Description

Today on America in the Morning

Biden & Trump Campaign
President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump spent the weekend on the campaign trail, with Biden rubbing elbows with Hollywood's elite while Trump courted African-American voters in Detroit. John Stolnis has more.
  
Michigan Splash Park Mass Shooting
It was a parent’s worst nightmare on a hot summer day. A gunman calmly walks into a Michigan town park, which became a scene of terror when the man suddenly and deliberately opens fire. Correspondent Jackie Quinn reports.
  
Wanted Illegal Captured
A man believed to be in the country illegally is charged in the murder of a mother of five who was killed while walking on a Maryland hiking trail last summer. Correspondent Clayton Neville has the details.
  
Maryland’s Mass Pardon
Maryland’s Governor Wes Moore is expected to announce today that he will issue a mass pardon for more than 175 thousand marijuana convictions.
   
Schumer’s Bump Stock Plan
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer announced on Sunday that he plans to bring up a vote this week on restoring a ban on bump stocks, after the Supreme Court invalidated a federal rule that outlawed the device last week.
  
Near Catastrophe
A Southwest Airlines flight came dangerously close to crashing into the ocean off the coast of Hawaii. Pamela Furr has more details.
  
Oregon’s Ride Rescue
A scary scene at an amusement park where multiple people were rescued after being trapped on a ride in Oregon. Lisa Dwyer reports some had to be pulled to safety while hanging upside down.
   
Hot, Cold & Stormy Weather
America is preparing for seven days of weather that includes nearly all the possibilities. While oppressive heat is the focus for as many as 135 million Americans this week, the potential also exists for hurricanes in the Gulf and Atlantic, and even snow in Mid-June. Correspondent Clayton Neville reports.
  
California Wildfires
The weather is also having an impact in California, where correspondent Julie Walker reports on a rapidly spreading wildfire north of Los Angeles that forced over 1,000 evacuations, burned more than 12,000 acres, and caused air quality concerns. 
  
Hockey Losing Popularity
Baseball may be America’s pastime and football popular to watch, but in Canada the answer to both would be hockey. However, as correspondent Mike Hempen reports, the favorite sport of Canadians seems to be in a solid decline.
  
Deadly Texas Shooting
There was a deadly shooting in central Texas during a community Juneteenth celebration.  Correspondent Jackie Quinn reports.
  
Latest Court Abortion Ruling
A judge has dismissed a lawsuit challenging federal rules to accommodate abortions for workers. Correspondent Lisa Dwyer reports.
  
Latest On Russia-Ukraine
A Ukrainian peace summit attended by nearly two dozen nations is yielding mixed results on ways to stop the conflict between Kyiv and the Kremlin. Correspondent Karen Chammas reports.
  
Tech News
Tech watchdog groups have asked the Justice Department to look into Google for an alleged unfair advantage by installing YouTube automatically on smartphones and TV's sold in the US. Here’s Chuck Palm with today's tech report.
    
Finally  
"Inside Out 2" is having a far-better-than-expected opening weekend in theaters. Entertainment correspondent Margie Szaroleta reports.
  
We have probably all heard commercials for what’s called “cutting the cord” – switching from cable to internet streaming services. But as Kevin Carr tells us, for some, the cost of the stream isn’t much better than the cost of cable, and the popular internet services are taking note.
