FOXNEWSW Shepard Smith Reporting July 2, 2019

Military hardware. Were expecting flyovers from a b52, a couple raptor jets, the f35 stealth flighter and the blue angels. Well also see air force one and the marine one chopper and osprey. And some action on the ground as well. We have pictures of two tanks that have arrived in d. C. Theyre m1 a1 abrams tanks. A photographer snapped the picks at a rail yard on the edge of d. C. The military said they shipped them from fort stewart in georgia. The president wanted tanks and other military vehicles to parade through washington, but that didnt work out. So instead of driving through d. C. , jets will be soaring above it. The president tweeted about the big plan. He said big fourth of july in d. C. , salute to america, the pentagon and our great military leaders are thrilled to be doing this and showing to the American People among other things the strongest and most advanced military anywhere in the world. Incredible flyovers and biggest ever fireworks. But the parade comes with some headaches as well. Which have nothing to do with the explosions of fireworks. Rich edson reporting live. Its more about patriotism than politics. The white house calls it a great call to patriotism on Independence Day that will honor all the Service Branches in the United States. The white house also says that any suggestions or accusations this is a political event are wrong. Thats ridiculous. This is all about a salute to america. The president is not going to get political. Hes going to celebrate the greatest country, the greatest idea in the history of the world. That is the United States of america. Well have a lot of surprises. One democratic congressman says the administration is throwing piles of money on the neverending bonfire of Donald Trumps vanity. Thats congressman don byer. He is turning it to a campaign event. He should personally reimburse u. S. Taxpayers and local governments for any damage to local infrastructure. Local d. C. Officials are also urning against the president s call to use tanks in the event fearing they would damage d. C. s roads and bridges. Democrats have requested information on how much this Independence Day event will cost. The government has offered no estimates. Officials have argued theres always been costs associated whenever the president speaks anywhere. After watching bastille Day Celebrations in 2017, the president said he would like to have a similar event in washington d. C. Up pennsylvania avenue. That never happened. Estimated costs of 90 million. The federal Aviation Administration has also announced that its going to be closing the airspace over Reagan National airport, the airport across the potomac river. Theyll do so from 6 15 to 7 45 p. M. Associated with the flyover for the president s event and then theres the closure and the 9 00 hour. That would be related to the fireworks display that happens every year here in washington d. C. , trace. Trace rich, stand by. Democratic lawmakers are filing a lawsuit in federal court to try to get President Trumps financial information. Members on the house ways and Means Committee are looking to enforce subpoenas to obtain the president s tax returns over the last six years. Back now to rich edson at the white house. Rich . The white house says the democrats are abusing their power on this one. The president has maintained to not voluntarily releasing his tax returns. That his taxes are under audit. Democrats are using that audit against the president. They say they want to investigate the president ial audit process to see if its working properly in this suit. They also say in refusing to comply with the statute, defendants have mounted an extraordinairy overreach of congress on behalf of the American People. The suit says news reports show that the president s Business Ventures and tax structures have shown an avoidance for taxes. The republicans say this is a way for democrats to obtain the president s Tax Information and release it publicly and to use it as a political tool. It also represents one of several fights ongoing between the democrats in congress that control the house trying to get information from the white house on the president s Business Ventures, on a host of other things, whether it comes to the unredacted version of the Mueller Report and the white house fighting that, trace. Trace meantime, mike pence cancelled an event in New Hampshire and rushed back to the white house. What do we know about that, rich . Right when the Vice President was supposed to be landing in New Hampshire, someone at the event came on stage and said the Vice President had to cancel the event and he was going back to washington for an emergency call back. The Vice President s office clarified that a bit in a tweet saying, the v. P. Never left washington d. C. There was no emergency call back. Something came up that required the v. P. To stay in d. C. And will reschedule New Hampshire shortly. Officials say the reason is unrelated to National Security or the health of the Vice President or the president , that we still have no specific reason as to why the Vice President abruptly cancelled that event in New Hampshire that was supposed to be about a discussion on the opioid crisis. Trace . Trace thanks, rich. Live at the white house. Iran denying a white house claim that it violated the nuclear deal long before signing it. Tehran confirms it did pass the limit for how much nuclear fuel theyre allowed to have. Now the Trump Administration has walked out of the deal. Trey yingst reporting live in our mideast newsroom. Trey . Its the standoff between the United States and iran continues after iran breached the uranium stockpile limit laid out in the nuclear deal. Iran claims they have not violated the deal, added that they have been transparent. They cannot have more than 300 kilograms of enriched uranium. Tehran is threating to break another commitment by enriching uranium above 3. 67 . The United States with drew from the Iran Nuclear Deal last year before reimposing sanctions. As irans economy crumbles, leadership in tehran is believed to have ordered a series of attacks on western links oil infrastructures before shooting down a drone. The u. S. Central command confirmed a dozen u. S. Fighter jets were deployed to qatar last week. The president said that iran is playing with fire, prompting a direct response from the speaker of the parliament. Mr. Trump needs to understand that when you use the language of a bully against a civilized nation, they Ballistic Missile more united. If he were to understand this notion a lot of the problems that they face in the region would be resolved. European countries look to ease the pressure. Japan and iraq have offered to mediate a peaceful resolution. So far no solutions have been found. Trace . Trey yingst live. Lets bring in john atman, the director for the middle east program at the center for strategic and international studies, a bipartisan policy research organization. John, thanks for joining us. Why would iran make this big announcement that it was deliberately violating the 2015 nuclear deal . Because they feel the nuclear deal has been violated by the United States. That theres no sense of urgency anywhere. They need to create a sense of urgency. They need to create a sense that people have to talk to the iranians because theyre suffering from the sanctions. I think what the whole episode the last month has been about is the iranians have not surprisingly tried to be alarming. Theyre trying to get the europeans to move the United States, trying to get the japanese to move the United States, trying to get the chinese saying something has to give. Their biggest fear is being ignored and suffering sanctions alone. Trace but now europe has a big decision to make. Either they can tolerate this and point fingers at the u. S. For pulling out of the deal or they can join the u. S. And ratchet the pressure up on iran for violating this deal. Seems to me if youre going to ratchet pressure up on iran, its to ratchets pressure on iran to do something, like negotiating. The President Administration has said they will negotiate with iran but havent done much to make it possible. The iranians are desperate to be in a negotiation but they dont want to give up anything. Secretary pompeo outlined 12 steps the things the iranians would need to do. Theyre united, i believe, in saying we want to talk to the americans, but the last thing we want to do is start making concessions just to get into the negotiating room. Theyre preoccupied with a relative weakness, vis a vis the United States and the last thing they want to do is give up stuff to have even less when they negotiate with the americans. They want to be in talks with us. Trace and i hear what youre saying. I know you dont think there was any evidence that they violated the 2015 deal. I want to read you something from the wall street journal. It says the withdrawal was prompted by many flaws uninclude ago sunset clause that iran could sprint to the bomb. I think the overlying them here is that iran has been a bad actor in the region for a very long time, john. They have been a bad actor but seems to me that the intention of the deal was to be the first step in a different kind of relationship with iran that would reward them for moving certain directions and have consequences if not. Now that there is arguably no deal, the u. S. Promised there would be Economic Relief. Instead, the u. S. There is no Economic Relief but a return of economic punishment. The european view and the japanese view and the view of russia and china and other parties to the deal is that iran is more desperate when theres no constraints and the u. S. Has begun to pull the threat, which means theres no constraints in iran. I dont disagree the weakness is a deal. My question for the Trump Administration is what are you going to do to get a better deal, under what circumstances can we Start Talking and get a better deal. Our allies would want us to have one, too. Trace you think that up President Trump should approach the ayatollah like he does kim jongun . I dont think we should be approaching kim jongun that well. I dont think we should be approaching the ayatollah that way. But i think that we can begin talking to the iranians. We can start small. The clear thing to me is, you have to be in talks because you get them to give up stuff when theyre talking. If youre not talking, they will try to do things to get attention to get people to push you to talk. We should be talking on our terms, not their terms. Trace thanks, john. Thank you. Trace a fox urgent now. This is the scene moments ago in charlotte, north carolina. Emergency crews responding to a home explosion.
