Summary

While states like New York, New Jersey and Connecticut are beginning to reopen again in phases, other states like Florida, Texas and Arizona are reporting their highest coronavirus case numbers. Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease weighs in on the resurgence of Covid-19 cases in some of the sunbelt states. He also discusses the importance of wearing a mask and social distancing and why it's important to get the message across to young people. As President Trump cracks down on protestors attacking historical monuments, he'll go to Mount Rushmore later this week for a Fourth Of July event. The trip has become controversial as some critics question his tribute to four former presidents as insensitive. South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem defends Mount Rushmore and explains how her state is preparing for the event amid the threat of the coronavirus and protests. Plus, commentary by Geraldo Rivera, Fox News correspondent-at-large. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
