Nightside with Dan Rea - Rundown for August 15, 2019

He's Baaack!!!!. President Trump is holding a re-election campaign rally in Manchester, N.H. tonight at the SNHU Arena. It's his first visit to the Granite State since 2016. WBZ reporter Mike Macklin is there and will be checking in with us on both supporters and protesters.

Protesters vs. Pickup Truck. Protesters were sitting on the ground blocking a staff parking lot at an ICE detention center in Rhode Island, when a black pickup truck driven by one of the center's security guards tried to drive past them honking his horn. A number of the sit in participants suffered minor injuries scrambling out of the way. The guard has been placed on administrative leave while the incident is investigated. Who is at fault for the close call - the demonstrators or the driver?

Barred From Israel. According to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu,US Congresswomen Ilhan Omar (D-Minnesota)and Rashida Tlaib (D-Michigan) have been barred from the country because of their vocal BDS advocacy. The Israel foreign minister says the decision was based upon Omar and Tlaib's blatant support for the boycott of the State, their support of terrorism against Israel as well as their minimization of the Holocaust. Was this a good decision?
