>> andrea, that's exactly right.sident yesterday touting this airlift mission as an extraordinary success. they're getting out more than 124,000 americans and afghan allies and other nationals, but obviously, that's a source of criticism, as well because there are now 100 to 200 americans believed to still be in the country and you remember, president biden less than two weeks ago said that if there were americans still there the u.s. would stay until they got them all out. the u.s. had to leave, sticking to that deadline because it was safest to protect the american troops and to protect their prospect, the ability to get them out going forward. so how will they do it? the president's national security adviser saying among the items they're working on right now to execute those evacuations would be getting charter flights in there from other countries in the region and working with other countries in the region to allow for the ground passage or for others to get into the neighboring countries to get evacuated from

andrea. a lot of confusion over the last several days and this is highly contentious over the medical community. this advisory panel meeting set to issue a recommendation to the larger fda later on today. they're set to meet throughout really the afternoon until just before 5:00 according to their schedule, but a short time ago a representative from pfizer presented some findings and that representative said that over a five-month period the pfizer vaccine effectiveness does wane for everyone 16 and older from around 88% to as low as 47%, andrea. although there is stronger efficacy among 12 to 15-year-olds. according to pfizer their findings also suggest that after a five-month period the pfizer vaccine continues to be extremely effective about 88% or so at preventing hospitalization, but the israeli ministry of health study shows waning in this area as well. that's something we have been hearing for quite a while that these vaccines while there is some reduction in protection, overall, they

>>> and good day, everyone this is "andrea mitchell reports" in washington where the president's legacy is on the line with debates and votes this week on his megatrillion dollars proposals. right now the house is gathering into session as democrats face monumental challenges to keep the government open and break the stalemate between moderates and conservatives over passing that massive reconciliation and the infrastructure bills the critical power broker, of course, house speaker nancy pelosi testing her legendary prowess at brokering agreements to salvage another democratic president's agenda >> let me just say we're going to pass the bill this week i'm never bringing a bill to the floor that doesn't have the votes. you have to go when you have the votes in a reasonable time, and we will. >> we're also following new developments in the fight against the coronavirus. in the next hour, president biden will receive his pfizer booster shot as recipients of the moderna and johnson & johnson vaccine still eagerly await word on when their third shots will be available. >>> and the national

andrea? >> thanks so much, vaughn hilliard and let's go back to gabe gutierrez in manville, new jersey. gabe, pick it up. >> reporter: hi there, andrea. apologies for the technical issues and we are back here in manville and this home exploded after an apparent gas leak and we are here with the folks who lived here and have been kind enough to stay with us and speak with us. you guys were just here not too long ago, but you left before this house exploded. tell me what did you see? did it start raining here when you decided to leave? how quickly was the water rushing up? >> well, it started to rain pretty fast -- probably, what? around 6:00 or so? >> yeah. >> we left maybe 7:30, i think because we could see the floods started getting flooded and we were concerned because we have a baby and we wanted to get out. even driving from here to franklin township at 7:30, 8:00 the roads were bad. >> you made a decision to leave this house for one big reason? >> our baby. >> our baby. >> 4-month-old li

andrea? >> thanks so much, kelly.you've been talking to educators about the different issues because some of what kelly has just laid out is so controversial already in florida and the mask mandate debates there and the tragic law of teachers and principles ahead of the school year. >> andrea, 13 who died since beginning of the year in miami-dade which is the sixth largest school district. those are teachers and other staff that got sick from coronavirus and died. so it is very personal to folks here. they feel that they have investment and they understand that there is actually a push and pull in all of this. about 85% of the teachers in the miami-dade school district are vaccinated, but we still see people who are unvaccineated and people who get coronavirus and having to be hospitalized and we know it is the unvaccinated who are more likely to be hospitalized and it is the unvaccinated who are hospitalized and are most likely to die. i'm in broward county, across the state, republican ron desantis lost in court in

>> i don't know yet, andrea.hat i do know is that there were thousands that were left there after our withdrawal on august 31st. i've been very clear and i was very clear prior to the august 31st deadline that i thought we should have extended that deadline, that we should still have operations at the airport bringing those folks out because it is so much harder right now to do that than it was when we actually controlled the airport and had the logistics and military support to do it. so that was my preference. that obviously did not happen. so now it becomes about, you know, what is our plan to work with third countries? how are we going to ensure safe passage across the bordering countries? what are we going to do to search capacity at our missions at those countries to process those folks, and how are we engaging with the taliban to make sure they continue to provide safe passage to the airport or do provide safe passage to the airport and commercial flights out. so a lot of questions remain. >> pakistan is u

this is "andrea mitchell reports" in washington.sident biden speaking moments ago about tropical storm ida after the remnants that the storm brought deadly flooding to new york, new jersey and pennsylvania. the president will visit storm-ravaged louisiana where residents are still reeling and more than a million people without power after getting slammed by the storm earlier this week. these were the scenes last night. terrible scenes in new york and new jersey. 20 people have died after an entire month of rain fell in just a few short hour. the 105-year weather event flooded the new york subway system. drivers in the tri-state area were trapped from highways to side streets and they've suspended their service between washington and boston today for the entire day. new york governor hochul speaking earlier about the devastating impact. >> even the morning after we are still uncovering the true depth of the loss. the human loss, simply in their cars, in their homes and basements succumbed to the brutal ravages of a brutal storm. this

andrea? meaningful, thanks for sharing that with your wonderful guest there. >> joining me now two prominent new york city leaders were on 9/11 and in the months and years, and former nypd commissioner ray kelly who began his second tenure as commissioner just months after the attacks. tom van nessen, first, as we look back 20 years, take us through that day and how your department was impacted and how they reacted in the years after ward because there were more fire department personnel lost than any other department. >> thanks for having me, andrea and thanks for having me on with my old friend ray kelly who is a terrific, terrific guy. that lady you had on was so -- brought joy to the interview. when you think of the sadness that came from this event and i think of all of the work that ray and bloomberg did to cut through the politics and the anger and grief and everything to establish those memorials, i think they've just done a phenomenal job, but that day for us was a nightmare from the

andrea? >> molly hunter there at a critical crossing. joining me now is pentagon correspondent courtney kube and general mccaffrey. pakistan is the only exist strategy they've got. we don't believe that the russians are letting there be crossings and the continuous flow of crossings in the stands. china, similarly, another border. iran is not a great place for any americans to cross. upon there is no u.s. embassy support there, but in pakistan there has been some u.s. embassy help. >> the reality is there are two ways for people to get out of afghanistan. over land or via air. we've seen just in the last couple of days how difficult it is for air right now what woo these reports of americans and others who are sitting on the tarmac in mazar-e-sharif trying to get on these charter flights and the taliban not allowing them to and keep in mind that not all of the airports are fully operational, and that presents a logistical hurdle in and of itself and as you rightly point out, andrea, there are

andrea?d so is another haqqani relative, khalil haqqani is of kabul and continuing to raise questions about the taliban and their leadership and thanks for joining us, admiral stavridis, i want to read a statement from senator blumenthal who said he and his staff have worked night and day to secure the passage of two planes to take americans and afghanal ryes and their families to safety. i have been deeply frustrated and even furious at our government's delay and inaction. these are american citizens and afghans who risked everything for our country. we cannot leave them behind. admiral, is the state department doing enough? how do we sort through who's right or who's wrong or is it that both sides are holding to their positions where the state department is working with the taliban and what do you expect is going to happen? >> yeah. we've all heard of the fog of war, even in a post-conflict moment like this it's the fog of peace, and it's just going to be a duel of competing stories for a w

andrea, here's why that's important.iously, live in a world where people have different opinions on very important issues involving constitutional rights. and, so, what the shadow docket process essentially does is it lets the court just take a vote. a 5-4 vote with no sort of underlying analysis. what we need is a legal system of rule and law where the same rules apply in all cases. there can't be one set of rules for abortion and another set for religious rights. that's really the issue that doj would be wise to focus on this friday in their hearing to get a preliminary injunction. >> you set the stage for all of us. great to see you both. we'll have to leave it there for today. to be continued. that does it for this edition of "andrea mitchell reports." remember, follow us online and on twitter. chuck todd is up next with "mtp daily" only on msnbc. and our customers rated us #1 for network quality in america according to j.d. power. number one in reliability, 16 times in a row. most awarded for network quality, 27 tim

>> that is certainly part of it, andrea. we've heard this line of questioning for the last few weeks, there's been a lot of focus and rightly so from an american government and american military and american state department on what about the americans, how many americans have been left behind. when you look at the numbers we know the vast majority of people who have been evacuated are afghans, at risk afghans and sie holders and so on. that's going to be a continuing line of questioning. for intelligence and security purposes i don't know that they're going to be fully up front about that number because there's probably ongoing operations as well. what struck me about some of the questions we're hearing in this hearing and in the proceedings is less about the politics of it, i know we expected a lot of this would be about how much blame can be put on this president, on the former president and so on, but really has journalists some of the questions we've been looking to answer about how did the u.s. government and military
