i'm john simpson. thank you forjoining me. hello., day, with temperatures peaking at around 32 celsius. that heat and humidity giving rise to some dramatic skies, as some thunderstorms kicked off through the afternoon and into the evening. if we take a look back at the radar picture, we can see that we had some storms in northern scotland, some across northern england, and then this clump of thunderstorms, this quite big, organised area of storms, that drifted westwards, across the midlands, towards wales. so, as we head through monday, really, it's more of the same, more spells of sunshine, but still the chance for some thunderstorms, with that heat and humidity. temperatures to start the day between ten and 17 degrees, so a very warm start to the day, quite a muggy start. for most, a dry start, but a little bit of rain to clear away from parts of wales, maybe some extra cloud in the far south west and a few showers even from the word go, and into the afternoon, as the sun heats the land, well, those big shower clouds will bubble up

unacceptable and fussy. were enemies, is unacceptable and fuss . ., ., ., . “ , our world affairs editor john simpsonfact vladimir putin used, it is a mutiny. but you have to remember it is a mutiny by probably the most effective section of the entire russian military operation. the wagner group, russian military operation. the wagnergroup, i russian military operation. the wagner group, i mean, although as we know it is often made up of people like former prisoners and so on, but they have been welded together by prigozhin into this unit which has a very, very high sense of itself and a very, great spirit, they feel they are somebody, whereas the russian forces are often demoralised, mostly do not want to be the. although they have these very good defences at the moment, they are nervous, they are scared of what the ukrainian military cannot do to them, and so they do not have that kind of spirit that the prigozhin people do. —— what the ukrainian military can do to them. there's only 25,000 of the wagner group but they may well be able to get much further than they have got already. it was really u

i'm john simpson. thank you forjoining me. hello.turday's weather story — some heat and some thunderstorms. it was by quite some margin, the hottest day of the year so far — 32 degrees celsius in parts of surrey, lots of other places not too far behind. but for some, that heat through the afternoon into the evening spawned some thunderstorms. a dramatic view for this weather watcher in shropshire. this is how it looked on the radar picture through saturday evening across parts of the midlands, east wales, north west england and also up into western scotland. some quite intense thunderstorms, a lot of rain falling in some locations. and for sunday, well, it's more of the same — more hot sunshine but more scattered thunderstorms. in fact, a few showers and storms from the word go across parts of scotland, one or two, perhaps, through the channel islands, central southern england. and while there will be some spells of warm or even hot sunshine through the day, all that will do is intensify those showers. quite hit and miss — some place

i'm john simpson. thank you forjoining me. hello.t to your sunday, but like yesterday we will see some heavy and thundery showers developing across many parts of the uk. this was the scene earlier this morning, lovely blue skies here, plenty of sunshine and the heat really building across england and wales at the moment. showers across scotland, drifting north, but at lunchtime and this afternoon, the show was really stop to get going across parts of wales, the midlands, and through southern parts of england some torrential downpours, lightning and thunder. maximum temperature is 23—30 c once again in the south—east of england. heading into this evening, the showers will be torrential. look at the bright colours there, the greens. heavy downpours, hail, gusty winds, and the risk of localised flooding with those showers. they will drift west before further heavy showers move into parts of the west country, south wales, northern areas of devon and cornwall overnight tonight. and it could well be a fairly uncomfortable night for sleepin

john? >> fridge. and you brought up this thing about ketchup being pronounced catsup. my entire life, i've never heard somebody say catsup. maria: do you watch the simpsonsd. john's anti-ketchup on hot dogs, did you know that? [inaudible conversations] >> you must not like baseball with, because i feel like there's nothing better than going to a baseball game, have a hot dog with ketchup. look at that picture -- maria: oh, no, no. to be clear, the debate was with answered, catch chip -- ketchup belongs in the fridge. now to the hot dog debate, no, no, no, mustard goes on a hot dog. >> why can't we have it all? i love it. the more vinegar, the better. maria: we hope everybody's going to have a great fourth of july weekend, make it safe and happy, and we send you do our wishes for a happy independence day. it's been a great show today, so happy you joined the show. >> thanks, maria. really fun. maria: see you later in the day on air, brian. happy independence day, everybody. we'll see you here tomorrow, don't miss us.

john's, newfoundland, looking for the titan. should it surface, here is robert simpsonair efforts. >> specialized to see things from the air. so given everything they have toit and if it's on the surface we are fairly certain we would be able to find it. >> those on board include scientists and adventurers, including stockton rush, the ceo of the firm that created it, and pretty big price tag, 250,000 per person for the eight-day expedition, customers referred to as mission specialists on board. hamish harding, u.k. billionaire, aviator, award winning pilot, the company tweeting pictures showing harding out at sea, and several of the photos writing the sub had had a successful launch and hammish was currently diving. french mariner, paul henry nargolet, he was named on a facebook post a day before the mission by hamish harding, and overnight, another company tweeted their company's vice chairman, shahzada dawood, along with his son sulaiman, the company noting contact was lost with their craft. i also had a conversation with the petty officer, chief petty officer just b

john durham choked. he spent five years investigating the investigators but didn't do any investigating people to declined to be interviewed. dolan, dan chink co, mccabe, strzok, page, simpsonng others. seems inexplicable to me you didn't compel their testimony. can you explain that at all. >> sure. first let me make it clear it's disappointing to my colleagues that these people wouldn't agree to be interviewed. you can't just subpoena people to make them talk. can you subpoena people when you believe they have relevant information is durham supposed to be some kind of con man. is he going to sit there with a straight face and tell us he didn't subpoena strzok, simpson. hillary's pee tape liar because he didn't think they had relevant information? these are the only guys who had relevant information. durham only interviewed the guys who didn't have relevant information. the whole thing was a set up. the durham investigation was just another cover-up. >> you are part of the cover-up mr. durham. >> if that's your thought. i can tell you it's offensive. >> tried two cases, lost both of them. the fact you didn't charge andrew mccabe. you didn't convict the lyin' democrats or ly

john? >> that was a great discussion. >>> this morning we have a firsthand account of what it is like to take part in this kind of underwater adventure. one year ago simpson'ster mike reese was on the same submersible that is missing in the atlantic. he told a cnn affiliate about the dangers he proo prepared for ahead of the trip and explained the navigational issues his team experienced during the dive. >> it was just 11 months ago in this very same sub and i see over and over on every dive we took they lost communication. this is just one of the problems with this thing. you know, i'm sure the world is very worried and that kind of thing, but something to know having gone through it is you know going in how very dangerous this is. it's not any bad reflection on -- on stockton rush, it's his company and he designed it, but it's just that we are all part of this ongoing experiment. before you even get on you sign this long, long waiver that mentions possible death three times on the first page. so you know what you're getting into. in fact, when i stepped on to the sub i just -- you know, part of my mind was going, well, this could be the end. >> wow. >> so

simpson stadium in alexandria, and i went by this money. the shooting six years ago, compared to eight major league diamond just how much foul territory you get. johna lot of room here at a big league ballpark. a ball that will stay just a little high, and deluzio trying to become the first base runner here at the top of the third inning. nationals park here in washington. hits him in the back right in the numbers. share a laugh about that. don't even think about it. chad: and he used to be a navy seal, so i am not sure that is who you want to mess with. john: calms things down as deluzio rages on a hit by pitch, and that will bring to the play jimmy panetta. a base runner to begin with the democrats here in the top of the third. steube with a large one that bounces and deluzio showing some really good wheels and he will come all the way to third base. how about deluzio going from first through third, and now a runner with 90 feet away from the democrats' second run. chad: he pretty much at that base stolen, and he stopped and the third base coach, former congressman from colorado, gave him the big wave. next thing you know he is on third base and
