First it was statues and monuments that were in the sites of activists who critics argued appear determined to erase part of American History without a vote, without a debate and without consensus. Now its Mount Rushmore and fireworks on the latest targets in the countrys growing cancel culture that is absolutely not stopping the president from celebrating.

We think that we are following our Health Departments advice to be very careful about large gatherings, even large gatherings that are outside. We do not think that this is in keeping with the best cdc and department of health guidance. Some Congressional Democrats agree with bowser, telling the secretaries of defense and interior in a letter, the administration, including your agencies should be focusing on helping american families, not on a vanity project for the president. We urge you to immediately suspend any plans of such an event. Meanwhile, fireworks of a different kind in the corner of wall and broad.

Todays announcement proves that our economy is roaring back, is coming back extremely strong. Still, there are concerns about the longterm health of the economy given the sharp rise in new coronavirus cases. In the pensions among some leaders to fall back on shutdown measures as a means of combating the new cases despite a declining death rate. And there are a number of theories about why the death rate continues to decline, including quite possibly better medical care. More younger, healthier covid patience, a weakening virus perhaps, or maybe simply a longer lag time from infection to death. Either way it is certainly good news that the death rate has not increased. Mike. Mike kevin corke leading us off live in washington, many thanks.

Breaking tonight, a Kansas City Police officer is in Critical Condition after getting shot in the head. Police were called to a Mcdonalds Restaurant where the identified suspect was waving a gun, then fled on foot after Police Chased him. Police say the suspect turned an open fire on the officers, striking one. A second officer fired back, killing the suspect. To tacoma, washington, where the thin blue line stickers have been banned from police vehicl vehicles. The tacoma pd says it understands any symbol and cause division and controversy between officers and the public so the controversial decision was made to continue striving for an inclusive environment. How many times does the community have to say this is disrespectful and divisive and has a racist history . How may times does a community have to communicate that before we are not seeing this line used by our public servants, the people we give our tax dollars to . Theres also a lot of other people that can look at that simple and go, yeah, thats a symbol of someone that cares for husbands, fathers, sons, daughters, i mean everything. Its not anything negative, it never has been. Mike republican senator mike lee of utah proposed a nonbinding resolution today condemning mob violence, but one democratic objection by bob menendez of new jersey was enough to kill the motion. This resolution is not controversial. It is the sense of the senate the rising tide of vandalism, mob violence and the mob mentality that feeds it including its cruel and intolerant cancel culture should be condemned by all americans. The resolution reeks of supremacy. It seeks to mischaracterize overwhelmingly what has been the peaceful protests of people peaceful protests of people in the nation. Mike lets talk about fireworks on the senate floor in the latest on actual fireworks for the fourth of july weekend. Acting dhs secretary Ken Cuccinelli, its great to have you, sir. Good to be with you. Mike what is your reaction tto the backandforth there between senators lee and menendez . Its astonishing that any american regardless of party would disagree with the condemnation of mob violence. Bob menendezs comments to senator lees resolution were not directed at the resolution. The resolution speaks specifically for people who are being violent, more vandalizing you are committing vandalism and so forth and we are seeing around the country that President Trump has taken a strong stand against it and maybe thats the key here. Maybe its because senator lee is also standing against the violence and vandalism that President Trump is standing against that senator menendez cant tolerate such a position. And so hes for violence, hes for vandalism and thats a sad, sad thing. Sad enough to see in our country. Its even worse to see it on the floor of the u. S. Senate. Mike ms federal authorities getting serious about rounding up those who are accused of leaving the writing near the white house and molotov cocktail throwers. What your message on that front . The message on that front is we are just getting started. We have hundreds of investigations running across the country. Of course the prosecutions are done by the department of justice. The apartment for my security, Law Enforcement officers are involved in many of these. We protect and defend many of these locations and many of these iconic statues around the country and we are going to continue to do that. We are going to lean forward to do it. Youre going to see that throughout this weekend. Department of all my security has been deeply engaged with both the department of interior, which polices the parks, including Lafayette Park, and a department of justice. At the leadership of President Trump, we are going to continue not only to protect the history of this country, but as President Trump has declared, we are going to prosecute violent violators of the law who vandalize property and history of this country or threaten or hurt other america americans, other people who deserve to be able to be safe. The most basic civil right is the right to be safe where you are and where you live. Mike so its safe to assume there will be plenty of federal presence in terms of making sure federal facilities and property are protected in case any rioters want to cause mayhem over the Holiday Weekend . That is a very safe assumption. And you can thank President Trump for it. Mike this holiday of course is for fireworks. With people using more Hand Sanitizer ever due to covid19, National Security counsel spokeswoman is warning alcohol and fire do not mix, you should not pair flammable items. Its the proverbial sippy for disaster. Your thoughts, sir . Well, as an aficionado of fireworks myself, i take that advice very seriously. We obviously are still fighting covid19. The president speaks about this every day. Really. And here we are going to go celebrate our nations 244th birthday. A lot of people are going to do that outside and in groups, but we need to keep our social distancing as you hear from cdc and simple things like not mixing alcohol and fireworks are going to be on the forefront for as much as we talk about violence at some of the criminal activity, we also dont want people to be involved in accidents, whether its of their own making or others. So you know, god bless america, we hope everybody has a safe july 4th. Mike we know President Trump is made the border wall youth priority. Now the Trump Administration has hired a tech firm to build a virtual border wall. An idea democrats have praised. Fiveyear agreement between u. S. Customs and Border Protection and calls for the company to deploy hundreds of solar powered mobile surveillance towers designed to operate in rugged locations with cameras and thermal imaging. They detect moving objects and feed and Artificial Intelligence system capable of distinction among animals, humans and vehicles, sending location and mapping information right to the cell phones of u. S. Patrol agents. If so is that a little 21st Century Technology to get a handle on our border . It is. And look, President Trump just celebrated 200 miles of brandnew wall system. We say wall system because it also involves surveillance related to the wall. Some of the technology you just described can go places where it is very difficult to build a wall, frankly. We have almost 2,000mile border on our southern border with mexico and we are working on hundreds of miles of wall, not thousands. So having Situational Awareness requires this kind of technology in other parts of the border and the president is very supportive of pursuing this to expand our capabilities of the border, to keep our agents safe and to keep america safe. Mike Ken Cuccinelli from the department of homeland security, thanks so much for your time. Good to be with you, have a great fourth. Mike thank you, you too.
