appears to have been defeated, and ineffective. and this is testament to israeli military capability and u.s. military. make no mistake, the united states is fully, fully, fully supportive of israel. >> the pentagon saw signs that iran was preparing for a ballistic missile attack when it began moving missile launchers following the killing of hezbollah leader hassan nasrallah last friday. all of the nearly 200 ballistic missiles were fired from iranian territory, none by hezbollah or the houthis.
9:06 am
>> it's something we've been monitoring. certainly this was a significant attack, probably about twice the size in terms of scope of what we saw earlier. >> the state department said the u.s. was not given a heads up in advance by iran. a u.s. official tells fox news iran has been at a state of readiness to launch an attack on inisrael since early august , following the july 31st assassination of the hamas leader in tehran. the question now is what comes next. >> emily: jennifer griffin, thank you. marie harf, it's been a few years since you are at the state department, yet it's gone by like that. tell us what americans need to know in your assessment of the current situation. >> marie: and we are still facing many of the same threats. if you think about the fact that monday is the one-year anniversary since the october 7th terrorist attack from hamas, and in that year israel has been able to take a lot of the hamas leadership off
9:07 am
the battlefield, has below leadership, these are men who were responsible for israeli deaths, american deaths, the deaths of many palestinians, by the way, as well. iran is really embarrassed right now, their proxies are under a lot of strain because of israeli intelligence, israeli military operations. when you look at the map of all the u.s. military assets in the region, and the intelligence i know we are giving the israelis to go after these terrorist organizations, iran has a choice to make, as does israel. they had a leader of hamas killed in tehran. their top proxy, hassan nasrallah, killed by an israeli strike. we saw them yesterday go after israel with more than they ever had before, but it didn't do a lot of damage, and that israel has a choice about how to respond, and there's lots of people saying this is the time
9:08 am
to strike iran, and i hear a lot of echoes of the lead up to the iraq war. like, it would not have attentive secondary impacts, it would be easy, we can just strike there ballistic missile facilities, we can to strike their nuclear facilities. and that's a very dangerous game to play. so i think israel right now is trying to figure out h how to continue degrading these terrorist organizations, how to punish iran, but i don't think israel wants to either push iran to really raced toward a nuclear weapon, which they can do now that they are not part of the iran deal, or to really have an all-out war. i don't think the israelis want that. the israeli people certainly don't. israeli generals down. so how do you strike that balance? i think that's a question for the israelis right now. >> emily: and great point, kill need, that the islamic republic had frankly declared a war on israel forever, and it is the iranians and the people who are wanting to be in peace and wanting to further the economic interest. so the question is, is a messaging enough from our administration to show support
9:09 am
for israel so they are not alone and they do not feel alone? >> brian: absolutely not. we've got their back, you have a right to defend yourself, we hear the rhetoric. what about the action? we are giving them arms, that's been in place since harry truman backed up israel as a nation, but the arms are they are, they are slowing down, they deftly slowed down the 2,000-pound bombs and some of the munitions. that may have picked up, i asked the brain room before we got here. this is all about restrictions. president zelenskyy is begging. thanks for the weapons, can i use them? russia who invaded us. i think we got to hit these guys back. last time they got restrained. take the win, joe biden said. this time they have to go for the nuclear weapons, because they showed already that iran cannot be trusted. they already had them with ballistic missiles. how can they possibly leave that nuclear program intact? and they should take out the oil refineries at the same time. this is a remarkably unpopular government with its own people. this is a unique window of opportunity. we have to back them. that same government killed
9:10 am
three of our guys through the militias in syria. the same government, houthi rebels shelling us in the red sea. we have to knock these rockets out of the sky. we have every reason to not only back then, maybe contribute to an offensive in iran. >> emily: kayleigh, as an integral part of the trump administration messaging, are we at that point where indeed israel can finally succeed in eradicating all of these proxies of the islamic regime? >> kayleigh: i hope so, but not with the tepid support from the biden administration. 181 ballistic missiles rained down yesterday. the largest ballistic missile attack in history. 10 million people had to run for cover. that's like all of new york city having to find a bomb shelter. that's the equivalent. and the message from biden on monday, when he was asked about a limited incursion into lebanon, 60,000 israelis can go back to their home, he said we need a cease-fire. yesterday the message changed to, we fully, fully support
9:11 am
israel. but here we are today. u.n. ambassador linda smith greenfield is at the event. she said we fully, fully support israel, and then immediately goes to "we need a cease-fire." no. the answer is allow israel to defend its borders after the largest ballistic missile strike in history, period, end of story, drop the cease-fire language. 1200 individuals killed october 7th. still more than 100 hostages, babies, in the hands of hamas. i'm tired of the cease-fire language. drop it, united states. the u.n. has set a pretty low bar the world stage. let's at least manage to hop over that bar that is on the floor. >> harris: you are absolutely right about that. and he wants to take a lecture about how to protect a border from this administration? we are facing one of the worst situations we have ever seen in this country. and yes, we have seen a decrease in the number of people coming across the border, but the deadliness of fentanyl is still there. i thought that was interesting, marie, that they are embarrassed right now.
9:12 am
the only person they managed to kill with all that targeting was a palestinian. >> emily: that's right. >> harris: so they are embarrassed, and they are being taken to task from the areas around them, wanting to know exactly how that happens. so they are more than embarrassed, they are ineffective. but they have drawn the line for us to see the connection points. when hamas and hezbollah are under stress by israel, iran hits. that means they are all in it together. so now i completely understand why israel did what we don't have the intestinal fortitude to do. they went after the houthis in yemen because they are the next proxies of iran, and it is clear as day that iran has a fatwa out on us and israel, so they are going to hit us, do what they need, and try to use other people. and my goodness, they will kill a palestinian in the way. >> brian: remember, they hacked the trump campaign and they are trying to kill him, to the point where they have already altered how the former president is traveling and they
9:13 am
already stopped him after a rally in wisconsin. >> harris: all of it comes together and it becomes so clear who the enemy is. but to take a lecture on how israel should protect itself from bordering countries, that is more than rich. that would be stupid to listen to this country. with this administration, on how to protect your border, israel, do what you've got to do. >> emily: our prayers and support remain with israel and all those innocent people under the thumb of the islamic republic. hurricane helene is now the second deadliest hurricane on u.s. mainland and half a century. a live report from the devastated area of north carolina where residents are still grappling with the aftermath. stay with us. lord, you know what's on our hearts. you know where we struggle. you know where we need to be pushed. help us give it all to you. the good, the bad. help us turn to you in everything.

9:18 am
>> harris: so president biden is on the move today. he's going to head to the near war zone conditions and are southeast. he's going to south carolina. the storm hit, hurricane helene, last thursday, so now nearly a week later he will go. he's going to reportedly survey the devastation brought on by his lien and the death toll now across six states is that at least 166 people killed. helene is now the second deadliest hurricane to hit u.s. mainland in a half century, the most deadly hurricane katrina. steve harrigan is live for us. just about 35 miles outside of asheville, north carolina, where those epic, epic pictures of the impact they have been seen. steve? >> harris, a lot of the smaller towns aren't getting much attention. asheville is getting all the press, but things are remarkably bad here. there is an all-volunteer fight going on, friends and people who live here, to try to connect one side and connect them across the
9:19 am
river to the other side. that's really been a battle. he said the death toll is higher than 160, and that is likely to keep going up. people say it should have been much higher because areas are still so cut off. it's really people checking on neighbors by foot or by bicycle going door-to-door, and people here tell us things have gotten so rough they are sharing water with each other. >> we are sharing food, and water is now becoming available, but a lot of us have water on hand and we are sharing as needed, and for flushing toilets we are going down the street to the spring and collecting rainwater that comes. >> people hungry here, too, for information. they ask us what's going on and when it's going to get better. they are using handheld radios to try and find out. many here are aware that the president will be flying over some of the worst hit areas this afternoon. harris? >> harris: you got in there and i know the president isn't
9:20 am
as physically capable as you are, but it would be interesting if some more people could actually get into that area. and military could definitely a lift something into that area. we do it all over the world. steve harrigan, thank you. brian, i'm sure people can hear this tone in my voice. it was last thursday. >> brian: it's crazy. not only that -- okay, and they beat hurricane was not a surprise to anyone. it looks like florida is expected to be hit hardest they are, and maybe no one in north carolina in the mountains thought it was going to be water victims. and maybe they made poor decisions having said that. having not been able to identify the problem, i was just on the radio and i took a ton of calls today. and people called me from the surrounding areas saying there's five or six small towns outside of asheville, which he just talked about. totally ignored. and they have not heard anything from the governor. they are now communicating through the handheld or the ham
9:21 am
radios, so there's a huge problem. if anybody should know optics, wouldn't it be someone who's been in politics for 50 years? why would even think about leaving them -- is it that bad of a place to spend the weekend there? so just be an headquarters and show you are engaged. throw on a windbreaker. >> harris: that is so interesting, what you're saying. i thought of it this way, to further what brian is saying. what younger person other than the 81-year-old man could go to this and maybe cross bridge connect because she is a year younger than i am and i know i o it. and go to some of these areas. that bully pulpit. but my gosh, grab a gallon of something and take it with you and be part of the dash oh, you mean the vice president who still technically has a job? by the way, she's going to georgia today. i hope she pops by the port that shut down because of the strike. lots of picketers. do a good deed today and help. >> kayleigh: a lot of problems under biden-harris watch.
9:22 am
did we expect anything different? biden left the white house during the fall afghanistan and had to go to camp david from delaware and finally got back to the white house. fema, we saw kamala harris there on monday. it's this big, long table. i've been there at the same briefings, and there is kamala harris at this briefing. the sign behind her said helping people before, during, and after disaster. i got to thinking about that. before, governor desantis said yes, i got everything i needed from biden. kemp got a call from biden before they deployed resources. they get credit for that. but before, during, and after, biden wasn't delaware. kamala harris was at a fund-raiser. if i were advising her eye would have given her a call and say, get back here saturday morning, come from the border. i want to see you in fema headquarters and we are sending you to georgia once the damage has passed. we didn't see her before or during, we are just seeing her after. >> harris: we have kamala harris ignoring reporter
9:23 am
questions at the fema briefing. >> meadow vice president -- >> thank you. >> harris: unmatched by the moment, how would you describe it, emily? >> emily: horrifyingly inadequate, and under serving of every american, especially those who are suffering right now in those areas. for the fact of your point, brian, about the optics, the entire town, for example, of chimney rock, which the beloved "dirty dancing" was filmed in, and "the last of the mohicans," americans feel a personal investment there. how hard is it for our leadership to acknowledge the emotional impact all of this has when we see our fellow americans suffering like that? when we see them suffering in silence with no way out. you have heard me mention many times, saved our allies, on this
9:24 am
couch. they stood in the gap of administration errors in afghanistan when he left our allies behind. they are headquartered in north carolina. right now they are the military individuals that are there, boots on the ground, supplying and helping all of those americans who need our help. anyone depending on the federal government, it's for leadership and optics, but the actual boots on the ground helping this fellow americans that save our allies, that the united states veterans speeeighteen, and i hope you got it illegally are administered in sometime soon, but i'm not holding my breath. >> harris: this is a hero moment for the current administration. they can look at this and learn from the past when they were beating up on republicans who actually were not making some of the best decisions they should. we have learned this lesson already. both political parties. a hero moment would be, i'm calling up everything i've got to get some air lifts in the air. it doesn't take much as a commander in chief to command your troops. to help your fellow americans.
9:25 am
marie, i don't want to single you out as the only democrat and all of that, because you have held people in harm's way. you've been at the state department. you know what it's like to be an american and need the help of the united states. you know. >> marie: and commit to be fair, that's what they doing. >> harris: i haven't seen anything that looks like our capability. >> marie: let me give you some of the numbers and statistics. 4800 federal employees they have already surged down before, have been there since, helping on the ground. the president ordered a thousand national guard, he brought up the national guard from all different branches to do airlift's, to get food to people, to get help to people. they are surging resources, and when you hear from some of these republican governors who say we do have what we need, we have heard from president biden, and one of the challenges that we all know -- >> harris: who said they have what they need? which republican governor has said that? >> marie: ron desantis has said very positive things, harris. what i will say is getting a
9:26 am
president and the security and the communications into places that have nothing is very -- we hear from people on the ground. >> harris: our crew got there. >> marie: our crew doesn't have 25 secret service trucks that have to come with them. >> harris: we can drop from the air. >> marie: you guys are complaining they haven't been down there yet. we hear from sheriffs and local officials on the ground who say please don't come yet because we will have to divert emergency resources. >> harris: i'm not sending people in. they need resources. >> marie: today and tomorrow they are going to visit four states. >> harris: and what are they doing, taking supplies with them? >> marie: yes, and hearing from people on the ground about what they need, but they have the federal government down there right now helping. to say they don't, i'm telling you -- >> harris: i didn't say they weren't there, i'm saying it's not enough. >> brian: it's been real slow. >> marie: it's hard to get to these places, brian. >> brian: these people need help and then not getting anything from fema. meanwhile trump has raised $3.9 million on his gofundme.
9:27 am
>> harris: okay, we've got to go. families affected by the hurricane urgently need support. help the american red cross provide meals and shelter to these families. donate now to hurricane helene by going to redcross.org/foxforward. we get into it every day here, that the point of all of this is it is not enough yet. it's going to take everybody. it is day 2 of the port strike. so he is more pressure on those helene victims and the rest of the country, too. it is no agreement in sight. they are pretty far apart on some parts of what they want, the union and the corporations. the impact that it's already having on our economy, next. become more about culture warss and less about well, business? some companies today bring politics into the boardroom, then into our living rooms. that's why i use spotlight reports from 1792 exchange. here, i can search more than 2,000 companies, to see if they care more about divisive social issues than about running a sound business.

9:32 am
perishables like fresh fruit are likely to be the first goods to come into short supply, and that could quickly expand with the strike even threatening to reignite inflation. bryan llenas is at the redhook terminal in brooklyn, new york, with the latest. bryan? >> emily, good afternoon. since this morning, a few dozen union workers have been picketing outside the brooklyn tournament of the port of new york and new jersey. the ila, or the international longshoremen's association union, has banned their workers from speaking to the press, so they are letting their signs do most of the talking here. they are calling for higher wages and no automation at the ports. we also see workers that are picketing right now across the harbor in newark today. the union rejecting the latest offer by shipping and port operators to boost their wages by 50% while tripling retirement benefits. the ila says it falls far short of their demands, which includes
9:33 am
a total commitment to zero automation or robot usage at ports. here's what one union leader told me this morning. >> it's going to take good jobs away from good people, and automation will not circulate u.s. money around the country. we are tired of foreign companies coming in and dictating what they do in our ports. we are against automation. we made that loud and clear. no automation, no contract. speak of the current topline base pay for a longshoreman's $39 an hour, about $81,000 a year. with over time it is said about a third of the dockworkers in new york can make about $200,000. the union is demanding a 77% raise to $69 an hour, about $143,000 a year. the ila union leader, harold daggett, hi's about $728,000 a year, nine times more than his union workers, says this strike will go for as long as necessary, noting that shipping companies have made hundreds of
9:34 am
billions of dollars since the pandemic and record profits. as each day goes by, guys, more and more ships arriving in the u.s. are being forced to idle outside of our ports with hundreds of thousands of containers of goods was nowhere to go. republican speaker of the house mike johnson is blaming president biden. >> we need to ensure that these parties stay at the table and negotiate in good faith and get to the end of this thing. they have had this sort of hands-off approach, and that weakness is going to exacerbate the problem. donald trump had pointed out the last couple of days, this is a direct result, one more direct result of bidenomics, inflation. these dockworkers and port workers feel like they can't feed their families. everyone in america feels that way. >> now, in a statement, president biden is putting the pressure on the operators, emily, saying it's time they make a fair offer to the 45,000 workers across 36 ports on the
9:35 am
east coast and the gulf coast. >> emily: bryan, quick follow-up -- how soon can the consumers, we, start to feel the effects of the strike? >> it really depends on the timing. if it lasts a few days, experts and retailers say they have been planning for this strike for months, so they've already shipped many of these goods ahead of time, so the holiday shopping, for instance, should not be affected. and essential goods, for instance, here in new york, according to the governor, should not disappear. but if this goes longer, weeks if not months, we could be talking about higher prices and empty shelves. one expert, emily, says one day of this strike is equal to about 4-6 days of delays with shi shipping. emily? >> bryan, thank you as always. you and i were talking before the show about the tension between progress and honoring union contracts. talk to me about your thoughts on this. >> brian: a couple of things. i have heard of holding back
9:36 am
progress, automation. there's other things called other countries of ports that are more progressive. the european union is not going to have to sit back and say, we can't make things quicker and better. i have nothing against the human workforce, but there's other things that happen with automation that brings in other opportunities. the everything, when comes to ships, you have record profit and record risk. you have the open seas, they are out there forever. see have to pay her crew more. everything is relevant. i just think overall it is hard to jump into contract negotiations right away, but to let it get to this point, gina raimondo and the president of the united states, just seeing the election straight ahead, imagine if this strike isn't solved. can you imagine the whole eastern seaboard is shut down? you know what that will do to our economy. how can they be that disengaged? >> emily: what a great point. harris, americans are worried. to kilmeade's point, whereas union joe been all these months? it's not for the suppliers to
9:37 am
plan ahead. what about our president? >> harris: i happen to think there's a conversation going on between union joe biden and the large union boss that we keep seeing, daggett. because two sides of the mouth with this issue for him. they want to press and press and get what they want, but they don't really hear much from the president. i refuse to believe they're not talking to each other, and the politics are such, at least that's been reported, where daggett stands in that regard. it would be with biden. so i had a lot of questions about that. is it a symbiotic relationship? are they going to solve the problem right before the election? is not going to be october surprise? meanwhile we all suffer. anywhere from $2.1 billion to $5 billion today discuss our economy. jpmorgan puts it at $5 billion, others less than that. but anything above $2.1 billion. you're taking a look at that support in savannah, georgia, i was telling you about, and you see others picketers. why does that matter? things are choked at this point,
9:38 am
and these companies knew enough to get some stuff on shore before things hit. if you are in a storm zone, that stuff is likely not going to be good. you can't get it to the people. that's one example. the other example is medicine is caught up in this. you've heard joe biden brag about the cost of diabetes medication going down. a lot of it is coming from china. this is a huge billboard for, let's just make our own stuff. >> emily: and covid underscored for us, marie, the fragility of the supply chains, how quickly things can be so disrupted and how quickly americans can suffer. and here it was seemingly predicable problem with an absentee president. >> marie: i don't think he's been an absentee president. he jokingly called him union joe, but i imagine there are quiet conversations going on in the background. he's the first american president to stand on the picket line, for example, with a union. so he think he's proud of his union record, and donald trump has said he wants to break up some unions. so i think on the union issue he feels very comfortable.
9:39 am
but i agree, the disruption not just for average consumers but for the hurricane recovery, it is not -- >> harris: look at all those people who could be somewhere else helping. >> marie: i hope they can come to an agreement where the workers get fair pay and the american people don't have to suffer. >> kayleigh: we are short on time. just one sentence. joe biden should pick up "the art of the deal" by donald tr trump. read it today, joe. >> emily: coming up, the u.n. security council just held an emergency meeting after iran's attack on israel. israel's ambassador to the united nations joins us with his reaction, next. veteran homeowners, car payments are getting out of control. get a newday 100 va cash out loan at lower mortgage rates to pay off those high rate car loans.

united nations security council just met on iran's unprecedented attack against israel, and joining us now is israel's investor to the united nations, danny danon, who is at that meeting. while you were speaking, in this meeting, we heard from commander-in-chief, president biden, at joint base andrews on this conflict. let's listen. >> can you tell us anything about iran and israel's possible retaliation? >> i called a meeting of the g7 today. we are working on a joint statement all of us agree on, from japan to france to germany. what we are doing in that regard is making it clear that things have to be done. and it's obviously -- iran has gone way off course. we are going to put together a joint statement. it hasn't been done yet. it'll be done by the time we land. and there's going to be some

sanctions imposed on iran. >> kayleigh: ambassador, president biden previously said we must fully, fully support israel. do you feel you have the support of the united states this hour? >> what happened last night was unprecedented, the attack against people, 200 ballistic missiles. we will retaliate. we will not wait for anyone else. it'll be painful for iran, and the security council, told the iran ambassador, you will pay a price for what you did. i think it is important that the u.s. and other democracies will also impose sanctions against iran, because today they have so much money to spend on their proxies, and we feel the results. we are being attacked from all fronts, from lebanon, from gaza, from yemen, from a run, and it's an attack not only against israel, it is an attack against western civilizations. >> kayleigh: the united nations secretary general

made some really eyebrow-raising remarks. i want to play those. >> since october, exchanges of fire have expanded in scope, depth, and intensity. i stated that almost daily exchanges of fire by hezbollah and other groups in lebanon, and the israel defense forces, are in repeated violation of security council resolution 1701. >> kayleigh: and look at your face there. that is the head of the u.n. putting hezbollah on the same moral plateau as the idf, the day after -- and i want to play this for our viewers -- your israeli defense forces found a tunnel in hezbollah beneath a child's bedroom with a cache of weapons underneath and a plan to commit october 7th from the north. what do you think we knew hear the head of the u.n. equivocate your country to hezbollah?
9:47 am
>> that's shameful, and it's not the first time. since october 7th, the secretary general and other officials of the u.n., they make equivocation between aggressors and how we are defending ourselves. even last night, that attack from iran, the secretary general could even mention iran in his statement. he called for de-escalation. you have to speak all sides, playing the game. that is unacceptable. imagine during world war ii, if the allies spoke not to germany, the u.n. would have called for both sides to de-escalate. it was not in place back then, but it was formed exactly to avoid such scenarios. we see today, when you have a crisis, instead of spe defending itself, they asked the opposite. we are strong. tonight we are going to celebrate the jewish new year,

rosh hashanah. it's been a very tough year for us. we are in deep pain but we are strong, we are determined, and we will win. we will make sure iran will pay a price, and we have shown our capabilities already in gaza and in lebanon. >> kayleigh: has paid well, final question to you. it is pretty incredible. the largest bl ballistic missile attack in history and the terror attack that happened yesterday, that left a beautiful mother dead as she was shielding her 9-month-old. any indication as to who was behind that? >> yes, hamas took responsibility. we are still checking if there was coronation between hamas and iran. minutes after this massacre, the rockets flew into israel, so i think there was a connection, but we are looking into that. but you mentioned that story, we have other stories. seven israelis were massacred in the streets of tel aviv. that is painful, and we are
9:49 am
fighting on all fronts. israel is under attack, that we are strong, we are resilient, and we will win this war. we have no choice. >> kayleigh: i will tell you, my family prays every night for the release of those hostages and the safety of israel. thank you, ambassador. coming up, the takeaways from last night's vice presidential showdown. we will show it all to you, next. customize and sa— (balloon doug pops & deflates) and then i wake up. is limu with you in all your dreams? oh, yeah. only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty, liberty, liberty, liberty. ♪

>> president biden headed to north carolina today while his vice president goes to georgia. this, as complaints increase, not enough relief is getting through to those who need it most. we will have the latest. j.d. vance with a campaign appearance in michigan, following wet by most measures was a prevailing appearance at last nights debate. we will have his remarks for you. and the latest from the middle east as we expect israel will hit back hard against iran. i'm john roberts. sander is off today. come join gillian turner and me at the top of the hour for "america reports." we will see you soon. >> kayleigh: ohio senator j.d. vance and minnesota governor tim walz faced off in a wide-ranging presidential debate. there was a lot to discuss, and j.d. vance was, in many circles, the clear winner. even "the new york times," there was an op-ed, brian, acknowledging that they now see why he was selected as trump's
9:54 am
running mate. >> brian: right, i think j.d. vance helps the ticket and i think walz does not help harris. it reinforces some of the things people feel. not telling the true agenda, doesn't seem up for the job. likable, positive qualities, but i don't think people feel better about the ticket where i think people feel better about vance. >> kayleigh: harris, i have been pleading with the g.o.p. to please talk about vulnerable mothers during pregnancy, how we can support them. school shootings, school safety committees issues moms care deeply about. we finally heard that last night. j.d. vance laid it out. >> harris: he did. i thought he did a really good job about the transparency of where not only on the issues of abortion, but also just where the issues are for families. he said he and former president trump are really focused in a pro-family agenda. and i thought that was really helpful. i am fascinated that walz and kamala harris are not gifted at interviews so you don't see either one of them in that situation, 34 days out. >> kayleigh: 34 days out, and of course, marie, i'm going to ask you about tim walz admitting
9:55 am
he misspoke about being in tiananmen square, in hong kong at that time. he called himself a knucklehead. >> marie: he is like the high school football coach. we saw from focus groups that media organizations and some democratic groups did, they thought he looked much more normal and like someone they would no, and that j.d. vance looked like a very skilled politician and debater from yale, which he is. i think the most important point of the debate was the january 6th answer. when j.d. vance refused to say that joe biden had won the election, that was the moment where, for a lot of people on the fence, it was complete the unacceptable and disqualifying. >> kayleigh: we will see if any of it moves the needle. more "outnumbered" in just a moment. many of you have served our country honorably. one of the benefits that we as a country give you as a veteran is the eligibility for a va loan, for up to 100 percent of your home■s value. if you need cash for your family call newdayusa. with automatic authority from the va we can say yes when banks say no.

going to war on two fronts. hezbollah terrorists in lebanon, and of course they continue to knock a leadership in the hamas savages that invaded israel on october 7th. also in the next hour, vice presidential nominee j.d. vance will be at a campaign event in michigan. now this is just the first time we will see him since those kind of interesting moments which people are calling widely in the media and beyond a win for him at the vice presidential debate last night, so later today president biden and vice president kamala harris will go to hurricane hitting storm hit zones, biden in north carolina, kamala harris in georgia. a lot to get to there, no doubt. hopefully they can do some things that haven't been done yet. that storm hit last thursday. america reports will be all over it as they always are, so let's get there. thanks for watching. ♪ ♪
