And partisan attacks. We are now in the process of defeating the radical left. And his promise about controversial monuments. Well never allow an angry mob to tear down our statues. Act of defiance. Despite the president s warning, protesters in baltimore toppling a statue of Christopher Columbus as the crowd cheers and tossing it into the harbor. The latest statue to be torn down in major cities across america. And kanyes surprise. The singer who looked comfortable during his 2018 visit to the white house, making an announcement about his future plans, setting off his own july 4th fireworks. Good morning. President trump offering some verbal fireworks before the fireworks, and unlike his mt. Rushmore event the day before, he addressed the pandemic, blaming china. Saying that country must be held accountable. The president spoke on the white house lawn where very few people were Wearing Masks. This on a day where coronavirus cases increased in 39 states. Deaths rose in 14 states. South

Fairly calm and in the evergreen area about 4 Miles Per Hour. I will fastforward the timeline. The winds dont pick up for the afternoon but will pick up this weekend. This weekend we are tracking a cooldown, so i will have another update on that and what we can expect coming up shortly. Back to you. Thank you very much. In the meantime in solano county, firefighters are battling a fire that started yesterday afternoon near a neighborhood off of cordelia street, and nearby houses are still being evacuated this morning. Right now we want to get a look at that traffic this morning. Its going to be one of those days, mike. I know its not what we are used to seeing at this time but certainly more traffic on the roads right now. Yeah, we are starting to see that build but right now under the curfew, traffic dropped off from last week. At the top of the screen, we circled the area south of highway 12 and thats what laura was talking about, and highway 12 is still okay, and its a 300acre fire
Which is a few miles off the roadway, and the closest intersection you might recognize is Silver Creek Valley road and san felipe road. Up where the fire is burning on the ridge, close to the ridge, not a lot of homes so no structures are threatened.

C vianey, you have a look at that . Yeah, anytime we see a spike in the heat we get drier conditions and the dry brush works as fuel. We will be quick to climb into the 80s and 90s. Good thing is the wind speeds are fa
Protesters turned into a mob. Rioters and arsonists left entire city blocks in ruins in some cases, barbaric in their attacks on people. In cities like rochester, new york, a man in white was savagely beaten for trying to stop a group of looters in a store under their apartment. And a dallas man trying to protect his neighborhood was beaten within an inch of his life by these socalled protesters and demonstrators. The man is stable, but police have made no arrests whatsoever. Nearly all of these ugly scenes of vicious mobs rioting unfolding in the streets and neighborhoods of democratic partyrun cities, democraticrun cities. And local Law Enforcement in nearly every one of those cities was apparently ordered to permit leftwing extremist groups including antifa run rampant to do as much damage as possible to property and injury to citizens and Law Enforcement alike as they chose. Where were those mayors, where are they now . And why arent citizens demanding these mayors, these city coun
