person. let us renew the pledge of bonds and loyalty that unite us together as americans. step-by-step, we are making america great again we re an american man we re coming to your town we re an american band. abby: live shot of the u.s. monterey in norfolk, virginia. we are celebrating america. we celebrate america every day on this show. but now we have a perfect reason to look like this. abby: yeah. pete: unintentional red, white and blue. we didn t plan it but we nailed it. abby: you certainly did. pete: if you can t wear a seersucker and bow tie, when can you. we told king george the iii get out. we don t want your tyranny and taxes we want a free people and land. then we fight a war. to actually keep that independence. we are here today. we should remember that. abby: i have so many good memories as a young girl we would have a pancake breakfast. everyone would bring their dogs out and the kids would be covered in red, white, and blue. day you are proud to be an american. accepted us your photos. send us your proud american photos. pete: my two favorite holidays fourth of july and thanksgiving. todd: same outfit for thanksgiving. we like it here on fox news channel. abby: good morning to all of you and happy fourth of july. we do want to begin with this. as you know, the president has made it clear from the very beginning how much he appreciates the men and women who served this great country. he said that is what the 4th of july is all about. take a listen. for 242 years, a long time, american independence has endured because of the sweat, blood and sacrifice of the american armed forces. families across our nation will gather to celebrate the fourth of july as we do, we will think of the minute and women serving overseas very moment far, far away from their families, protecting america, watching over our people. they are there and they are with us, and they are brave. these are incredible people. and we will thank god for blessing us with these unbelievable heroes. pete: great message from the president. marc thiessen said something that mental a lot to me worth repeating again. not a speech you would hear on the continent of europe. from a european prime minister. so proud of the money we have spent on military. biggest and baddest and prevent the world from tyranny. advances freedom. that s a great speech. todd: people don t understand by spending 716 billion next year you are preventing wars. when i went to interview those ice spoke folks, people protesting ice i should say a couple weeks as we don t want to spend on military we want everything to be open borders. i don t think they understand spending on our military allows us to be a free country and accept immigrants, period. if we don t do that we are in a mess that people like pete have fought so hard to defend us. pete: if we don t do that, we are europe. in 1776 we said we are done with europe. abby: fourth of july it s such a good reminder it is about the men and women who certain they make it so we are free. they give us this great country and allow us to do what we love to do right? it s why we still are the best country on earth. rush limbaugh, if you were listening to him, he gave some advice how you should celebrate independence day. be as american as you can be. be american. go out and just do what you would normally be inclined to do but don t be intimidated into flying the flag. don t be intimidated by any patriotic activity. you never know the impact it s going to have. this whole immigration, open borders no, borders is about changing or erasing america as is and the battle is between those who want america to remain america and those who don t. pete: okay, rush. okay. be as american as we can be. let s just do it up big, be proud. but actually, his point is a deeper one than just wear a bunch of red, white, and blue. souter of what the president has said for a long time. patriotism in america should unite us. the values that we believe in that are enshrined in that declaration of independence are what has made america special. let s not forget them and get rid of them. let s reinforce them and remind and teach. i would say read the declaration of independence to you r your kids today. at least the poignant parts that they would understand and say they had a lot of grievances. the foot of the bricks was on it anbring ofthe brits wae said no more. abby: such a divisive and hateful time. at the fourth of july, why are above everything else we are americans. how often we forget that we are all here fighting for the same cause. fighting for out freedom. that s what we need to celebrate today. as rush limbaugh said don t be ashamed. put out those american flags. todd: there is a poll out with regard to the president s approval rating this is pretty interesting special what abby has said in light of the immigration approval. 47% approval railing. that s a great shot. that s up 2%, so it s. pete: it s a harris harvard poll. worth reflecting on now after the last month amend the fourth of july. the president s approval rating up 2% over the last month. his approval rating up 10% amongst hispanics. we were told zero tolerance policy what was happening at the border was going to be his katrina. he was his support was going to crater and instead it s gone up and amongst hispanics. those who are supposed to expect or impact the most among the southern border. approval rating going up 10%. those here legally believe in a border. we welcome immigrants. we just don t want won ton illegal immigration we are where we don t know what s coming in our country. they thought they had the issues to get him with and instead his numbers have gone up. abby: also, it s about the economy. if you come to the country you want to live that american dream. this is where the opportunities are you look at the numbers right now with how the economy is doing. there is a reason why people are feeling good there is a reason why people are happy. they have more money in their pocketbook. give more money to their kids. that s what this is all about giving your children a better future than you have had as a lawyer excited about the supreme court. this is going to be an absolutely huge week. the president going to name his supreme court nominee coming up on monday. here is what he had to say earlier about his pick. he said it s going to be a home run. that s a home run. i have spent the last three days interviewing and thinking about supreme court justices, such an important decision. and we re going to give you a great one. we are going to announce it on monday. i think you will be very impressed. these are very talented, brill yengts people and you will love it like justifiable gorsuch. we hit a home run there. and we are going to hit a home run here. pete: he wants to hit another home run. certainly did with gorsuch. met with seven potential candidates to be the next supreme court pick. but the left predictably going after one of the favorites. her name is judge amy connie bathe. shbarrett. she is catholic. a lot of catholics in america that have served on the court and been president. this is what the media had to say about her. it s a dubious position but i m sure whoever if he does pick a woman it will be known as aunt lid afterthe supreme court. she will be a woman to be expected to take away a right women have had in america since 1973. amy barnt went to notre dame very catholic. interesting bio. catholic, seven children. the member of a small religious group called the people of praise. where members swear a loyalty oath. what they call a covenant. interesting religious group that labels heads of households, the men the heads, the women the hand maidens. ainsley: do you know who aunt lydia is anyone who watches hand maid s tail? she abuses women it is about the worst thing you could call another woman. so, that is quite an attack coming from the left. todd: also on the hand maid s portion do you know what it takes to be on this short list for the supreme court? do you know what it takes to clerk for a supreme court justice. i went to law school with amazing lawyers. my weren t even in the conversation she clerked for judge antonin scalia. on extremely short list to be literally at the height of her profession and look how she is being discussed in the media. abby: that s not the focus, todd. we have seen this time and time again goes back to roe v. wade. kimberley strassel, a fox news contributor, no matter hot pick is, it will be a smear campaign. people who do not like donald trump, who are very worried about what this new pick will do to the shift of the court are not going to be talking about the constitution or separation of powers or judicial philosophy. they re going to make this into a smear because it s going to be their best and only shot to try to stop someone because they can t do it on the basis of arguing they are not qualified for the court. pete: email what you think about this at friends@foxnews.com. i think they hate judge amy barrett so much that s who we should pick. the left reveals themselves time and time again. their hatred is channeled towards probably what the president should do. email us at friends@foxnews.com about. abby: today who we live in jillian mele. jillian: right back at you. happy fourth to you, too. get you caught up on headlines starting with brand new video. the youth soccer team trapped in a cave in good health. doctors now volunteering to stay with them for up to four months until floodwaters recede. the plan is to pull them out tunnels using diving gear. they won t attempt to move them until tomorrow at the earliest. they went into the cave for initiation ritual. independence day celebration all across the country. new york police are on notice days after terror plot was stopped in cleveland. 6,000 officers patrolling the city by ground, sky, and water. radiation detexas systems within the hull of the boat give us radiation detection. looking for a dirty bomb on the water. the. jillian: the nypd says no credible threats have been made ahead of tonight s fireworks display. nathan s getting ready for hot dog eating contest today. last year he set a record devouring 72 hot dogs in under 10 minutes. before that though, he beat pete on the plaza. pete: hot dogs are really good. i do my best. took down 5 hot dogs in a minute compared to pete s three. what do you have to say for yourself. he did 72 i think i get like 50. abby: you did pretty well, pete. abby: so gross. pete: no, wonderful. mike pompeo hours away from traveling to north korea as president trump gears up for meeting with vladimir putin. dr. sebastian gorka says the trump doctrine is in full effect. he s up next. wednesdays. at outback, they re for steak and beer. walkabout wednesdays are back! get a sirloin or chicken on the barbie, fries, and a draft beer or coca-cola all for just $9.99. hurry in! wednesdays are for outback. outback steakhouse. aussie rules. hurry in! wednesdays are for outback. you finished preparing overhim for college.rs, in 24 hours, you ll send him off thinking you ve done everything for his well-being. but meningitis b progresses quickly and can be fatal, sometimes within 24 hours. while meningitis b is uncommon, about 1 in 10 infected will die. like millions of others, your teen may not be vaccinated against meningitis b. meningitis b strikes quickly. be quick to talk to your teen s doctor about a meningitis b vaccine. hello. let s go for a ride on a peloton. let s go grab a couple thousand friends and chase each other up a hill. let s go make a personal best, then beat it with your personal better than best. let s go bring the world s best instructors right to you. better yet, let s go bring the entire new york studio - live. let s go anytime, anywhere, with anyone who s willing. and let s go do it all right here. ready to go?

will. abby: here to react is tomi lahren. good to see you. happy fourth of july. happy fourth, guys. good to be here. abby: future of the party abolish ice, free college and free healthcare. is that the future of the democratic party? boy, i have got to till as an american it terrifies me that self-professed socialists are winning primary elections and we have the dnc chair cheering that on. as an american that does terrify me. because i know what it means to be a socialist nation and that s not what we should ever become. but, as a republican, as a trump supporter, i m happy that the democrats are finally being transparent. they want open borders. they want to abolish ice. they want to abolish the rule of law. this is what the democrats want for this country. as a trump supporter and conservative, i think it s going to make the mid terms easier for us. because i think the american people are smarter than that. pete: key word transparency. this is not the first time. if it were not for raiding system, bernie sanders who san avowed socialist would have been their nominee. aren t they already here? you would think so, but i think it s getting progressively worse. also, i would like to remind the young people because there has been poll after poll that stated that young people are becoming more comfortable with socialism. they are becoming more comfortable with socialism because they don t know what socialism is. they hear cortez and bernie sanders talk about socialism and about equality and free things. that quickly descends into a black market for toilet paper as seen in venezuela. i would encourage all young people who believe they are socialists or democratic socialists to take a lesson and find out what it is before they are rooting for it. abby: somebody has to pay for it. todd: how does this cut with regard to the mid terms. i think it s going to be great for trump supporters and republicans. i think middle america those states that really propelled trump to victory i think they are smarter than. this they don t want to see socialism. i m glad democrats putting their platform out there. i many have faith for the american people. i don i don t think we will seea blue wave. i think wwave. abby: you look great in your red, white, and blue. what is your message to the country on the fourth of july. first and foremost, thank those serving our country both here and abroad, because of them that we re able to celebrate today and able to barbecue grill and go to the beach. because of them. so many aren t able to be with their families today because they are serving our nation. i think it s important to remember those folks. but, beyond that i also think it reminds us we live in the greatest nation on the fails of the earth. we have a duty to defend and protect that we have to defend liberty and the rule of law. we have a lot to lose. we have great country. keep it that way. pete: we left europe for a reason let s not try to become europe again. america is a special place. tomi lahren, thank you very much. thank you, guys. todd: remember debbie wasserman schultz s former it aid he?

that s politically motivated. economic literature clearly shows us studies that were done before mr. trump was even on the horizon. if you cut taxes on investments to lower the cost of investing you will get a lot more investment. that s exactly what s happening. this is not a boom of people running out and buying toasters have china. this is a boom being driven by business confidence, people basically paying more for homes because they like them and can afford them but also businesses investing in machinery and technology and improvements that will boost the economy not just this year but every year to come. that s the kind of dynamic growth you get when you don t do a handout but you do a handup with tax cuts. todd: you just mentioned china. critics are going to say a trade war is looming. that could derail the economy. do you buy that?

has endured because of the sweat, blood, and sacrifice of the american armed forces. families across our nation will gather to celebrate the fourth of july as we do we will think of the men and women serving overseas as this very moment far away, far, far away from their families, protectings america, watching over our people. they are there and they are with us. and they are brave. these are incredible people. and we will thank god for blessing us with these unbelievable heroes. pete: great speech yesterday the president gave in west virginia. abby: by the way you will remember he won west virginia by 70%. pete: he pointed out yes, he did. he pointed out how the g.d.p. has skyrocketed under his administration as jobs have returned. abby: he was in a very comfortable territory yesterday. pete: absolutely as is he talking about vets and the military. as i noted last hour and worth noting, you would never hear that speech from a european president talking about the 700, $760 billion we now spend on our military and the crowd goes wild because this country has always known freedom comes at a cost you have to defend it and that comes through a military that does that. todd: as we have talked about all week long, there are a lot of people in our very country right now who really don t want many of those individuals, men and women who protect our freedom specifically protect our borders we re, of course, talking about ice and law enforcement. and, of course, the president weighed in on that. let s take a listen to what he had to say and we will break it down for you. when it comes to ice and border patrol and all of these incredible people that you have been reading about, doing an unreal job. we wants border security. we want security in our country, we respect ice, you know, ice is the one, these are tough people and you have to be tough i larry democrats saying we want to abandon ice. we want to abandon. we are not abandoning ice. and we are not abandoning our law enforcement. abby: you hear the president say that and all the while throughout this country have you got vandals that are outside of g.o.p. offices. you have protesters outside of ice in philadelphia. have you got obviously the marchers we saw over the weekend. thousands coming out. many of them shouting abolish ice. you see two extremes going on in this country now. the president protecting them for their service. very best among us. do a lot to protect us. they do more than dealing with immigration. they deal with human trafficking and counter terrorism. the list goes on and on and on the other side of that you have got liberals that are saying let s just do away with the entire thing. pete: you said two extremes. what you also mean is president trump s position isn t extreme. it s the standard is it those who throw a bring and write abolish ice or assault police in philadelphia and want to abolish ice when they don t recognize when you don t have a border and don t have border patrol and internal enforcement you don t have the rule of law. yesterday i did a segment with one of the guys searched with in iraq talked about what makes america so different that we have laws and those laws are enforced and enforced equally amongst all americans regardless of gender and background. that isn t the case in so many other countries in this world. that is simply what the president is saying. we have laws and we are going to enforce them and the left has decide he had they want to ignore all of that he feels like he has found an issue that perfectly juxtaposes these modern parties. we saw the harris harvard poll. the president s numbers have gone up 2% and amongst hispanics 10% when the left thought this was going to be crin moment. they literally said this is going to be his katrina moment 10%. abby: a lot of the people aren t talking about the economy. they are talking about living in this country. i talked to democrats about what s going on with ice and that young woman who won in queens and socialism. and you have the democratic party very much divided right now. they don t some of them don t want to associate themselves with that i think moving forward they will have to figure out in the mid terms 2020 what party are they? what do they stand for? do they want to be on the streaks end of everything? is that going to b bring people to the polls? todd: we get in the weeds so much on this show on the policy. i m going to take a step back for a moment. do these individuals not want america? just the. connell: september of america? pete: that s actually a great question. todd: i don t understand. you grow up in this country and see things like the fourth of july and memorial day and veterans day where we celebrate all the brave men and women who made us and i just don t understand i can understand not agreeing with every policy of every government. but there is a difference between the government and the nation. you still have to be behind the nation. pete: that s exactly right. abby: we are all americans first. pete: the failing new york times did not fail today they printed the declaration oof independence on the back of this. when you read it and it is about limited government and freedom. rights endowed on us by a creator. life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness all men created equal. if you look back on that, it s a powerful reminder of where we should be. i sometimes feel frustrated remake. restore us to the core values. abby: go read the declaration of independence to your kids today. what a perfect time to do it. speaking of this great country there is a country band and song that they played called i stand for the flag. stars and stripes so much more than that old piece of cloth on your grandma s porch a american dream be anything that we want to be don t care if you are black or white or who you love i stand for the flag and the flag stands for all of us todd: wow, that s inflammatory. abby: it s fourth of july. what s wrong with that song? it s about standing for the flag. being proud to be american. facebook for eard poofer time censored that song. and they have been trying to deal with their own balance. they then sent out this statement we recently announced anyone running ads about political or other major national issues must include a paid for label after looking again we determined that this ad doesn t need that label. pete: doesn t take thatch work to see that t. doesn t need that label. i bet this band, the west cook band they paid attention to it and immediately went at facebook. reminder for conservatives and americans pay attention and agitate. i don t know how it went down. but, speak up if you feel like you are being censored. abby: you have collin kaepernick. and stand for the flag on facebook gets censored. todd: divisive language in that song don t care if you are black or white or how love. i stand for the flag and the flag stands for all of us. wow, that s very controversial. come on, facebook. pete: they got it right, i guess in the end but stay on them. friends@foxnews.com. were you triggered or offended on this fourth of july or download i stand for the flag by th wes cook band and pray at your bar barbecue t. jillian: it is a beautiful song. listen to the lyrics. tree branch comes crashing down during a

charming and better looking in person. todd: today uncle jessi and today this is a full house week. pete: cut it out. todd: that was impressive. pete: we messed it up the first three or four times and

make sure rereorient our military to understand software as opposed to just hardware. all those things that are necessary to fight today s wars and tomorrows. pete: we can never predict what the next war can be. we always want to but usually get it wrong. are we prepared for a conventional war if necessary and prepared for counter insurgency or regular warfare? where should would he be focused? well a little bit of both, quite frankly as you very well know. we still have a counter insurgency going on in many areas. around here we stand for our flag and we know anything that s going on with

well, from my personal standpoint, i really felt like i needed to be a void voice for other siblings. i realized after sam was killed that there wasn t enough support for the siblings. you know, our role after military death and i mean, can i only speak from a military death. but our role is to support the parents and the spouse. and you know, a sibling s grief is really postponed, you know, oftentimes several years because there s a mind set of i need to put my grief off. abby: any advice that you learn through these past six and a half years that have made you stronger that have made it a little easier to get through? you know, i think well, personally, my faith has really just been what s happened me move forward. but, i think a lot of times siblings, they look too far into the future and say how am i going to live the rest of my life without my sibling?

abby: thank you, jillian. as the president eyes potential supreme court nominees. liberal media going after one possible pick targeting judge amy barrett for her faith. amy barnett went to notre dame. she is very catholic. kind of a dubious position but i m sure if he does pick a woman she will be known as aunt lydia of the supreme court. religious group who labels heads of households the men the head the woman the hand maiden. todd: unreal. rachel campos-duffy here to react. thank you for being with us here on independence day. thank you. todd: when you hear comments like that from fellow women, let s call it what it is, what do you think? yeah. well, first of all, it s interesting that they are really letting this strategy out of the bag. i mean, this is their strategy they are going to take her down. and this hand maid s tale as an i couldn t brought this up earlier. this is a reference to a show where aunt lydia is the the villain. she hurts and subject gates subr women. this is what women think of conservative women that we re traitors to our gender. interestingly as well, all the hysteria about over trump and also this nomination. revealed. abby: does this fire up the base because she is being treated like this before we even know who the pick is? does that give her even a better shot at getting that appointment? i hope. so there may be some senators that are worried. remember, this is such an important, you know, nomination and they really want to get this done before the mid terms. so i hope it doesn t hurt her chances. she sounds like a very interesting woman. she is imminently qualified. again, revealing the intolerance. when you hear them say she is catholic. they say she is very catholic. todd: very catholic. ominous voice about her. i m sorry? pete: rachel, you are very catholic and we love her. they are afraid of her, rachel. she a woman. she is articulate. already been confirmed 55 to 43 for a lower court. and it s on the short list. are they not revealing how scared they are. maybe the as opposed to right on target if they hate her this much this early. absolutely. another thing they keep bringing up, pete, is she has seven kids. gaffe. that s something that they find very weird. they don t like it. and whereas conservatives see a woman with a big family and a big career as really as something to celebrate advancement of feminism and all the things that females have been working for over the ages here. this is seen as a warning sign to the liberals that this woman is a religious zealot, maybe even weird and definitely not qualified to sit on the highest court. really sad, very revealing. abby: i feel you two would have a lot in common. it s a harvard harris poll has trump s approval rating at 47%. the interesting piece of this he is up 10 points among hispanic voters. you know what the narrative has been over the past few weeks with immigration and what s going on at the border. are you surprised to see that spike among hispanics? the democrats have been offering big government and government dependency hispanics. if you know anything about hispanics what any want is opportunity and they want to work and they love to start businesses. they start them at three times the rate of any other demographic in america. they love this trump economy. i will also say this, in the last week we saw the left really gushing over nominating a socialist. hispanics know firsthand two things. one, the importance of rule of law. that s why they leave many of those countries, there is no respect for rule of law. but, also, socialism, they know what poverty and corruption and violence it brings. that s why they leave those places. i think the liberals and the democrats they can gush all they want. hispanics don t want that. they want to work. they want opportunity and they want the american dream and frankly, a government check is not going to deliver that dream. pete: i have a feel you have a big old barbecue there in wisconsin today. am right? i would love to say that but i m a political spouse. we re hitting about six parades. abby: political parade i know those well. pete: get your walking shoes on. abby: dress your kids red, white, and blue. pete: they will be it duffy plaid. abby: flannel. hours away from returning from north korea. what can we expect from new visit?

that s an easy question. you had an opportunity to spend time with boats, an opportunity to ride great warship and take away for you the young men and women who make the great that work very well. less than 1% decide to serve and set them up for success. getting to meet several 350 sailers on board, they are part for human rights around the world, being the ship that fired tomahawk missiles in syria, what s the significant of that event in history? for the united states navy our job is to defend and my job in part of that is to prepare the ships to go do that and they did that when called upon. for the ship and this navy, the idea is to be there. they proved it. thank you so much for your service. hope you have quality time with sailors and hopefully watch fireworks. and thank you for joining us in great american city, we couldn t do it with towns here at norfolk. as always, every year we do ussr proud american coverage. i want you send pictures with red, white and blue and hanging out with your family as well as remembering service members an sacrifices they give so we can have our freedom, thank you in new york. pete: absolutely. #proud america, fight for freedom requires men and women just like that as well as the guy dan tick caliber machine gun. that helps, you to defend your freedom to keep it. days like this are a stark reminder. abby: did he say less than 1%? pete: true. abby: we need to continue to give them everything we possibly can to let them be successful and give them a good life because they are truly heros among us. this is something that president trump has talked about early days in the campaign and continue today make this such a priority in the white house and he spoke about them yesterday and said this is what the fourth of july is about and gave them his thanks. for 242 years, a long time, america independence has endured because of the sweat, blood and sacrifice of the american armed forces, families across our nation will gather to celebrate the fourth of july as we do we will think of men and women serving overseas as this very moment far away, far, far away from their families protecting america, watching over our people. they are there and they are with us and they are brave. these are incredible people and we will thank god for blessing us with these unbelievable heros. one of that less than 1% is abby and i, we will say it at 8:00, thank you, pete for your service. pete: i appreciate it. the guys are still out there, guys and gals still defending our nation. fourth of july i will never forget sitting in iraq popping flairs and skies and raise the beer. abby: that s what i love our military. every time you say thank you for your service, no, no, it s not just me, everybody else. what s getting lost in shuffle of immigration, antilaw enforcement, antimilitary field coming out of antiice movement. without a strong military that shows the world we are not messing around, that is when wars happen, that s when problems happen. when the president raises the stakes and says we will do $716 billion for our military instead of cutting like previous administrations, that signals to the world we are here, don t mess was and that s going to keep us the most safe and protect our brave men and women from actually entering war. that s a great point, if you forget history, easy to be seduced by socialism, democratic socialism or the idea that we don t need border and eyes when our founders founded the idea on rule of law, treating everybody equally but u.s. citizens that want to be part of the country being here, remember history, read the declaration today. emphasize the importance of this day, not just the fourth of july, independence day, we rejected king george and said we want to govern ourselves and we have for 242 years, good willing another 200. abby: the reason we are all able a great life here because of men and women that do what they do. when we look at american flag and today is about the red, white and blue on the set here and being reminded of what the flag means to us, goes back to the men and women that do protect the country, that put themselves in harm s way to give us the opportunities that we have. so there was a great song out by this country band, it s called i stand for the flag, speaking of american flags and here is how that goes. abby: beautiful song, beautifully lyrics, we stand for the flag and much of people s surprise it was sense ored on facebook for a period of time. facebook came back with reaction, statement, we recently anyone running ads of political or national issues must include a paid-for label, we determined that this ad doesn t need that label. pete: yeah. thank you captain obvious facebook but the problem is the flag in some quarters has become political, has become political statement and that s what the president fought against. the red, white and blue should unit us and has through history, supporting military and cops, so when you hear a song like that, by the way, download the west week band and download the song and blast it at barbecue today. i guess there s a question why does facebook have a presumption against patriotism? what about the song flagged facebook? the national anthem. the liberals at facebook headquarters, oh, oh, this is going to trigger people. abby: this is what makes people frustrated about what s going on with the nfl. let s not make patriotism political. that is something that everyone should stand together and let s separate. we have been asking what you think about this this morning, what do you think about the song and how facebook responds, this comes from jim, i want to run a radio station in tennessee, thanks for facebook i stand for the flag which just added to play list. pete: facebook is showing true colors and i could see they are not red, white and blue. true. you have to give them credit for going and changing by why this happened in the first place. pete: mark zuckerberg and coastal elites, if you re a global citizen and the idea is internationalism, then america can be seen controversial and not as exceptional as it should be. abby: let s just say that s a great song, we should all be proud of that because that makes this country great. what place we want to get to, upstairs with the great partner coming up later on jillian mele. jillian: let s start with fox news alert, wasn t person dead after tree branch crashes down during fireworks show. near iowa border, they heard crack when the large tree limb fell in crowd. bistanders jumped into action to save victims trapped. soccer team trapped in ceaf in good health, boys given blankets and food after being stranded more than a week. the plan to pull out the team through narrow tunnels with gear but won t attempt to move them tomorrow at the latest. boys went to cave or initiation ritual. the final leg of trip is in finland for meeting with trip, this is the first trip since undergoing surgery in may. a couple brings quadruplets. to celebrate good health the hospital wraps them in patriotic blankets. abby: quadruplets. wow. i can only handle one at this point. pete: totally. abby: so fun to have four. pete: something at the dinner table. [laughter] pete: well, secretary of state mike pompeo just hours away from returning to north korea, what can we expect from this new visit? that s coming up next. and i allude today it earlier, like three minutes earlier, we are bringing black yard classic to the plaza, yes, we are having independence tournament, pete and abby versus jillian and me, it is on like pete poot donkey kong. thank you, on independents day. our enamel. it s going to make them more resistant to the acid erosion so that your teeth are not bothering you and you feel good about your smile. it s pro enamel. it s good for your enamel. it s a positive thing. you shouldn t be rushed into booking a hotel. with expedia s add-on advantage, booking a flight unlocks discounts on select hotels until the day you leave for your trip. add-on advantage. only when you book with expedia. add-on advantage. when did you see the sign? when i needed to create a better visitor experience. improve our workflow. attract new customers. that s when fastsigns recommended fleet graphics. yeah! now business is rolling in. get started at fastsigns.com. pete: secretary of state mike pompeo heading back to north korea this week to press them on denuclearization as the state department pushes back against critics claiming that u.s. is in a, quote, good spot to negotiate. so what can we expect out of this trip, morgan ortegus, former state department press officer and joins us to weigh in and former officer. go navy. i will not respond. we are getting reports that north korea hasn t stopped development, what do you this. anybody watching north korea more than 5 minutes should not be shocked. i think the administration has said hearly bolton said on the sunday shows last week that they are cleared eyed about what s going on that no one is, you know, disallusioned that the north korea s are coming in good faith. i think that the administration is very well aware of history with north korea and everything they have done with the united states. now comes the tough part. a lot of people want to throw water on this. it s been 3 weeks since the summit. pete: has been 3 weeks, time is of the essence. should he secure their assurances with ability to verify that they are going to stop building, obviously we stopped seeing missiles launched, how quickly could we get the beginning of verification and things like that? for total denuclearization, bolton set out a timeline of the year, mike pompeo suggested before congress but here is what s going to happen, the beginnings to have conversations, the devil is in the details, what happens right now, both sides at dmz, they are negotiating, secretary pompeo comes this week, he has a couple of different ways in which he can summit a plan, here a couple of things he will be looking for, full transparency from the north koreans and obviously intelligence communities have ways but wants north koreans what are your stockpile of weapons, what are your facilities, what do you po says and really the united states needs to see good-faith effort that north koreans will come to the table and come clean about secret facilities and then look, are they going to haul production of materials, that s a really important step in the process, pete, because once you halt production, that means current weapons cannot be are not taken. pete: do we want into the meeting with intelligence, hey, this is what we know, we know you are doing, this will you admit it and show it to us. i would like to see good-faith effort to present the list and present timeline, what is the process, the whole process of denuclearization, they have approximately 20 to 60 weapons, they are destroyed in the beginning of the end of the process, most experts think at the end, this is about establishing full transparency and establishing a timeline that both sides can agree to and also i would say that it is important for the north koreans to take some steps, for example, our pow remains from the korean war, that s still those are not been given back to us, we don t know why, we are hopeful that the secretary can come back with those. there needs to be process of steps that we can verify that north koreans are acting from good faith, from their perspective, they need to trust us too. they want to see the economic sanctions, they want to see relief, that want to make sure we don t want to take over the country. a lot of mistrust on both sides and a lot of trust that needs to be gained in really important meetings. pete: morgan, a lot of people see you on fox and don t know that you served overseas. i want to thank people who have served overseas, i know what it is to spend holidays away from families, thank you, thank you to men and women serving overseas. pete: well done. go navy. pete: go army all the way. president trump has a message for them. anne harris faulkner live from ussr monterey, we will check live with them coming up next for years i ve trained dogs for the marines - like me, some of these dogs have seen many tours of duty. and for the past 15 years i ve been a navy federal member. thanks to their fast approval process, when it came time to buy a new car, we got everything we needed to transport my wife s little bundle of joy. . who i just adore. open to the armed forces, the dod, veterans and their families. navy federal credit union. abby: happy fourth of july quick headlines for you, these may seem like toys but this is flame-spitting fireworks, police in north carolina warning parents about explosive that is look like my little pony and dragon toys, turns out they shoot fire out of their mouths and their horns. and wal-mart is pulling mp45 apparel including this baby onesie, antitrump clothing was not sold directly by retail giant but third-party seller on website. wal-mart is now removing the items and reviewing their policies. probably a good thing. this independence day morning we are heading to virginia, anna live on the deck of uss monterey joins us with a few special guest. yeah, happy independence day, we will be on the ship around norfolk, virginia all day long, so make sure you tune in for special programming as you send pictures, e-mail us, red, white and blue pictures, look what i found. the lady of the cover of this book. harris faulkner, how are you?
