In terms of temperatures looks like a record high. 98 is the high, old record 96. Tonight muggy, 79 degrees the low. From youre heading out and about keep the heat in mind, hydrate, a lot of cool water the best thing. If youre outside and have to be you have to take breaks in the shade.

This is a Bernie Sanders rally and this is just one of many. The issues vary from Bernie Sanders to immigration issues, but there is one thing the protesters have in common it has nothing to do with politics. Im a Bernie Sanders supporter, most of the people probably are going to be Bernie Sanders supporters we are disgruntled about the new emails that were released through wikileaks.

Several delegates from florida showed no mercy this morning toward Debbie Wasserman schultz who has resign her position amid an email scandal as we mentioned. Annie mccormick joins us live in center city with more on the drama during this mornings convention. Reporter rick, this is the first time we heard from Debbie Wasserman schultz since the email scandal where she was ousted as chair of the Democratic National convention. In that email scandal wikileaks released emails showing she favored Hillary Clinton all along and never gave Bernie Sanders a chance. As she entered the florida delegation breakfast she was greeted by mixed voice its ther. Take a listen. And you can here them chanting debby debby, she blows kisses to her supporters, but the supporters chants turned to boos to a number of Bernie Sanders supporters in the crowd. She addressed the mass shooting that left two dead and Dozens Injured in florida. After a phone call from Hillary Clinton and president obama Wasserman Schultz admitted she would resign after the convention. She did not offer any apologies and never e mentioned the scandal. The closest she came to referencing the scandal came when she said i appreciate theres a little bit of interest from the press, but that shows you, that florida is the most significant Battle Ground state that will make sure that Hillary Clinton is elected president of the reporter this kind of humiliation and the way they treated her, let her speak, she did what they want the her to do is step down.
