(kev) ... i guess we're movin'. arthel: well, the future of president biden's re-election campaign is reportedly up for

discussion three days after his shaky debate performance. calls for him to drop out of the race continue as do the talks of democrats frantically looking for an alternative to a nominee to take his place. well only to a brand new -- welcome the a brand new hour of "fox news live," i'm arthel neville. eric: i'm eric shawn. the president is now back at camp david where he spent those days last week preparing for the debate, and the white house is strongly pushing back on reports the first family is there for a heart to heart and whether he should today in the race. hay point out to the long-scheduled family reunion there well before last thursday's night. but in rallies after, mr. biden came on strong to cheering supporters. the campaign saying he is not going anywhere. some top democrats are said to be voicing concerns behind closed doors, while in public they are standing strongly behind the president. >> there was that same kind of a freakout after my debate, and i

might even say i had a more difficult evening than the president did, and here i am right now having conversation. >> i want you to know i came home to california south and north, and people are for joe biden and kamala harris. >> he should stay in this race. he should demonstrate it going forward his capacity to lead the country. arthel: let's go to lucas tomlinson live at the white house and, of course, lucas, you've heard all of the support few f president biden that's continuing to come in. we're still waiting the hear what the voters have to the say after the debate last thursday, and we do ask this though as this is the topic of discussion this weekend following that debate, what happens if president biden steps aside before the dnc roll call? >> reporter: that's a good question, arthel. off the top, one of the key issues is cash. you can't just turn over this giant war chest from the biden-harris campaign to

anybody. that can't just be handed to someone like governor gavin newsom. the only person that can take that cash if joe biden were to step down would be his vice president, kamala harris. and as you to know, her poll numbers are less than the president's. but you asked the question what happens if the president were to step down before the the democratic national convention in chicago in ahing august, let's take a look at what those next steps would be. we'll read them altogether here. the delegates will no longer be pledged to him and it's certainly an open season and any candidate eligible to be president could emerge including colluding candidates who did not run in the primaries. now, it's notable that no democratic lawmakers haul called for the -- has called for the president to step down, they're all in lockstep for president biden. >> i think he's the only democrat who can beat donald trump. and let me tell you, we had the single best day of grassroots fund raising after the debate. the first poll that we saw after the debate showed joe biden

gaining ground on donald trump. >> that whole abandon biden thing, that's the dumbest [bleep] i've ever heard. i mean, if you are more inclined to vote for democrat or be a democrat, if you're willing to walk away from joe bide, you're helping trump. >> reporter: also appearing on "fox news sunday" was ohio senator j.d. vance. >> that's ultimately what the debates really showed is that we have two candidates, one who can't do the job, one who has failed to do the job if that's joe biden, and donald trump who both could do the job but has already done it successfully. >> reporter: now, "the new york times" editorial board has called for biden to step down, never a good sign for an elected democrat. quote, the confidants and aides who have encouraged the president's candidacy and who sheltered him from unscripted appearances should recognize the damage to mr. biden's standing and the unlikelihood that he can repair it. as we mentioned, president biden is huddling at camp david with his family likely talking about

his future. as you mentioned, the white house is denying it, but there's the numerous reports to the contrary that this is the subject, and one can imagine if you're spending the whole weekend, the whole day, at least, at camp david that the subject would come up either way, of course. arthel: and, of course, this was a planned family weekend, this was before the debate this was already on the schedule, but let me ask you this, lucas, meaning that this was not an emergency call for the family to huddle and say what's happening with president biden and should he step aside. but we will continue the conversation, the what if, the hypothetical if president biden steps aside after the democratic national convention roll call. >> >> reporter: we also have to go to the rule book far that -- for that ooh too, arthel. it's also pretty simple, in fact, if we could just pull that up. the dnc chair a, jamie harrison, would consult with democratic leaders, give a recommendation to the dnc, and that committee would decide a new nominee.

and the chairman of the democratic committee's been adamant this weekend that president biden, this is chairman harrison, he's been adamant that biden isn't going anywhere. >> what i'm seeing in terms of support of joe biden because folks understand this, that joe biden has always had our back, and we're going to have his. so we're still riding with biden. >> reporter: now, former presidents have also rushed to president biden's debate. barack obama posting bad debate nights happen, trust america i know. this is a choice between someone who has fought for ordinary if folks his entire life and someone who only cares about himself, and former president bill clinton who's younger than joe biden: here's what i know, facts and history matter. joe biden has givens us three years of solid leadership. and it is notable that the biden campaign, arthel, has said that they have raised over $33 million since the debate if on thursday night.

that's certainly notable. it could play a factor going forward. you saw the president campaigning not just in north carolina, the day day after the debate which in people said he sounded very strong, but also two fundraisers including in the hamptons and also in new jersey, arthel. arthel: and, yes, you heard the quote riden with biden. let me ask you quickly, lucas, what about the other side? does the trump camp want to continue this race against biden, or would they prefer someone else? if. >> reporter: well, i was down there in chesapeake for his big rally on friday,he actually brought it up in his remarks. he said he would love if bind stays in the race. he didn't think biden would leave because no other candidate policy as high as a president joe biden. he was correct on that according to the latest polls. now, if the democrats were to name someone else, we'd have to see another round of polling, of course, and and everything changes everything, but the former president would like to continue to campaign and debate joe biden.

i asked his spokeswoman if president biden would want -- excuse me, if former president trump would like to debate president biden again. she said, absolutely, anytime, any place. that's another issue, of course, that second debate that looms in september. arthel: september 10 19th. okay, lucas tomlin tomlinson, thank you. eric? eric mean tile -- meantime, former president donald trump said he will announce his running mate in mid july. several potential picks were at the debate thursday. christina coleman on who could potentially get the nod and looks at the contenders. hey, christina. >> reporter: hi, eric. there are lots of reports that donald trump plans to announce his running mate before or during the republican national convention which starts on july 15th in mill what -- milwaukee, so these vp candidates could be in the home stretch. take a look at the reported top con contenders including ohio senator j.d. vance, senator marco rubio of florida and tim scott of south carolina.

they have been out in full force showing support for donald trump in plenty of tv interviews, and president joe biden's very rough and sometimes painful to watch with performance at the debate has certainly given the vp candidates plenty to talk about in the coming days a especially as some media outlets and political pun if admits call on president biden to drop out of the race. senator j.d. vance gave his response to that suggestion today on "fox news sunday." >> it would be an incredible insult to democratic voters to have this primary process that was effectively rigged in favor of joe biden and then at the last minute when joe biden has a disastrous debate performance try to switch him out. >> reporter: there is also some buzz over virginia governor glenn youngkin who joined forces with trump on friday at a rally in virginia. the crowd was fresh off the debate and very fired up. they chanted vice president when youngkin took the stage, and trump praised the governor's

work. >> we're also grateful to be joined by the governor of this magnificent commonwealth. his name happens to be glenn youngkin, and he's one of the -- [cheers and applause] greatest governors in the country. >> reporter: a number of gop vp contenders with were in the spin room on thursday including governor doug burgum who has campaigned on cutting taxes and strengthening the economy. he did the an interview with jesse -- jesse watters on friday criticizing biden's performance and his response to major concerns facing voters. >> joe biden had no answer on inflation or the border, the issues affecting every american, every day. >> reporter: so, again, as the vp contenders are showing their support for donald trump as we all wait to see who he will choose as his running mate. eric? eric: christina, thank you so much. arthel: aaa's predicting a record number of people traveling for the fourth of july

holiday, but severe weather could complicate a lot of plans, so here's a live look at the flightaware misery map. more than 3,000 reported delays and more than 700 cancellations nationwide. that's happening just today. c.b. cotton live in new york city with more on this. >> c.b., what more can you tell us? >> reporter: hi, arthel. that severe weather is the reason why we had to bring our live shot here inside headquarters, and these storms are a sign that summer is in full swing. and the travel numbers also show that travel is going to exceed pre-pandemic totals. arthel, people are a taking advantage of vacation time and remote work flexibility. i want to get right to the breakdown. aaa says nearly 661 million people -- 61 million people are going to get behind the wheel, and nearly 6 million are going to be catching flights. the great news, aaa says domestic air fair -- airfare tickets are cheaper than this time last year.

minimal travel is expected tomorrow, but we've got some tips for the next few days. tuesday, july 2nd through independence day from 2 p.m. to around 6-7 p.m. there's going to be heavy congestion on roadways. so you'll want to get if on the road before noon or just wait and leave later in the evening. and if you're heading to the airport, hear are some -- here are some quick tips. >> the best thing to do is basically use the ap to do all your changes that you need to do because that's the most efficient way to do it. the people at the airport, the customer service people, are going to be bombarded, and they're going tock in a bad moo. if you can travel carry-on only, it gives the airlines in opportunity to actually lose your luggage, and if you do check either have air tags so you can keep track of your bags on your own as opposed to just relying on the airline. >> reporter: this record-setting holiday travel come, again, with the threat of severe storms aa long i-995, especially this afternoon.

this could do definitely cause some flight delays and cancellations so, arthel, a great tip. always make sure you check your airline's app before you leave for the airport. i'm jealous of everyone who's traveling for the fourth of july. arthel: no, don't be. i think the best thing to do is stay put, that's what i'm thinking. >> reporter: you're probably right. arthel: all right, c.b. cotton, thank you. >> the fact is that putin is a war criminal. he's killed thousands and thousands of people. and he has made one thing clear, he wants to reestablish what was part of the soviet empire. not just a piece, he wants all of ukraine. that's what he wants. and then you think he'll stop there? eric: president biden, of course, talking tough against russia and vladimir putin on the debate stage thursday night. "the wall street journal" reporting that some treasury department staffers are displeased that sanctions have not been tough enough on the russian energy sector. a a aa says today's national gas average is at a $3.49 per

gallon. that's 5 cents cheaper compared to last year. why are some of the sanctions supposedly not as tough as they could be? john jordan, former naval intelligence officer, overseer at stanford institution joins us now. first off, what does a president no matter who the president is, how does an administration try to balance gas prices to keep them stable considering all the a turmoil in the international scene? >> the issue, eric, is our long-term energy policy. we need to be producing more energy domestically and be less reliant on these foreign sources, especially some of these countries which are outwardly hostile to the united states and do things where we have to put sanctions on them when, in fact, we could be making this oil -- developing these energy sources here. eric: in terms of some of the sanctions according to "the wall street journal" that people are displeads at or in the treasury department, for example, the other week they sanctioned russian banks, did not sanction the oil industry and new

sanctions. one of the russian tanker companies, they have9 -- 92 ships, they kept 14 not sanctioned. no reason for that -- the reason for that, they say, is so that oil traders can still use those hips. are they creating loophole? >> yeah, absolutely. this is all about election and pleasing the american consumer. afterwards the administration will be all too happy to see energy prices spike because of the green agenda. sanctions are widely misunderstood, eric. sanctions are not something you just impose and walk away and declare victory. sanctions require ongoing effort and monitoring and if intelligence gathering to understand the work-around as some of these adversarial companies develop, shell companies and the like. and then you go after those shell companies and update the sanctions. and you also a impose second secondary sanctions on those businesses or entities to drive business. one way to really go after this would be to go after the they're

final insurance market -- maritime insurance market making sure those hulls are not insurable. you do that in conjunction with kicking banks out of swift and secondary sanctions on businesses that do business with these pariah states. but it's an ongoing effort, and it requires commitment and political will. eric: and you said the administration would be happy to sew energy prices spike. they've always said they're trying to get control on that. >> well, yeah, they say one thing, but look at what the left assisted in doing. the green new deal, they talk about carbon taxes, for example. look what happens in my state of california with the state taxes imposed on energy. they use hydrocarbon as a source. come november 6th should they win, they'll be all too happy to see energy prices strikes which is why the strangling domestic energy production, pipeline projects and the like with regulations and denials of

permits and such. eric: let's take a look at some of the production with russia, for example, the amount of oil they're baseically being allowed to produce. iran, 1.6 million barrels a day. russia, 7.3 million barrels despite the war, the invasion in ukraine. but, i mean, guess what? you don't hear this very often, the good old united states of america, we're producing a record amount, "forbes" if says more than 13 million barrels a day. that's 7% up from last year. so domestically under this administration we're producing more oil, wouldn't that potentially bring gas prices down? would that help? >> ultimately, america consumes about 20 million barrels a day, so we're still in a shortfall. and we have proven reserves such that production in the united states could exceed our domestic demand which, of the -- in fact, was the case under president trump. there's a long lead time for this, and the administration is choosing to squelch the the

american energy industry, and it's just i allowing these countries to import to us right now in a short-term effort to keep prices down. eric: at the same time, the biden administration set to renew oil drilling in alaska. how do they balance that? on one hand, they did improve something new in alaska, we are at a record high in terms of production or but you've still got vladimir putin sell his oil on the market. >> they're sliply, no -- slippery, no pun intended. permits haven't been done yet, so that's kind of saying one thing and doing nothing which is what the administration is doing writ large. they're trying to strangle the american energy industry through regulation. the the administration has imposed $1.4 trillion worth of regulations primarily on the american energy sector, basically to pit out of

business. and they won't seriously go after a some of these foreign entities, or at least they won't until after november because they understand the political importance of gas price. and it's not only gas at the pump, eric, it is also about energy prices fighting their way into every corner of the economy whether it's transporting goods to market plastics, even farming. so inflation is a real energy component, and we saw a lot of that that in the 'a 70s. it's not just monetary policy. eric: oh, man, don't bling bring that up. i know the gas line, remember the oil embarrass bar go? well, hopefully we won't get back to that. john jordan, always good to see you. thank you so much and have a great july 4th. >> you too, eric. good to see you. eric: of course. a. arthel: the supreme court set to rule tomorrow on whether former president trump is 'em moon from criminal prosecution. the landmark decision will determine if trump can stand trial for charges related to the

january 6th insurrection and violent riot on the capitol. madeleine rivera has more from the supreme court. >> reporter: there are at least three decisions9 that the supreme court has yet to release, but the case involving former president trump's cheap of presidential immunity is that the most anticipatedded one. this semistems from his d.c. election interference indictment. last august former president trump was charged with four federal felony counts. trump's lawyers argue trump cannot be criminally charged for any official actions he took as a president. special counsel jack smith says no person is above the raw, including the president of the united states. in december a federal judge refused to its miss the charges, and an appeals court man mousily rejected -- unanimously rejected trump's argument he cannot be

prosecuted. some justices seemed open to granting some level of protection for former presidents. >> the expectations is they may come up with a nuanced view and send this back. now, that's important because if they send it back, it may be for the trial court to determine what here was part of an initial function. that will take time. and the lock is ticking. >> or the supreme court is also expected the hand down a ruling which could impact how social media platforms regular a hate the content posted by their -- users. arthel: madeleinely very that -- rivera, thank you. eric: according to a scathing report from the national transportation board, critical missteps in east palestine, ohio. coming up, one resident who's demanding accountability for more than a year joins us to tell you the effect on her. ♪ ♪ t two weeks.

♪ arthel: the deadlocked jury in the karen read murder trial will be back at it tomorrow after the judge told them friday to keep clipping. read is charged with the second-degree murder of her boyfriend, boston police officer john o'keefe. madison scarpino is live in

atlanta with the very latest on this. madison. >> reporter: arthel, there has been several days of jury deliberations in a trial that has lasted over two months. and the jury still can't agree with on a verdict. prosecutors are accusing karen read of hitting her 46-year-old boyfriend, john o'keefe, with her suv and leaving him out in a by his ard. the off-duty police officer was found bad ifly injured outside -- badly injured outside another police officer's home in canton, massachusetts, back in january 2022. he later died. prosecutors say read was furious with o'keefe over their relationship and killed him after a night of drinking. but read says she dropped her boyfriend off at the home where he was found for a late night party. her defense attorney claims read is not the killer and says o'keefe was likely beaten inside the home, bitten by a dog and left outside. read says she's being framed. >> how do i feel about the case

against me? there is no case against me. >> after eight weeks? >> after eight weeks. it's smoke and mirrors, and it's going through my private life and trying to contrive a motive that was never there. >> reporter: on friday, a days after deliberations, the jury gave a judge a note that said this -- >> dear judge, i am writing to inform you on behalf of the jury that despite our exhaustive review of the evidence and our diligent consideration of all disputed evidence, we have been unable to reach a unanimous verdict. >> reporter: the prosecution thinks or jurors will eventually come to a decision. the defense does not. if the jury cannot if ultimately agree on a verdict, there would likely be a mistrial. several of read's passionate supporters have been gathering outside the courthouse every day of this trial. >> yeah, we're very upset. >> i've seen people have breakdowns here, literally a breakdown.

they're, like, losing their cookies here. >> we're really statued, don't you think? >> it's like holding your breath. >> reporter: and there are protesters who strongly believe read is guilty, and if the jump does find karen read guilty of sec-degree murder, her most serious charge, she could be sentenced to life in prison. arthel? arthel: a very emotional a trial there. madison scarpino, thank you very much. eric. eric: arthel n a hearing on the ohio toxic train derailment that happened in february of last year, the national transportation safety board accused more folk southern railway of trying to interfere with its investigation. the board also said the decision to vent the toxic chemicals from the train and burn them as well was ill-informed and unnecessary. >> was the vent and burn necessary to prevent a tank rupture? >> as i stated in my presentation, the answer is, no. eric: norfolk southern said in a statement to fox news, quote: at all times norfolk southern

cooperated fully is and ethically with the investigation, with full transparency. board members were always motivated by a desire to insure they had all the relevant information for their independent evaluation and by a shared commitment to advance rail safety. but it really has affected the people of that community, and one of the east palestine residents joins us now. linda murphy has suffered from that derailment for years. linda, welcome. first, what is your reaction to what you have heard during the ntsb hearings? >> well, thanks for having me, eric, i really appreciate it. kind of surprised, kind of not surprised. i have a notebook full of notes that i took during the time that i was there, and i can't pinpoint one thing over another that seems more egregious. it is just ridiculous, the amount of information that we

received that, again, points to nor if folk southern as just dropping the ball so many times from releasing the manifest or the contents in a tamely -- timely manner in order for first responders to handle the initial derailment correctly to the last statement that you read which is completely inaccurate if you listen to jennifer -- speak on how norfolk handled it. and they actually tried to overthrow the investigators from the ntsb and force them into using investigative information that norfolk southern came up with on their own, not using anything from the derailment, but actually going out and purchasing commercial things to come up with this data that is not even relevant to the derailment itself. so just a lot of disgusting deception going on, just another incident of we've got

commodities over communities going on, and it's, it's just, it's what we've been used to, but it doesn't make it right. eric: jennifer, the ntsb chief investigator. they said it was an overheated wheel bearing. that train was going for 20 miles. it wasn't detected and then this happened and the venting happened, and there was vinyl chloride. and you have had it detected in your blood. tell us about that and the dangers of these chemicals that people were breathing in. >> well, the release of the vinyl color ride, as they -- chloride, as they stated multiple times, 1000% not derek 100% not necessary. the tanker was in no risk of overheating. matter of fact, you needed to add another add ative to have that occur -- additive. there was no risk of that, and it had to be constantly heated and the heat increasing to the

tank. there was no damage of that. and how we went from one to five being released, nobody can answer that question either. with having the vinyl color are ride in my system -- chloride in my system, you know, that decision has repercussions for the community. that decision that was completely unnecessary has created upset on top of the derailment itself and the chemical that it released. this has created a whole other nightmare. you know, we went to multiple meetings and we were told we cannot remove the vinyl chloride from your system, but we can treat the liver cancers that it causes. eric: so that directly, you have been told, can cause cancer directly? >> yes. yes. eric: wow. finally, what do you hope -- what can happen? can this be resolved in any way? if what would you like to see? >> you know, i wish i had a good answer for that, and i wish i had something hopeful. i will say that from the nt sr.

b coming and being honest and forthcoming with what their findings are was absolutely refreshing and something that we are not used to here because i think that things have been covered up since day one. and when we have been struggling to get answers anywhere, we've just faced a brick wall. and i really hope that more agency ises come forward and provide the truth just like the ntsb did, and i hope we can get some answers. what this resolution is and what it's going to look like, i just don't know. this is going to be a long-term battle, and the outcomes are unknown. eric: well, we wish you the very best and the very best in your health and those of your friends and family. linda murphy, we'll follow the struggle of the people of your community of east palestine. thank you for joining us. >> thank you. eric: of course.

french president e man well macron called the surprise vote after his central alliance was beaten by marine la pen's far-right national rally earlier this month. tonight after the exit polls placed her in the lead, she thanked voters but said nothing is whereon -- won, and the second round will determine the outcome. her protege, 28-year-old jordan bardella a, would be prime minister if the party wins outright next week, and macron has said he won't ten down before his presidential term expires in 2027, but cohabitation to would weak withen him at home and on the world stage. spend if. >> reporter: my dear compatriots, democracy has spoken, and the french people have placed the national rally and its allies on top and have practically erased macron's bloc. >> reporter: yeah, and meanwhile in the u.k., after 14 years in power for the right-wing conservative, it appears the left-wing labour

party is on the cusp of taking over. labour's kier starmer promises economic stability, cutting national health wait times and recuting teachers while rich shi sunak hopes to retain his position, but critics say he seems out of touch with ordinary people. >> i think that probably has affected people's views of him as well as the fact that he's really had trouble manage his party and is seen generally as a kind of weak leader. >> reporter: yeah. those results in the u.k. election will start to trickle in when polls close shortly after that night on july 4th. arthel: okay. you'll be on top of that for us, stephanie bennett, in london. thank you. eric? if. eric: former israeli hostage speaks out for the very first time since she was rescued from hamas captivity. in a video address, she said that her biggest worry during those to horrendous 246 days was her parents. she went on to remind the world it cannot forget the hostages who are still suffering under
