Bring home to the administration the consequences of how terrible our response has been to the epidemic so far. Again, we do think there will be protests under this National Funeral day of mourning rubric all over the country tomorrow, but that one in washington were expecting to be a large funeral procession that is apparently going to proceed from the home of the Washington Home of the leader of the senate, senator mitch mcconnell, to the white house. And clergy are expected to speak in memoriam for the dead. Relatives of those killed by the coronavirus are expected to lay out body bags outside the white house grounds tomorrow. We know of planned similar protests tomorrow not just in washington, also at the president s golf course in bedminster, new jersey. Also at the Federal Building in little rock, arkansas. Also in columbia, south carolina. We know of planned protests in georgia, michigan, new hampshire, illinois, all over. Thats something to watch for tomorrow afternoon. The Uni
Trumps second trip in as much of a week to an electoral battleground state. Also, nbc news capitol hill correspondent and host of ka e kasie d. C. Sunday nights, kasie hunt. Shell update us on Congress Progress over another aid bill. Also, Jeffrey Goldberg is here with his analysis and new piece for the atlantic, that the conspiracy theorists are winning. Thats frightening. First, President Trump yesterday criticized dr. Anthony faucis remarks that he made to a senate committee. That reopening the economy too soon would cost lives and set back the economic recovery. Heres what dr. Fauci said on tuesday, followed by the president yesterday. There is a real risk that you will trigger an outbreak that you may not be able to control, which, in fact, paradoxically, will 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. It would almost turn the clock back rather than Going Forward. Dr.
York times. The other is from a Public University of washington model often cited by the white house. First, the government projections show the daily death toll there nearly double, from about 1,750 deaths currently to about 3,000 a day on june 1st. This is pretty dramatically different than where people were thinking. New cases are projected to go from about 25,000 a day to 200,000. The president was asked about the report in an interview with the New York Post. He said, quote, i know nothing about it. I dont know anything about it. Nobody told me that. I think its false. I think its fake news. The white house put out the following statement. This is not a white house document nor has it been presented to the Coronavirus Task force or gone through interagency vetting. This data is not reflective of any modeling, any of the modeling done by the task force or data that the task force has analyzed.

Ambassador about lifting u. S. Sanctions. President trump and republicans calling it proof the Obama Administration sought to undermine him from the very beginning. President trump this was all obama, this was all biden. These people were corrupt, this whole thing was corrupt and we caught them. General flynn was just the tip of the iceberg, it appears to me what they were doing is a lot of them went wild after trump won. They got poisoned with this russia hoax. This inner circle of advisors were all listening to senior advisors and private phone conversation and this would amount to a serious abuse of power. This is an outrage if at least unethical, and we will get to the bottom of it. They had no business listening to anything that general flynn was saying about term policy. Ed fox team coverage, trey gowdy here to react. John roberts is live on the north lawn, good morning. There were things that we know and things we dont know about this whole situation.

United states and around the world. This is early start. Im christine romans. Im laura jarrett. Its friday, june 26th. 5 a. M. In new york. This morning a bleak new recordsetting but the fight against coronavirus back. Almost 40,000 new cases reported in the u. S. Today more than doubling where we were earlier this month and eclipsing, eclipsing the previous record from april 24th. 124,000 americans are now dead. The whole objective was to flatten the curve yet the u. S. Did the opposite. Several states hitting new alltime highs, many of them reopening early when patience was running out, but the virus remained a persistent big threat. Every epidemiologist was yelling as loud as we could three weeks after memorial day we have a peak and five weeks we begin to see a peak in tests. This is a consequence of our actions and a consequence of not having guidance from the federal government and the states to follow. 11 states, most notably texas, are hitting pause on reopening now.
