griff: he did.ugh being appointed to supreme court. but it was rooted in the president's willing to face that mob, take 'em head on, head first, and in doing so, inspired mitch mcconnell to do so and then, ultimately as i mentioned yesterday, even susan collins finally said, you know what? the democrats have crossed the line. they've gone too far, and that's why she had that great quote which is when you become too hysterical, fairness goes right out the door. pete: you made this point last hour, so i like to steal your best points -- [laughter] and use them as my own. conservatives and elsewhere you have wanted a cowt faithful to constitution, this truly is that moment. and no one thought it would be that businessman, donald trump, but it took someone who was willing to fight, didn't back away from a nominee who had been totally smeared. and ultimately are, as a result today, it's five -- wrong camera side -- 5-4 on the supreme court, in favor of conservatives. and that means your second amendment

griff: candice?out his leadership as a whole. he's got way bigger fish to fry, than susan collins. connecticut is a sinking ship. our economy is could espionage laking because it's being led by weak men like him. let me tell you she dismantled every argument like that last night and left it on the floor, everything that kavanaugh was going to be some kind of nuclear ideological bomb. she obliterated those arguments and yet he falls right back into that. the fact is the reason the american people are shocked at this is because they seen that they were right in 2016. they saw all of the predictions about trump were lies and did not happen. they're seeing this as false. it is a false reality. many people on the left have been used to being able to recreate our reality, gas lighting the american people. we've been able to overcome that we'll do it again. rachel: but you're right but also, when she laid it out it was a reminder also to some, you know, very conservative people like myself, that brett kavan

griff: that's right, ed.rease from july when the administration reversed their zero tolerance policy. steve: right. >> down here on the border, ed, people tell you these groups, the cartels look for drivers, right? things that driver the heavy numbers. what's driving the heaviest numbers right now is the perceived catch and release policy that they're going to get when they come and they know the politics that's in all of this and that's why have you got a caravan coming from hundreds of miles away and have you got heavy heavy numbers like this guy behind me coming in the dead of night. the president has staked out his ground. that ask he wants a secure border and he thinks that that's what his voters want, too. steve: griff jenkins live in mcallen, texas, amazing images you are bringing us. griff, thank you very much. he is talk about the about. last night the president did talk a lot about immigration. he said this election is going to come down to kavanaugh, the care van, law and order and common sense. wa

griff griff we are about 120 miles north of the border.u see hundreds if not thousands of migrants on the march. we are in a small town north of pijijiapan. headed likely towards tijuana. this is one of the areas where they have started in that small town and moving northward and you know i have been talking with them all morning about the fact that the president has been tweeting for them to turn around. that the dhs secretary kirsten nielsen saying they will not be able to get across the border should they come. they don't want them. yet they said they do not want to deter themselves. yet, when i talked about the president, most of these -- a lot of these are from honduras. i talked to one man from honduras about cutting off aid to honduras. he said listen, i left because the president of honduras, juan orlando hernandez is the problem. he is bad. when you talk about cutting off aid, he said it doesn't matter to me because we never saw a dime of that aid because the president never let american aid get in there what have you now as you l

thank you, griff. dangerous situation down there. rob: to washington now, back to politics, everybody talking about the sudden resignation of u.n. ambassador nikki haley. the change effective at the end of the year. jillian: president trump already out with a list of candidates to replace her. let's get to doug luzader in the nation's capital with who is under consideration. doug. >> this came as such a surprise yesterday. it was tough to come up with a speculative short list of candidates. the president made this announcement at the white house with nikki haley by his side. he praised her work and said that this transition has been in the works for some time. as for possible replacements, the president said he was considering perhaps five candidates and plans to name the successor in coming weeks. here are some names that have been tossed around. ivanka trump, the president seemed to distance himself from that idea. there's former deputy national security advisor, dena powell and rick grinnell. >> dena is certainly a person i would

>> dana: griff, what is it like where you are? it looks calm, but i know those agents have their hands full. >> reporter: it's been very busy all morning long. we have seen four or five different groups. we've made arrests of 20, 30, 35. officials tell me the average number of arrests, illegal crossing arrests in this sector of the rio grande valley is over 640 a day. it is an unbelievable overwhelming number. since this time last year the family unit that has just come across because i can't show you, they've seen a 300% increase. so even before that caravan gets here, the administration has a flooding border right here and officials trying to get this under control will have to deal with things like that caravan, should they show up. so our viewers understand, if you show up and claim asylum, you will be given a fair hearing. this is what we believe some of the caravan may do. when you have 640 illegal crossers every morning that border patrol has to chase, it's quite a task and one the administration is right to address. agents

griff jenkins live in dc as democrats refuse to give up this fight, hey, griff.ff: hey, rob and jillian, the democrats are far from ready to get rid of this fight, house minority leader nancy pelosi rallying the troops in a letter writing this, dear democratic colleague, the gop's decision to confirm brett kavanaugh to supreme court has wounded soul in our country, we must not agonize, we must organize, people must vote, what is at stake in the election is nothing less than health and security across america. tonight at 7:00 p.m., president trump will hold a much more public swearing in ceremony in the east room of the white house involved brutal confirmation battle has left wounds that are raw, senate majority leader says the momentum for midterms has shift today republicans. >> the overreach of protestors at capitol energized the republican base, particularly in red states where we are trying to pick up seats out across america, i want to thank -- i want to thank the other side for the tactics. griff: but should democrats take control of the house, clear indica

thank you so much, griff.gal immigration, crisis brewing for decades, tammy bruce says the refugee surge is not an overnight phenomenon. >> the lack of real policy here in the united states, the lack of controls, the effective through the obama administration the effective open border has encouraged this now for half a generation and you can see some of these pictures, the children, people huddling, the dangers involved, effectively it's an abuse of process that exists because we had a system that thought that there was political gain to be had by having images, that they could be used political just kavanaugh situation. the solution that trump has come up with is a good one, that if you have a safe nation that will accept refugee status for you then you're not going to get it at the united states border. heather: during obama administration 500,000 were let in the united states. police officer shot and killed in cold blood in orange county . >> antjuan had cop cars all over the house, 4 or 5 year's old, that'

all right that is the german jets are going to go there i'm joined now at the big table by griff with the he is the washington post bureau chief here in berlin his first time on the day with us griff it's good to have you here at the big table but we're miracle we know my education is a physicist a scientist maybe would believe that in politics you can map out your departure from power you can announce that play and then carry it through do you think that miracle the politician believes in her own game i doubt that she actually believes that she's going to last twenty twenty one it's very hard to imagine that that's going to be the case when you look at the constellation of forces that are arrayed against her just the fact that she is her party is losing popularity she's had these blows in the regional elections it's very clear that she can't control her own party anymore and you have a very clear succession process that is underway whoever wins that december vote is going to want to move into the big chair pretty fast after after that afterwards i mean as soon as the story broke yest

morning, griff.e coming to the u.s. one way or the other and they are not deterred by either mexico's offer for temporary employment, health care, and education, or by the current administration saying they're not going to be allowed to get asylum, and many of them telling me that, if necessary, they'll be willing to break the law to get in. but as you look here you can see this is becoming very difficult for them. they started on october 13th. many of them wearing out about. about 1500 had given up but at least 5,000 have stayed strong. among this group a gentleman we talked to in the last hour, jose from honduras who's coming even though he's convicted of a serious felony. listen. >> in my country, honduras -- reporter: can you ask him exactly what happened? >> [speaking (speaking spanish)] >> number 3. >> a third degree felony. attempt of murder. reporter: and we see here as people are waking up, a small group meeting, some of them trying to sort of self-police themselves saying they don't want --

griff: that's right. heather: thank you so much, we are on it.le democrats melted down republicans worked together to muster the support need today push him across the finish line. tammy bruce says the gop take the momentum all the way to the ballot box. >> if anybody had told me even a month ago that i would be praising lindsey graham and susan collins i would have said i was crazy. the magnificent sing that kurt. with people having open mind, the shift has actually happened and people that we maybe necessarily didn't trust came through because whatever that the strength that president trump has engendered in everyone it was there, i also liked the fact that we did come together, george w. bush, condoleezza rice calling on kavanaugh's behalf. the president was there for him. imagine what we can do incoming together. the gop establishment can put down fist and find this, it would be magnificent reformation that would move through next generations. heather: you heard griff talk about the house, the senate a major focus with 35 seats in play. to an

rachel: griff jenkins is in mexico. griff?al government putting up a roadblock before the sun came out not letting them in and they're negotiating to be let through, but you can see, yesterday we saw groups very sporadic all over the place. today the migrants made the choice among themselves to stay together to be stronger as one group, as we see them on the road and it's not just in front of me. it's also behind me. literally thousands of migrants from honduras, guatemala, el salvador trying to make their way north for them to stop, and they will be given temporary citizenship, some healthcare, some education here, but the offer being mostly rejected. some stepping away, but the bulk obviously as you see, trying to move forward to the united states. pete: good stuff griff right there. you know i'm watching those images all we hear from the so-called mainstream media is women and children, women and children. a lot of males in there. military age, 20, 30 year old males. you also have seen a lot of flags and they're not america

this seems to be changing by the second, griff. what's going on?iff: it's fast-moving, secretary pompeo on the ground ahead of important meetings that includes king solomon. here's a photo, being greeted by the foreign minister. saudi arabia may be preparing to admit they accidentally killed khashoggi, an unauthorized interrogation gone wrong. president trump said he is dispatching his top diplomat to get to the bottom of it. >> he's got instructions to find out what happened. we're talking about the whole situation with saudi arabia that you've been reading about i'm sure very much. but it's a terrible situation. there's no question about it. i don't like it one bit. >> griff: secretary pompeo's meetings include king solomon, as well as the crown prince, a lunch meating with the foreign minister of affairs, who you saw there, and later tonight dinner with the crown prince. we were told from a spokesperson that the state will continue to ask for a thorough investigation into what happened to jamal khashoggi. the family issued a statement that they

steve: thank you, griff. griff used the word caravan.he laws, if you don't take the border laws serious. if some of our leaders are too busy at banquets, taking pictures instead of coming up with a plan this will continue. we had the same issue with a caravan coming through in april. you move forward where we're at today. it is is not a caravan coming through. it is an invasion. no plan has been set. nothing has changed. brian: this guy, whatever is going to happen has to be bipartisan. we never get out of the blocks with any of this. the frustration on the border, their hands are tied. ainsley: art said only two percent of catch-and-release show up for the court appearance. brian: most of people that show up, other than mexicans, otms. mexico problem has been solved. central, south america are getting a different message that is the issue. with the 20-day amendment, they have to be let go. steve: it's a broken system. let's hope they do something about it. jillian joins us with news. jillian: let's talk about extreme weather. hurricane

griff? griff: good morning, guys. that's right.ng and growing migrant caravan is mcallen texas right behind me. before they get to this border there is already influx of people crossing. yesterday we witnessed first hand, watch. >> w we are in the bushes hiding to witness these crossings. coming in right now. you can see they have a family in a raft. >> committee, sir, were you trying to cross into america illegally? so what we are witnessing now is clearly a family that was being brought over by that smuggler that was paddling in the raft. this is an attempt to illegally cross. and they have gone back over there we seemed to have foiled this attempt. >> can you tell me why have you come illegally. >> the conditions in honduras. >> what are the conditions there? >> you cannot have work there. the criminals always will get your money. griff griff but they are not all women and children. officials here announcing over the weekend, a man wanted for murder in south carolina was arrested here in america allen as well as a member of the

griff: that's what you're hearing, that, of course, being smaller people trying to get to guatemalanre where one reported to be dead, news to them, yesterday we spoke to one of the individuals here in the caravan that speaks english, his name is ronald, he believes this group already is too big, take a listen. >> too many people now, so when in the beginning there were 2,500, now more than 8,000 people. now we have to follow some rules, you know, because if we don't keep following the rules, so this -- this caravan they don't go nowhere. griff: you can look now, one of the things they've been doing is putting women and children in vehicles trying to prioritize that because, of course, it's going to be a long march, another day, expected to go to city about 30 miles away and they want to do it in night before the heat of the day, but one thing is for sure in larger picture when they hear dhs secretary nielsen or president trump say don't come, you will not be let in, they are not deterred and keep marching, the scene any moment they'll begin moving and we will move with them, rob, jil

griff? griff: that's right, guys. good morning. the border is already overwhelmed.t in the last three weeks here in the rio grande sector they have had more than 12,700 aliens apprehended. that's why they are worried about the caravan getting up here and adding more to the problem. they have here in this sector, guys, about 55 miles of a wall. and that's why chief padilla, manuel padilla the sector wall chief says he needs even more wall to help solve the problem. listen. >> if we had this combination of personnel, technology and infrastructure throughout my border, we would truly transform this area. it's a win-win situation for everybody. this area right here, we do not see ms-13, we do not see criminal aliens coming in to this area because of the capability that we have through this combination of personnel, technology and infrastructure. griff: the combination is wall structure, along with the manpower of the overwalked border patrol agents doing such a good job here and technology of cameras and infrared scopes. here is the thing in fiscal year 2017, of all of

griff? ed: good morning, griff. griff: good morning, guys. working a group of illegals that came across the southern border two b. two miles to my south. they are in a new subdivision here. you see behind me houses being built and this is an area which just a few years ago was open field in a ripe, hot spot for illegals coming over. as we were here with the border patrol, searching for the illegal group right here, we came across a couple marvin and belinda, who are coming for an early morning walk to check on their home. this is your home behind you. wade, let you know, we are working a group of illegals. does it concern you with the border patrol and you are building a house so close to the border. >> no we see this as common. we have been down here for a year building a house. we do get illegals coming through here once or twice every two months. the border patrol presence here is very active. we always see on the way to town we always pass two or three border patrol trucks, highway patrol, mission police, so it's always -- and it's a safe

griff, thanks.ristin: with just 17 days to go before election day, heavy hitters are turning out in tight races to rally voter support. you're taking a look at houston, texas where senator ted cruz will take the stage soon with fox's sean hannity and rick perry. and vice-president joe biden will rally voters in las vegas. president trump is holding a rally in nevada this afternoon to fire up voters out there, part of a multi-state tour of key races. our peter doocy is on the ground in elko, nevada with a preview of the rally. >> the president's got midterms on the mind this morning. he's going to have a rally in nevada and he tweeted about keys races in georgia and florida. and he wrote if the democrats would stop being obstructionist and come together, we could write up and agree to new immigration law in less than one hour. look at the needless pain and suffering they're causing and the horror on the border. chuck and nancy call me. that follows a declaration by the president that this will be the

ainsley: griff jenkins is embedded with them. he joins us live. griff? keep going. this is about a mile-long all the way up there, 18 wheelers, oil tankers, buses, people try to make their way toward america, completely not deterred in any way by president trump's saying he is putting 5200 troops on the border or, the fact that he says that he may change even birthright citizenship. what is even more, guys. not one, but two more caravans have been inspiredpy the success in advance of this one. there is large group battling on the guatemala-mexico border with police, trying to cross a river there, much like this one did. third one in el salvador making its way up to the guatemala-mexico border. if you add those two together, they are a few thousand numbers. it appears it seems to be growing. brian: wow, the numbers are growing. they are not being deflected. ainsley: griff, we interviewed some people out here on the fox square today, number one issue, clearly is immigration for them. brian: thank you for giving us that unique point of view there on top of

jillian: griff jenkins live at u.s.co border in mcalan texas where agents say they need a wall, griff. griff: jillian, rob, good morning, in this area alone the rio grande valley sector they've had more than 12,700 arrests of illegal aliens in the past 3 weeks, it's fair to say they are overwhelmed even before the caravan gets anywhere near this border but that caravan obviously reforming into some 7,000 strong and making their way north, officials here certainly worrying about that keeping close eye on that and manuel padilla says one of the things he needs now is a wall to stop it, listen. >> if we had this combination of personal technology infrastructure throughout my border, we would truly transform the area, it's a win-win situation for everybody. this area right here, we do not see ms-13, we do not see criminal aliens coming into this area because of the capability that we have through the combination of personal, technology and infrastructure. griff: he only has the combination of the wall, cameras and manpower

griff, what's going on there?y side of where it's going to make landfall. and it is this big bend area that is under threat. as we have shown you the last hour, we have gotten away a little bit from this house because it's really starting to take a major, major beating because the storm surge here is coming in, expected to be 12 to 14 feet. and as our viewers will remember. a whopping majority, more than 75% of deaths in hurricane -- occur from water. it is this road in particular really starting to deteriorate. it is possibly going to lead us into catastrophic and since we have been on the air in the last hour, two, not one but two separate couples came, saw our hit and decided they are not going to stick it out. i want to come over here quickly. we don't want to impede in any way the work of the emergency officials. that's why you shouldn't stay behind. quickly allen pfeiffer is a volunteer with the franklin county emergency management. mr. pfeiffer, how are you? >> good morning. >> the conditions here are bad.

heather: griff was saying the strongest landfall in 13 years.warnings and they got out. now like you said, it's too late. thank you so much, janice. going to be very busy today. one of the hardest hit areas expected to be panama city beach, florida. that's where we find jonathan seare where there is a mandatory evacuation order, speaking of getting out. jonathan, what's the latest right now? >> reporter: mandatory evacuation orders for zones a, b and c. what that means in layman's terms is the three zones closest to the water, they want everyone out of here. and most people seem to be taking the warnings very seriously. we've been on this barrier island community during previous storms where we would see restaurants try to stay open until the last minute, until the storm arrived. yesterday, most restaurants and shops were already closed. people packing up their belongings, securing their homes and businesses, and leaving for higher ground. but as with any storm, there are always going to be a few holdouts. listen. >> we've just been through so m

griff is frozen like a fish down in the bottom of the freezer.an't get the digital signals to come up. there was a time when we worked off analog and you could get something fuzzy. but with these digital signals, it's either all or nothing. right now, most of our correspondents up and down the coast, we're getting absolutely nothing. take a look at this radar and i'll show you what's happening now. this is the main ground base radar based in panama city with a cross of different radars across this part of the country. we're real lucky to have this. you can see from the clearwater, saint petersburg area, all the way up on the gulf coast side, almost all of eastern alabama is raining. from birmingham, a line straight down, all the way east into from birmingham, alabama, to western georgia, there is solid rain across city after city after city. i'm gonna zoom in and you can see where this thing is headed. the eye wall is still pretty well formed. you can see it's getting stress on the lower right hand quadrant. it's not exactly a full circle. griff

griff jenkins is live in mexico with the latest. griff? >> hey, jon, we are about 1500 miles from the border. we have been with this caravan all day long. let me show you around the square that they have taken over. they are all here, several thousand in this town, just sort of taking over the little basketball court here. you can see also over here a little bit of a community center. a lot of relief groups, mostly smaller church groups and local aid organizations, handing out water and clothes and supplies. but that offer that president nieto made was to give these migrants some temporary work, housing, healthcare, and even some schooling if these migrants would be willing to stop where we are. but back earlier in the day, the mexican police tried to stop them, several hour stand-off that we got caught up in, the leaders of pueblo having a meeting, a very tense meeting at times with the police. but they were allowed to pass. we were in the northern town. that's where we are now. this is a situation as it continues to move northward. jon?

griff jenkins is live in the nation's capital with reaction and i know you had an eventful day in ther of all the protests. >> reporter: before the voting begins this morning, the fbi report, it was unprecedented to see brett kavanaugh making the final argument for his nomination himself. he wrote, quote, i was subjected to wrongful and sometimes vicious allegations. my time in high school and college has been ridiculously distorted. my wife and daughters have faced violent threats. against that backdrop ice testified for the judiciary committee to defend my family, my good name and my lifetime of public service. he admits he may have been too emotional at times but insists he is an independent impartial judge. that wasn't enough for the ranking member of the judiciary committee diane feinstein who said fbi investigation was insufficient. >> it looks to be a product of an incomplete investigation that was limited perhaps by the white house. democrats agreed that the investigation scope should be limited. we do not agree the white house should tie the fbi's hands. it is a plea not cred

i'm griff jenkins in washington. i've got the details coming up. >> live look now at some of the commutes including san francisco getting to downtown. northbound 101 traffic looks all right so far as you drive toward downtown. >> still pretty good breeze out there for some. it will be warm for some but cool weather is on the way. we'll talk about when coming up. and stick their fingers. repeatedly. today, life-changing technology from abbott makes it possible to track glucose levels. without drawing a drop of blood, again and again. the most personal technology, the power to change your life. life. to the fullest. >>> one year after the tubbs fire devastated parts of throsa still rebuilding and healing. a look at the progress one year late engineer a homicide investigation in fremont is now under way. the unique tool the police are using to look for that suspected killer. suspected killer. >>> good morning. thank you for joining us here on mornings on 2. i'm pam cook. >> i'm dave clark. let's talk about your weather
