Tonight on the readout. My final message tonight is to the people of Florida and all

the impact of states we've got your back we've got your back. We've got your back. And Kamen and I will be there for as long as it takes to rescue, recover, and rebuild.

President Biden sending a message of support to Floridians as Hurricane

Milton barrels towards the state with landfall expected in just the next few hours.

Plus, Biden condemned the unquote un-American misinformation about the federal

storm response calling out Trump and Marjorie Taylor Green by name for dispensing

those lies.

And Trump's attempt to deny the bomb show

reporting that he sent COVID test to Putin

was unbelievably thwarted by his friends

in the courtroom themselves who said, yep he did that.

We began tonight with Hurricane Milton

barreling towards the west coast of Florida and set to make landfall and the next few hours.

This is a nightmare scenario for more than 3 million people who live in the Tampa Bay Area,

which could see widespread destruction.

15 Florida counties that are home to more than 7 million people are under mandatory evacuation orders.

Local officials have been preparing for the worst.

For those of you that were punched by Hurricane Helene, this is going to be a knockout. There will be trees down. There will be power lines down. It will be dangerous to move around.

If you don't have a second story, you're going to die.

There are 149 shelters open across the state, but the window to evacuate has closed.

Roadways are no longer safe to travel and people are now being directed to shelter in place.

Emergency services have been suspended in at least five counties.
