COLUMBIA, S.C. South Carolina Rep. James Clyburn says he s taken the COVID-19 vaccine, and he s provided the evidence to prove it.
His office released a video Friday afternoon showing the 80-year-old Congressman rolling up his sleeve and getting the injection of the Pfizer vaccine. At the direction of the Office of the Attending Physician, I just received my first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, he said along with a Tweet. It is my hope that every American over the age of 16 will get vaccinated as soon as they are able so that we may save lives and ultimately defeat this virus.
Pompeo explains why it s wiser for Trump to keep quiet about suspected Russia hack
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said Friday night during an appearance on the
Mark Levin Show that we can say pretty clearly that it was the Russians that engaged in a recently discovered cyberattack that breached dozens of federal agencies and companies. He added that while we re still unpacking precisely what happened, this was a very significant effort, marking a slight change in tone for the secretary who had previously suggested the hack may not have been out of the ordinary.
The New York Times notes that Pompeo is the first member of the Trump administration to suggest the Kremlin was behind the attack, even after intelligence agencies have told Congress they suspect Russia s own elite intelligence agency, the S.V.R, was behind it. Russia has denied involvement.
