1:02 am
the border patrol now leading the search for a 2-year-old missing in the rio grande. monday the woman told agents she had lost her daughter crossing the river. this comes a week after the harrowing image of a man and his daughter who drowned trying to cross the rio grande. nick valencia has more on conditions at the border from el paso, texas. >> reporter: this new report by the office of the inspector general is based off of five visits to the southern border, principally in mcallen, texas. what's clear is how overcrowded the facilities are. in some cases, migrants don't have enough room to lay down comfortably on the concrete. according to inspectors in this report, the conditions in these facilities are so dangerous they pose a health and safetyif risk not just to the agents but the migrants in custody. half of the 8,000 detainees in custody in mcallen were held longer than the 72 hours which is required under law.
1:03 am

people. >> the u.s. border patrol chief says the words of those few individuals on facebook directly undermines the public trust. president trump taking a direct shot at the supreme court days after it ruled the 2020 census cannot contain a citizenship question. the president tweeting, "it's a very sad time for america when the supreme court of the united states won't allow a question of is this person a citizen of the united states." he also vowed to keep fighting to add the question even though just hours earlier the administration announced a census question would not be on the 2020 census. it was wilbur ross who originally ordered the bureau to add the question. yesterday he said the bury would print the form without it despite his disagreement with the high court ruling. it's billed as a salute to america. but there are growing questions whether the president is planning a salute to trump. yesterday he claimed in a tweet that the pentagon and our great

military leaders are thrilled to be participating in a military parade. also sources tell us the president's political ally received some of the 500 vip seats. those tickets will grant entry to the areas closest to the lincoln memorial where the president will speak. remember the event is being held on the national mall, not a private space like the white house. that's not sitting well with former defense secretary leon panetta. >> if the president does -- the president does a great deal of harm by politicizing this event, i think the military, frankly, we have always taken the position, those of us that have been involved with the military, that we don't have to display our power to anybody. we're the strongest military power on the face of the earth. we don't have to roll tanks down the street. we don't have to roll troops down the street because we know that we are strong, and we can take on any enemy.

1:08 am
political event. so when people arrive on the national mall july 4th, what will they see in president trump's salute to america? there will be a flyover, some of the latest military aircraft, air force f-22s and f-35s. the plane that is used as air force one. the new marine one helicopter, the b-2 stealth bomber. there's also going to be a very small number of armored vehicles on the ground. dave, michelle? >> barbara, thank you. the president's big fourth of july bash will have a party crasher, though. the infamous 20-foot-tall balloon depicting the president as a baby in diapers. the national parks service issued a permit to the group, cold pink for the baby trump balloon to be displayed on the mall. regulations will prevent the balloon from taking flight during the event. the group expressing its frustration says the permit is not in the location it requested

1:11 am
was it a dig at a very english tradition? was it a reference to the boston tea party and july 4th week? regardless, it was a 30th birthday to remember for her. >> would you say it's the best birthday forever? >> i would say so. i mean, how can you beat this? yeah. >> reporter: what a night, as well, for goalkeeper alissa naeher, answering those who questioned her credentials in sensational form. she proved the match winner, she saved the penalty from england's captain later in the second half. it was as stunning as you would want a world cup semifinal to be. the usa know they'll be back here in the big one on sunday. later on wednesday we'll be finding out if it will be the netherlands or sweden who will be joining them. >> well hopefully rapinoe will be okay for the next one. even if it's just so that she can -- she can be there and play
