Trump vows to continue fair amid chaotic evacuation: ‘Don’t care if it’s 2 in the morning'
Following the severe weather evacuations at the Great American State Fair in Washington, D.C., President Donald Trump remained defiant and vowed to continue festivities – which include a massive fireworks show and a speech by Trump – even if it means waiting until “2 o’clock in the morning.”“We will wait it out, I don’t care if it’s 2:00 O’Clock in the morning, or in one hour from now,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social. “Looks like it is going to pass, they always do. I will be there no matter what, but the ‘what’ usually turns out to be a good thing. It’s Saturday night, LETS HAVE SOME FUN, even if we are out late tonight. They say 11:00 O’Clock for the speech. Who cares???”Chaotic scenes erupted at the fair Saturday evening after law enforcement officials directed attendees to leave the National Mall, and several hundred attendees initially refused to do so. The Secret Service suspended security screenings for the fair and urged attendees to “move to shelter immediately.”“I’m not going to let some rain stop our 250th,” Trump wrote. “I’m leaving the White House soon. God Bless America!”

1,000+ dead in France from heat as US faces July 4th heat wave
Half of all Americans are facing prolonged, dangerously hot temperatures from an intense heat dome as they head outdoors to celebrate the country’s 250th Independence Day. The temperatures in some spots in the eastern US, like New York City and Washington, DC, could be the hottest in over a decade, and numerous high temperature records are likely to fall in the coming days. This is after swaths of Europe were also under a heat dome, a vast area of stagnant high pressure that acts like a lid on a pot, trapping heat. Heat domes are not unusual, but are being supercharged by the human-driven climate crisis. 0:00 France: 1,000+ deaths linked to heat 0:19 Half of Americans brace for intense heat 3:10 How to stay safe in the heat 5:33 Why extreme heat kills 489,000 people a year 10:13 'No one is safe from heat' Watch 24/7 live news with CNN Headlines: https://bit.ly/4eIvlTr #News #heat #weather
