A perfect Beach Weekend and were going to talk much more about the beach forecast, the pool forecast and the heat recast and the storm forecast and ive got a lot of bforecas. Sy friday for you. All right. Well check back in just a bit. Doug, thank you. The heat is going to be a major llenge for folks heading down to the mall for the fourth of july, and today district leaders gave us new details about what we can expect next week. The president will speak, as you know, warplanes will fly overhead, and, ocourse, fireworks will explode near the mall. News 4s corey smith joins us live outside the Lincoln Memorial helping you get red for the big festivities. Hey, cory. Oh, jim, are you red re, because im very, very ready to celebr first fourth of july here in the nations capital.

I think that is something that any design, for any project that is going out for the length of time that this one would have to do pits outback. I think its going to have to go handinhand with the flood study on the seawall, because obviously there has to be a protective line, over time, as the sea levels rise. The only thing, i think i would like to see some direction. I like the idea of an open map so i can do what i want.

Thank you. I had a question about our process. Ive seen us do rfps have we ever done where we could get a nullified offender list for the pop up so maybe for a couple of weeks we can work off the vendor list and have all of the proposals at once.

I think we can do it that way. We have not done a popup request for anything youd this is leasing new trails for us. We can certainly think about, i think your point is a good one.

We will think about that, try to come back with a better recommend

On watching the harks i am. In downtown. So youre ready for this july 4th im not going anywhere near military tanks on the ball potentially i would rather go to the mall that the oscars are held in. And get an Orange Julius on oscar night than go to the mall and deal with this now absolutely not this is i mean theres nothing new about the idea of sort of having these you know. Military like parade like i get it i get the over the july i think its strange that it came so quickly like this why wouldnt you do that the 1st year why when you flew to america your 1st year not as why did you wait until youre getting reelected but i think whats interesting is peoples outrage about that i mean for me on my you know whatever but the thing about it and i feel because the idea that this is somehow like new with trump i think is interesting and my favorite former pentagon and state Department Spokesman under.
