Nbc 10s Brian Thompson reports. At liberty state park, not just cars being turned around, so were baby strollers, bicyclists as well, told to ride somewhere else. I just learned how to ride a bike. This is my first bike ride and to have encountered this is disappointing. Outside the governors office, protesters voicing their unhappiness, even as the governor managed to find state dollars to put up these signs outside his office and at state parks blaming Assembly Speaker Vincent Prieto for the shutdown, saying that prieto wont compromise over his effort to give the state more control of insurance giant horizon blue cross blue shield. I have compromised. I have listened. What i want to be clear to all of you, i will not capitulate. A rare perhaps first time joint address to the legislature in the senate because the governor was banned from the assembly where the speaker kept the voting board open for nearly 24 hours, trying to force breakaway democrats to vote for a budget to send to the governor. The speakers ally is coming up with their own blame game signs for christie, Speaker Prieto saying he outright said lies, alternative facts. Strong Union Support for the speaker in this battle even as most senators are siding with the governor based on his promise and not to veto any of their spending plans. But at Motor Vehicle centers like this in south jersey, closed until further notice, anger and frustration. Get your act together. Were going to vote soon. At Island Beach State Park on what would have been its busiest weekend of the year, a similar scene of people turned away, even as the governors family came down to the state owned beach house here.

He honored veterans in washington during the first annual president ial freedom rally. He urged unity and religious freedom and spoke out against the media saying the fake news is trying to silence us. It may be the fourth of july weekend, holiday, but the president is not taking a break from twitter. Take a look. Yesterday, the president tweeted my use of social media is not president ial. It is modern day president ial. That comment followed bipartisan criticism of mr. Trumps tweeted insults against two msnbc hosts. Here is how president trumps tweets played out yesterday. First, a friendly shoutout with happy canada day and went back to his feud with the host of morning joe calling them crazy and dumb as a rock. The president then targeted more than two dozen states refusing to submit data to his Voter Fraud Commission by tweeting the question what are they trying to hide. A republican governor gave this answer. I would be very hesitant to send out voter data that is available here in arkansas into a national database. The governors who are not participating say there are privacy concerns and fears that the data could be used to disqualify legitimate voters.

What are the chances that republicans will be able to get enough of their leadership to sign on and what kind of role is the white house playing in all of this . I think the bottom line is if they couldnt get it done before the fourth of july, hard to figure out how theyll pull it off after they come back. The more it sits for public debate, the more senators stew over it, the more they hear from constituents, the more theyre opposed to it. And thats whats been happening so far. The long they are bill sat out there, the opposition has grown. It has not shrunk. You can join chuck todd as he sits down with Health Secretary tom price and delaware senator tom carper among others on meet the press this morning. It comes your way at 10 30 here on nbc 10.
