The Need-to-Know Morning Show on Tuesday opens with urgent weather news as Hurricane Melissa, a Category 5 storm, is making landfall in Jamaica with catastrophic winds sustained at 175 mph and gusts over 200 mph. The island is bracing for two to three feet of rain and a 10-to-15-foot storm surge.   The show's main political focus is the Schumer Shutdown as it approaches one month. Majority Leader John Thune is featured, responding to House Minority Whip Catherine Clark's admission that Democrats are letting American families "suffer" for "leverage". Thune condemns the Democrats' demands, which include $1.5 trillion in new spending and taxpayer-funded healthcare for illegal immigrants. The political segment also highlights the FBI foiling a plot to assassinate AG Pam Bondi, with the suspect being tied to violent rhetoric and having a history of felony stalking and domestic battery in Minnesota and Florida.   Finally, the show honors Fargo Police Officer Elliot Dugan for the Luther Family Ford Salute to Law Enforcement. Dugan, a Fargo native and Shanley High School graduate, discusses his career, including his recent start with the Red River Valley SWAT team and his role as a training instructor.   Standout Moments: 0:01:06 - Update on Hurricane Melissa's catastrophic impact with winds over 200 mph and feet of rain expected in Jamaica.   0:03:00 - Discussion on Democrats like Eric Swalwell demanding the destruction of Trump's White House ballroom after it's built.    0:09:56 - Senator John Thune highlights Democrats' "political leverage" strategy, stating they want families to suffer to push for illegal immigrant healthcare and other spending.    0:22:04 - FBI foils a plot to assassinate AG Pam Bondi; suspect linked to violent rhetoric and a history of stalking in Minnesota.   0:29:16 - Honoring Fargo Police Officer Elliot Dugan, who shares his experience as a training instructor and a member of the Red River Valley SWAT team.   0:33:04 - Final update on Hurricane Melissa: the western third of Jamaica will face the strongest winds, but the entire island is expected to have catastrophic damage.
