idalia dangerously close to being a major category 3. now within about 100 miles of the florida gulf coast where some areas of florida's big bend could get catastrophic 15-foot storm surge. matt finn is live in saint pete, florida as it idalia closes intricate is beginning to look bad where you are. >> trace, the wind and rain has been very consistent for several hours now. the beach where we are is a barrier island to the tampa bay area. only about a 20 minute drive rest up tampa bay. this is considered zoned "a" of evacuation area. this is under a mandatory evacuation because of how low-lying this area is. fema and the national weather service in pinellas county officials have been warning that this area could see a 7 to 10-foot storm surge. anybody who remains here at this hour now perhaps faces that storm surge. governor desantis has warned that if you have not evacuated this area now, if you were to dial 911 are called emergency services, they may not be able to respond this area. it is so low-lying that it typically does see flooding. we have covered hurricanes in this exact area in the past where we have seen businesses and resorts go underwater. we will be here throughout the night and warning and keep you updated. >> back to you as the news warns. live in saint pete beach. thank you. let's bring in michael presley bobbitt an author, playwright and resident of cedar key which could be in for a direct hit. we talked earlier and you said you were going to ride this thing out. any second thoughts as it gets much closer? >> in for a penny and in for a pound. we are here. we spent all day getting the island as ready as we can be and getting things boarded up with sandbags and encouraging as many people as possible to leave. at this point we are here and set up for the evening. we have some resources in plays that wants the storm surge abates we will have some boats ready to go. the elderly and the infirmed that frankly just refused to leave the island, we will get out there as soon as we can to help them. >> the deputy director of the national hurricane center said a short time ago, i am quoting, that cedar key is right smack in the middle of that area. i am especially concerned for them because the entire island could be cut off with conditions like that. matt finn was just reporting if, in fact, this thing gets bad, there is no chance that helped, come and get you. what is your plan in case things get really bad? >> that's exactly why i am here and a few of us have stayed. help is not coming. there are some folks that frankly will be in a dire situation. and might be the better part of the day before help can come. so we have a safe location that is at the top of a hill. it's a stone building that we believe will withstand the winds and will stay above even the most catastrophic predictions of 15-foot storm surge. we have a safe base of operations. i will tell you a 15-foot storm surge is complete and total devastation of the island. maybe four or five buildings will remain and everything else will be totally inundated. this is a worst-case scenario regardless of how the hurricane may wobble between now and landfall. i don't see a way out where cedar key still looks like it did this morning. >> we will check back in with you. i want to know if you change your mind in the next hour or so, is there still a way for you and the people they are to get off the island? >> there is. probably until about 6:00 in the morning i think there is a way out. i am exhausted. i have been going nonstop since daylight this morning helping folks. i'm about to lay down and take a nap until about 3:00 in the morning. then we will get up and reevaluate. by about 6:00 we will be cut off. >> michael, best of luck to you and the people on cedar cedar key. we will check back with you. we hope everything goes just fine. breaking tonight a brand-new bombshell report seems to back up claims from a former ukrainian prosecutor that he was fired for investigating an energy company tied to hunter biden. the senior national correspondent kevin gorg is live in d.c. with what new e-mails are revealing about the investigation into burisma. >> something else. good to be with you wants again, my friend. huber recall there was an interview with fox news last week and that former ukrainian prosecutor repeated allegations that joe biden got him fired for a probe involving burisma. now there are e-mails from hunter biden's abandon laptop obtained by the daily mail that seemed to lay bare just how the first sun may have been involved in attempts to keep law enforcement from looking into possible corruption at the company. according to that report hunter connected burisma with a d.c. consultancy by the name of blue star strategies. it is run by a form of former clinton officials. a burisma official spelled it out in an e-mail in november 2015 riding this. the ultimate purpose, he wrote, of there work was to close down for any cases or pursuits against burisma's founder who was under investigation in ukraine. those investigations, trays, would have included interrogations of members of the executive board including hunter biden according to victor jochen. to be continued. >> indeed it will. live in d.c., thank you. let's bring in chairman of the house judiciary committee congressman jim jordan. great to have you on. i want to set this up. the timeline is this. on may 12, 2014, the day before hunter biden is put on the board of burisma for a million dollars a year he gets an e-mail from burisma executive that says the following. i am quoting. we urgently need your advice on how you can use your influence to convey a message, signal, et cetera to stop what we consider to be politically motivated action. that action, of course, was someone investigating the corruption at burisma. what do you make of that? >> that action was the pressure that was referred to in this now famous meeting on december 4th. this was in 2014. a few months later on december 4th, 2015 the meeting in dubai. hunter biden, devon archer and the guy you just indicated and the head of burisma. they are meeting and the pressure is so intense that we need your help. they have seized $23 million of our assets. we are getting pressure from the prosecutor. what can you do? five days later. actually, there is a phone call at the meeting where they get on the phone with someone in d.c. no one who tells us who it is. we all kind of imagine who it was. five days later joe biden goes to ukraine and gives the speech where he talks about firing the prosecutor. this is before that. this is the run-up to that. this is building the case for why they want to get show can off the back and how they want hunter biden to help with the situation. >> these e-mails will be key going forward. we now know that jay bratt who's a top agent special counsel with jack smith met with white house officials multiple times. the new york post writes the following. they met at the white house on march 3rd, 2023. a spokesman for smith's office said the case related interview and a person related said it was an interview of a career official who was working at the white house during the trump administration. nine weeks later on june 8th trump was indicted by smith's office. at the very least, it looks bad, congressman. >> yeah, you have the top guy with jack smith the special counsel going to the white house. how many times have we heard karine jean-pierre stand at the white house press briefing room and say the department of justice operates independent from the white house. we have no involvement in the trump matter. no involvement whatsoever. really? what happened at this meeting? was jack smith there. was he the proxy or the go-between? we don't know. we want to know what took place. it's not supposed to have any type of appearance of this kind of thing going on. what happened at this meeting? who were they talking about? what took place. that's what we want to know. that's what the american people want to know. >> eventually the media will have to start covering this. it just looks very convenient. thank you for your time. we appreciate it. >> thank you. meantime gold star families continue to demand answers about the disastrous afghanistan withdrawal in 2021 that took the lives of 13 servicemembers. marianne rafferty is live with the latest on this. good evening. >> very emotional testimony from the families. the house foreign affairs committee hearing from the families today. the gold star families are speaking out. the committee has been taking a closer look at the chaotic withdraw that left 13 american service members dead and many of those family members like christie shamblin who lost her daughter-in-law marine sergeant nicole gee saying she has been waiting too long for answers for a tragedy she believes was entirely preventable. >> while those victories belong to the troops, there were failures. i can count over half a dozen opportunities to stop this tragic ending. >> the pentagon says military commanders on the ground made the best decisions based off what they knew at that time. adding, from the investigation at the tactical level the abdicate attack was not possible without degrading the mission without maximizing the number of evacuees. we heard from the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff who released a statement bowing accountability. >> we will see if it happens. thank you. let's bring in house foreign affairs committee congressman cory mills and u.s. marine veteran and founder of mighty oaks foundation chad robichaux. thank you for coming on. congressman, to you first. i spoke with cheryl rex who lost her son dylan in kabul. i asked her what president biden could do to at least give her some comfort. here is what she said. i will get your response. >> he could call me. i have a phone number. he could call me. i'm not sure what he could do at this point to honor them. they their names, talk about them. man up and talk about your failures that you held in afghanistan. >> the thing is, he won't even reach out, congressman. >> yeah, it's truly despicable and shameful that not only could he not mention all 13 of these brave heroes at the state of the union or at any point in time. but even when the bodies were arriving at dover he was busy checking his watch to see what time it was. or talk about the loss of his son beau biden. i don't buy what they just said about the fact that there was some intelligence. i have gone into the skiff and read the daily intel briefs. i read the department of state cables. i can tell you there was actionable and credible intelligence that told them on a daily basis up to the point when the actual mission planning was finished and the imminent threat was being presented at the abbey gate on the 26th of 2021. >> it's incredible. i want to put this up. general mark milley says he gave the families, he was talking about information. he gave the families information. but the father of hunter lopez responded and said this. i will get your response. >> the issue is not the lack of information during those briefings. it is the disregard of intelligence. it's the disregard of planning. that is what you should be apologizing for. >> the total disregard of intelligence. they were warned that there was terrorist activity at abbey gate. >> absolutely. let's start from the beginning. the generals that advise president biden advised against this. the intelligence committee members advised against this. the dissent cables that the congressman was talking about that said do not due this. there was actionable intelligence all the way through where you had marine snipers on the ground saying we have a bomber at the gate. we need to engage. they were not allowed to engage. all the way from the very beginning they had all the information they needed to make this catastrophe. i was there doing evacuations. something bad is going to happen. everybody new. they knew something bad is going to happen and they chose. that's important to know. they chose not to do anything about it. >> i want to play the soundbite and get a quick reaction from both of you. this is pennsylvania congressman. watch. >> it is a fact that the end was devastatingly heartbreaking. a tragic terrorist bomb tearing away so many. civilians as well as our servicemembers, your loved ones. still, it was necessary to bring this war to a close. >> congressman, they are missing the big picture. i have 15 seconds for each of you. >> the bottom line is there tone deaf to the fact that they are trying to pass the buck to the previous administration. they don't want to take accountability and don't want to be transparent. even if the war had to come to an end it should have come to an end on our terms and not cost 13 goldstar families. >> your final thoughts. >> he didn't have to come to an end. the afghan national army and police on a strategic place in the low. afghanistan sits in the middle. we had 2500 troops there at one point. we had 2500 troops all over the world. this did not have to end this way. >> that is right. chad robichaux, congressman cory mills. we appreciate your time. thank you both. >> thank you. meantime first up into nights crime crisis round up. university of north carolina graduate student being held without bond on charges that he shot and killed his faculty advisor. 34-year-old tailei qi is facing first-degree murder in the killing of a professor. this was the scene and boston were more than a dozen teens were arrested after multiple brawls outside a movie theater that was celebrating for dollar movie day. similar brawls broke out in other states over the same movie promotion. chicago police continue to investigate friday night incident where multiple fans were struck by gunfire during a white sox game. a new report indicates the gun was accidentally discharged by one of the women who was struck. adding that the woman had snuck the gun into the stadium by hiding it, quote, in the folds of her belly fat. that's a quote. the white sox defended their decision to continue the game despite the shooting. the fox news news at night common sense department understands brandon johnson has finally solved the city's car at that problem. apparently the solution was super easy. instead of going after all the car thieves which takes resources and manpower, the mayor went after car companies suing kia and hyundai for manufacturing cars that lack the appropriate antitheft measures. common sense has this right. the politicians and the far left soft on crime policies are not the problem. it's the lazy, greedy car companies. chicago does not have an abundance of car thieves. chicago simply has too many cars that are easy to steal. brandon johnson is the same mayor that scolded the media for calling these young retail thieves mobs because the word mob is apparently offensive. instead, they should be referred to as large gatherings. for the record, chicago is experiencing an all-time high for large gatherings. common sense wonders how long we can blame everything and everyone except the ones who commit the crimes? how long before every woman in chicago is required to be 10% stronger lest they be sued by mayor johnson for making their purse way too easy to steal. let's bring in prosecutor and author of wide bad looks good wendy patrick and former los angeles county sheriff alex nueva. great to have you. does anyone believe that the way to handle these things is to go after car companies instead of putting people in jail? >> of course not. they are always going after the wrong target. they can't hold people accountable. the progressive policies have basically eliminated the criminal justice system in many aspects and it's blowing up in their face. let's change the subject and its somebody else's fault. >> this goes on again and again in city after city in the country. they keep pointing at the wrong target. >> that is true. city after city what you are seeing is preplanned demonstrations if you want to call them that. they are not flash mobs. they are coordinated chaos. they are organized on social media. the saving grace is that by good predictive policing they are able to find out what violence will go down wear and get their first. good policing as my colleague knows is not about reaction. it's about prevention. >> speaking of young people, this is from fox 11. now they want young people to where dogtags essentially involves. the moreno valley mall plans to have miners where lanyards that have the names and parents contact information in the event the child misbehaves. the parent would be contacted. if you steal you call the parents. >> i laugh at that. i can only imagine a smash and grab mob of these juveniles with their lanyards and loss prevention saying i need to read your lanyard. you have to laugh at this. >> it is one of those things that it's all ridiculous. people are saying you have lanyards and you call the parents when they steal something. if they want to change genders you cannot call the parents. but if they steal something, you can. >> who makes that call? security guards are not babysitters and not bouncers. they are thrust in the position of doing crowd control along with the store owners. the better solution is probably making a wise investment in our children. my parents used to say show me your friends and i will show you your future. that's a priceless investment by being mentors and role models. make sure they have a focus and a future. not a felony record. >> do your parents know my parents? they said the same thing to me. i say the same things to my daughter's. teens shooting at tacoma officer highlights a rise in juvenile crime. what is really sad is that they are 14 and 15 years old and had no business driving a car and definitely had no business having access to a gun said victoria wondered. she is the tacoma mayor. we have got a ways to go before this gets better. >> it will not get any better anytime soon. justice afternoon pasadena smash and grab robbery. half a million dollars at a jewelry store. they pepper sprayed the owner and he is devastated. and four masked individuals. very coordinated. it was at the fashion center on sunday. same thing. >> it is crazy. lastly, the whole concept as they keep saying we are going after these gangs and they keep arresting people and kicking them back out on the street. >> it is true. i say defunding the police endanger the community. it's more than that when you get these organized groups. there is an empowering sense of unaccountability through a displaced idea that there are safety in numbers. there are cameras everywhere and everybody eventually hopefully will be brought to justice. >> show me your friends and i will show you your future. thank you both. meantime it is 8:20 on the west coast. west coast. hurricane it dahlia strengthening into a category 3. it might already be a

that's a powerful hurricane. meaning it is both the wind and a water event. we will keep our eye on that. box weather correspondent nicole valdes is live in tampa with the latest on the conditions there. how does it look? >> trace, a lot of wind and rain already. this is just the beginning. the storm surge threat is still top of mind for tampa bay officials. as i show you the tempo riverwalk you notice we are starting to see some standing water form on the low lying areas. we are in a zone "a" evacuation area. harbour island and davis island just beside me here have already been evacuated. the main bridge has already been shut down. people told to get off of the islands. the expected storm surge anywhere from 4 to 6 feet. we are talking a life-threatening situation. that is still is what is being forecast is as hurricane idalia approaches the state of florida. you noticed in the distance tampa general hospital. it is on davis islands. that is going to be an area that officials have their eye on and why they have taken this threat so seriously. they recognize that storm surge threat could put those patient flaps inside the only trauma 1 hospital in tampa bay at serious risk. they have already installed flood barriers. the company that developed those stronger and keep all the doctor zen patients inside the hospital safe. meanwhile, it's not the only resource the national guard is you activated. all the emergency rescue cues are on standby ready to respond. >> nicole, we'll get back to as news breaks. thank you. stay safe. first up in tonight's real news

sorts of religious backgrounds who say the inability to opt out of lessons on sexuality is a violation of their fundamental rights. let's bring in bethany mandel co-author of stolen youth. the ron desantis surrogate and founder of action of america. welcome to you both, ladies. you wrote this talking about the revolt of religious parents in montgomery county. the parental reading list or the reading partial list to you released is interesting. it says quoting rainbow revolutionaries, 50 lgbtq plus people who made history. the stonewall riots coming out in the streets and pride puppy aimed at children's age 3 to 5 which asked readers to search for images from a word list that includes intersects, drag queen, underwear and a leather. this is galvanizing a lot of different people. >> yeah, it's incredible. i worked for the free press today about how this has really brought together parents in montgomery county who have never really joined forces before from muslim parents to ethiopian christians to catholics to latter day saints. this has been a really unifying rallying cry. all they are asking for is the ability to have their children not read pride puppy. that's not a big ask. and at the county has stonewalled them. now the legal system, the first round has said you are forced to make your children sit through these readings. >> it really is amazing. moms for liberty is still under attack which means they are doing something right. the new republic rights, moms for liberty recruits a new class of the aggrieved mothers as the summit was set up to involve its own indoctrination. a process that may feel more like giving secret knowledge about how things really work including such vintage conspiracy theory stuff as secret communist, recruiting in every school house. if they were indifferent to this group they wouldn't be getting all this press. >> that is so true. it's astonishing that we are still talking about these things and still having conversations. there are still public schools and schools around the country that are forcing children to read this type of material. it has to stop. the more we see things like this, it adds another reason why we need to see governor desantis in the white house. here in florida he has banned these types of materials in schools. he has banned it through k-12. the more we see it, it's another reason for me to keep supporting governor desantis. it's time for these things to stop. >> a lot of parents have no despair karine jean-pierre was asked about biological boys competing against girls. she said this. >> it is a complicated issue. it is truly a complicated issue with a wide range of views. a wide range of views. there is no yes-or-no answer to this. it is complicated. >> i don't know, bethany. a lot of people believe there is a yes or no and it's not that complicated. >> it's really not. what's again we are seeing the feelings of biological men take precedence over the safety and well-being of women. over and over and over in women's spaces including sports. if you ask any soccer or rugby player when i was a junior in high school i scrimmage against the joe biden boys team. i got a concussion from a ball to the face. my school made a rule never again. we can never have the boys and girls playing together because this is what could have been. and yet now this is becoming a law of the land in schools and states around the country. >> crazy. thank you both for your time. we appreciate it. we have breaking news coming up. coming up, new concern about how

>> steady rain here. no big wins yet. the figures you are citing are all moving in the wrong direction for the people of florida. eight hours ago the wind speed was at 80 miles per hour. now it's at 110 miles per hour. eight hours ago the highest estimate for the storm surge was 12 feet. now it's at 16 feet. eight hours ago there were 12 counties under mandatory evacuation orders. that number has now doubled. all the numbers moving in the wrong direction as this storm gets stronger and stronger. you talk to people even under mandatory evacuation, many of them it's a tough decision whether to leave their homes or stay put and try to ride it out. finally the search and rescue teams, teams with water vehicles and helicopters are coming from miami. but also from other states around the country. they are deploying many of them in orlando to be ready to move out as soon as the wind permits. back to you. >> it's going to be a long night. steve harrigan on the ground. back to you as the news orange. the biden administration said tonight they have disrupted a smuggling group where one person reportedly has ties to isis. the smuggling network use the southern border to get the migrants in. jeff paul is live with more on that story. >> good evening. one thing we should mention about the story is that the fbi has not identified a specific threat in terms of a terrorism plot. but the smuggler who reportedly has ties to isis and they have said to have helped the migrants enter the u.s. let's get this video here. we have the group in question made up of more than a dozen migrants from was becca stand. they were able to enter the u.s. after seeking asylum at the u.s./mexico border. at the time the group reportedly did not raise red flags and has none of their names found in any sort of intelligence databases. the fbi later learned that someone within the smuggling network had helped the group had connections to isis. the white house says after being alerted they disrupted the smuggling network. here's how the white house for extrusion karine jean-pierre responded when asked about why the urgency now when human smuggling networks have long been an issue. >> we have always and will be vigilant here when it comes to making sure that we are protecting our homeland. that is something this president is committed to. that is something that this administration is committed to. we will always be and continue to be. >> the national security council adds they are now vetting and expediting the removal of individuals who fit the profile of being associated with this particular smuggling network. >> jeff, it's really concerning when the southern border is seeing the wrong people come across. thank you. let's bring in investigative reporter sarah bedford and democratic strategist kevin walling. thank you both for coming on. we appreciate it. i want to read this to you. houston keane headline. white house insists there is no sign isis sympathizers smuggling ring brought terrorists into the country. i don't know. a lot of people are skeptical about that. your thoughts? >> certainly it is warranted that people should have concerns about this. the good thing is the biden administration announced that it is so public and these individuals were interdicted. they are surging to the border. this president stands directly behind the fbi as opposed to the republicans that want to in many parts defund the fbi. this is a vital source of investigative policing in this country. working in conjunction with our border control. this is a crisis at the southern border. , democrat that readily admits that. the source is not to defund the fbi but provide more resources. >> the reason that a lot of people are skeptical and don't believe the administration is for things like this when you have the homeland security secretary saying this to congress in july. >> the republican colleagues claim the border is open. is the border open, mr. secretary? >> no, it is not. >> it is wide open. it has been open for 31 months. we have been down their every single day and have documented this. that is not the truth. it's hard to believe anything else that comes out of the administration. your thoughts? >> that is true. to kevin's point surging resources to the fbi doesn't do much to secure the border. the fbi's job is not to secure the border. all the reporting on this clearly suggests that the individuals who crossed the border did so successfully. they did so earlier this year. potentially months ago. they were not detected by the border patrol because there are inadequate resources there. there is a complete lack of focus and commitment to securing the border. it's been an unmitigated disaster for the biden administration. even now a majority of independents and democrats agree. >> i want to put the ap poll a. 69% of democrats say biden is too old. that's a big number if you are a democrat. i've got 15 seconds for each of you to respond. >> i think this president is up for the fight. i just saw him the other day. he is itching to take on whoever the republicans put up. it's the american people to watch him over the next 12 or 15 months as the national campaign plays out. this president is itching for this fight and ready to take on the republicans, whoever they put up. >> sera?
