Today. No reports of injuries. Stay at home orders remain in effect, and the contagion continues to worsen. As of this hour the chinese coronavirus labeled covid19 has affected 856,000 americans and killed 47,000 more. This as the Left Wing National Media once again pushing headlines that dont match stories. The Financial Times using leaked data from the World Health Organization to report that gileads drug remdesivir flopped in its first trial. The headline had investigators selling on wall street until gilead pointed out that study was terminated because it had low enrollment. And as such the study is simply inconclusive. Well have much more on this study. Also the latest developments in the fight against the virus later in the broadcast. There are breaking developments on capitol hill where house lawmakers are voting on a 484 million rescue bill to help Small Businesses to provide more money for hospitals and testing. The bills passage bringing Congress Response to nearly 3 trillion. New jobless numbers show 4. 4 million americans applying for unemployment. Now 26. 5 million americans have applied the last five weeks. The Money Congress approved has new rules attached to it. The Small BusinessAdministration Today issuing guidance making it less likely the publicly traded companies would have access to this round of money. For more on this we turn to Edward Lawrence in washington. Reporter you talked about the unemployment numbers. Kevin mccarthy says the democrats owe the American People an apology. Some of those americans would have been able to keep their jobs had the program went forward. He blames nancy pelosi for allowing it to run out of money for seven days. This bill is 16 days too late despite the denials you heard. We could have agreed on this bill in 16 minutes, republicans and democrats. It got held up for extracurricular stuff. It was delayed. Real people lost their jobs as a result. Reporter the focus after it passes the house is it will go on to the white house. President trump will see that house tonight on his desk. Democrats tried to tush to turn this debate back on republicans in the senate. We are trying to get to the place where we think we are giving the needed resources. We think the initial request was short changing hospitals and testing. Reporter of all of those things, republicans say they are all important. But the only Program Running out of money was the Payroll Protection Program that kept employees in their job. The sba is already look at guidelines so they can go to banks on friday and the loans can be processed through on saturday or sunday. Lou thank you very much. Joining us tonight is National Economic council director, larry kudlow. What will be the immediate effect of this legislation, the 484 billion . Its going to help. As much cash and liquidity that we can pour into the economy is part of the largest rescue effort in the history of the United States. Kudos to kevin brady. We knew it was going to run out of money. The president and mnuchin were ready to work on it. Now well get it done. Small businesses will absorb this rapidly and hopefully payrolls will be intact. Five weeks of unemployment insurance. Those are rough numbers. There is a hardship here. The whole story is because of the virus. Lets try to swim through this as we can. Lets try to shoulder through this and put this money to work right away. Keep people employed. Those who are unemployed, we are giving them checks from the treasury. Plus 600. 175 Million People will get assistance during this rescue. I cant wait to reopen the economy, just between you and me. Lou 330 million americans are with you on that view. When you talk about the money the government is putting back into this economy, including the federal reserve. Its a Staggering Amount of money in short order. Is it in your judgment anywhere near enough . Thats a hard question to answer. Thats a difficult question. Lou, here is the key point. Its all about the virus. The numbers moved towards reopening the economy. Health and safety must come first. President trump repeats that again and again. The numbers, new case numbers have come almost to the flattening point. Plus 3 daily rate of increase. There was 45 a month ago. That gives me hope in terms of your question. That gives me hope we are entering a transition period. Some states may come in before may 1. But may will be a transition period and that will get us to a reopening. Hopefully that will lead to better economic conditions. Well take brutal data. I cant sugar coat that. Many of those people are furloughed. Many of those people will come back. If we can save as many businesses. We can keep families afloat well do the best we can. But i look forward to the hope maybe its more prayer and a hope but the new case rate not only flattens but starts to hook downwards so we can start opening up the u. S. Economy and come back with a great revival. Lou the president demonstrated what he can do in terms of his leadership in terms of driving this economy to 3 Growth Without short so order. The demands will be even greater this time on the administration and all of us to make sure we have got this thing moving straight ahead. I listened to a number of beautifulo a number ofbillios almost alter capitalism. How in the future well have much, much higher taxes. That may or may not be true. They are waxing philosophical about this. And so many of them calling for great changes in capitalism. Its stunning that they are ignoring what has to be done about china and the export of deadly viruses by china. There you go. Thats a great point. This has nothing to do with capitalism. If we come through this in the next few weeks and reopen as i hope and pray is possible, well show a big rebound. This is about a virus that took off exponentially and nobody believed could happen. The source of that virus is china. And yes they will be held accountable at some point for this. Why do we have to raise taxes. Maybe billionaires are okay with tax hikes. I am not. President trump talked about a payroll tax holiday for middle blue collar income workers. He would like to see proinvestment taxation. We did this once with his tax cuts and regulatory cuts, did we not . And better trade deals . Why cant we ambu late those policies in the next few weeks . Why not an infrastructure bill, why not 100 expensing. Tax incentives for restaurants and ball parks. Why do we have to raise taxes. Lets let people keep their own money. Get them a job and let them keep their own money. The trump formula works. Lower taxes across the board. Blue collar boom a blue collar boom ensued. Better trade deals so we can export more in fairer trade. I dont want higher taxes. I want the country to come roaring back. And my hope is in the next few weeks we can get it open so we can start. Lou with that i will say hallelujah, i couldnt agree more. Excitement is not a bad thing. Thanks so much. Up next. Secretary of state mike pompeo issuing a warning to the World Health Organization. We take that up and much more with dr. Michael pillsbury. House republicans issue offing a memo laying issuing a memo laying out the response to the wuhan virus. It is an understatement to say that i was extremely worried. I was overwhelmed. And i didnt know where to begin. I came across sofi and it was the best decision of my life.

Republicans on the House Oversight committee are fighting back against the radical dimms attacks against President Trump and his response to the wuhan virus. The memo presents a clear timeline of the president s actions and the misinformation from the Chinese Communist party and World Health Organization working together in a Disinformation Campaign against the world. And there is more breaking news. The radical dimms in the house voted to create a new panel to monitor the wuhan virus relief efforts led by President Trump. House Republican Leaders say its another political weapon devised by the radical dimms to try to take down President Trump. The panel will be led by jim clyburn who told House Democrats that the relief bill was a tremendous opportunity to restructure things to fit our vision. The committee will be made up of 7 democrats and 5 republicans who will have seen a power to depose Trump Administration officials, if you can believe that. Jim jordan, Ranking Member of the House Oversight committee and the house judiciary committee. Your reaction to the passage of the 484 billion bill that pelosi seemed intent on delaying in perpetuity at one time. She tried to delay it here. But there is help coming for Small Business owners and families. I wish we didnt have to send this kind of money, but when the economy of is shut down because of this virus, you have to help. This is the latest version of how we are going to help Small Business owners and families until we get our economy up and running. Lou lets turn to this House Committee designed it seems to weaponize whatever power the house has to subvert and even overthrow this president. Here we go again. Thats exactly right. The first version was before the president was even elected when the fbi used the dossier that was completely baloney to spy on the trump campaign. Then it was the ukrainian phone call charade they did, now this select committee to go after the president. We already have 8 different entities doing oversight on the cares act. But the democrats say thats not enough. Thet the 9th they just created is to look after joe biden. Everyone can see sit for what it is. They are going to pass it. We need to make sure the American People get the truth when this committee begins its work. Lou when it begins its efforts top subvert this president , maybe try to overthrow him. The same would be the same with pushing joe biden with the American People with this committee. Mr. Clyburn, our colleague is the biggest supporter in congress. The biggest endorsement that won South Carolina for biden. Thats who nancy pelosi announced as chair of the committee before the cares act even passed. She said well have a select committee and named mr. Clyburn the head of it. They are going to go after the president as they have been doing for four years. Lou is there a strategy, an opportunity for the republicans in the white house and capitol hill to stop this committee and end its nonsense . This is outrageous . No, its going to happen. Lou just by a stroke of the pen in the house . Its going to happen. We just have to call it and describe it for what it is. Its another attack on the president. We can communicate the truth and thats what we have been doing for four years every time the democrats attack. They saw the Mueller Investigation turned up nothing. The impeachment investigation showed there was nothing wrong. The footnotes that have been declassified in the last few weeks showed us that effort was ridiculous. It was based on russian disinformation. They knew they were getting played. Each time they tried it backfires on them. Lets call it for what it is, this is another attempt to go after the president of the United States. Lou another sickening episode led by the party of hate. They have become so outrageous its beyond description. Comey, mueller, our good friends. We are learning more and more about them as a result of the declassification of parts of the fisa examination investigation. Your thoughts about what new we learned and how important is it and how likely it is now that we are actually the American People will have some accountability as a result of their outrageous crimes against everything this country stands for . Bill barr has done an outstanding job. His interview a few days back where he indicated mr. Durham is looking at this. And the problems he sees there. I look forward top in durhams investigation which i think will come this summer. And mr. Horowitz has zon outstanding work. He issues his report and looked at 29 different cases, random sample. 29 cases where the fbi went to the fisa court to spy on american citizens. All 29, the underlying evidence was not there. There were problems with he single one. In four of those 29 cases they couldnt even find the woods file. The standard the fbi set up for itself they werent following. Thats in he sense what his interim report told us. Thats how bad it is. People need to be held accountable specifically for what they tried to do to the president of the United States. Lou we need also i think a very strong report from capitol hill from almost he quarter about the relationship between the party of hate, the deep state, and the national leftwing media. Because their relationship is made possible, this brazen, bald assault on the presidency and the constitution. Do you agree . Yes, the Mainstream Media and the democrat press are one and the same. It started in july of 2016. When the fbi went to the fisa court using the russian disinformation. Used it to get a warrant to spy on the trump campaign. Thats where it started and it never stopped. It manifested in the Mueller Investigation. Then you say the with the crazy ukrainian phone call impeachment. Then the latest effort what happened on the house floor. The select committee, mr. Clyburn, joe bidens biggest supporter will be the chair of his select committee when we have 8 different entities doing oversight. We have the inspector general. In the cares act itself there was a Session Commission for oversight. Nancy pelosi just put miss shalala on that committee. But all thats not good enough. We need a 9th committee chaired by joe bidens biggest supporter going into an election year. The democrats will never stop attacking this president. Lou never. This promises to be the most extraordinary elect year ever. It has all the makings. Up next, mike pompeo issued a warning to the World Health Organization as china tries to exert more power. Michael pulse bury joins us later Michael Pillsbury joins us later. And a vaccine trial moving faster than expected. [ ] lou breaking news from the nations hottest hot spot for the wuhan virus. New york, Governor Andrew Cuomo reporting another decline in deaths over the past 24 hours saying a randomized test found 14 of all new yorkers were infected and have antibodies in their systems. That means 2. 7 Million People in new york have been infected and the death rate appears to be. 5 . These numbers come as a new study found 94 of patient hospitalized in new york city because of the contagion had an underlying disease such as hypertension or obesity. The median age of the patients is 63 years of age. A. Pharmaceutical company says they are moving at an unprecedented speed to develop and vaccines after the chinese made the gerks nome made public in january. Joining us is the dean of the National School of tropical medicine at baylor. Dr. , professor, great to have you with us. Give us a sense, if you will, you worked on vaccines for some time including the sars epidemic on which you were working on a vaccine. How soon do you think its realistic to hope for a vaccine . Thanks so much for having me. Our charge is to develop a vaccine over a year to 18 months which is an aggressive timeline. We have two vaccines we are trying to advance to Clinical Trials. I think you will see a dozen or more vaccines undergoing clinical testing. You might say why do we need so many vaccines. The reason is we dont know which ones will and out. Vaccine development is a high risk business because up to up to 90 fail to show they actually work and are safe. The strategy is to get as many vaccines into the pipeline in the hopes of two or three making it to the finish line. Maybe one will be ours but we dont know for sure. Lou we wish you the best of luck. And everyone work on it, the sooner the bert. The the sooner the better. 1218 months. Your thoughts if thats adequate for the second wave of this wuhan virus. Thats the worry. The director says he anticipates another waive in january. And they are predictive models looking into this number. We havent been through a full year for this virus. This is a new virus agent so this is speculative. But there is so suggestion this could come back in january. In the meantime we are getting up at 4 00 in the morning and working on our vaccine and going to bed late trying to meet the mandate of 1218 months. We have never thrown resources at this problem like we have now. This is why americans have been investing in the National Institutes of health. Now its coming back and all these new technologies remember its not just vaccines, itits its new antibody thr is. The. The u. S. Invests more than any other country. This is the result of that. The new exciting technologies for covid19. Lou the battle against it so far has been fought hard and fought well. Ile also im a little realistic about vaccines. To have a veriologist of your esteem, i have to ask the question. Influenza, they have a checkered performance level. We never know precisely or even closely how well they will perform one year to the next. Does that also concern all of you working on this new vaccine . Yes. Thats a good question. A little bit. Flu is different. It has to undergo a lot of mutations and vary from year to year. With influenza its a carefully orchestrated dance. We have to identify what the strain looks like and make a new virus every year. I think one vac seem will work on it. Lou doctor, we thank you very much. Come back soon. Up next. Michael pillsbury. With coronavirus still spreading, people at higher risk, must take extra precautions. You are at higher risk if you are over 65, or if you have any serious underlying medical conditions, like heart disease, chronic lung disease, diabetes, or if your immune system is compromised for any reason. If youre at higher risk, wash your hands frequently with soap and water for twenty seconds. Avoid touching your face. Disinfect frequently touched objects. And wash up after being in public spaces. And when it comes to social situations. Less is better. Stay six feet or two arm lengths away from other people. Better still, stay home if you can. If youre sick, please stay home and away from others. And if you think youve been exposed to the virus, call your Health Care Provider before going to their office. In challenging times, the choices you make are critical. Please visit coronavirus. Gov for more information. Lou secretary of state mike pompeo says the United States may go further than just a freeze on funding to the World Health Organization. Even more than that it may be the case that the United States can never return to underwriting to have u. S. Taxpayer dollars going to the w. H. O. Lou china donated an additional 30 million to the w. H. O. Bringing their funding to 80 million a year. The United States had contributed 135 million so far this year. China has a long way to go to catch up. Joining us is dr. Michael pillsbury, the director of chinese strategy at the hudson institute. Hes author of the hundredyear marathon. We talked earlier with larry kudlow talking about the number of billionaires in this country, talking about reforming and changing capitalism and the way we live. My question is why in the hell arent they talking about the virus, the deadly con tape june china unleashed on the World Without deadly contagion china unleashed on the world. It seems to me china is very worried about being held accountable for the virus so they have taken a number of steps. The most obvious was yesterday when dr. Shir who used to be touted as the one to know about the viruses. Now she is telling the wall street journal that she has a lot of bat viruses, but not that one. Her lab director went the day before and said nothing happened. China is trying to get out of being held accountable at the same time they go on the counter offensive around the world with their disinformation program. Lou did i just understand im sorry to interrupt you. Did i just hear you save they went on the defense by going on the offense leading a global Disinformation Campaign against the United States . Thats what i said. Lou i cannot that is what i said. I can get you some of the exact quotes they are using worldwide, lou. Lou we have been reporting it here for weeks. This Disinformation Campaign. But my point is, there is a couching here in terms of the chinese. They want to say they are defending themselves when they are the ones who are the aggressors. They are the ones who are the malign actors in this. They killed thousands and thousands of people, and we have got people talking about capitalism for gods sake in the United States. This is a Disinformation Campaign being aided and abetted by billionaires on wall street. Corporate america, and national leftwing media for crying out loud. You saw 25 democrats in the house write President Trump a letter saying please dont cut off any money for the w. H. O. So to some degree the chinese have their supporters inside our political system. They know that, by the way. They brag about it. Lou apparently with some good reason. Today the secretary of state made it very clear where he stands and where the president stands. They are talking about the prospect of that being a permanent defunding of the World Health Organization. Meanwhile we have got chinese ships directly confronting the United States, and this president by putting them in the South China Sea against our warships. Who the hell do they think they are . They moved their Aircraft Carrier down to the area in the South China Sea. President trump warned them saturday not to have bullying tactics towards other countries. In particular, malaysia and vietnam. They are trying to i tim date th theyare trying intimidatee malaysians to stop drilling. Talking. Sinking an american Aircraft Carrier to teach the americans a lesson. Its hardliners in china saying this kind of thing. We dont want to slide into a crisis, unless they want to put biden in the white house. Lou what is your choice . I dont understand. I dont see how you avoid a crisis when you have a nation that without apology has killed hundreds of thousands infected millions of people and is also an aggressor in the South China Sea which is not the chinese province in any way. It is also a critical component of open navigation for world shipping. This is outrageous what we are watching. This aggressive and i think deadly aggressor do despite the United States insisting that we wont put up with it. Well, lou, as you know, the australians just joined us in the South China Sea with one of their warships in the last couple days. We have three ships there now. The chinese are challenging japanese territorial waters at the same time. Lou we may have to interrupt you for the President Task force. Please go ahead. The australians have joined us with their ship. The chinese are also threatening japanese waters. It seems to be a challenge of President Trump at a time when we are distracted the chinese believe by the coronavirus at home. I think its dangerous, lou. Lou its very dangerous. And itsle also very clear its also very clear the chinese, irrespective of the trade relationship the president constructed, they are now moving in military terms and fashion to challenge the United States. There is just no doubt of it. Do you think . Well, we heard President Trump say several times, i think correctly. The chinese want a patsy to replace him so they can have a much bettering deal and easier path towards world domination. They have given some signs of starting to you fourth joe bidens candidacy. Lou this is one of the most extraordinary moments in history. We are watching a president and administration of the u. S. Government that has to thread several needles simultaneously and preserve our National Security and the safety of all americans against the threat of viruses and geopolitical adversaries who seem at least one of them want to be considered outright an enemy. Dr. Michael pillsbury. Thank you. We appreciate it. Up next well be talking with tom fitton of judicial watch. Nope we are not, here is the president of the United States. President trump we expect the house to pass the paycheck protection program. And healthcare enhancement act. Im grateful congress is answering my call to deliver these additional 320 billion in relief for the American Worker and Small Businesses. At a time when Many Americans are enduring significant economic challenges this will help Small Businesses keep millions of workers on the payroll. States are starting to open up now. Its exciting to see. Its you a inspiring. We are coming out of it and coming out of it well. And we are really very happy the governors have been doing a good job working with us. And its really pretty impressive to see. I have spoken to numerous leaders of countries the last 48 hours, and they are saying we are leading the way. We are leading the way. So many different ways. While most are pleased that harvard and stanford and princeton and numerous other universities and colleges also Large Businesses have isnt funds back to us. In some cases i stopped funds that i looked at and we are pleased to report that the funds have either not gone out its about 350 million. And they either have not gone out. Or we renegotiated it and they are not getting them. So its a couple of cases they are sending them back immediately. So i think it was nights. I want to it was very nice. I want to thank harvard. They acted quickly and decisively. They agreed when they heard the facts that they should not be getting it. Princeton, stanford and other institutions. It includes 30 billion to support small lending institutions, helping africanamerican and hispanic american Small Businesses. As we continue our battle against the virus the data and facts on the ground suggest we are making great progress. In 23 states new cases declined. In the peak week 40 of american counties have seen a rapid decline in new cases. 46 states report a drop in patients showing coronaviruslike symptoms. Thats a big number. To keep america gaining momentum he citizen needs to maintain village lens. We understand that maintain vigilance. Good high jeans, practicing social distance and the voluntary use of face covering. Its very exciting but it does not mean that we are letting down on our guard at all in any way. On the contrary continued diligence is an essential part of our strategy to get our country back to work. To take our country back. We are winning this and we are going to win the and well keep watching closely for the invisible enemy. With each passing day we are learning more and more about this enemy. The scientists at dhs have released a report offering a number of insights about how the virus reacts to different temperatures, climates and surfaces. The findings confirm the virus survives better . Cold and dry environments and does less well in warmer and humid environments. Well have somebody up bill will be up in a while on a great report he gave. He will be talking about how the virus reacts in sunlight. Wait until you hear the numbers. You wont believe them. The u. S. Trials of the covid19 have been going on and have been approved in the United States, germany, u. K. And china. Thats big news. And a lot of trials are going on. We have a lot of great Brilliant Minds working on this both from the standpoint of a vaccine and therapeutics. We must be eafl in all con we must be careful in all conditions. But well get this done. We are close to a vaccine. Unfortunately we are not close to testing. When the testing starts, it takes a period of time. But well get it done. I want to thank the head of dhs science and technology, bill brian for what he will be doing and the report hes about to give. I think it will be something that nobody has ever heard of. Brandnew information and important information. My administration continues to leverage the defense production act to increase the manufacturing delivery of critical medical supplies. We finalized three cross to s to produce 39 militar 39 miln masks. And we are going to sterilize the makes which will increase the use. People dont want to use it. They want to immediately get a new one. We are asking them to use the sterilization process. Up to up to 20 times. We airlifted 750 million pieces of personal protective equipment into the United States through our proper air bridge which has been an incredible thing to watch. Its really a military operation. The Vice President is now providing each governor with an exhaustive count by county breakdown of the privately distributed personal protect. This is equipment and things that are incredible. Personal protective equipment. Its incredible, and its all brandnew and at the highest level. We are getting only the highest level. And also we are looking at essential gear within the states and its being delivered to different states quickly and as we speak. The governor should know whats being delivered through a private sector supply chain as well as through the project air bridge. Well try to get it immediately from the plane to the state. When we cant do that we bring to it our facilities and get to the governors. We are getting it fast. Governors can use this information to quickly even sure they get materials where and when they are needed. I want to thank our nations incredible Emergency Management teams that have been working around the clock to serve their communities. Help distribute critical supplies and save countless american lives. We salute these heroic officials on the front lines. The fda began an effort to stand access to plasma dough the wayrd from the blood of recovered patients. ,000 patient are enrolled receiving trans 3,000 patients are enrolled in the proper nationwide. Saying i want to go donate blood. I want to donate whatever it is you want. I want to help people. Really quite incredible. Convalescent plasma will be used to manufacture a concentrated antibody treatment that does not have to be matched with a particular blood type this concentrated antibody treatment could be used as preventative measure to Keep Health Care workers, and other highrisk populations from contracting the virus in first place, a very big deal. Clinical trials of these products are slated to begin within weeks and maybe we could have a fairly quick solution. I urge americans to get in there and keep doing what youre doing because again we want those people recovering or recovered from coronavirus to contact their local blood and Plasma Donation Center to learn how they can help. They have been so great and i just appreciate it. My administration also partnered with the leading, and weve been really establishing some great partnerships with leading Technology Companies and scientific journals to create a database of 52,000 scholarly articles on the virus that can be analyzed by artificial intelligence. Top a. I. Experts are using the wealth of date to gain insights to potential therapies and were collaborating with tech firms, universities and our National Labs to harness american supercomputers in the search for treatments and vaccines. That search is going on and it is being, i think you will see in the future, you will see it is very successful. Ultimately till was tremendous success. Great progress is being made at a rapid pace, a pace like no other. We have ever hope with the american might and science an technology and with the courage an devotion of the American People who have been so incredible well end this plague and together we will restore the full measure of american strength and power and prosperity. Our country is going to do fantastically well. You see what is going on. There is pentup demand in our country to get it back white where it was, make even better around thats whats going to happen. I with that i would like to ask mike pence to come up, Vice President , to say a few words. Thank you, mr. President and good afternoon.
