Jacksonville's Morning News Interviews Jacksonville's Morning News

YOU DECIDE 2024 coverage continues, as former President Trump hosted an outdoor rally in the Bronx, appealing to voters in the historically blue state of New York. RFK Jr. is still trying to negotiate his way into a presidential debate, angling to set one up on X, and is speaking at a Libertarian rally in an effort to draw more votes. Trump will be speaking at the same event tomorrow, for the same reason. Meanwhile, President Biden hosted a state visit from Kenya, where topics including aid for Haiti.

Meteorologist Garrett Bedenbaugh joins JMN with a detailed look at this weekend's forecast. Sunscreen and hydration are your friends as you make your way out to the Jazz Festival, the beaches, to backyard barbecues, or downtown for the Memorial Day ceremonies.

Harrison Conyers, City of Jacksonville's Director of Military Affairs and Veterans Department, joins JMN to discuss the Memorial Day ceremonies in downtown Jacksonville. This year, no new names have been added to the 1700+ names on Jacksonville's Memorial Wall, but all branches of the service will pay their respects to the fallen, and to the Gold Star families present. WOKV will start live coverage Monday at 8am, and the ceremony begins at 830am.

YOU DECIDE 2024 coverage continues, as GOP senators continue to vote against border control legislation despite their posturing, though this time some Democrat senators also voted against it. Resolving border legislation would deflate a campaign issue for both sides, so progress on this issue seems unlikely before the election. Meanwhile, President Biden hosted a state visit from Kenya, with aid resources for Haiti on the topical agenda for the visit.

Chandler Morgan has your update for what's new and what's different this Memorial Day weekend, so get out and enjoy!
