Reaper in the foreground and people dropping body bags on the front steps of the capitol at his feet. The body bags are stamped county coroner. Again, this is tallahassee. Florida State Capitol building this morning. Weve seen similar protests like this outside the president s hotel in downtown washington, d. C. But at the florida State Capitol today, i think this happened i think weve also got shots of the signs that they held as well after they dropped the body bags on the steps. You can see them there. There you go. One of these signs was actually echoed at the trump hotel body bag protest, trump lies, people die. You can see a corpse is not a customer. Mourning in america. Also one of the signs there, we are better than this. Florida has more than 41,000 cases of coronavirus now, over 1,700 people in florida dead. Theres also similar scene today outside the Governors Mansion in austin, texas. People dumping body bags outside that building today too in texas, People Holding signs sh
Because dr. Fauci, during Senate Testimony yesterday, chose to acknowledge the realities that hes got four decades of experience facing when it comes to viruses and public health. Now, here is some of what dr. Fauci said yesterday about schools and businesses reopening too soon. My concern that if some areas, cities, states, or what have you, jump over those various checkpoints, and prematurely open up, without having the capability of being able to respond effectively and efficiently, my concern is that we will start to see little spikes that might turn into outbreaks. Dr. Fauci went on to talk about schools reopening some places as being a bridge too far to expect a vaccine or widely available treatment for covid19 by the time that students return to the fall. That was the bridge too far. Though, he expects optimism, a vaccine would be developed in the next year or two. He also told senators he did not have a confrontational relationship with the president. Well, heres the president
Luckily in this hour with his interpretation, because who cares what i think when you can hear neal . Exactly. I cant let you think, lawrence. I want to hear you talk to neal about it. Thank you, rachel. Thanks, lawrence. As we said, Donald Trumps tax returns had their big day in the United States Supreme Court today. Two different cases. The first case that the court listened to, heard the arguments on was the battle over this, a subpoena issued by the house of representatives to the Accounting Firm that has possession of Donald Trumps tax records and the second was a legal battle over a criminal subpoena issued by the Manhattan District Attorney in a criminal investigation that seeks Donald Trumps personal and business tax returns. As i listened to those arguments today, it sounded to me like at least one of those cases is going to be successful in obtaining the trump tax returns. But as i said, you know, why listen to me about it when you can listen to neal katyal, who has argued ma
Unconstitutional. Now, this is the first time that a state Supreme Court has thrown out a state stayathome order in its entirety. And this has huge implications for the state of wisconsin, and potentially for other states as well. Michigans republican legislature, for instance, is also suing its states democratic governor over her stayathome order. We have more on the story coming up in just a minute. Including a live interview with wisconsins governor. But theres a lot to get to tonight. Stocks fell today. A lot. The Dow Jones Industrial average sank more than 500 points, after Donald Trumps handpicked Federal Reserve chairman, jerome powell, said the economy could suffer longterm damage if congress did not step in with more financial support. House democrats did unveil a giant relief package yesterday but President Trump and Senate Republican leader Mitch Mcconnell have said they are in no rush to work on new legislation. Congress has been having some hearings this week, although the
Researchers predicted just two weeks ago. The higher number attributed in part to states relaxing restrictions and increased mobility across the country. This as dr. Anthony fauci warns the country risks even more suffering if states rush to reopen before they have certain guidelines in place. I feel if that occurs, there is a real risk that you will trigger an outbreak that you may not be able to control. Which, in fact, paradoxically, set you back not only leading to some suffering and death that could be avoided, but could even set you back on the road to trying to get economic recovery. Fauci not mincing words during todays Senate Hearing on the current state of americas response to the coronavirus. Fauci was joined by some of the nations top medical experts, including the doctor of the cdc, robert redfield, who gave this warning. Its important to emphasize that were not out of the woods yet.
