senator tillis? >> thank you mr. chair.o back to i think t related to question that you asked. part of what we don't want to do is to remove options that are safer alternatives. he was a physician you wish they would not vape, right question arthur's reason there's nicotine allows injures their nicotine pouches they are they are providing people with off ramps that hopefully they can quit that's how i quit last year. startingly with pouch tobacco actually starting with the rough cut to back up moving to pouch spit less ultimately to a nicotine pouch and as of last september i have not touched it since. and i wish you the same. i know it's not going to be easy. but let's not forget these are healthier alternatives in the hands of adults. but we are trying to do is remove it as an option easily accessible option to children. y about the ultimate disposition, but we shouldn't lose that. and mr. abood, i just i when we see these shelves of products and guess dr. while it was the senator durbin staff that went to the vape shop,

republican senator thom tillis from the battleground state of north carolina said loomer "utters disgusting garbage and will hurt trump's chances of winning. enough." trump also doubled down on debunked claims about haitian migrants causing havoc in springfield, ohio, even as some schools there were evacuated today from bomb threats. >> we are going to have the largest deportation in the history of our country, and we are going to start with springfield. >> reporter: at tuesday's debate, trump drew attention to the thousands of haitian migrants, most of whom are living there legally, spreading the conspiracy theory that they are eating people's pets. >> they are eating the dogs! >> reporter: president biden today voiced his disgust with trump's comments. >> simply wrong! there is no place in america. this has to stop, what he is doing. it has to stop. >> reporter: meanwhile, with just 53 days to go until election day, vice president harris made her 12th trip to pennsylvania. its 19 electoral votes offer more than any other battleground state. >> i feel very strongly that we got to earn ever

guide, 800, 4, 5, 518 to seven breaking news republican north carolina senator thom tillis, with a warning for his own party after cnn's kfile unearth dozens of disturbing comments that the republican nominee for governor of north carolina, mark robinson, made on a pornography forum. >> the posts include robinson calling himself a quote, black nazi defending slavery, saying he liked watching transgender porn adding quote, that's effing hot and calling himself a perv i believe that mr. robinson needs to make a call fairly quickly. >> defendant's name are in the absence of a defense, then we've got to move on republican georgia governor brian kemp already withdrawing his support. >> donald trump, though, who prior to this calling, robinson martin luther king junior on steroids and said he was a candidate to be cherished, has not denounced robinson, j.d. vance also has not denounced rob vincent and kfile is back with me tonight with more breaking news on this story and the fallout that continues from kfile's reporting. so what are you finding out tonight? >> yeah, that's right. the fallout is

, tilly, dough, we play the kingdom, well... 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 1.program is on air. the belarusian national beach soccer team is again third on the continent in the match for the bronze medal of the euroleague super final, the team of nicolas alvarado thrashed spain. 6:1. this is despite the fact that our opponent won the silver medal that year. the guys were at the highest level, they really were from the first seconds of this match played aggressively, played with desire and spark, were sportingly angry, they did not give the opponent time to think or make a decision. what gnaws at me a little is that this is the game, this is the team, this is the coherence and energy, i would like it to have been in yesterday's match, but nevertheless, in any case, today we are the winners and today it is a great job. upon arrival, the team will begin preparations for the european qualification for the world cup, the matches that will take place in early october in cadiz, spain. this is the arena program, we say good night to you, in last time, that's why we'll

tillis, aye. mr. hawley, no. brought their war on the united states to american soil. they fill the clear blue sky with smoke, fire, and shattered the lives of 2977 innocent people. before the dust had settled, the world witnessed the extraordinary heroism of first responders. the compassion of neighbors and volunteers and the will of a proud nation not to let this savagery go unanswered. the terrorists who started this war, and at times that has wavered. since the years since september 11, 2001, the administrations of both parties, not to shortchange or abandon our fight against the terrorists or adversaries. colleagues in congress, not to make the job of the war fighter harder by taking essential terrorism authorities off the table and i will continue to do so as our colleagues continue section 702, two years to further extend this vital intelligence authority. the biden administration pretend the war on terrorism is over. the vice president claimed last night but, quote, there's not one member of the united states military who is in active duty in a combat zone for

it is bad for us i do not agree with that well, it's senator tillis is highlighted. >> that's an opinion that he's put forward but president trump, again, he takes advice and solicits inputs from a variety of sources listening to one particular individual is not what president trump historically has ever done. >> are you comfortable with laura loomer and the antisymmetric and racist and conspiracy theory post that she puts out there and comments that she puts out there. you're comfortable with that being one of the voices. he listens to well, what i would continue to highlight is what we see from president trump, where he continues to highlight a message of hope and optimism for our country, being able to put forward messages that be able to restore our economy, restore the southern border, and restore our standing in the world. you're not going to answer that it continued well, what we continue to see is president trump putting forward messages. once again, that is providing opportunities for folks to direct their frustration at this administration, what you've seen from this administra

thom tillis, senator thom tillis put it up on the screen. i'll read it. corey lewandowsky and everybody else allowed if the reporting on mark robinson is a total media fabrication, he needs to take immediately legal action if the reporting is true, he owes it to president trump and every republican to take accountability for his actions and put the future of north carolina and our party before himself that makes sense to me, doesn't he owe it to donald trump to take accountability if it is true and if not to do what donald trump would do, which is file a lawsuit yeah, i think i think the problem is this michael looked at deadline to get off the ballot for candidates has now since passed, the ballots were sent out already, and so it looks like mark robinson is going to be the republican nominee for governor, regardless of what this is what's amazing to me is the timing of this story obviously came out on the last day. >> and again mark robinson has denied it. i have not spoken to mark robinson or anyone has campaign, but that's up to him to figure out wher

don't want any fact-checking on that you don't look a day over 40 anthony, but i mean, senator thom tillis wrote is next he says, thom tillis wrote on x. >> senator from north carolina, loomer is a crazy conspiracy theorist marjorie taylor greene has been going after laura loomer to, i mean, i sort of feel like we're doing a disservice even talking about her. i mean, she is nuts but at the same time, i mean, here we are. we're less than 60 days until the presidential election and the republican nominee is riding around the country with somebody who thinks that 911 was an inside job and just crap and garbage thom tillis is a great guy and he supporting donald trump and i don't understand why. i guess he has to say say that for personal appearance or maybe his political consultants are telling that, but i would i would really strongly suggests that my fellow republicans and people that are elected, you got to stand up to this. you've got to speak out against this. >> where is j.d. vance and all this? i find it reprehensible that he doesn't have the stomach to speak up about this i disagree w

supported paper of the bill which acquired 60 votes to advance of senators poker, manchin, rounds, tillisot vote predict ts is the second attempt at a procedural vote in the bill after previous feltls failed to reach a 60ound threshold back in june and prior to this e public and centers kitty britton ted cruz, offered their own i legislation was objected to by democratic senator patty murray. >> mr. president, i am proud today to be joining my colleagues from texas and support of the ivf protection act i am grateful to senator cruz, for his leadership on ths importantbo topic pretty positie cruz nine can both attest to the fact thats no greater than life and her children. for many americans, building a family, becoming a mom, dad, perhaps there american dream ivf makes the difference in achieving that train, for millions of americans were facing infertility. and they help inspiring parents to start families, to grow their families. in the u.s., nearly 200 babies are born day nearly 2 percent of all babies born our because of ivf. it's just is really game changer, for so many families. tha

i'm not suggesting that i'm suggesting that people like thom tillis and senator cotton are in a cult because they are supposed to be leaders. they are supposed to be the leaders, the young leaders of the republican party. and yet they don't have the backbone, the backbone or the courage to say, you know what? yes president trump, like the rest of us, should distance ourselves from somebody who wants to join our senate republican caucus this is a man running to be their colleague, and yet they are in this case, i guess he wants to be governor somebody who wants to be a leader in our republican party. and we'd, this disassociate ourselves from this kind of rhetoric. and the republican party, but they won't say it because donald trump won't say it that's the cult. its them and they're the people who are supposed to be the leaders of the republican party and they refused to say it. i'm not blaming the rank and file. i'm blaming them because they are the people that the rank and file is sensibly should look to, except for the fact that apparently twitter is wagging the dog in this case so

senator tillis had said that at the time and he actually tweeted late last night that i believe he uhe used the words. it's beea tough day for north carolina republicans. i think that's an understatement, but he immediately shifted his focus to the presidential race and saying that republicans should, should do everything in their power to make sure that the controversies with mark robinson do not not reverberate to the presidential race. >> and he said, there, we must stay focused on races. we can win, which of course would indicate that he does not believe that mark robinson is going to be the next governor. >> he has an endorsed him in a general election either. again, even before this story came out because there was so much already out there about this, right? >> i mean, this is the latest in a long list of things, andrew, while i have you is the government going to shut down before the election really put spot here? >> look, we've got about ten days until the deadline right now, house and senate appropriators are creating what is going to be a three-month package to fund the gove

in fact, senator thom tillis came out with a unique announcement yesterday, basically challenged him,defend yourself, challenged the report or get out and so it's interesting how some of the republicans, especially at a dc, are responding right now. and i thought that was an interesting response by senator thom tillis, either challenge the cnn report or get out and he's not exactly saying he's saying it's not true, but he's doesn't have people providing any evidence to the contrary that's correct. >> that's correct. and if that would if that sort of report was directed toward me when i was running for office, i'd be fighting like the dickens, even legally. and he doesn't seem to be doing that plus, he has other baggage that's been the reason why he's been falling behind or in the last two or three months, a lot of it related to business ethics with a non-profit that he and his wife were a part of and there's some investigations going on right there. but the trump team has been moving away from him for a while now. he bullied his way onto a stage several weeks ago with sheriffs. he was

the republican senator in the state at thom tillis made this very clear in a tweet last night. let's take a look at that. he said it was a very tough day. we must stay focused on the races. we can win we have to make sure president trump wins north carolina and he goes on to say he is worried about that, just support others for candidates. have harris takes north carolina, he says she can take the white house. we can't let that happen. so look, the fallout from this as slightly unclear. north carolina has a history of splitting the ticket. the democratic governor roy cooper. he won in 2016 and 2020, and donald a trump also won those years, so we don't know the fallout of this, but republicans are worried that mark robinson and all of the baggage he is brought to this certainly it will hurt their ticket, john, those comments from thom tillis those are the sounds of being cut loose by your state party anymore, at least he didn't mention robinson in that, right? right. by officials and we'll wait to see what we hear from trump directly on that. in the meantime look, vice president

susan collins and lisa murkowski were the only ones to vote in favor of the bill, booker, manchin, tillis, rounds did not vote, second attempt to add pceral vote on the bill after the previous vote also failed to reach the 60 vote threshold bkn june. prior to this recent vote republican senators katie and ted cruz offered their own ivf legislation but it was objected too by democratic senator patty murray am proud today to be joining my colleague from texas in support of the ivf protection act. i am grateful to senator cruz for his leadership on this important topic. both senator cruz and i are parents. we can both attest to the fact that there is no greater blessing in life than our children. for many americans, building a family, becoming a mom or a dad, that's their american dream. ivf makes the difference, and achieving that dream for millions of americans who are facing infertility. ivf helps parents to start families, to grow their family. in the u.s., nearly 200 babies are born a day. so nearly 2% of all babies born are because of ivf. this treatment is really a game changer for so

today senator thom tillis posting on x a dnc plan couldn't do a better job than she is doing to hurt president trump's chances of winning reelection. enough. loomer responding, saying republicans attacking her are simply jealous they were not on trump's plane. >> laura is a supporter. i don't control laura. laura has to say what she wants. she's a she's a free spirit. >> today, trump once again talking about haitian immigrants in springfield, ohio. haitian migrants have descended upon a town of 58,000 people, destroying their way of life. the mayor of springfield says schools were evacuated today amid ongoing threats to the city after trump pushed baseless claims of migrants eating pets there. this is just a very difficult time for springfield. president biden blaming trump. >> there's no place in america. this has to stop what he's doin. it has to stop. >> both harris and trump have rallies tonight as they continue their push in battleground states. trump will be in nevada, harris in pennsylvania, perry russom, abc news, washington. >> and we are now less than two months away until

so did senator tillis from north carolina.n't be surprised if we polled all 100 senators, if there weren't messages like this on many, many more machines. the truth is, it wasn't just about killing us. these messages also said if we did this, they would kill themselves and/orharm others. of that came after tiktok urged users to call american lawmakers and to stop them from voting for that bill. so, clearly, social media has a deep hold on our country's children and teens. united states surgeon general vivek murthy wrote a few months ago that adolescents who spend more than three hours a day on social media double the risks of anxiety and depression than those who do not. guess what the data shows -- our teenager aren't on social media for three hours a day. on average, they're on social media around five hours a day. many kids acknowledge that social media's bad for them, and many parents acknowledge that too. but the situation is clearly getting more devastating. it seems to just be getting worse. our kids are suffering, and

it is not just that side of the trump spectrum, thom tillis, a more moderate supported her saying shey conspiracists. the fact remains that donald trump has not disassociated himself from her. i want to talk about voters that support donald trump. most talk about his characteristics. a significant group at every rally i attend raise conspiracy theories with me. the woman that thought joe biden was dead. another woman in new hampshire told me she was sure that mother teresa was a man and father of anthony fauci. these are widespread. i talked to someone that studies conspiracy theory today about when the sun -- about when these kinds of things can take hold. >> they are more likely to form before threatening and dangerous events. if there is an event that is threatening, say you think the other political candidate is going to destroy your way of life, if they win you will believe conspiracy theorists about that. reporter: she raised the idea that donald trump has said that if he is not elected u.s. democracy will end and he himself has put conspiracy theories out there. geoff: we also

of the republican party voicing concerns about her presence on the campaign, lindsey graham, thom tilliscongresswoman marjorie taylor greene. should we expect, given what you told me we won't see any more of laura loomer on the campaign trail with president trump? >> look, as i said repeatedly now, president trump does not agree with all of the statements made by this individual. president trump has been building the most diverse political movement this country has ever seen. he has unified the republican party and the great thing about republicans, jacqui, is that we can share when we disagree with one another, but we still understand the bigger picture, and that we cannot afford to have kamala harris be president of the united states. unlike the democrats who try to sensor and silence anyone who disagrees with them as evidenced by big tech censorship. and also evidenced by the lawsuits against rfk, jr. trying to keep him off the ballot and their tempts to keep president trump off the ballot and waging politically against him. we understand there's a country to save. kamala harris is da

this whole thing and tom tillis, i've seen other people criticize her. the whole thing is absurd. that these congressional republicans like, oh there's a racist conspiracy monger on the trump plane. like yeah, the person who's name is on the side of the plane fits that description. they can't criticize trump, right. so you have to criticize loomer. loomer is extremely off the. you usually enjoy the local mayors or your best volunteer. religious leader or something. this crazy internet troll is the person who gets invited with him to multiple stops is lunacy and it's not surprising that someone like that would be in the trump administration 2.0. trump had this box, remember he's sitting there in the box like king lear. the people that were in the box with him were a little less crazy than loomer but it was marjory taylor green, it was gates. the magiest, most online, most controversial members were around him sitting him in the box. it wasn't the lindsey grahams or tom tellicks. these are the people that would be around him if he won again. >> i will just say, in a dark note. like

also thom tillis, somewhat more moderate trump supporter from north carolina road, laura loomer is azy conspiracy theorist who regularly utters disgusting garbage. the fact remains that trump has not disassociated himself from her. i want to talk about voters who support trump. we have been to so many trump events. most supporters talk about his characteristics. a significant group at every single rally i attend raise conspiracy theories with me. the woman who thought joe biden was dead. another woman in new hampshire told me she was sure that mother teresa was a man and by the way, the father of anthony fauci. these would be laughable things except they are very widespread. i talked to someone who studies conspiracy theory today about when these kinds of things can take hold. >> generally conspiracy theories are more likely to form for big frightening dangerous events than smaller events. if there is an event you view as threatening, you think the other political candidate is going to destroy your way of life. if they win, you are more likely to believe conspiracy theories about tha

you take thom tillis. the senator from north carolina.s is a normal human being who had a successful business career. i didn't believe he doesn't feel soiled by this. how much of yourself and your principles and your values and your dignity and self-respect are you willing to sacrifice to what? elect a felon. when i was first drawn to this party in the reagan era, there was this truism that republicans like to tell that character counts. character is king with the title of the book about reagan. and it just prove to be true. and the party has decided that character doesn't count and they can't rewrite the world and people see this. there is not a school system in north carolina that could hire donald trump. he couldn't get a job as a coach. there is not a board in america that would approve him being hired as the ceo. and yet the republican party is still with him. and i think they will lose and lose badly. >> according to a new nbc news poll, 57% of voters have a negative view of project 2025 versus just 4% who see it in a positive light

one person not happy to hear out on the trail north kind of problem senator thom tillis who posted isonspiracy there is too readily utters disgusting garbage intended to divide republicans dnc plants could not do a better job than she is doing to hurt trump's chances of what in the reelection. enough. what's interesting is trump then responded to this entire controversy because he was asked about yesterday. he posted online that she is not a part of his campaign but instead he appreciates her support he feels like she is supporting him while other conservative activist certainly question whether or not he would be able to make it back to the white house. we will look to see if blumer continued to say on the troth trump today here in nevada he's going to back out of the battleground streets later on this week. >> controversy, mark good to see you in las vegas thank you. arthel: every one tends to pontificate occasionally. went pope francis does that people pay attention. the pontiff isn't putting in his a few cents on the election. he does not seem to be impressed by either the former

. >> senator tillis of north carolina is recognized. >> thank you, mr. chair. congratulations to all of you for your nominations. commissioner crenshaw, we will start with you. you made a statement after the s.e.c. recent climate role and i think to use your words, you said, you considered the rule to be the bare minimum and not the rule i would have written. so i am curious. with respect to the scope three reporting requirements, is that one of the root causes of your disappointment? if you can keep your comments brief, i would appreciate it. >> senator, thank you. with respect to bare minimum, my intent there was -- >> where did i fall short? >> it fell short, investors, talked about two places investors. i was thinking about when i said not the rule i would've written, i would've thought about using models, assumptions and estimates much more completely than we did. and that way we could've got more information to investors in a way that was less expensive and i would also consider robust safe harbor from liability. >> confirmed, would you consider reopening

. >> don't end up but for tilly saw their shoes off and running again as we turn our attention to the forecast on this monday afternoon at a live look there at the san mateo bridge where the sun is breaking down. kyla grogan joining us in studio for an update. yeah, there's a lot of sun. if you're heading west that you're going to see coming >> towards because we have just got a lot of heat out there and a lot of sunshine and a whole lot of blue skies. you can see it's just barry white, including out at the coast there at half moon bay. so temperatures across the state have been heating up and you can see that. here's a look at reading. that's up ton 102, right now. 75 in la. but here around the bay area, we've been getting very, very hot. take a look at these temps right now. inner east bay certainly were some of those higher 90's are. but oh, wow, that just went up. check this out. you guys, pittsburgh now 107 degrees. that is well exceeding the forecast there. you can see that's a shock to me were about 76 in downtown san francisco, north bay, also staying very warm 99 at santa ros
