fireworks shows. final preparations are underway across the country before americans line up to see the displays. >> julie: will the weather forecast cooperate? heavy rain across the central u.s. putting the region at risk for severe thunderstorms and putting a potential damper on festivities. team coverage starts now. fox weather will nunley is live in nashville with a sneak peak at one of the largest fireworks displays in the country. christina coleman is live at the beach in santa monica, california. hello. >> yeah, we're here at the beach. thousands will gather here today to celebrate our country's birthday. so many people getting together for the holiday weekend. take a look at this. a glimpse of cool military activities. in hawaii the crowd is rallied with a free fall parachute demonstration. camera footage captured from the helmet shows them in the sky after they jumped from a

blackhawk helicopter. how cool is that? thousands grabbed a picnic blanket to enjoy fireworks on the hudson river and listen to great music performed by the west point band in new york. take a look at this in d.c. the douglas memorial bridge was lit up in red, white and blue for the fourth and looks more beautiful in person. so many cool ways to honor our country. also fox news digital caught up with folks to ask why the fourth is so special to them. take a listen. >> it means to me celebration basically fireworks, cook-out, good time with people around you, family, friends, everything like that. >> to me it means freedom. >> we should, you know, remember the meaning of liberty, what it means to be an american. >> of course, what is the fourth without the parades? this is in west allis, wisconsin. yesterday families lined the

streets decked out in red, white and blue to celebrate america's birthday. and back out here live at the beach in santa monica, of course you expect lots of crowds and there are some hot, dry conditions blanketing lots of the west. that's why people are taking to the waterpark, hanging out at pools and the wonderful beach. back to you. >> julie: thank you, christina. happy fourth. rich. >> rich: julie, nashville will host one of the nation's fourth of july fireworks display. they expect to stay dry tonight after battered by severe thunderstorms over the weekend. will nunley joins us live from nashville's waterfront. will. >> this is one of the nashville's signature events. fireworks will be sin krons kronschnabel -- two things worth noting in the background. you touched on one of them

there. the power outages. we had severe storms roll through here this weekend. thousands without power here and in nashville and memphis as well. memphis is talking about five days for thousands of people there. also police presence here today. nashville knows how to throw celebrations like this but security top of mind. on every street corner you see unformed officers, patrol cars, multiple blocks of downtown are shut down for this event. security top of mind both visible and non-visible here in downtown nashville. we expect to top out at 87 degrees. we have rain chances in the forecast. hopefully hold off until midnight for one of nashville's biggest parties. like miley cyrus would say it's a party of the usa. >> rich: thanks very much. julie, i can't think of too many places where i would rather be for a fourth of july party than

nashville. >> julie: that's the mega center of partying these days. it has gotten so hot. literally hot. a hot day but fun nonetheless. >> rich: make sure to hydrate. >> julie: not just beer. try water. >> rich: beer is not high drating. i've read. scientists say. president biden is returning to the white house today of an independence day for a celebration of military families. the controversy surrounding his son, hunter, threatened to rain on his parade. the d.o.j. faces more republican scorn of its handling of the first son's criminal case. jacque heinrich is live on the north lawn of the white house. jacque. >> the president will return from camp david later on today where he spent the weekend with his son, hunter, after "the new york times" did a deep dive into the political toxicity

surrounding his legal issues. nothing yet has moved the president to keep his son at an arm's length even as multiple congressional investigations continue, the federal probe for which he accepted a plea on tax and gun charges is ongoing. years long court battle over child support payments has just wrapped up. biden has faced criticism for bringing hunter to camp david and a dinner with the indian prime minister. >> a dad who doesn't want to see his son relapse and holding him tight. >> biden has made clear to his aides that he does not want any advice on how to handle his son. according to nbc the president's message was hands off my family. it's less clear if the president will ever acknowledge his 4-year-old granddaughter living in arkansas fathered by hunter. "the new

"the new york times" aides are told the bidens have six grandchildren, not seven. last week there was plans for hunter to turn over paintings selected by his daughter. in addition to a monthly support payment, london roberts dropped a request to have her daughter's last name changed from roberts to biden. >> rich: jacque, thank you. >> julie: let's bring in former utah congressman jason chaffetz and fox news contributor. i want to address the whole grandfather thing. the fact that the president of the united states has a grandchild and his aides are being told not to knowledge that he has a seventh grandchild and only to count all six is really horrible. this little 4-year-old adorable little girl has a grandfather that wants nothing to do with her and a bit of a public figure. >> it is disgusting. there was a court ordered

paternity test and it was proven that hunter biden is the father, which makes joe biden the grandfather. the idea that government bureaucrats would say we'll lie to the american people and tell them that joe biden only has six grandkids when he actually has seven and he won't even meet with this young little girl and wants nothing to do with her, that says a lot about the biden family. it speaks for itself. >> julie: one thing for hunter because we don't expect much more but from the president you do expect much more or maybe we shouldn't expect much more. moving on, republican senator ron johnson told the daily mail the link between the prosecutor and hunter's business associate calls into question the integrity of their entire investigation. after hunter received a slap on the wrist do you think it adds to the fear that the president's son was handled with kid gloves by the d.o.j.? >> yes, senator johnson is one

of the best and understands this case inside and out and reported in the daily mail you have david weiss, the u.s. attorney looking at this. he has four key people that are his assistance. one of those people, derrick hines, happens to have worked for louie free. he got a referral by hunter biden to get business out of romania and as a thank you louie free wired $1 hundred thousand to joe biden's grandchildren as a thank you for doing who knows what. and of the 110,000 people at the department of justice, he just happened to pick part of the prosecutorial team, somebody who worked and got a benefit via hunter biden? it's also part of the prosecuting team on hunter biden. the statute is clear, you cannot do that. you are highly conflicted.

what senator johnson is saying it throws the whole case into question and he is absolutely 110% right. >> julie: how might revelations like this and others in the fall of the charges impact the investigations in congress do you think? >> oh, a lot. i think before it's all over you will hear a lot about louie free, the idea that 100,000 ends up in joe biden's grandkids' account and the email traffic between him and hunter. this is just but one. that's not talking about china. how about jeff cooper? jeff cooper is hunter biden's business partner. when joe biden was the vice president of the united states, he joined him on air force ii to go to mexico. joe biden says i never had a discussion with my son about his business dealings. why were they flying on u.s. taxpayers dollars jeff cooper hunter biden's business partner to mexico to do business? we could go on for hours.

they are not doing their job at the department of justice and republicans in congress are going to get after it and yank all these people and expose it whether they want to or not. >> julie: you have weiss who denies actually lashing out at a whistleblower when the facts are the facts. the guy was demoted and it was retaliation. you have merrick garland protecting the whole situation. the president of the united states has said he never once had a conversation with garland regarding any of the cases when the top case involves his son. none of it adds up. >> no, especially when you have a top tier i.r.s. whistleblower, mr. shapley, who has said david weiss did not have full authority to charge hunter biden. they totally have this run around could he charge him in california, could he charge him in the district of columbia or was he -- was he confined to just delaware? that's a big question.

the whistleblower has far more credibility on this issue. >> julie: had he charged him in washington he would have been charged with a felony not with a slap on the wrist which brings us back to our original point. jason chaffetz. great to see you, love you, buddy. >> thank you. >> julie: rich. >> rich: israel launching its largest military operation in the west bank in two decades. a live report from jerusalem as the conflict enters its second day. >> julie: working remotely is growing in some unexpected jobs. we'll tell you where people are now clicking in. on is complete balanced nutrition. together we provide nutrients to support immune, muscle, bone, and heart health. everyone: woo hoo! ensure with 25 vitamins and minerals. enter the $10,000 nourishing moments giveaway. what do we always say, son? liberty mutual customizes your car insurance... so you only pay for what you need. that's my boy.

political office in russia. the so-called merchant of death victor boot is running for a seat in the legislative assembly. he is the convicted arms smuggler the u.s. exchanged for wnba star britteny griner last december. >> julie: israeli troops launching major operations in the west bank trying to root out terrorists and weapons. it comes as palestinians retaliate with an attack on civilians in one of israel's largest cities. trey yengst joins us live from jerusalem with the latest. >> good morning. israeli forces are conducting their second day of operations in the west bank city of janine. ten palestinians militants killed and 100 people wounded, some civilians. we know the israeli military said they destroyed two

operation rooms and uncovered underground storage for explosive devices. the operation will continue indefinitely since israeli troops still have ten targets inside the refugee camp that need to be searched. they have used air and drones and palestinians use i.e.ds. security officials are warning a possible escalation before the operation is complete. in total the israelis have 1,000 troops, the largest israeli operation in the west bank since 2002. hamas and islamic jihad in gaza have threatened retaliation for the raid. both organizations have fighters inside among the 300 militants hiding inside the camp. some response may have started. this afternoon a palestinians from the west bank conducted a ramming attack in tel aviv injuring nine people. the assailiant drove into a bus

stop before jumping out of his car and stabbing people. the attacker was killed by a bystander. new information right now indicating the israelis have renewed air strikes in the west bank city. it is expected to be a tense week here in the holy land. >> rich: thank you. saudi arabia and russia are announcing more oil production cuts next month. they will slash 1 1/2% of global supplies from the market. how will this impact prices at the pump? let's bring in steve moore, former economic advisor to president trump and co-founder of the committee to unleash prosperity. thanks for joining us. good to see you. >> happy fourth of july. >> rich: i'm one of the 39% who is proud to be on american. >> rich: thank you for watching last hour as well. you look at what the saudis and russians are doing here. how much could this impact gas prices here and the broader economy here? >> i'm frustrated by the whole

story. i worked for donald trump. one of the things we were able to achieve by the end of his presidency was america was completely energy independent. we weren't dependent on saudis and opec. the idea that opec could raise the price of gasoline in the united states wasn't possible because we were producing so much oil and gas here in texas, oklahoma, north dakota and alaska. because of these crazies policies of biden of shutting down pipelines and american energy we're dependent on opec. so this could cause gas prices to rise again. when trump left office, rich, let's not forget the gas price was $2.50 a gallon. it went up to $5 to $6 a gallon and come down to 3.50 and higher than when trump left office. if the saudis and opec cut back production it could go up at the pump. >> rich: there was a record high a year ago.

we're at 3:50 now. four producers are looking to maximize profit. at what point do they try to get gasoline prices -- what point do they want to get to to maximize profit here? you get to $ten a gallon in the united states, there will be a pullback on driving -- and they don't want to do that. is there a sweet spot? >> they'll put the price wherever they think they can earn the most money. that's what they do. so this is an argument for why we should be turning the spigots on and drill by drill here because that would mean we could lower the price at the pump. will we see increases in gas prices? hard to say. there is a lot of oil out there. they will do everything they can. the countries we're talking about iran, venezuela, russia, saudi arabia. these are countries that are not

always friendly to the united states. some cases enemies. i would say the solution to this is get back to producing as much oil and gas and build the pipelines and infrastructure we need so we are independent again. >> rich: what about the administration argument they say it's part of an international market and still deal with the bad guys in that parlance. let's get off the stuff and move to the next energy source. what about that? >> well, we have more oil and gas and coal than any other country in the world. we don't want to get off of using those fuels that we have the most of. could solar -- let's take solar and wind power for example. they produce 6 or 7% of our power. we aren't going to be able to go fully into these things. we'll be using oil and gas and coal and nuclear power for the next 50 years. let's get it from texas, not from saudi arabia and venezuela. come on. >> rich: if we were to move on from working from home.

a lot of americans are taking advantage of that. how has that changed the work landscape in this country? >> we were talking during the break. i have been probably about halftime now working remotely at home. i used to work 100% in the office. covid really changed the way all of us work. and so i like it. my wife would rather have me go to the office but yeah, i think this is here to stay. think about the implications of commercial real estate. you've got these office buildings all over america that are empty now and they can't sell them and causing economic distress. i do think we permanently changed the way we worked and i think you will see more people working remotely right on the computer that you have right in front of you and if you've got the internet and you have a computer in front of you, pretty much you can work anywhere you want. there is a benefit, though, to people going into the office and the synergy of working with colleagues and so on. i think you will see a combination of both.

>> rich: we had a 30-year run from the early mid 90s to the present of american cities getting revitalized. downtown course getting revitalized. >> that's reverse evidence not just because of telecom uteing, high taxes and high crime and the wokeism in cities is causing people to not put business there but people are moving out. some of the great american cities, san francisco, los angeles, portland, my home city of chicago, just being ruined by lawlessness, terrible schools, high taxes, and progressive governance. am i bullish on the future? no, chicago elected a marxist. i would like to see a revitalization of american cities but it will require much better leadership.

do they see him as a useful ally or potential challenger? >> i think the campaign sees him as an ally, rich. i think he tried to dispel any concerns that they had about him potentially posing a challenge to president biden when he visited washington i believe last year. met with the then chief of staff and worked hard to tamp down concerns. i think he is trying to help president biden but raise his profile. this is somebody who will no doubt be eyeing a run for the presidency the next cycle. at that point the democratic field will be open. in 2028 he wouldn't be running again then. so i think newsom wants biden to win and is wanting to be helpful. but is also happy to be out there raising his own profile. >> rich: he doesn't want to be seen as somebody damaging the president's re-election chances

if he will be the nominee, which it appears that he is going to. he is an incumbent. when you look at where the president is now, though, do you think that if we weren't talking about the oldest president in american history running for a second term that there would be this type of speculation out there that gavin newsom will declare and try to take the mantel away from him? >> you are spot on to say that age is kind of hovering over this whole issue. it is hovering over president biden's campaign and why there are still questions. i this i the fact that president biden has announced his re'election and got a campaign started not fully -- doesn't have an office yet somewhere else. they are working out of the dnc. it is in place. he is focused on fundraising and the general election. they don't see it as a major risk any mainstream candidate

will challenge him and that includes governor newsom. >> rich: do you think the point where the current president is now in his re-election campaign is unusual for an incumbent who has a significant lead in his party? is the president behind in any way or acting as president trump running for re-election or president obama running for re-election? >> every campaign cycle is unique. i try to think of when president obama was running and also an incumbent he would have focused and did focus on fundraising in the early months before he started doing rallies in -- for the general. i don't think that part is unusual. i think maybe what's different with president biden is he and his advisors have determined the best strategy right now is to show him governing, show that he can and is doing the job and doing it well, at least well according to the people who support him and try to make that argument to independence who face the decision between a

republican candidate and him in 2024. the other piece of that strategy is see that there is a lot more chaos on the republican side and just let that play out. i think that's part of why you are not seeing him doing a lot of active campaigning yet, either. >> rich: the dnc is trying to mix up its primary calendar. is that a potential source for i don't want to say chaos, but disagreement on the democratic side and how does that resolve itself? >> i think it's a source for potential drama for sure. although considerably less chaos and drama because there is an incumbent running. how it resolves itself remains to be seen. president biden and dnc have laid out their plan and what the calendar is that they want. but not all the states are fully on board. so i think we'll keep seeing little aspects to this story. but i think it is less of a big deal because president biden is the incumbent and not going to have a major primary anyway.

what about treatment? if you develop preeclampsia how do you treat it? that's the most important. if you develop seizures or coma that can occur if it's untreated that's potentially life threatening. preeclampsia with treat with high blood pressure. we'll deliver the infant early if we can't get you under control. the tool may help us but not taking the place of a doctor's wisdom. >> julie: this condition it affects black women in the united states more. you would think authorities would get on board with that. there is no effective treatment for preeclampsia as you mentioned. it has been on the rise in recent years in the united states. up 25% over the past 20 years.

why the rise do you think? >> i think it's because of the fact that women are having babies older and women are having babies with more pre-existing conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure and other problems. i mentioned the world maternal fetal medicine. that's a specialist for women in higher risk. we have to figure out a way to get this type of service available around the country because we're getting women having babies older and older. that's probably the main issue. >> julie: more and more women are putting careers first and getting pregnant later in life. the medicine and technology have to catch up with modern times. dr. siegel, thank you so much for talking to us. happy fourth, miss you. >> you manage to do both, career and great children.

>> julie: i sure did. my first child wasn't born until i was 36, 37. what do they call us when you are older and pregnant? >> successful. >> julie: there was another word for it. it wasn't promising. that's the trend these days. thank you very much for talking to us. >> rich: gunfire is erupting out of philadelphia claiming the lives of five people and injuring two children. it is the latest violence plaguing cities this july 4th weekend. a live report on that next.
