We have 3 million europeans landed at jfk in new york airports in new york and new jersey, that is where the virus came from. Reporter perhaps the soundbite of the day came from Florida Governor ron desantis who lit up the media for his coverage of the handling of the virus. A lot of people in your profession who whacks politically for weeks and weeks about how florida was going to be just like new york not only to have a lower death rate but lower death generally, we have lower death rate, we succeeded and i think people just dont want to recognize it because the challenges their narrative, it challenges their assumption so they got to find a bogeyman.

The owner of the dam flooding homes in michigan, cited repeatedly for safety violations. Records show the dam fails to meet licensing regulations ahead of this weeks disaster, 10,000 people, look at the video, have been displaced by dramatic flooding.

Sailors are kept 6 feet apart during the ceremony to maintain social distancing but that is pretty awesome. 10 minutes after the hour. House democrats denied Supreme Court blocking access to more documents from the mueller probe. This within a Democrat Impeachment push, will this bad news for them end it once and for all . James come shows how desperate democrats are, he joins us live next. The Supreme Court unanimously blocking House Democrats efforts to get bob millers grand jury information released. Shannon the high Court Temporarily denying the documents from becoming public. James come super er joins us, thanks for coming on. What avenue do the democrats have now if they want to keep pushing impeachment . I dont think they have any avenue. The most shocking thing to me when reading about Nancy Pelosis reasoning for requesting that information was the fact she said they need it for impeachment, the democrats just cant let it go instead of calling congress back to take the business of the people and debate the important issues americans have right now nancy pelosi and her democrat colleagues are still focused on impeachment. Shannon this is what she said the houses longstanding right to obtain grand jury information pursuant to the houses impeachment power has now been upheld by the lower courts twice. These rulings are supported by decades of precedent and should be permitted to proceed. We wanted to read that statement. Im curious how you feel this means as we are inching closer to 2020, we are couple months i of this election. What does this mean timings otherwise . We are going through a pandemic, and economy that has been ravaged because of the forced shutdowns americans are trying to get the economy going again, get their lives back to normal nancy pelosi and the democrats are still focused on impeachment, democrats proved one thing during the regional impeachment inquiry and that is there was no collusion with russia, no wrongdoing with donald trump and ukraine. If anything with ukraine the wrongdoing was with hunter biden, the Vice President s son and im glad the u. S. Senate is starting to look into that because somebody needs to be held accountable. We will get to that in one second and talk more about hunter and burisma in just a second but for people that feel like impeachment is never going to end, mitch mcconnell, lets go ahead and listen. House democrats now claiming the impeachment that ended in february is not really over, perpetual investigation, perpetual impeachment, House Democrats would rather spend a fourth Consecutive Year trying to cram their politics into the legal system than actually given the country. This probe didnt help the democrats politically. A lot of people would help donald trump. Why would they go back to this . It seems very politically damning. Democrats do not have a plan for america. They dont have an agenda. Their sole focus is to try to win the presidency back and they feel the only way to do that is impeachment. I dont know that mobilizes the liberal wing of the Democrat Party but i can tell you in the last two special elections the republicans won and won by doubledigit margins even a suburban district in california so i believe the American People are sick and tired of democrats which went against the president , they Want Congress to get back to work, they want nancy pelosi to emerge from her multimillion dollar mansions get back to work, we have problems in America Congress needs to debate. Jillian Vote Along Party Lines issuing subpoena for Blue Star Strategies, a firm with ties to the Ukrainian Gas Company burisma holdings. Lets take a listen to what Chuck Schumer and ron johnson said about this. To bow down to Donald Trumps wild conspiracy theories is overtaken just about every senate republican. Democrats are objecting. Maybe they are protesting too much. It raises my suspicion level. Shannon what is your opinion on this . Of democrats are confident hunter biden and joe biden are innocent they should let the investigation proceed. I have a lot of questions. People need to be held accountable. We covered a coup attempt in congress and that is what the democrats tried to do. They tried to impeach a duly elected president of the United States. They had no evidence, no basis, they have proven that and as republicans are trying to hold people accountable for this and get to the bottom of the genesis of the russian collusion investigation the one missing piece of the puzzle is what role did hunter biden have in relationships with ukraine and was joe biden trying to cover that up. This needs to be answered and i am glad the senate is proceeding with it. Shannon a lot of people are curious how hunter biden got all that money from the Ukrainian Gas Company, none of that made any sense, thanks for your time. Appreciate it. Thanks for having me.

So tell me what it has been like the last few weeks in the last few months to make sure you could carry on this tradition. The birx county Veterans Affairs because of the covid19 happening everything has been in lockdown. The Flagstone Company that usually provide the flags to us to distribute to 50,000 veterans in birx county we had to do a little fight with them. Our governor, a nonessential company because of everybody standing up for their rights, he realizes it is a big tradition and he released a waiver to the company in order for us to do that. At the time birx county Veterans Affairs, volunteers, we have a group of veteran volunteers from world war ii, the vietnam war, desert storm, iraq war, volunteer with Veterans Affairs to do certain tasks. At which time the director kenny lebron called and asked if we could give the proper transport with the flags picking them up from the destination and over to Veterans Affairs. The picture you are looking at now, you gave it a motorcade, im curious what this means to you to be able to do this each year but especially this year when you have to fight to be able to do this. It takes a lot of red tape to get through but the county commissioners and Veterans Affairs did an outstanding job in making this happen. When we got the call to do the escrow, the blue knights Law Enforcement, activeduty retired Law Enforcement and veterans and correction officers, the largest Motorcycle Club in the world, we have 22,000 members, 650 chapters worldwide. Im curious emotionally what it means to you to be able to do this . From serving in iraq for two towards in 2017, 2008, being in for 28 years it is an honor, memorial day is just a day our soldiers sacrificed their lives to fight for our country. I was there. I made it back and i was with an infantry company. It means very very much and deeply in my heart to honor them on this special day. Means a lot to all of us and certainly your service, thank you for that. Thank you for sharing that story with us, we appreciate it.
