What did President Trump say during the America 250th celebration speech?
He mixed patriotism with politics. I'm Carmen Roberts, Fox News.
No people have done more good, shown more courage, made more progress, righted more injustice, or achieved more greatness than you, the American people.
At America's 250th birthday celebration in the nation's capital last night, President Trump praised the nation as the crowning achievement of human history.
The most extraordinary, most exceptional, most incredible nation ever to exist on the face of the earth.
And in a storm-delayed speech, he honored veterans, including several from World War II and one from being the first black officers to lead a special forces team in combat in Vietnam. He also used the speech to take aim at political opponents. He said we're pushing communistic ideas and again insisted Congress must pass the Save America Act voting bill. And Speaker Mike Johnson explains why the House did not try to pass that bill earlier, telling Fox News.
I just decided it was best to send everybody home to go celebrate July 4th in their districts. We'll come back, gather everybody together.
Why did Speaker Mike Johnson delay voting on the Save America Act?
Democrats argue the law would make voting harder, not safer. Noting, for instance, that 150 million Americans don't have a passport and millions of married women change their names and their birth certificates don't match anymore. A very dangerous typhoon puts people on Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands on high alert. super typhoon bavi is bearing down on the islands with winds approaching 175 miles an hour that is equivalent to a category 5 hurricane the national weather service is warning of catastrophic wind damage life-threatening storm surge and dangerous surface residents board up homes and businesses and the u.s territories are home to about 210 000 people several key american military bases as well america's listening to fox news

While President Trump was hailing the Brooklyn Bridge last night in his America 250 speech as one of the greatest architectural feats of all time, New York City firefighters were rushing to protect it from burning down. The fire broke out on the bridge during the city's Fourth of July fireworks show, and crowds could see flames spreading and setting off a plume of smoke. Four firefighters were able to extinguish that blaze.
What happened during the Brooklyn Bridge Fourth of July fire and how was it handled?
It's a big day for race fans. NASCAR is back in Chicago.
The NASCAR Cup Series is back at Chicagoland Speedway for the first time since 2019 as drivers compete in the Euro 400. The Chicago street course is no more after three seasons, but it's safe to say that this race will be an unpredictable one as roughly half of the field will run their first race on the track. And only three drivers have won there before, Brad Keselowski, Denny Hamlin, and Alex Bowman. This race Sunday also marks round two of the in-season challenge, a head-to-head single elimination tournament.
Which notable events and celebrity news closed out the newscast (NASCAR, country star divorce, ads)?
Round one was last week at Sonoma when Shane Vankesbergen took the checkered flag at the Toyota Save Mart 350. The action from Chicagoland begins at 6 p.m. Eastern. Tony Genualdo, Fox News.
No love song here.
A country music star is filing for divorce. John Pardee took to Instagram to reveal he and his wife Summer are getting divorced. In a joint post, Pardee and his wife announced they will be ending their marriage, writing in part, after much thought, we've made the difficult decision to end our marriage. always remain our highest priority, and we are committed to moving forward with love and respect as co-parents. Following that, Party also noted in a separate post that he will be continuing his shows throughout the summer, but will take a break from social media to better focus on himself and his family. The couple has been together since 2017. Michelle Polino, Fox News.
And again, we're watching a super typhoon that is bearing down on Guam and the Northern Marianas.
