southern great lakes. diane? >> our thanks to you, ginger, who will be tracking these storms all night. >>> and now, we head overseas to a sobering milestone. the tiny country of lebanon, tonight, at the breaking point. a new report finds that more than 1 million syrian refugees are now living in neighboring lebanon. half of them, children. that means as of tonight, every fourth person living in lebanon is a syrian refugee. it would be the equivalent of every person in canada and one-third of the residents of mexico, taking refuge here in the united states. >>> and across this country here at home today, people were weighing in about the supreme court ruling on money and politics. the court striking down a limit on campaign contributions. and raising new questions about the influence of millionaires and billionaires, in the races for congress and the white house. tonight, abc's chief investigative correspondent, brian ross, is back on the money trail. >> reporter: the real campaign in american politics begins long before and far away from the confetti and balloons and speeches. the real campaign for both parties takes place at fancy dinners and luxury yachts. what's y
