when we have a clash of the air mass and the fact we are saying this amount of severe weather this late in the season is remarkable but we do have the threat today south of dallas towards louisiana. looks like we have a tornado warned the storm for the florida panhandle this will be the action we will see throughout the day and through the weekend so a multi-day event almost a week long we have a severe thunderstorm watch in effect from texas through louisiana and here is the widespread area were we could see a potential for strong storms tornadoes in straight-line winds of damage hail and heavy rainfall we have flash flooding emergencies happening across the florida panhandle. multi-day severe threat ongoing friday saturday and sunday. let's talk about the wildfires

because it looks like we will see more smoke for areas across the upper west the great lakes this weekend we will be alert to that air quality for parts of the upper midwest is improving yesterday we were seeing unhealthy and the worst air quality cities in arizona. that's not smoke related i think it's probably just storm related but ohio south dakota iowa and heat alerts for texas. they typically see very warm temperatures this time of years but this will be off the charts warm feeling like 110 not only today but through the weekends. all lots going on and the tropics starting to get active so we will be watching this area of low pressure we can to eight hour of weather today. >> 121 degrees in corpus christi. i don't think i have ever felt anything like that.

dangerous america one we cannot allow our children to grow up in. it's time for a leader who believes in america's greatest power and that is why yesterday i filed paperwork to run for president of the united states of america. >> mayor suarez is the only hispanic candidates in the race and yesterday former president barack obama share some thoughts about the black gop candidates for the white house. >> i'm not being cynical individually if a republican who may be sincere in saying i want us to live together doesn't have a plan for how do we address crippling generational poverty that is a consequence of hundreds of years of racism in the society and we need to do something about that. >> senator tim scott responded to the former president writing a quote let us not forget we

are a land of opportunity not oppression democrats deny progress to project power the left wants you to believe face in america's a fraud and progress in our nation is a myth. the truth disproves the lies of the radical left. we live in a country where black and brown girls can be presidents of the united states we have had one and the good news is, we will have another. authority yesterday governor ron desantis urged the democratic governor gavin newsom to enter the race for president. >> stop pussyfooting around.

for him not to be on the ballot at all in iowa and new hampshire in that the vote come if they vote before south carolina biden's preferred choice to have the first primary. >> a republican voter in iowa joins us. good morning to you. this is a wild situation it's possible joe biden might not be on the ballot in your home state because he is pushing for south carolina to be the first state and if that happens people are speculating rfk junior might win. how do you feel about this? >> thank you for having me on and honestly, i don't necessarily think that iowa is a country for biden in general. like islands across the country >> islands across iowa iowa extremely passionate about family values and someone who has change all the american

values doesn't deserve the vote. >> one of the reasons why they want to move south carolina. they say iowa and new hampshire are full of white people and there's not enough diversity for them to go first is kind of reverse racism and it's saying that certain votes are more important than others now because maybe they were oppressed before. what you think about that? >> honestly i think it's sad we have to always take it back to race. i do understand why we have to say that their systematic racial oppression or they are shoving the race oppression and marginalization in our schools and to me, hydrophilic we have that project in our schools. i think there is a certain

agenda they're trying to push a lot of it is coming down from the biden administration. just last week he change the flags to the on the white house.she represents not only violating the flag code but it shifted the way we view our country into me that's not the american family. it's inappropriate my opinion. :-) thank you so much for joining us. we appreciate it. >> thank you. >> and alabama police department is getting some recruiting help thanks to a new hype video produced by high school students. those take a look. >> it's more than being a warrior. take strong character, integrity. looking out for the interests of others. stream if the police chief and a student bind that video are here next gre >>ok

>>

>> utah police officers rescue a 12-year-old girl trapped in a car that rolled into a reservoir. this is incredible footage showing the moment they jump into the freezing water. >> >> something of the movie. witnesses say three people in the car. a young boy and woman had escaped with the girl was trapped inside. they couldn't pry the doors open one of the officers shot through the window and pulled her to safety. first responders gave her cpr and thank god she is in stable condition.

>> a group of alabama high school students decided to help the local police recruit new officers with this awesome video. >> law enforcement is more than being a warrior. it takes strong character. integrity. looking out for the interests of other people above yourself. something has to be done even if you don't want to do it, you're still going to do it and you will do a good job. >> this is one of the fastest growing city in the country and alabama for a while. >> it's a small town feel that there's plenty of- >> timothy williams graduated and helped produce and edit the video joining us alongside the chief of the police department. timothy, this video is great you will see it has drone shots, underwater shots. tell us what went into making this video. >> the first step was with any big project like this you have

to drop a plan. you can't go out and wing it or it would be wasted time. that's the biggest part getting a list of the looks we wanted to give. the different settings and different offices in different scenarios. so when you drop a plan and it makes the workflow a lot easier. you can just bounce off everything. >> the police department reached out to timothy and his classmates to make this video so what was your reaction when you saw the final project? >> i expected a good video but we were blown away. the quality of what they did with the filming and editing was excellent. i think the most important was the time we spent with these kids. we were able to learn more about each other. it's a positive interaction like this >> i expect that's a good point. timothy which is you learn about the police after spending

so much time with them? you have a better appreciation for their job? >> for sure. there's so much more behind the uniform and badge that everyone sees on a daily basis. these are real family guys. i feel like as a youth it's easy to get spooked up by these guys but that's not the case at all. >> tell us about the idea you had to ask within his classmates to create this video. why did she do that? >> it wasn't my idea it was one of the sergeants who has a police explorer program. we have young people who come to our department once a week to work with an officer to learn about law enforcement. there is a shortage nationwide of people applying to get into law enforcement and we need to reach out to argue but it was their idea

>> you think this video will help recruiting? >> i really hope it does. we have to recruit the best and federal law enforcement and everyone else and there's a negative connotation to law enforcement. we have to do all we can do >> was this video a graded project? if it was i'm sure you got an a. >> own no ma'am. >> did you just do this for the experience and to learn? >> for sure. it was a great learning experience. i haven't done anything like this before in the past. >> he adjusted out of the kindness of your heart for your community. you just graduated so what is next for you? >> i am freelancing right now just putting my name out there. i have a lot of time to get contacts and networking in

different areas. >> we know this house and you have a bright future ahead. thank you for joining us this morning. great story. stream if the doj is launching an investigation into the pga tour and their blockbuster partnership. >> the details are here next >> wi>> >>

>> the justice department is investigating the pga tour's merger over potential antitrust concerns. >> our sister network is here with more. >> according to the "wall street journal" the justice department plans to open an antitrust investigation into the pga plans to join a partnership with the saudi backed liv golf. it stunned the golf world was made in relative secret with a handful of people involved in the negotiations. the pga saying we are confident when all stakeholders learn about how the pga tour will lead this new venture they will understand how it affects our players and sport wall impacting the other ? senator

wyden of oregon launching a investigation into the mergers including the tax exemption that the saudi ash has that could be challenged and here's what he says this raises significant questions about whether organizations that tie themselves to an authoritarian regime that is continually undermining the rule of law should continue to enjoy tax exempt status it's critical that lawmakers understands what risks they impose to real estate. neighboring military facilities sensitive manufacturing centers a response from the pga guys by june 23. >> somebody in the pga was saying the details of this merger will be known for over a year and it might still fall apart so >> not so much the details it's more about actually getting it done. and i want to put a point on

the fact that a lot of this was done in secret and that's why a lot of the players are coming out and saying wait a minute hold on. what are the implications and this has some serious criticisms of the steel so it could be at least a year at this point for this to be approved but potentially longer are we going to put this out there, or never. >> a lot of questions. and more importantly tell us about this cyber hack that affected multiple government agencies. >> it's been going on for a couple of weeks the department of homeland security confirming multiple us federal agencies have been hit by global cyber attack carried out by russian linked extortion group that has claimed responsibility the department of energy and other agencies were compromised. a russian cyber extortion hack of a file transfer program

popular. we are seeing estimates of several hundred victims across the country according to a senior official. so far not the us military or the intelligence community were breached its affected several hundred companies and organizations in the united states owes bigger than the us government but unfortunately claiming responsibility. they want money. >> this is a big one. thank you. >> thanks. >> former marine daniel petty will be arranged in new york for the chokehold death of a homeless man jordan neely after being formally indicted and we are confident when a jury was tasked with weighing the evidence they will find the actions on that train were fully justified. joining us now are former

manhattan assistant district attorney and a defense attorney and a chairwoman of victim rights counsel. thank you for joining us on this topic. i want to get into this so we will talk about daniel penny had to say about himself and his own actions and are looking at what many of you had to say about this but i will go to you first. we look at him during this interview say it was only a few minutes it was between stops and all the information coming out was it was 15 minutes how crucial is that piece of evidence? >> you always have situations where people report things, lose track of time or exaggerate so the timeline would be significant. obviously if somebody was choking a man for 15 minutes people would tend to believe

that's unreasonable. when that timeline goes down to maybe a minute or two or less, that is certainly something that becomes more favorable to mr. penny. >> now we are looking at being a defense attorney creating your defense was that a good idea for daniel penny to come out to the interview? >> absolutely not no criminal defense attorney in the world once the client to speak. i say there's a golden rule and that's not to get out in the court of public opinion. you say what information you have that the prosecutor is not entitled to get because the defendant has the right to remain silent every statement you make can now be used against you and i think he said some things that were not good for his defense so i don't think it's a good idea. never a good idea. always remain silent. >> this statement from the new york mayor adams, he said i appreciate the da conducting a thorough investigation into the

death of jordan neely. when the da first brought charges i have the utmost faith in the judicial process and now that the grand jury has indicted daniel penny a trial and justice can move forward. i ask you to think about that quote because you have seen the consequences of lawlessness first hand. you advocate for the da's and people who do their job appropriately. it's easy for the mayor to make that statement but what will change so daniel penny and jordan neely in the future are put in the situation? >> good morning. thank you for having me. it's so hypocritical. so disingenuous for the mayor al sharpton, williams, any of them to come out and make it, about this incident between mr. penny and mr. neely because the apparatus completely failed

both of those men on the train. mr. penny should not have been put in that situation and mr. neely should have been in the hospital. he should have never been on that train threatening to kill people terrorizing innocent law-abiding taxpaying new yorkers on a train and mr. penny is white and mr. neely is black.[indiscernible] from the mayor, from al sharpton because it was a if it was a black on black crime, the passengers on that train. and he said we are going to. [indiscernible] for them because mr. penny is white and mr. neely is black. they don't care nothing about the innocent people or the victims in new york city. they are hypocrites, all of them.

>> i would say there are other people involved in other people that mr. penny said he was protecting it's hard to understand how racism was a motivating factor but the politics are at play, anything is fair game. i want to thank all three of you for joining us and we will see how this plays out. >> thank you. >> it looks like president biden is getting sick of questions about the investigation into his family's bribery scheme. >>. [indiscernible] >> we will be answering our questions about this next phrase for the all-americans concert series continues with country music star justin moore. keep it here on fox news all morning long.

cooperate with the oversight committee. >> this might not be good for the biden family. >> hunter biden's former associate devon archer is in talks with the house oversight committee. they subpoenaed him this week to appear today for deposition but he will be allowed to negotiate a later appearance hunter's former business partner could potentially have more information about if biden was bribed by burisma executives.they will soon obtain bank records to prove these allegations to be true. >> we are going to exceed 10 million this week and i think between 20 and $30 million. this is going to be hard for joe biden to explain and it's not going to go away. eventually the mainstream media will turn on joe biden and start asking the real questions.

so it looks like biden might be feeling the pressure snapping at about a reporter who asked him about his nickname from foreign nationals. >> the white house has maintained president biden has never been involved in his son's foreign business deals and has never discussed them. >> let's bring in the fox news contributor, joe picking up on what congressman cho merges said this is going to be an issue and eventually the mainstream media will turn on joe biden and start asking the right questions. do you think that's true? >> kind of is my definitive answer a couple of members of the media will ask that question. we will see it from peter ducey and jackie heinrich created silence of the lambs as far as the mainstream media asking joe

biden about this the way they would donald trump if this involved his family and this is the get off my lawn presidency. we have seen this. joe biden tried to bully reporters with his answers around his sons. why would you ask such a dumb question? insulting them to their face. their questionable dealings overseas including places like china, ukraine, russia, greece when it comes to the biden family including hunter biden enriching the biden family to the tune of millions in the questions reporter should be asking, when they had the rare access to him, what services did your son provide chinese energy companies to enrich your family?why did your niece who is a guidance counselor at delaware received tens of thousands of dollars from a chinese energy company? what experience does your

brother james biden have that allow them to pocket tens of millions of dollars in patty afford multimillion the homes in delaware including one on the beach which is quite expensive for the salary you had as a senator and a vice president every time he is in public he should be asked these questions but we are not hearing it outside of the rare exception we saw yesterday. >> he wasn't asked a question. he gave quite an amazing response but let's take a look great >> are there tapes that you accepted bribes president biden? is that true? >> the zoom into his face is hilarious. >> it's rare to ask him a question when they do he has a blank look on his face like i don't know what you're talking about. >> that's his way of dismissing things. are you crazy? that's like asking if it's going to snow in washington d.c. in june and only for so long, will he be able to get away with this and if james comber brings the goods like he

is promising at some point abc, nbc, cbs, cnn the new york post, they're going to have to ask questions themselves and start digging into this the way journalist should be doing instead of covering the administration. >> tonight that drag a group, that dresses up as nuns is performing at the los angeles dodgers game and marco rubio created and added to air during the game to criticize the group but that address rejected and rubio told fox news this.he said the dodgers are honoring an anti-catholic hate group as community heroes but they are afraid of airing and as showing these sisters out of the community it tells you everything you need to know about the dodgers major league baseball and the media they are no longer demanding tolerance they promote intolerance and hatred of christianity. so this group they will be getting an honor and the

community hero award. what you think about the situation and the fact that the ad was rejected? >> this was unfair from the beginning the los angeles dodgers at the top of the attendance rankings by country mile. they don't need gimmicks and they don't need to invite transcripts that assault the customer base. half of the dodger fan base is made of the latino population and a big chunk of the population were catholic so why would you insult basically half of your fan base by hosting a group that mocks your fan base? this is ridiculous.the dodgers did not need this. they will get people to come to the ballgame they want the escapism of baseball. they don't need to hear and see this crap and i hate to start another friday at such a bad word but happy father's day to joey and your husband now that he is a father and let's have some fun on sunday. a beautiful day in the

northeast grade >> thank you for leaving us with a bright now. happy father's day. >> secretary of state helping to calm tensions between the us and china and he is setting expectations low. >> can americans trust the white house to stand up for america'sinterest ? we are talking to the georgia boy right there he is up next.yo

>> joey: john durham will testify before the house judiciary committee next week after leaving scathing report. failed to uphold the mission of strict fiddle to the law. when they launched the trump-russia investigation. >> doug collins the ranking member of the house judiciary committee and iraq veteran and he joints us now. doug, good morning to you. so, he is going to testify on wednesday.

do you think that lawmakers will learn anything new that hasn't already been reported? >> probably not. i mean, it will be a chance -- look, it's going to be a pretty explosive hearing. the republicans are going to go after durham pretty hard. democrats will skate around the issue and try to deflect and move otherways to claim nothing happened. my biggest problem with this and this goes back to the time i was in congress as well. how do you claim as was just said a scathing report about the fbi but, yet, wrongdoing was done but nobody held accountable for it. the part that frustrates americans on so many levels that the fbi seems to continually take care of its own. this will be one of the big things you will hear in this hearing. >> joe: for americans sitting at home who don't fully understand how congress works and how it works with the judicial branch when we talk about accountability from, my understanding, all the way down to possibly the hillary clinton actually paid for this original dossier a how do you follow

that? where does the accountability come from and what are the efforts of the house? how does that play into accountability happening? >> well, i think the biggest thing, joey, we could spend the next two hours discussing the things talking about with hillary clinton, james comey, you know, strzok, page, mccabe. it's all there. mccabe is one who was actually fired by the fbi for doing the things durham basically talked about lying and withholding information and cnn hires him. it's like, you know, this is just a problem. what the house can do is bring out other questions and see if durham will say well, why didn't you charge here? why was there not? again, some of that will be maybe new information. a lot of it will be regurgitated information we have already seen in the report. is he very good probably at sticking straight to the report. but what it will do is, again, highlight this issue. one of where the real accountability will come is if the house takes action through the budgetary process or something else to actually affect change at the fbi. i think that's what's got to

happen. remember right now from the house perspective republicans in the house against everybody else in the three-leg process and i think that's going to be very difficult. >> secretary of state antony blinken is heading to china to meet with top officials there this was a visit supposed to happen in february and was canceled because of the spy balloon. now you have the spy base in cuba. how should the secretary of state nafer gait this trip and is it possible for him to be successful in tamp down tensions between our two countries. >> i'm not sure at this point in time tamping down tensions is actually going to be the true goal here. actually confronting the fact you have one side being aggressive and one side seemingly not taking the challenge seriously and that's the american side. for me, blinken needs to say look, if you want to be this economic world power, if you want to flex your military muscle here, that's fine, by the way, we have the same thing, and then you come to an agreement look we will have to learn to live in this world and we're not going to be pushed around and

accept your comments like the balloon was not anything but a weather balloon. so i think, you could do that in a diplomatic. i'm glad they are talking. that's the best thing that could be happening is the two countries are talking but you just just be a one sided conversation like earlier in the administration when he was pushed off by the chinese in that first meeting. this has got to be a meeting in which whoever he talks to has to understand that we're committed to world view that is american focused. joe o. >> joey: we don't have a whole lot of time let. you are a member of congress. what can congress do to try hold china available. stealing intellectually property. >> this is where the issues with china, the china committee has got to work on intellectual property protections. there's things we we can do do streb our infrastructure. strengthen our every day way of life that would actually help. quit buying and quit putting recollect i think, chinese issues and assets in place where

they could do normal things of just surveillance and data gathering in the united states we seem to turn a blind eye to. >> carley: doug, it was great. thank you for being with us this morning. >> good to have you back. joey, take care. >> carley: two georgia boys. joey, great to have you as well. >> joey: thanks for having me. >> carley: "fox & friends" starts right now. >> it was an act of self-defense. tori williams has been arrested after another incident of self-defense. >> the day before a grand jury indicted daniel penny. >> a defendant is allowed to use force equal to the force presented. >> why do you ask such dumb question. >> president biden not responding to bribery questions hunter to the big guy. >> paid a bribe of $5 million. >> would you consider running for the democratic nomination. >> no. >> desantis kept his eyes focused on california governor gavin newsom encouraging him to challenge president biden. >> are you going to throw your hat r
