As you know, were committed to bringing you the news throughout this crisis, and that, of course, is where we begin. With an allout effort by President Trump to rewrite the administrations response to the coronavirus outbreak. At his longest White House Briefing so far, this thing was over two hours. He showed a campaignstyle video highlighting what he says are his accomplishments. Millions of americans are feeling the pain of the pandemic. More than 1,000 died yesterday bringing the total to 23,000. Since the crisis began, at least 17 million americans have applied for unemployment benefits. Paula reid questioned the president at yesterdays briefing. She joins us now from the white house. Good morning, paula. Good morning, anthony. Yesterdays briefing began with the president insisting that dr. Anthony faucis job is not in jeopardy despite retweeting calls for him to be fired just hours earlier. Fauci was then called to the podium where he recanted statements made over the weekend that appeared to criticize the administrations response to coronavirus. With that out of the way, the lights in the room were dimmed and a video was played criticizing the media and praising the president s response. Everything we did was right. Reporter President Trump was adamant that neither he nor his administration did anything wrong in their response to the coronavirus pandemic. He lashed out at what he called unfair reporting. And i dont mind being criticized. But not when theyre wrong. Reporter the president played this more than threeminute campaignstyle video produced by white house staff. It shows a timeline suggesting his response to the virus was ahead of the curve. But the video also includes a monthlong gap in the administrations response jumping from february 6th when the cdc first shipped test kits to march 2nd when Companies Began testing a vaccine. The argument is that you bought yourself some time and you didnt prepare hospitals, you didnt use it to ramp up testing. Youre so disgraceful. Its so disgraceful the way you say that.

Looks like by april, you know in theory, when it gets a little warmer it miraculously goes away.

When somebody is the president of the United States, the authority is total. Reporter the president also insisted that he has the authority to lift stayathome orders issued by states. Has any governor agreed that you have the authority to decide when their state i havent asked anybody because, you know why, because i dont have to. Who told you the president has the total authority . Enough. Reporter new York Governor Andrew Cuomo pushed back on the president saying the constitution says we do not have a king.

Tony . Just harrowing pictures down there, jessi. Thank you very much. Lets get a check of camp pain 2020. Nearly a week after dropping out of the president ial race, senator Bernie Sanders endorsed former Vice President joe biden. The two men appeared on a live stream yesterday. No handshake, no rally. Sanders pledged to help biden defeat President Trump in november. The Political Correspondent ed okeefe joins us from washington. Good morning. This is unity pretty early for the democrats. What does it mean for the Democratic Party Going Forward . It sure is, tony. A big step toward party unity. Sanders endorsement comes three months earlier than the one he gave Hillary Clinton four years ago and gives biden about 200 days to take on President Trump. Listen here to some of what sanders and biden had to say. I am asking all americans, im asking every democrat, im asking every independent. Im asking a lot of republicans to come together in this campaign to support your candidacy which i endorse. Im going to need you. Not just to win the campaign, but to govern. Biden and sanders say they are forming task forces to discuss issues like health care, immigration and climate change. The former Vice President , of course, still faces a lot of skepticism from younger liberal voters who are wary of the democratic establishment and his career. So the senators endorsement is designed to bring his fiercely loyal supporters under the biden umbrella. The former Vice President last night easily won the wisconsin primary as expected. You know, ed, under normal circumstances, that would have been the lead story today but things have not been normal for quite some time. Thats why its so important to be reminded there is a very important president ial Campaign Going on, 2020. I think sometimes we lose sight of that. Lets not do that. I appreciate you pointing that out. Yes. Would you call that yesterday, would you call that a fullthroated endorsement what we heard . Absolutely. They are confined to doing what you and i do. Sitting here in our own homes and talking to each other. That may be what campaign 2020 looks like between now and november. Well see. But absolutely designed to be an explicit endorsement and remove any doubt that sanders is now backing his friend joe biden. All right. Party unity as tony said coming early. And now we have conventions coming up, too. We shall see. Thank you, ed okeefe. Really good to see you.

The president claims total authority over reopening the country. We talk to new York Governor Andrew Cuomo. Rita wilson speaks for the first time about surviving the coronavirus with her husband, you know him, tom hanks. Live from his nest, big bird has a message for kids during this tough time. Ed knows lots of stuff but first, heres todays eye opener at 8 00. An allout effort by President Trump to rewrite the administrations response to the coronavirus outbreak. The lights were dimmed and a video was played, criticizing the media and praising the president s response. The governor said that coronavirus has not overwhelmed the Hospital Systems but ill tell you, 2,000 people are still entering the hospitals here in new york state every day with coronavirus symptoms. The storm blew through, you can see the destruction. Cars are mangled in the trees back there and across the street, the rest of the house blown away. To put this into perspective, sanders endorsement comes three months earlier than the one he gave Hillary Clinton four years ago and gives biden about 200 days now to take on President Trump. Sanders said that while he and biden have real differences, he will do everything he can to help joe win the election. Im asking every democrat, im asking every independent, im asking a lot of republicans to come together in this campaign to support your candidacy to endorse. All right, thank you very much. This mornings eye opener is presented by toyota. Welcome back to cbs this morning. We are following guidelines to stay home as much as possible, and we certainly hope you are doing that, too. Listen, guys, i havent left the house in over ten days. I dont know about you, im not complaining, because im delighted to be here, but sometimes its a little overwhelming. Whens the last time either of you have left the house . I got to take the trash out on sunday, and it was a very exciting moment for me. I spent a couple hours picking out my outfit, getting the jacket on, gloves, did they match the jacket and finally made it to the curb and it was thrilling, i got to tell you. Ha, ha. You did so well. Im going to go out and get yep. I was going to say im like that grandmarx ive got hav grandma, i have to go out and get beer every week, gayle. Maybe coors will deliver. Truly have no complaints, coors will definitely deliver. And we begin of course with the coronavirus pandemic. Its the thing we are all talking about 24 7 and now back to the numbers, and theyre not good. Americans have now died of the coronavirus in all 50 states, after wyoming reported its first death yesterday. Officials say that the victim was an older man who had underlying conditions who had been hospitalized before he died late last week. As of this morning, there are more than 23,000 reported deaths in this country, and thats more than double where we were just last week, anthony. At the white house, President Trump made this stunning claim that only he has the power to reopen the country, not individual state governors. When somebodys the president of the United States, the authority is total, and thats the way its got to be. Total . Total. Its total. And the governors know that. You have a couple of bands of democrat governors, but they will agree to it. They will agree to it. The president s remarks come as new york governor democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo teams up with other eastern governors to coordinate the reopening of the region and its economy. The Group Includes new york, new jersey, pennsylvania, connecticut, massachusetts, delaware and rhode island, and the governor of new york, andrew cuomo joins us from albany. Governor, good morning. Good to be with you. Good morning. So we just heard President Trump say that its his call when States Reopen but we know, in fact, this falls to governors. Lets talk about what youre doing with this coalition. I know youre not going into it blind. Talk to us if you could about the benchmarks that new york state and yourself have to see met before we all go back to work and get on with our lives. My pleasure. First, as you alluded to, the president s position is just absurd. Its not the law. Its not the constitution. We dont have a king. We have a president. And entering this reopening phase, if you will, is very, very important. Weve never been here before. No one has gone through this. We need a Public Health strategy, and an economic strategy. They have to Work Together, and we have to take one step at a time. Weve said we want to do it as a region, because thats how this virus acts, frankly. It doesnt stop at a state border, and to come back from this, we should do it regionally and share information. Nobody knows everything here. So work with new jersey. Work with connecticut. Work with massachusetts, delaware, rhode island. Lets put the best minds around the table, come up with a regional strategy and as we start to move forward and reopen the economy gradually, have more testing so we can see where were going, and then watch that meter, that measures the number of virus infections spread. Every day, you tell me the behavior of people today, i will tell you the hospitalization rate in two days. And governor, i appreciate that this is uncharted territory, thats absolutely correct. You went over some of the benchmark there is. From a timing perspective im sure even in your own budget prongs s projections, you have to have an idea when new york state might be back to Something Like normal. Talk to us when this reopening could happen. Do you personally plan on going to a mets game this summer . I know youre a fan. First, on sports, i would like to start watching sports. You know, whether or not we sit in the stadium with thousands of others, i dont know that that is in the shortterm foreseeable future, but i dont know why we cant be watching it on television. Why cant you have sports games with no audiences, and just to start the sports and the entertainment, so people have something o watch and follow. But youre talking months of reentry. Youre talking of phased reentry. There is no clear benchmark that you can set. Obviously everybody wants to do it tomorrow, asap, but as you have to calibrate it by watching the spread of the virus, so start opening the valve of people coming back out and economic activity, but while youre opening the valve, watch the numbers every day of the spread of the virus. Youve seen countries reopen too aggressively. The virus came back. They had to close again. We dont want to make that mistake. Yeah, youre very big on watching the valve. But governor, i have to say, when i saw your News Conference yesterday with fellow governors my first thought was rutroh, the white house is not going to like this. Did you give them the heads up that you all were planning that . We were, governors who were part of it had the conversation with the white house. Its not partpartisan, gayle. The state of massachusetts is part of it, thats a republican governor. This is just common sense. Its just common sense. And its not no, i never thought that it was partisan, i never thought that, but i just thought the white house has made it clear who he believes is the leader. Youre saying we dont have a king here. Do you have to work with the white house in terms of how youre going to reopen . Because he seems to believe that you do. Yes, gayle, first, this is a total reversal of the president s first position, right. He has total authority to open up the economy. Then why didnt he have authority to close the economy . Why did he leave it to the states and to the governors to close it down . Why did he take the position that well its up to the states to buy medical equipment, et cetera. Its not my responsibility. Its all the states. This is a total 180. All of a sudden, hes in charge of reopening . By the way, if he wants to do more on the reopening, god bless. I mean, nobody this is a daunting task for anyone. You want to figure out how to do widespread testing, which the federal government should, do it. But it has to be cooperative, and it has to be mutual, and i understand this is a hyper partisan environment and the president is running for reelection. I dont care. I am going to work with the federal government, whoever it is, hand in hand, because thats in the best interests of the people of my state, and nobody can do this alone, because nobodys done it before. Governor, as we consider the variables necessary to reopen the economy here in new york, i think its worth looking back at the conditions that led to the closure in the first place. On march 2nd, you were on this program and you urged calm. There was one case at the time, and zero fatalities. By the end of the month there were a thousand, 60,000 cases and a thousand fatalities, but the closure of essential businesses didnt come until the 22nd of march, quite late in the scheme of things. Looking back, do you wish you had closed things down sooner . Do you have regrets and would that have lowered the death toll . Yes, i think its the exact opposite factually. I dont think youll find another state that moved faster than new york. Just look at the dates you did, from march 1st to lets call it march 20th, we went from basically one or two cases to total closure in like 19 days. Think about that. You close total closure in 19 days, schools closed, businesses closed, only essential workers. That nobody moved that fast, and in that process but governor the question we communicated with the people of new york. Go ahead. I was going to say, the question is not whether you moved swiftly, just in your mind, i know this weighs heavily on your conscience, do you wish in retrospect with hindsight being 20 20 that you had closed things down sooner . Former cdc director tom frieden said 80 reduction in fatalities if the closure had come a week or two earlier. Im asking you for a bit of reflection. Yes, first of all who knows if hes right or hes wrong, right . Monday morning quarterbacking is a little premature especially when the game is still being played but i think does everybody, if you could replay the tape, yeah, i want to know where we were in december as a nation, where were we in january as a nation . Where were we when we saw these cases in china developing, didnt we think somebody would get on a plane in china and bring it here . Thats january, thats february. Thats march. Thats this nation, thats this white house, thats every state. So yeah, if you could replay the tape, everybody would do it differently, every Public Health expert, every editorial board, every media outlet, every Government Official would do it differently, but no state moved faster than new york factually. All right, governor cuomo, thank you very much. We look forward to continuing to cover these next moves as the state of new york and the region considers reopening for business. Governor, thank you very much. Thanks. What does it mean to be a Good Neighbor . It means being there for each other. Thats why state farm is announcing the Good Neighbor Relief Program we know our customers are driving less, which means fewer accidents. So state farm is returning 2 billion dollars to auto policyholders for the period ending may 31st. And well continue making real time decisions to best serve you our customers.

Former secretary of state Madeleine Albright says countries must Work Together in order to stop the coronavirus. First woman to lead the state Department Says working separately will only do more damage. In her new book, hell and other destinations she writes about her whirlwind career and why retirement has never been an option. She joins from us her home in washington, d. C. Madam secretary, thanks for being with us. Great to be with you. Thank you. You wrote in an oped piece in Time Magazine that the world needs a coordinated decisive response to the virus. But were having trouble getting states to they are competing just to buy medical supplies with each other. How do we create a global coordinated response to this . Well, i think its absolutely essential because the virus knows no boundaries, and its not easy. I think that as i write in my book i talk a little bit about world war ii and what happened afterwards and i think we need to figure out a way to strengthen our international system. I know there are people who dont like the word globalization. Its not a four letter word. I think what we need to do is figure out how we can help each other because as i said the virus doesnt know borders. And ive talked about the fact that people and institutions in the 70s need a little refurbishing and the u. N. Is at its 75th anniversary and we need to be supportive of it and get our act together. What i find interesting is that theres stories today actually about the International Monetary fund and the world bank talking about how they can be helpful in other countries because that is the place that is now in many ways under the most threat because they dont have the systems to deal with this. And so i think we have to work with each other and not see things as zero sum games. You write in the book that still almost every day you imagine yourself in your successors shoes as head of the state department. If you were mike pompeo today, what would you be doing . Well, i would remember that the main job of the secretary of state is diplomacy. That diplomacy requires you to put yourself into the other countrys shoes and the other peoples shoes, and try to find some kind of compromise solutions. I am hoping very much that were not quite clear how much he is traveling or what hes doing, but i do think that is the main job of secretary of state. And then i have to say im deeply troubled by the kind of things ive been hearing that have been going on in the state department because you cant do diplomacy without diplomats, and the people in the department, i found to be very smart, very dedicated, and im very troubled that were not really keeping a lot of them and defending them, frankly. So thats what i would be doing. Do you think theres any Security Risk to reopening the country before we really get a handle on the crisis . Well, i do think that from everything that ive seen is clearly the sheltering and the lack of contact, social distancing in the United States has made a difference. And i think that we shouldnt really be overly eager to open up again until we know or are clear about what the whole testing issue is and how we are working together and i do know that there are arguments going on at the moment about who is really in charge. You really need, especially when you have a variety of issues on Health Programs and on helping small businesses, the central government, our government does have a role. Theres no question about it. But i think we need to also understand those that are closer to the people, the governors and the mayors and to really coordinate. I have several mottos. I mean i believe in resiliency. I believe in optimism. I believe in working together. And thats what we have to be doing as we move forward. All right, madam secretary, thank you so much for being with us. Hell and other destinations is on sale today and well be right back on cbs this morning. Good morning. Im gianna franco. Its 8 25. If youre hitting the roadways this morning, a heads up.

And were all coming to you from our respective homes so were going share our story from our respective homes. We each get to share something we like. Tony youre up first. So at 39 i am an elder millennial just barely in the generation, some would say, im out of the generation. I want to talk a little bit about what millennials in particular are facing right now with this pandemic and the economic fallout. I mean some people are calling them the new lost generation because of the economic downturn that they are face right at this moment. Theres a new report that looks the at the staggering Financial Impact of the coronavirus on this generation in particular, the millennial generation. Found 52 of people under the age of 45 have lost a job, been put on leave or have their hours reduced because of the pandemic. Thats compared to 26 of people 45 and over. Report is by data for progress a think tank that helps support progressive causes. The fact remain and stand on their own. This is a generation that is facing their second once in a lifetime economic downturn in just a matter of ten years. There was the aggravate recession which hammered millennials and now massive layoffs in their age group with the pandemic, economic fallout and the question arises, how are they ever going to achieve that American Dream we all think of which is earning at least the livelihood that your parents earned and your grandparents and hopefully more so your kids can do better. All of that is in jeopardy so thinking about that this morning. Guys. Yes. Seniority a factor in them being more vulnerable particularly at this moment. Ive got a story that i really love. Its about an alabama man who had a Sweet Surprise for his daughter after her High School Prom was cancelled because of the coronavirus pandemic. He left a note for her on the staircase that read today is prom. One dance with dad . Will you go with me . That morning she put on her white he is quinn dance and shared an emotional fatherdaughter dance. She said it is something she will never forget. We talked about this a lot. So many people sent home from school because of the virus they are missing graduations, missing programs, you know, they are missing their last senior game in whatever sport they played. Its a big loss. Anything a family can do make it up for their kids is significant and thats why i was touched by what that dad did. Gayle . Me too. Because it is one of those live time life milestones. Thats why what a great dad she has that he would point that out. I love that story. My talk of the table is about rita wilson who you all know is married to tom thanks. I say that tom hanks is a lucky guy. They were one of the first two celebrities to disclose they had the coronavirus. Over the weekend we saw tom thanks return to tv after his recovery. He guest hosted saturday night live from the kitchen. Said we all need to laugh at this time. Hes right. In our first interview since her diagnosis rita told us, we talked to her yesterday that shes feeling great and giving back. Shes teaming up with naughty by nature to remix their hit song, hiphop hooray. Proceeds will help musicians affected by the pandemic. Wilson told bus the story behind the mix. Her journey to recovery. And her symptoms when she first got sick. I was very tired. I felt extremely achy. Uncomfortable. Didnt want to be touched. And then the fingers started. Chills like i never had before. Looking back i realized i was losing my sense of taste and smell which i didnt realize at the time. How high was your fever . I think it got close to 102 by day nine. They gave me chloroquine. I know people have been talking about this drug. I can only tell you that i dont know if the drug worked or it was just time for the fever to break. My fever did break but the chloroquine had such extreme side effects. I was completely nauseous and i had vertigo. I could not walk. My muscles felt very weak. I think people have to be very considerate of that drug. We dont know if its helpful. Did tom have similar symptoms to you . Were your symptoms different . He had milder symptoms. He didnt have as high a fever, he didnt lose his sense of taste or smell but still took us the same time to get through it. Do you think you gave it to him or he gave it to you or do you know how either of you got it . It was somebody they said that tom and i were both exposed to at the same time. We dont know when that could have been or where but all i can say is all of our close contacts, family, our work team no, one has tested positive. Have the doctors told you that now that you all have it that youre now immune from it. Do you know . They told us and thats what the belief is. Recently we have been part of a study where we donated our blood and were waiting to hear back if our antibodies will be helpful in developing a vaccine and also if were able to donate plasma that can be used as donation to other people who are suffering from the virus because we are better. When you came out online with naughty by nature while you were still in recovery that went viral just like that. This the hiphop. I give props to hiphop. I love that song hiphop parade by the amazing rap legends, naughty by nature. Theres a story behind it. I did this movie called boy genius. This oligarch i play this son get to sing took one month to learn. Its like learning a foreign language. Then i just was sitting there in quarantine and i thought oh, maybe i should do this for a brain exercise and see if i still remember the lyrics. I thought maybe if i just post this could it be something fun and show people that were okay and i think that made me feel really good is that naughty by nature had comment on it and said that they liked it and then this idea came up that we should do a remix of it. Any time you stream it, that translates in to money and all of that money will go into music covid19 relief fun. This is what i want information know about you rita wilson because im not late to the rita wilson party. I got all four of your albums. Rita has a catch in her voice that reflects yearning. About seven years ago i started writing music and i realized that i found this thing that i loved that felt like the truist part of myself. This is the thing, rita, hiphop hooray your version went viral for a couple of reasons. One you. Two you had such attitude when you were doing it. Where did that come from, rita wilson . Thats what i thought was so great about it. A whole different audience is seeing he me now for the first time. I think music is healing. So if something is giving someone comfort or peace, im that you fe thankful to be a part of it really. That rita wilson, i have to tell you. Not only is she one of the nicest human beings shes very talented. I asked her did she and tom have second thoughts about going public when they were first diagnosed because really everybody in the country gasped when we heard rita wilson and tom hanks has coronavirus. She said everyone has to have their own comfort level. Shes been very candid about breast cancer. Hes talked about his type 2 diabetes. They thought if it would help bring awareness they were glad to do that. Kudos to both of them for sharing that information. I think a lot of people paid attention for the first time. She and tom feel completely normal now. Note yourself. When your stuff is in the background, clean off your kitchen counters. But thank you so much to rita wilson for sitting down with us. Gayle, i didnt notice the counters. I have to go back and watch it on replay. Youre right about rita wilson. Dont. I will. A great source of comfort to see her and tom recover. Its just a beautiful thing. We wish her the best for a continued recovery.
