 This afternoon, the President and First Lady will host a barbecue with active duty military on the South Lawn. This will turn into a celebration event followed by viewing the fireworks show over the National Mall. Wednesday, White House spokesman Karine Jean-Pierre was asked if the President was going to appear more often unscripted without a teleprompter. And she said his July 4th event would be one such unscripted appearance. And I think that's going to be important. He'll be able to engage with them and thank them directly. She said he'd also sit for an interview with ABC Friday and was heading to Wisconsin that day, adding that there will be a press conference next week.
