This is Lou Dobbs with the Great America Show midday update for October 10th.

Hamas still launching rockets into Israel, hundreds overnight targeting the city of Ashkelon.
00:00:11.380
The Israeli defense forces are massing on the Gaza southern border for a major assault
00:00:16.280
on Hamas, firing into targets in Gaza while Israeli fighter jets are attacking Hamas targets
00:00:23.160
throughout Gaza. The United States, the United Kingdom, Germany and France unified in their
00:00:28.620
support of Israel and condemning Hamas aggression. Iraq warning the United States not to get involved
00:00:35.260
in the conflict. That, as the Gerald Ford aircraft carrier strike force is taking up position near
00:00:41.720
Israel and the U.S. military shipping in munitions to Israel simultaneously. Senator Marsha Blackburn
00:00:48.980
calling for the Biden regime to freeze the six billion dollars that it agreed to release on
00:00:54.680
September 11th. The Biden administration refusing to acknowledge Iran's role in the Hamas attacks,
00:01:01.480
presumably because if they did, they'd have to take some action against the country they agreed to send
00:01:07.840
six billion dollars. President Biden speaking to the nation at 1 p.m. Eastern today.
00:01:14.940
Meanwhile, a meeting of the GOP House conference to discuss the vacant speakership
00:01:19.460
revealed what are reportedly deep divisions within the Republican Party. Congressman Jim Jordan,
00:01:25.980
considered the ideal replacement for Kevin McCarthy, doesn't have a majority of the votes apparently,
00:01:32.140
and neither did Steve Scalise, his principal opponent for the Post. But guess who wants the job?
00:01:38.140
Kevin McCarthy, floating his own name to return to the speakership. In my opinion, if the Republican
00:01:44.260
Party were to do that, it would lead to the end of the Republican Party, a suicidal act. They not
00:01:50.960
only would look like fools, they would have well earned the label. Our guest today is former Customs and
00:01:56.980
Border Protection Commissioner Mark Morgan. We're talking about the likelihood of terrorist groups
00:02:01.920
crossing the southern border that is wide open at will. The border that the Biden regime turned over
00:02:08.780
to the Mexican drug cartels from almost the very day President Biden was sworn in. Please join us for
00:02:15.700
all that and much more on The Great America Show. I'm Lou Dobbs with this Great America Midday Update.
