Speak to the World Health Organizations role in severely mismanaging and covering up the spread of the coronavirus, Everybody Knows whats going on there. The american taxpayers provide between 400,000,500,000,000 per year to the w. H. O. In contrast china contributes roughly 40 million per year and even less of the organizations leading sponsor. The United States has a duty to insist on full accountability. Sandra the president also unveiling his new economic council. Mark cuban is also on the president s new counsel and he will be joining us live in just a moment. But first, live Fox Team Coverage from new york city on the white house this morning. We begin with john roberts on the north lawn. Sandra, good morning to you. The United States would be suspending funding to the World Health Organization for a period of some 6090 days. The president saying the United States would undertake an investigation into what he calls investmenthe mismanagement and p of the w. H. O. s investigation of what was that an outbreak in wuhan, china, one that became this global coronavirus pandem pandemic. Heres what the president said. President trump look at the rest of the world and other parts of europe. Other nations and regions who followed w. H. O. Guidelines and kept their boards open to china, accelerated the pandemic all around the world. Many countries said it, we are going to listen to w. H. O. And they have problems, the likes of which they cannot believe. Of the move invited criticism from the House Oversight committee. While we may agree that the w. H. O. Has shortcomings that must be corrected to your attack, global Health Organization can easily be seen as a deliberate but transparent effort to deflect responsibility for your own failures onto others. Meanwhile your attempt to blame the w. H. O. For trusting china reflects an astonishing level of hypocrisy given your own fawning and widely publicized praise of president xi jinping. At the same time the president suspends funding to the w. H. O. , a new report out from the Associated Press finding that for a critical period of six days, china did not warn of an emerging epidemic, allowing people together in larger groups in the wuhan area and travel far and wide for the Lunar New Year. In the six days of public silence, the ap says more than 3,000 people were infected. Fox news has also learned that diplomatic cables from the u. S. And china warned the administration there was a safety problem at a major virology lab in wuhan two years before this outbreak. That lab was conducting research on coronavirus and bats. U. S. Officials have not ruled out the possibility that the pandemic of originated from that lab. No surprise to you that was taken a keen interest in that lab and i would say at this point its inconclusive although the weight of evidence seems to indicate natural. But we dont know for certain. As for President Trump he will spend today talking with people in business, banking, retail, sports, construction and more gathering information on where, when and how parts of the country can reopen. The president reading off a long list of experts who will serve as sort of an Advisory Board to get the country back to work. His calling it the great economic revival industry group. He will have mark cuban on in just a few minutes. There are reports of the Treasury Department is going to put President Trumps signature on those Economic Impact payment paper checks are simply inaccurate. The Treasury Department says that there will be no delay in getting those checks out. They will go out beginning next week as scheduled and it should also be pointed out that only to a certain degree while people to be getting those paper checks because a lot of those payments will be made via direct deposit. Sandra . Sandra some already starting to do so. John roberts. Ed new yorks death toll rising to nearly 11,000 after new york city officials we calculated figures to include probable victims who were never tested. Governor andrew cuomo says the worst is over for the state as the number of hospitalizations remain stable. Dr. Anthony fauci echoing that sentiment in a new interview this morning. Given what we are doing, the worst looks like for the most part with a couple of exceptions, there are still a couple of cities, right now, savannah, that we are worried has not yet peaked and turned around. But if we look at the metropolitan area as kind of the prototype thats been driving us to the country and then look at the country as a whole, there is no doubt that what weve seen over the last several days is a flattening out, and even when you get to new york its actually starting to come down. Ed coming down right here in new york which is where we find it david lee miller. Good morning. Good morning, ada. The impact of the coronavirus on new york city appears now to be much more devastating than had been previously realized. The City Health Department which calculates confirmed deaths from the virus is releasing presumed death as well. The numbers are staggering. In addition to 6,589 lives lost another 3,778 are thought to have died from the disease. The majority of presumed deaths took place in hospitals. Moments ago bill de blasio explained the reasoning behind the deadly calculation. We just wanted this larger truth to come out even though its not 100 confirmed. I want to be clear about that, it is probable and its important to say that. New york city will meanwhile become more selfreliant. The city will increase production of personal Protection Equipment making more than 1,000 face masks and 1,000 surgical gowns per week. Buses and trains have continued to operate here but the virus has claimed the lives of of transit workers. The head of the Transit Authority calls Frontline Workers heroic. Starting today the general public for the first time can take a coronavirus test easing saliva. The test developed by Rutgers University is available to local residents at a drivethrough facility and plans are being discussed at the white house to extend the test across the country. And as we have said it, time over, new york city is the epicenter of the virus. Thousands here have lost their lives. One of them who has not died, dead at mendez. Shes 33 years old and she spent three weeks in mount sinai hospital. Ten days on a ventilator and she is now recovering at her home. Her recovery is inspirational to the city and to the country at a time when people desperately need to believe that anything is possible. Ed we need more and more of those stories. David lee miller, thank you. Sandra a nice story to start off with. Meanwhile President Trump revealing the names on his new counsel tasked with researching when and how to reopen the u. S. Economy. Our next guest is a member of that council. Mark cubans entrepreneur and owner of the dallas mavericks. Mark, thank you for being here. Thanks for having me. A sandra the president has set this the biggest decision he ever has had to make. What is your recommendation on reopening the economy to make i dont have one yet, obviously i want to get as much information as possible before i offer any advice at all. This is such a moving target and i think the biggest mistake we could make is rushed to a decision but i will help him in any way he can. Sandra is may 1st 2 soon . I really dont know. We are getting more data every day. We are learning about medical therapies and opportunities for vaccines and the more time we can buy is opportunity for the right decision. Part of what i want to contribute is the fact that businesses really dont know exactly what to expect on the other side. It is so much uncertainty that, by talking to everyone in each of the groups i think the president could get a lot of great feedback on how businesses are approaching it. Because as much as safety is critical we also have to see how businesses want to move forward. I dont think its going to look like it did the day before. I think it will be a new abnormal and so getting the feedback from the Industry Council will be very valuable and i think was a smart move. Sandra thats interesting perspective. New look at some of the names including yourself on that new advisory council, jeff bezos, tim cook, condoleezza rice, more than 50 Business Leaders from so many different walks. How will all of those people come together to advise the president on this enormous decision . We will find out more about that today but obviously theres a lot of brainpower power. They havent put together a Small Business group yet and i volunteered to do that as well. I think they were smart and how they approach this by bringing in the best of the best and hopefully we will come up with some alternative approaches to taking the steps to get the economy open. Like i said before, just getting feedback from everybody and getting their insights on how what they are going to do with their businesses and what im doing with my business i think will be so useful and beneficial. Let the scientists deal with the science and the vaccine end of the therapy and let the Business People give feedback on what we are going to do because, like i said, its not going to be the same. It will be different and having these insights will be valuable. Sandra i know thats one area you will shown disagreement with the president. We will see a shaped recovery. I hear something much different from you as far as what you see and anticipate when we reopen. I think it will be more of a ushaped and not as much of a rocket ship. I know when i look at my company, we are still asking questions. When we get to the day we open all night businesses look the same . Right now it doesnt look that way. Im not going to dive in and spend the same money i did before. You want to kind of dip your toe in and get the lay of the land and find out whats going on. Once we get to that initial barrier and that initial understanding of the days, weeks and months and whatever it may be, that i think on the back end of that ushaped we can really accelerate. I dont think people will go back in and say, on february 1st this was my deposit, budget, im going to spend it on june 1st, but that doesnt mean the economy cant be great or take off, its just a question of when. I do have absolute confidence that we will get back to where we were. Sandra at the white house Kellyanne Conway was talking about forecasting a robust economy. Weve seen a lot of you lately, mark. Youve been across this network, other networks, youve been very vocal throughout this pandemic. Chris wallace over the weekend asked you about your president ial ambitions in a 2020 white house run. You didnt rule it out, although some things have changed since then. You now have a role inside the white house helping the president and advising them on when to reopen the economy and barack obama just endorsed joe biden for president. Have you changed your thinking or come to any conclusions on that . Im an entrepreneur so the door is always open for opportunity for me but my focus right now is helping the president , helping the American People and particularly Small Businesses where i can. We all have to come in together. Unless everybody is a hero, nobody is a hero. Im an american first. Sandra is it fair to say that you are still considering that for 2020 . I mean things changed so rapidly. At this had been a month ago i would have said absolutely not. You never say never but i dont think its a likelihood of. Not something im definitely going to do, not by a long shot. But we are in crazy time so you never say never. But im focused on helping the president. Sandra absolutely, thats the goal for everyone right now, to get this pandemic over with and get the economy reopened. Mark cuban, thanks so much for being here. Thanks so much for having me, have a great day. I am so proud to endorsed joe biden for the president of the United States. Closing the mike choosing joe to be my Vice President was the best decision i ever made. Ed a former president barack obama right there endorsing, and that comes one day after Bernie Sanders comes out in support of the Vice President. Just moments ago Elizabeth Warren finally announced shes endorsing bidens campaign as well. Joining us now is Chris Stirewalt. Good morning chris. Interesting that you see all of these backtobacktoback. It sounds like democrats are intent on making sure that this is not 2016 all over again where Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders had that kind of uneasy alliance. While we havent seen anybody in politics as bad as Hillary Clinton in our lifetim lifetimes. I dont think democrats have to worry about that. But what they do have to worry about is they have sort of an impossibly weak front runner and this gaggle of geese that have gathered around him honking are not a testament to his strength but rather to his weakness. They wouldnt have to do it. And this is of course unprecedented. A lot of whats going on right now is unprecedented. Youre getting used to unprecedented things happening but if you go back to 2004 which is the last time democrats had a quick and easy conclusion without an incumbent, you wouldnt expect to see this sort of coming together for months. And i do think by the way that Elizabeth Warrens endorsement here is the most significant one because she is the toughest ce cell. Ed its of barack obama among other things took some veiled shots at donald trump of course but he also said something that might be more about biden. Take a listen. Joe has the character in the experience to guide us through one of our darkest times and heal us through a long recovery. And i know he will surround himself with good people. Experts, scientists, military officials, who actually know how to run the government. And to care about doing a good job running the government. Ed so you could read that as a shot at donald trump but to your point a moment ago about this unusually weak nominee in front runner joe biden, the whole part of that was he will surround himself with good people. Experts, scientists. I know he may not be the best front runner but he will have a great cabinet. Chris . While obama, who is the least experienced at this point, the least experienced public figure to ever become president until donald trump, he chose a running mate and chose people around him to telegraph solidity, strength, we got this. When george bush chose dick cheney as his running mate, he said i know im young and i know im relatively unexperienced but this guy knows the ropes. Biden has a problem that he struggles to stay in the swim. He gets puzzled, and they need to show, we are going to have the best people. If joe biden ran for the democratic nomination as an obama restoration, what obama is saying is, it will be. We will get the good people together, we will get the band back together and its going to be great. Ed chris really quick, i vote wanted to Say Something ive always wanted to say on the air. Take a listen to cardi b. I think obama took joe biden as a Vice President because thats how he got to the conservative vote. Im very excited that you are endorsing him. Like why would you vote for him, and its great for us to vote for joe biden. Ed so talk about the cardi b vote there with Bernie Sanders. You know, its cicero, its jefferson, its lincoln, its cardi b. Throughout history these voices of political philosophy. Bernie sanders answer there was actually revealing and whats revealing is, and it was in Elizabeth Warrens endorsed tweet, stuff is weird and we need a normal person as president. Joe bidens normal, do that. So biden is benefiting from the low expectations of people and their high anxiety, including cardi b. Ed Chris Stirewalt literally covering it all this morning. Great to see you. Sandra the state of louisiana meanwhile seeing its largest oneday number of new cases but the governor is saying that there is also reason to be optimistic. We will explain. Plus the u. S. Militarys battle against the coronavirus. What is the biggest challenge facing the pentagon in dealing with this pandemic . We will be speaking to defense secretary mark esper. He is our guest, coming up. This is a necessary measure to keep our people safe and our military ready to act. We will continue to remain flexible and agile as we work to defeat this invisible enemy. It will take time but we will get through this and we will get through this together and stronger as a result. Fifty years ago, humpback whales were nearly extinct.
