3:04 pm
confirmed by spotters but seeing rotation that means a tornado could be there running this further south. those big thoarms continue to stretch all the way just to the north side of asheville running you into portions of eastern tennessee. now this is around 1:00 we've been waiting a little bit for round two which actually has better risk of big severe thunderstorms those started to fire up in the last hour. there's a good chance these turn into tornadoes into the evening and gofer night evening hours and into the north side of st. louis, that is a severe warned thunderstorms. winds at 70 miles per hour tornado possibly you see that tag. any one of the discreet cells those are thunderstorms now but winds are right right now that they could start to spin and any one could back tornado and 70 miles per hour winds are powerful enough to do some serious damage. this is really the area we're paying attention to and this is this second line of storms that's not the first line of storms so this is now a four on a scale of five.

for a risk of severe weather we're expecting those thunderstorms i just showed you to become severe into the overnight hours tornadoes included we're back on a four on scale of five here for tornado risk that includes areas here across portion of southern illinois, and then kind of surrounding all of these states that's kentucky, that's tennessee. but again a area here right along the mississippi river where tornadoes are going to be prevalent. we continue to watch that initial round drift out of here and then this continues to be robust until 9 p.m. central time. you're watching all of those storms move across kentucky, move ultimately into ohio. it does wind down as we head overnight jon but there's several hours of severe weather on the way. jon: scary stuff meteorologist adam thank you. >> former trump attending the sold out coca-cola 600 great race is a nascar event with drivers with speeds up to 150 miles per hour.

3:09 pm
summit in switzerland but we don't know if president biden will be the person to attend ever a public invitation from ukraine's leader. ukrainian president volodymr zelenskyy invited biden and xi jinping to attend in june he says having the leaders of two major superpowers there would convey gravity of the world to desire to see the war between russia and ukraine end. during his speech to west point graduateses on saturday president biden doubled down on support for ukraine even as war stretches on now for more than two years. >> there are no american soldiers at war in ukraine. i'm determined to keep it that way. but we are standing strong with ukraine and we will stand with them. reporter: later this evening the president back at the white house after spenting part of his holiday weengsd at his delaware estate there are reports, though, the white house is still strategizing on how to respond to the end of former president trump criminal trial in new york. politico had an interesting bit in which they say, quote, biden
3:10 pm
intends to initially address verdict in a white house setting not a campaign one. to show his statement was to discuss internal deliberations so we don't know when that verdict will happen but the reports are that the white house will have some sort of very public response to this. the president himself will be back on the campaign trail later this week up to philadelphia on wednesday and hearing from democrats up on hill who say it is important to show united front and believe to remove talk of biden not on the ticket out of the way. >> we're well past that conversation. you know, president biden is going to be the nominee we're going to have our convention, and he's going to win in november. reporter: and it it is hard to believe but tomorrow will mark one month until the first presidential debate that's the within that's going to be happening down in atlanta, jon so much earlier than we're used to in presidential politics but biden campaign says they have ads ready to go and ready to fire up to talk about this. between now and the debate a month from now.
3:11 pm
jon. jon: mark meredith at the white house. mark, thank you. >> reason why i'm here. is because thousands of my constituents back in miami are terrified, terrified when the courts in this country are used as weapons to crush our political enemies. donald trump is not the only one going through trial. we all are. jon: that's florida congresswoman maria salazar one who came to new york to show support for donald trump ahead of his trial as it enters final stages she sits on the house foreign affairs and small business committees. what is it congresswoman that made you decide to come up to new york and make that statement? >> thank you for having me exactly for what i said. i represent the city of miami. heart of the cuban exile community or venezuelan and we have seen what's happening in new york before. political trials happen in banana republics not in the united states of america. and i said before, that clip
3:12 pm
that regardless of what you think of donald trump what you think about him. what you feel about him whether you're going vote for him or not it is good for us to tell you that what's happening in new york city it is not what's happening is not part of the american system. the judicial system is revered as part of our american agenda. and that look what's happening. it is being used to crush one of your political opponents not here. not in the united states. jon: now that genie is out of the bottle if former president trump were to be reelected, one can easily imagine the same kind of -- law fair if you will being inflicted on his political enemies. >> well not really. and that's not where we expecting from any government or any administration. we have to -- we have to preserve the angle american agenda. we have to preserve the american exceptionality and that is why we're here, and that's why i'm saying it. if we -- in this community, we know very well what's happening in this
3:13 pm
country. it is impossible let me just give you three pieces of info. so you see that what's happening in new york is inconceivable. it is impossible to bring anyone to trial if you don't have the charges clearly defined, a, b, there are no audiorecordings or television cameras inside the courtroom. why? those two things are very suspicious. the fact that six years ago the federal prosecutors, federal prosecutors did not want to touch this case, and then now state prosecutors believe that it is good time to be -- to be put trump on trial because we have five or there are five -- going to have elections five months from now it is all very suspicious and i go back. we cannot destroy what we have regardless of whether you're republican or democrat. we're all americans and we love the system. so let's preserve it. jon: you talked about venezuelans and cubans whom you represent in great numbers in miami.
3:14 pm
we have a lot of people coming across the southern border right now. chuck schumer reintroduced the border security bill in the senate. it died again. but he says it's the republicans fault because republicans want to make it a political issue. what's your response? >> what is the evidence once again? president biden has been in the white house for three and a half years. for three and a half years, we've had open borders. we have eight million people who have come into this country. those are facts. two million got aways. you look at the border you see that if you talk to the border patrol they are overwhelmed is the first time in the history of this country. that an administration whether it is republican or democrat has allowed for this chaos to occur. and now, the democrats like mr. schumer he brings up this bill that he knows very well that is not going to pass and it is just a little band-aid on a very big wound. president biden has decided to go to the southern border, it's the worst thing and i'm talking
3:15 pm
to my fellow hispanics the largest minority in the country the most important minority in this country. is that what biden has done to the hispanics, by allowing that border to be open is the worst thing that he could have done to our community in the last 50 years. you know why? because subject of immigration to fix both parties need to fix immigration has been poisoned to that word is poisened because we have to first look at the border. we've got to seal the border so we can put some order. you see so it is worst thing that could have happened and that's why i'm so -- i'm so distraught because they are, immigration needs to be, needs to be talked about but not right now because look at what's happening at the border. jon: the president -- that's the problem with politics in d.c.. and that's why americans have lost -- some faith in it. jon: president spokeswoman says it is not his fault. listen. >> why should he have to do it
3:16 pm
unilaterally in a legislative way and let's not forget. i know -- but wait -- so you're right he took many executive actions before. but in order to deal with what's happening at the border, in order to deal with a broken immigration system, you need law you need legislation. you need to -- it to happen in a bipartisan way. jon: we have just about 15 seconds for you to respond to karim jean-pierre. >> i maria salazar had the immigration reform bill that is now in congress democrats did not look at it. >> congresswoman maria salazar, thanks for coming on want to. >> my pleasure. jon: and coming up, on the "fox report," hamas terrorists launched their first attack on tel-aviv in months. as israeli troops continue to move deeper into rafa. this is house speaker mike johnson extends an invitation to benjamin netanyahu to address the u.s. congress.

it is important that we especially at this time reaffirm that commitment to them. jon: hamas set this war in motion. it's still holds maybe 150 hostages that it took on the day that it came across the border and murdered civilians and raped women. so why is hamas and the palestinians, why are they enjoys so much worldwide support right now? >> it's interesting to me because if the protesters you know, one we cannot leave them behind but we also can't have a president who allows college protesters to dictate our foreign policy. it is really -- you know if there's about humanitarian aid i would love to know where college protesters were and have been for the last i don't know over a decade where syrian president bashar al-assad has been murdering his civilians and if this is about humanitarian aid but you're seeing this worldwide this motivation to somehow back -- you know, a terrorist organization that has been, you

hostage their college campus and dictate our foreign policy? we need to show a backbone and unfortunately we have not seen that from the white house thus far and it does need to think back to afghanistan and disastrous withdrawal and can't afford to let this happen again and with a role that's important that america plays on the world stage, right now we need to reaffirm our support it our allies. not just by words but by action. and so, i have been very frustrated but to see, you know, a lack of responsibility and a lack of standing up, you know, and standing with allies by the president an i don't know that's going help them come november. >> on a per capita basis october 7th far worst for israelis than 9/11 was for this country eight month after 9/11 we had a war going in afghanistan. we invaded that country about and we didn't have the world telling us to back down. >> right and we -- you know president bush stood there and, you know, the world hears you. we are going to get these people

3:46 pm
so experts in the life guard industry have advocated in recent years for communities to increase pay, and waive training fees. new york city has actually eased some of its hiring requirements to help. its shortage boosted pay there's also hiring bonus, bonuses for returning life guards and big apple. as the city works to increase life guards staffing, these drones will be used to drop nation devices to swimmer in distress alert that help season the way here's new york city mayor eric adams with this. >> this crisis not going away. and we need to deal with this, some beaches that will have shortening hours or may not even be able to have a full compliment because we have a life, a national life guard problem. that we're trying to resolve here in the city. reporter: and according to the cdc drowning deaths have been higher in recent years. so it is very serious to always swim where there is a life guard watching. jon back to you. jon: good was advice there.
