Overnight donald trump declaring a state of emergency. Thousands of residents sandbagging, scrambling to evacuate ahead of what could be the first hurricane of the season. Barry is expected to bring storm surge and potentially lifethreatening flooding to new orleans as early as tonight. The citys mayor warning residents take shelter in several states on the gulf coast remain on alert. Meteorologist rick is live in the studio and is tracking of the storm. Good morning. Not that the storm is so big or strong but there is so much water in the Mississippi River because of all the rain and snow we saw last winter. All that water trying to get out and now you have water trying to get on shore. Hurricane warnings in effect in coastal louisiana. It is still a Tropical Storm but a tendency for increasing, the models showing it could increase throughout the day today. At the center of the storm all the action is far to the south and that means a big storm. A lot of moisture on shore indicating we should not look at the center point. To the northwest a bit of a landfall, the center of the storm crossing overland overnight tonight into tomorrow but a lot of warm water at the peak heat of what it should be, not where we are in july, water temperatures pushing 90 , one of the reasons it will continue to strengthen. This is oyster im talking about, still have flood warnings in the Mississippi River. That is the longest the Mississippi River has been in continuous flooding since we have known about the flooding stage. A lot of water pushing on sorenson spots, 10 to 20 inches. We dont know where that will happen but potentially new orleans area, that will be a big problem. Heather new orleans and flooding, nobody wants to hear that. Appreciate it. Today Vice President mike pence is set to visit the southern border with the second lady and members of the Senate Judiciary committee. The group will get a firsthand look at a Migrant Detention Center in mcallen, texas as house dems holy hearing on the treatment of migrant children. Acting dhs secretary kevin mack a lean in and mark morgan were invited to testify. Morgan hasnt responded.

Donald trump pumping the brakes on the legal fight to put the Citizenship Question on the 2020 census. Doug lose 8 or joins us with more. The president found another way to get some answers. Reporter a surprising turn of eventss. Most expected an executive order to add the census question, the Citizenship Question to the census but that is not how it played out yesterday. We are not backing down on our effort to determine the citizenship status of the United States population. We will defend the right of the American People to know the full fact about the population, citizens and noncitizens in america. We will leave now stern unturned. Reporter the president says hes not backing down but this is a major step back from the original position he staked out on this. Instead of the census route, the president is ordering the government to gather data through other methods to come up with the citizenship count. The president has chosen today will bring unprecedented resources to bear on determining how many citizens and noncitizens are in our country and yield the best data the government has had on citizenship in many decades. Reporter immigration and Customs Enforcement is latest begin a nationwide sweep of Illegal Immigrants who face court orders to leave the country and some democrats are suggesting work arounds to fort ice. It is not the same as a search warrant. If that is the only thing, agents do not have a legal right to enter a home. If ice agents dont have a warrant signed by a judge a person may refuse to open the door and let them in. In a hearing scheduled about children in detention centers. Jillian we will talk about that coming up. Have a good weekend. Democrats declaring victory over the president abandoning the Citizenship Question but the real clear politics, both parties will fire up their base. It is a political football. And democrats are in a situation, he gave up the battle. And the judiciary against him and his supporters. And william barr standing up to say, it is constitutional. That is going to be his argument. This p. M. Court did not rule against adding the Citizenship Question but required the Trump Administration to provide a more substantive reason to add it. R kelly arrested a new federal sex crime charges in chicago in a 13 count indictment including child pornography, obstruction of justice. And facing several other charges of felony sexual assault.

He passed away from colon cancer in 2008 leaving behind a wife, jill, and their three children. We are told all of them are doing very well, his youngest daughter graduating college one year early. He was 53 years old. The time is 11 minutes after the top of the hour. Donald trump outlining his executive order to find out who was in the United States illegally. Ultimately this will allow us to have a more complete count of citizens than through asking the single question alone. Heather why our next guest says the president s new strategy makes perfect sense. Out and do putting itself on the map for the wrong reasons. The mistake that has social media schooling the company on geography. In a crossfit gym, were really engaged with who we are as people and making everybody feel welcome.

Thank you well he did say please yes he did and, thank you all boys thank you, thank you, thank you. We are not backing down on our effort to determine the citizenship status of the United States population. We are pursuing a new option to ensure complete and timely count, i will ensure an executive order to put this very plan into effect immediately. Heather the president outlining his to get an accurate count of us citizens without using the 2020 census. Is this a win for the president . Former Deputy Assistant for policy and Economic Development under the Trump Administration doctor Gavin Clarkson joins me with more. Thank you for joining us this morning. Glad to be back on. The 20 what is the president talking about . These other avenues, this new option, other methods to determine citizenship and will it work . The objective is to try to find out who is a citizen and who is not. What the president is doing is bringing the power of the federal government in terms of different databases they have to figure out the people counting the senses, who is a citizen, who is here legally, who is here illegally so the objective is to get a complete and accurate census, to use that for things like deploying ice resources. The goal is to have the most accurate picture of the population which is what the constitution requires under the enumeration law. Heather how do you do that if the Citizenship Question is not on the census . They will get identifying information from the senses and match that with other federal databases to answer the question without asking the person. Sometimes the person might lie. They might say i am a citizen when they are not. They might say i am here legally when they are not whereas this way by matching the databases as a former Computer Scientist make sense to do it this way, the democrats and radical open borders left will try to delay the process beyond the time the senses can be printed. This way they may have won the delaying action but the census and Commerce Department will have Accurate Information about a simple question. How many of the United States are actually citizens. Heather is a matter of logistics and not legality and im wondering as you talk about it, seems like it will be very involved, will it cost more money to do it this way . I would have to see more details about the specific data but i dont anticipate it will cost substantially more money. The Supreme Court said it is perfectly acceptable to ask about citizenship. The president s team would have won and the attorney general said they would win this chase. The problem is it would take too long. Heather you are running for u. S. Senate from new mexico and as such, you know about the immigration problem. The New York Times reporting about these nationwide ice raids set to begin sunday, originally came from the New York Times that it would be 10 major cities, we can pull that up for you but these are people who have gone through the court process, the court process, they are living here illegally, correct . These are people who had their due process was a federal judge issued a deportation order. I dont hear democrats talking about rule of law because they dont like this outcome. These are people who had their day in court and they said you need to leave the country and they are defining the rule of law by illegally remaining. Bill nancy pelosi at the top of the show, what about democrats telling them how they can get around this . It is unconscionable they would try to help people define the rule of law. You hear democrats saying illegal aliens had children in the United States who are citizens and that is also wrong. As a tribal member i can tell you im not a citizen because i was born in the United States. It took an act of congress in 1924 to make me, my parents and tribal grandparent citizens under the indian citizenship act of 1924. Anybody who tells you the 14th amendment guarantees citizenship for anybody born in the United States is wrong. Heather thank you for joining us. We will see if this goes down on sunday and we will be reporting on it. Thank you. Have a great day and a great weekend.

Wall street with another record high, dow jones surgical of 27,000 points for the first time ever. The 228 point increase is credited to the easing of trade tensions in the Federal Reserve pledged to lower interest rates. Extreme weather, louisiana preparing for the worst as Tropical Storm barry threatens to turn into a hurricane. Thousand sandbagging, heading to higher ground, whatever they can do as forecasters predict dangerous storm surge and lifethreatening flooding. Doug mcelway is live in new orleans as the storm begins to lash the coast. Lurking behind this storm is the memory of hurricane katrina. Remember the devastation it reeked honesty and it was not a traditional devastation it was not wind but water that caused the trouble. Huge amounts of rain, huge amounts of flooding and we are expecting the same thing with the storm, helps to explain the urgency of the president s tweet when he urged people on the gulf coast, quote, it is imperative, imperative that you heed the direction of fema, state and local officials working here fo years below sea level. It is the big easy as people call it. Let the good times roll is the philosophy of the city. A lot of people are reticent to leave their homes because of potential for looting. They want to take it easy, they like being where they are and think it will pass. It is one of the reasons governor John Bell Edwards is employing people to make sound decisions. It is not too late to put your family in a better position. Have a game plan. This is a serious storm. The way the National Weather service is describing it is lifethreatening flood potential. That are to get everybodys attention. Reporter the city is proud of the fact it has the capability of being able to extract more water than any other city in the world. It has 120 pumps, each of which are capable of removing 1000 ft. Of water per second. We are told all the two of those pumps are operational. It can move an inch of rain water within an hour and after half an engine of rain water for every subsequent hour but they readily acknowledge we are expecting 10 to 20 inches of rain and they cannot keep up with that. There will be flooding, how much we dont know. We will be watching. Heather katrina, memories fresh and everyones mind. Prosecutors and police pushing fingers at Jeffrey Epstein who skipped the court mandated checkin for eight years. That according to the new york post. Epstein was ordered to report to a manhattan courthouse after 90 days after registering as a sex offender but he never did. The report comes as a lawyer for two of epsteins accuses slam labor secretary alex r costas deal with the financier. After that private 1on1 meeting it is clear victims were never told there was a signed agreement between epstein and acosta for federal prosecution. Heather he pleaded not guilty to sex trafficking charges on monday. The House Judiciary Committee voting to authorize subpoenas to 12 key witnesses in the mueller probe. Donald trumps soninlaw and Senior Advisor jared kushner, former attorney general Jeff Sessions and former Deputy Attorney general rod rosenstein. This comes ahead of Robert Muellers series of hearings on capitol hill and according to the Washington Examiner nancy pelosi warning democrats to steer clear of drama. Do you think that will happen . Iran, lets talk about this, iran targeted a British Oil Tanker in the persian gulf, the latest sign of aggression from the rogue nation. Is Donald Trumps maximum Pressure Campaign a reason for the new escalation and what does this mean for the us . Here to discuss is the president of Security Studies jim hansen. Thank you for joining us. What about this latest escalation . A clear sign that iran has not gotten the message. This was reportedly in response to the seizure of the tanker that was taking iranian oil which is for didnt. Now we have iranian faster boats harassing attempting to commandeer tanker in the strait of hormuz again and the only reason it didnt happen, the only reason we are not watching british hostages on tv is they have a warship escorting it. That is not a good enough thing to do. We cant escort every warship. Heather the british warship intercepted it. The american aircraft flew overhead. Are they just trying to provoke the us . They are trying to show they will not be bound by the standards they are supposed to adhere to. I dont know how you start negotiations with someone who is willing to try and create a hostage situation and attack tankers. At some point the us or the brits or whoever is in the area needs to turn those iranian faster boats into flotsam and jetsam to let them know that is not acceptable in the modern world. Heather hopefully things will deescalate in that area. Switching gears, you were at the White House Social Media summit yesterday, social media discrimination against conservatives, that was the key topic. What do you think of what transpired yesterday . It was very productive. The president brought leaders in congress have a cabinet and others together and we talked about what concrete steps we can take to stop tech giants from using their monopoly power to conduct viewpoint discrimination and we asked the president was he willing to use the investigative powers of some of the federal agencies to look into this and he said that is on the table. When the tech giants come in, to go and talk, bringing in facebook and twitter and google and youtube, to say you need to show us what youre doing that is causing this and show us what youre going to do to stop it. We dont want government intervention. We wanted level Playing Field in the spirit of free speech. Heather here is Something Else the president had to say. I notice things happening when i put out something, a good one that people like, good tweet, take it down and it goes up, does anyone know what i am talking about . Heather lots of folks the what he is talking about. Final word on this. Tech companies have tremendous power, they built a tremendous product and we respect freemarket capitalism but when you have a monopoly on a vital thing like information you need to treat everyone fairly. Heather jim hansen, great to have you with us, have a good weekend. The time is 20 minutes until the top of the hour, donald trump will need swing voters to come on top of the 2020 election but who are they and i democrats doing a better job reaching them . Our next guest brings in the vital group that could be the key to winning crucial battleground states. So if you need money for your family, call newday usa. The house will vote on renewing the Victims Compensation fund, if it doesnt pass, victims only have until december 2020 to file claims. 1. 4 billion, the latest settlement related to the Opioid Crisis today. And Addiction Treatment medication will pay the Us Government the record amount of the government accusing the company of fueling the Opioid Crisis by making false or misleading claims to promote the drug and drive up sales and it is also a type of opioid. Swing voters played a pivotal role in Donald Trumps historic 2016 victory but who are those voters and could they hold the key to a Democratic Victory in 2020 . Deputy assistant to george w. Bush, brad blakeman, lets look at this. The preliminary battleground state, arizona, florida, but what i want to take a look at, where the 2020 democrats are campaigning and out of this list only two potential battleground states, iowa and new hampshire. Why are they only campaigning in two of the battleground states . Those are the first state of the union that have caucuses and primaries so they are looking at the selection process. They are going to go to tried and true base to gain the nomination, and have to improve messages to a broader audience including swing voters and independents. What the swing voters . They identify as a party but dont necessarily vote and a kneejerk reaction with republicans or democrats, and association. They know where they are with microtargeting, he is going through this before but he knows where his votes came from last time. The challenge is to keep those votes. The Approval Rating so far in the top battleground states, new hampshire, wisconsin 46 , michigan 44 , pennsylvania, florida, 44 . Looking at those numbers, good or bad . The president gets knocked out every day by 24 democrats running for the nomination including the liberal media, who gets his head knocked in every day, doing great and especially when you look at his record and these polls dont mean very much. If i were the president i would not be losing any sleep. I would be happy where i am because that is a good indicator where it is going to go and based on what we know, it turns on the economy and the economy cannot be going better. Heather cant Pay Attention 100 to polls the last time around. When it comes time to get those swing voters they seem extreme this year talking about free healthcare for illegals, open borders, and will that attract swing voters . Democrats are making an irreversible left turn. Today they want to be identified as democratic socialists. America isnt going socialist in 2020. There base is so out of touch with the general population, which elects president s. I dont think people will be for open borders, and raising taxes. The economy cannot be doing better. The middle class is not getting fair share. Every sector of this economy is doing well. Good luck to them. If they make their left turn to be selected they will never be elected.
