high-stakes meeting of democrats on biden's future. we will begin with lucas tomlinson live in harrisburg pennsylvania for the president will speak after his current stop in philly. height lucas. >> as you mentioned a busy day for president biden here in pennsylvania. of course a critical battleground state a state he has made more trips to as president than any other of course outside of his home in delaware. the president getting the day leaving wellington arriving in philadelphia greeting dignitaries at the airport in philadelphia including pennsylvania senator john fetterman has been a staunch supporter president biden. it's been very vocal sink president biden should not be dropping out of the race he should stick in it. you mention off the top president biden speak at historically black church in philadelphia. that is going to make his way here to the capitol of pennsylvania and harrisburg them in front of union hall or president biden is going to meet supporters. there is a loud chorus from

democratic congressman but former congressman tim ryan from ohio says president biden needs to step aside but here's what he said early on "fox news sunday" with shannon bream. >> i was very frustrating and i think of that is what really got under the skin of a lot of members of congress. this is not like we get participation trophies and congratulations you did the best you could. this is a sporting event you throw three interceptions the coach pulls the quarterback. if you are a pitcher not getting the job t then they done the hin fingers left and right the manager goes in and pulls the picture out. >> and now david axelrod is petting a new piece on cnn.com praise been very vocal sink president biden needs to step aside for bruce calling him delusional said his efforts after that disastrous debate the interview that abc did not quite go as planned. did not give us many people he said on the big question now threatens his campaign whether

he still has the stamina and mental acuity to serve for four more years in the world's toughest job. the 81 y 81 year old president offered little assurance beyond a proud of his first term accomplishments. of course talking right there on the president's performance on abc the interview with george stephanopoulos. earlier on fox news as an eight we had a presidential historian who accurately predicted donald trump would win back in 2016. here's his take it with the democrats need to do or should not be when it comes to the convention this summer. >> and delegates could and fact decide to replace it president biden. but, based on history that would be a disaster to have a convention brawl. what do all of these politicians, political operatives, journalists, pendants have in common who are calling for biden to leave the ticket? zero track record in predicting

elections. cooks a short time from now president biden be coming to a harrisburg, speaking in the union hall. i would say getting in here today was much easier than a week ago in chesapeake former president donald trump spoke in front of 10,000 people we had to get out of the car about a mile from the rally point to date we drove up here and did a live shop for you with no problem. alicia: a striking difference but lucas tomlinson traveling with the president thank you. griff: what can we expect to come out of this afternoon's virtual meeting of house democratic leaders as the calls for biden to step down and pile up? for that part of the sort let's go to madeleine rivera who is alive in washington. >> what started as a drip drip of democratic lawmakers calling on the president to step aside could turn into a broken dam when congress returns from july 4 recess tomorrow. several of them when the president to take a good hard look at his electability.

>> he should be mopping the floor with donald trump. joe biden is running against a criminal it should not even be close and there's only one reason that it is close and that's the president's agent. >> so far 5 five house democrats have publicly called for the president to leave the race but there is a good chance that number could go up in the coming days but house minority leader hakeem jeffries is in navigating the turmoil within his caucus. publicly his voice is support of the president after the debate privately is kept his ears open listening to members concerns like the fear of the president could jeopardize democrats chances of flipping the house in november. his virtual menu at the top house and gems underscoring the urgency of the moment. >> there are colleagues you feel very strongly he should stay. and colleagues who have publicly expressed and a lot of people in between i think there is going to beat -- make the media's going swarm. they are going to put kerosene

on the fire. >> connecticut senator chris murphy thanks the president only has a limited amount of time to convince voters he has what it takes to serve a second term. >> i do not know the interview on friday night did enough to answer those questions. and so i think this a week is going to be absolutely critical the president needs to do more. >> it is unclear whether the president will drop out of the race to matter how loud the calls for him to do so might get on capitol hill. griff: madeleine rivera and washington thank you. alicia: meantime former president trump has not held a campaign rally in more than a week. laying low leave in the spotlight on president biden struggles but as always he's been vocal on the social media platform is sealed to set to hold two rallies later this week. madison has more on trump's latest job of president biden. >> former president trump has not had any big public appearances or rallies this

week. he did have a lot to say on "truth social" about president biden's debate performance and border policies. the former president slamming the president over the border, high taxes and record crime among other things. he even took a sarcastic jab at president biden urging him to stay in the race for the former president says in part quote crooked joe biden should ignore as many critics and move forward. with the strength and with his power and far-reaching campaign. he should be sharp, precise and energetic just like he was in the debate. it is been a good week for team trunk postdebate drama among democrats, major front raising both mondays and bombshell supreme court decision on presidential immunity. since the ruling the judge in trump's new york hush money at trial agreed to postpone his sentencing. yesterday the florida judge and trumps classified documents case is at delaying several deadlines for the former president's legal

team is saying there are still questions on whether trumps actions fell under his official duties as president and would therefore be immune from prosecution. here's what attorney jonathan turley said this morning on "fox news sunday." >> some of this may be official conduct we can overcome the presumption and some of this is purely private conduct. he may be able to succeed in threading that needle. some of his case is going to beat knocked off. frankly those two opinions rip their wings up this case for. >> these delays will make it really hard for the trial to happen before the election. both sides have until july 21 to submit arguments on how presidential immunity impacts this case and as you said former president trump is set to hold rallies in florida on tuesday, and pennsylvania on saturday back to you. >> okay madison thank you so much. griff: thank you. now for more on this let's bring in jason former utah congressman

and fox news contributor. jason, it is abundantly clear it is a make or break day and certainly week. something that caught my eye this morning was axioms, you may have seen this writing about just how real and intense the pressure is on biden in the calls against and they write this president biden says nothing besides an active god will persuade him to quit his reelection campaign. but outside biden's protective bubble a fast growing number of democrats are praying for and plotting a more earthly intervention. they want everyone from the obama's two congressional leaders to bag biden to drop out of the race by this friday. you are in congress, you are friendly with calls like the one leader jeffries is holding. how do you see this going? >> democrats created this problem buried the demise of the cognitive capabilities of our president did not happen last

week. this has been on full display for a few years. it was a daily drumbeat. shame on the national media for not reporting it more. i think they knew the story and suddenly they are replete with all sorts of sources that can suddenly come up with all this information for that information is out there before they were just covering it up. the democratic leaders had to have known. harris had to have known i need it done in other within the white house and new. i even wrote a book called the puppeteers it was so obvious years ago i wrote a book how the white house -- mick joe biden to stop making decisions. they created this nastily got to live in it and they are desperate they want to get out of it. i do not think joe biden is moving i think jill biden likes being the president because she is controlling a lot of this. griff: jason this came campaign believes their core message about what is at stake in this

election that donald trump poses an existential threat to democracy is going to win despite the shortcomings of a biden. here's a little bit would put together a montage of swords of a president biden central message. listen here. >> how would you describe what is at stake in this election? >> i think our democracy is at stake, not a joke. think democracy is literally at stake regrets democracy still america's sacred cause is most urgent question of our time. that's what the 2024 election is all about. we face a moment of your choosing at a time when our very democracy is at stake. and that is not an exaggeration our democracy is at stake. i really think democracy is at stake if that's what i decide i had to run for real. because our democracy is also at stake at literally the democracy is at stake. it's not just of a campaign it's more of a mission. we cannot, we cannot, we cannot lose this campaign for the good of the country.

griff: but that is the message we all was watch and george stephanopoulos exclusive interview when he asked this question, this was the answer that he gave, watch. >> if you stay in an trump is elected and everything your warning about comes to pass how you feel in january? >> i will feel as long as i gave it my all and i did the goodison job i know i could do think of it this way. you've heard me say this before i think the united states in the andthe world is at an inflection point the things that happen in the next several years the next six or seven decades. griff: what is your take on that? we have heard the central message the threat to democracy and then that is the answer he gives. maybe he was a bit off on the central talking point? >> yes he's going to try to do e good as he can. but look old drumbeat about

democracy affiant rich coming from the democrats who suddenly went to bypass all the people who voted in the primaries in the caucuses and suddenly go to convention and have people like barack obama and others suddenly change the outcome of all those elections. to change it for their will. their record is replete with trying to change or jailing jailing theiropponent a politic. that is a pro democracy, give me a break. these people say that but also what you have to hear is they do not have policies they can run on. the economy, the border, crime, what is going on overseas, inflation, anybody within a listening of this broadcast quick tell me what is the biden plan to tackle inflation? democrats do not have one. that's not just a biden democrats don't have one. >> it is an interesting point and quickly before we run out of time i thought lindsey graham

had interesting you talked about policy changes but lindsey graham said this to the "washington post." he was talking but obviously trump will pick a vp would have harris replace biden? he says this the policy debate does not change, the capability of the candidate changes all the problems associate with the declining biden physically and mentally go away. she picks a governor from pennsylvania or michigan that changes the game. obviously invited us with the pennsylvania government today a wildly popular governor. what do you make of that? how much of a threat with a harris/set shapiro ticket be? which of the first point the policies the republicans can feel good about that donald trump represented peace, prosperity and actions in game plan to move the country forward elections are about the future and where you want to take the country. harris had two main tasks the border and artificial

intelligence and she did nothing with them. she is a yet to give a good compelling speech and motivate the american people to move forward. going to pick a vice president admission, pennsylvania wherever you want to pick they are going to pick and make their choice based on top of the ticket go ahead democrats pick kamala harris. going to lose by an even bigger margin. griff: is going to be an interesting week indeed an interesting and busy day today. jason thank you very much. alicia: today marks and nine months of israel's war on hamas and much of his mangled buildings and slabs of concrete. fox news traveled with the idf inside southern gaza near the border with egypt to get a look inside their operations which they say will not end until hamas is eliminated this is israel and hamas may resume cease-fire talks this week. trey yingst is alive in tel aviv with the story.

his way to harrisburg, pennsylvania for a rally there later on this afternoon but we are tracking the president all day long. as always we have been talking about all day, is a critical day for the president. the coming hours, the coming days of this next week could very well determine whether or not he remains top of the ticket for the democratic presidential race. griff: we are also tracking tropical storm beryl it bears down on the gulf coast to be expected to gain strength before making landfall early tomorrow. coastal areas are under hurricane and storm surge warnings. some spots could see a foot or more of a rain in the coming days. live fox weather team coverage brady and katie on the ground in texas residents are preparing for impact. first meteorologist adam klotz is live in the whether center with the latest, here she comes free. >> here she comes indeed for this is what you're looking at the storm 65-mile an hour winds

moving to the northwest at 10 miles an hour. it is been kind of stuck there right around 60 miles an hour, 65 miles an hour we are running over warm water we do expect throughout the rest of today into early tomorrow morning before it makes it landfall this will continue to strengthen ultimately still forecast to become a category one hurricane. deceit winds up to 85 miles an hour by the time you get into early monday morning. hurricane warning's are in place from south of corpus christi running all the way up to sgt a little further to the north and look at houston. tropical storm warnings are currently in place they could be seeing some tropical storm wins. here is our in-house forecast model prayer there's still room for this to move a little bit because you a sense of where the storm could go at 10:00 p.m. seeing some of the rain, seeing winds begin to batter the coast before ultimately really pushing on shore early tomorrow morning over night in houston by 6:00 a.m. think a bunch of activity. very heavy rain there. the rain is going treated part of this especially on the

eastern side of the storm. by the time we get into tomorrow afternoon were washed and storm of into portions of north texas. griff: meteorologist adam klotz in the whether center thank you. alicia: on the ground in houston streets are already waterlogged as people scramble to prepare for beryl to come ashore but likely as a category one hurricane. fox weather correspondent katie vern live in galveston. how are things looking right now? >> a lot of people are spending today getting ready for this pair were in that lowest lying neighborhood here in galveston. this typically sees a lot of flooding and people are preparing for that to happen. you see the water behind meat we are on the bayside right now they are protected by a seawall here all of this water is likely to flood the street in the next few hours as we approach high tide. you're not would see a ton of cars in the driveway so that's a big priority people are moving those to higher ground. where we are we are just north

of the expected landfall so flooding is going to be the main issue for people in this community there tropical storm and storm surge warnings impacting us, hurricane warning's are south of where we are impacting more than half a million people along the east texas coast. the people who live here or tell me they've been through storms like this before most that i have met do not plan on leaving. >> we don't really go anywhere. we don't really bail out this is a tropical storm or category one there's no reason to go. >> there are some mandatory evacuations south of us in communities they are but for people who are not leaving the areas were voluntary evacuation routes are underway like this community here, this is the last day for people to get ready for this. a lot of people are saying they're checking to make sure the generators are working because some are worried apparent outages that could happen in the coming days with the heat we are dealing with here in texas. alicia: we are th think that

everyone in south texas wrapped box with a correspondent katie vern live in galveston, texas thank you. griff: further south along the texas coast brita is alive in surfside beach what are you seeing? >> it definitely an increase in the wind also a huge group of folks coming out to look at the waves before they have to head up the barrier island we are positioned further south from galveston surfside beach which is about an hour south of houston were under hurricane warning and the storm surge morning. by the time it's this evening love feet of water over the rock jetty moving into this neighborhood. the homes in surfside beach is known for storm surge they struggle with storm surge you get coastal flooding during high tide it's interesting because beryl is over hundred miles from landfall we have seen a little bit of flooding this morning.

in fact minor wash over already on areas around surfside beach. there is a mandatory evacuation local officials letting residents out they choose to stay tonight they are on their own. they will beat marooned and surrounded by the storm surge. it might not get into their homes, they are going to be stuck there. unfortunately in this location we are concerned about the strong winds. in fact we could get very close to the eye wall meaning the strongest winds good brushing along the coastline later tonight addition to the tornado warnings are pretty much a guaranteed multiple threats we are looking out for us in surfside beach.

alicia: president biden wrapping up his remarks at a traditionally black church in philadelphia. now he is on his way to harrisburg. before we get any further on his stop there in pennsylvania, we do have an update to his story actually had been breaking surrounding the president. over the past couple of days we learned there are two radio host

who interviewed the president, who later said they were given questions by the white house to ask the president and those interviews. something they did they acquiesce to those requests and did so. a source familiar with the biden booking operation now telling fox quote while interview posts have always been free to ask whatever questions they please moving forward we will refrain from offering suggested questions. now, back to philadelphia it is the first time in the key battleground state of pennsylvania that the president has visited this place since his disastrous debate performance five congressional democrats so far have publicly called for him to drop out of the race. for more on biden's visit let's bring in republican pennsylvania state senator thank you so much senator for being with us. your district is a far away from where the president is right now and far from harrisburg as well

but you're in the southwestern part of the state. let's talk about the folks who live in the place you represent. what are they concerned about right now is all of this is going on? >> absolutely, thank you for having me. yes southwestern pennsylvania is a very, very different than the southeast. my district is literally the arms of west virginia. we have a different lifestyle different mindset these arrays in the coal mines and gas and oil fields. it is the heart and soul of energy for pennsylvania. we have a very different lifestyle and way of thinking. alicia: in the state of pennsylvania in 2020 president biden beat trump there by about 80000 votes. things have obviously tightened tremendously in the critical must win state for both candidates. now, while all of this is going

on you've seen a lot of top elected officials in the state of pennsylvania coming to the defense of president biden since the debate performance apart for example senator john fetterman on x's" democrats seem to get a spine or grow a set, one or the other biden is our guy. how does that hit you when you sail this going on? >> a couple of different ways one i work with john fetterman for several years as he was the president of the senate and i've been a center for going on 10 years now. when john fetterman was running for office he was not the president of the nights he was not on a world stage. i don't really care what happens on a debate stage as much is the world stage right now we have a president who is stumbling, and forgetful, and the excuses that have been made for his performance he was tired, he had a cold, he was traveling. those are excuses you might make

for a toddler having a tantrum but not the leader of the free world. secondly the democrat party is in complete disarray right now. they knew president biden was in this type of cognitive condition for a very long time tried desperately to hide it there was no hiding in that debate with the 60 days of preparation we saw clearly the leader of the free world, the president of the united states was incapable of even having a 90 minute debate and looking like a leader this is embarrassing and frankly dangerous. >> setting to western pennsylvania beutler county is not the district you represent but neighboring. can you talk about hoping to hear pretty much a pennsylvania as a whole over all. we are not the party of chaos. even the democrat party many, many of my friends are on the other side of the aisle.

and on the other side of the building where i work at the capitol in harrisburg. many of them voice a lot of concerns and they are not extremists. to see, just the fact the biden campaign is having a rally in philadelphia and donald trump is coming to southwestern pennsylvania it really shows you the difference in the ideology if you will on the way the pennsylvanians i know and especially in my district the weight we liberalize. we in southwestern pennsylvania we power the country. we feed the country with agriculture as our number one industry. and we make things that is what we do in pennsylvania. and frankly pennsylvanians do not have time for the far left progressive poll the democrat party's trying to inflict on pennsylvania. pennsylvania is a critical swing state of president biden and former president donald trump

coming to pennsylvania within a week of each other we know pennsylvania is a critical week cannot have this chaos filtered down through the legislature. it's a lot of pressure it is pulling most of pennsylvanians stand. >> we appreciate your perspective today pennsylvania state senator thank you so much. >> thank you very much. take care. alicia: stay with fox news for more coverage of the 2024 race. south carolina congresswoman nancy mason massachusetts congressman will speak with our own mike emanuel that's 1:00 p.m. eastern right after this edition of fox news live. steve where they'll be a good interview paid me while the biden administration is helping panama by paying for their flights as a new report claims

backlogs are complicated. put into perspective for us if you will have significant this backlog on the silent claims is and it makes it more difficult to get the crisis under control. >> thanks it good to be with you it is not surprising the biden administration every policy they have implemented as simply put overwhelmed our border and immigration system. they have disregarded the loss on the books since day one. that includes the spirit of the law when it comes to programs like asylum and parole. so now you have so many of these illegal migrants coming to the border. they've been instructed by the cartels with the magic words are to claim asylum. and they are just throwing them out there. the biden administration is not venting any of these claims of asylum. which is a why it was so important to have a program like remain in mexico. it provided an actual stop

before allowing people into the country to verify the claims that are being made by bill illegal migrants. the biden administration has none of this. as a result the system is overwhelmed. griff: do not take it from charles marino or griffith jenkins or anyone else the dhs inspector general issued a report last month literally saying and venting, as you mentioned vetting specifically is putting the country at greater risk for they also write on the backlog of asylum claims in the end of fiscal year 2023 u.s. cis had more than a million asylum claims determing of those had more than 786,000 affirmative asylum claims. pending determination for a period longer than 180 days from the date of filing the continued rise in asylum claims without a corresponding increase in resources will continue to prevent permitting statutory timelines that result in the
