Chris. Thank you anderson. I appreciate it as always. I am chris cuomo, and welcome to prime time. Have you heard how many deaths the key white house model says reopening will cause . The number just between now and august is nauseating. Fauci and the cdc heads say we dont have this under control and that reopening may cause outbreaks. States are begging for money to test and trace. Red state governors as well echoing the concerns, begging to be able to use federal funds to help in their own way. Testing and tracing. Well, when will this president and his pals respond to desperate times with Desperate Measures . California is. They just made a surprise move ordering all State University campuses to cancel most inperson classes for the fall. Is that too much . Is it enough . Well discuss. Also, we have another key guest in the georgia homicide case, the man who owns that house thats under construction, the one that Ahmaud Arbery has been shown in walking slowly, surreptitiously through the house in his final hours. The apparent house that a recused prosecutor suggested arbery burglarized. Time for the truth. What do you say . Lets get after it. 10,000 more people will die potentially from reopening too soon. What a question we have to ask ourselves . Is that worth it . Now, if you dont like the number, complain to the white house. The key coronavirus model often cited by them projects that by just august well go from the 82,000 plus lives weve already lost to maybe 147,000 due in large part to reopening. Now, this estimate is nearly double the forecast of 74,000 from just two weeks ago. 10,000 more than predicted just over the weekend. Why . You know why. Because thats what happens when you stop socially distancing and isolating. Is this what prevailing looks like . Even republicans had to admit that we still have not responded. We have not seized the moment when it comes to testing and that testing is absolutely essential to building the trust we need to reopen. A Republicanled Senate committee did not perpetuate this president s poppycock. What our country has done so foo far on testing is impressive but not nearly enough. All roads back to work and school go to testing. We treaded water during february and march, and as a result by march 6 the u. S. Had completed just 2,000 tests whereas south korea had conducted more than 140,000 tests. So, partially as a result of that, they have 256 deaths and we have almost 80,000 deaths. I find our testing record nothing to celebrate whatsoever. Nowhere near, lamar alexander, mitt romney would be believed, but not now, not now. Trumps grip on his party strangulates any gasp of truth even from senior members. Despite being wrong consistently, misleading consistently, and outright lying too often, most republicans in our new cnn poll still say they trust trump. If only we had the herd immunity to covid19 that so many of these folks have. Only dr. Fauci approaches trust with the right. Will they listen to him when he says something this president has never even come close to suggesting . My concern is that we will start to see little spikes that might turn into outbreaks. If you think we have it completely under control, we dont. The right direction does not mean we have by any means total control of this outbreak. Cdc head says same thing. The proposition is how can we beat the virus if we cant even get on the same page about how important the fight is, if we cant even agree on what it takes to win . Lets bring in dr. Sanjay gupta and andy syllabic. First, just a slap in the face of reality for us. Sanjay, 10,000 deaths is the approximated cost of reopening as of now. Have you ever seen america make a choice like this before . No. No, i dont think most people alive today have seen america make a choice like this. And, you know, i mean, i hate to say it, chris, but these numbers, these models, are all over the place. That might even be low. When we saw the numbers sort of jump up in this particular model, they went to, whatever, 134,000 or Something Like that, and that was not even taking into account all the states that were opening. We know that more people are going to get infected as a result of this reopening and more people are going to probably need to be hospitalized and obviously sadly more people will die. I think that thats this is dr. Fauci and the task force have been consistent on this all along. We have these criteria. Theyre not perfect. No matter when you open, there will be new infections. But heres how to do it as safely as possible. Those really seem to have been thrown out the window at this point. Its baffling, chris. Andy, what do you make of the idea that it has not changed. The stubborn resistance to having to do anything more, that its been long enough. Even with that number put out there as what it will mean, if you do it now, 10,000 more may die, doesnt change the calculus. Why . Well, chris, i think there are some clues in whats going down in the senate right now. First of all i want to commend the Senate Committee for a very constructive hearing really not about the politics but about the issue at hand. But the tale is this, Mitch Mcconnell is asking for one specific thing in order to get the bill negotiated that he sends to the president s desk. And that one particular thing is liability for all employers if the economy reopens again and people die or get hurt. Thats the one thing he wants. And i think we should step back and understand that what theyre effectively saying is open the country not at their risk. Come back to work, but its not going to be on me. If you get injured, if you get sick, if you get hurt, thats going to be on you. And that shows how much confidence they have in what the consequences will be if the economy reopens. They just dont want to pay for it. Sanjay, what do you think of this . I had not heard that before, andy. That is its hard to think about and imagine that way that people are sort of already thinking about the liability of this, acknowledging that people are going to get sick and die and now just trying to figure out whos to blame for this. Its tough. I get it. People want the economy to reopen. But to think that far in advance about this as opposed to just thinking about trying to prevent these deaths i think is its jarring a little bit to hear that, andy. Well, ill tell you what though. Lets stay very sharp in terms of what we know of the mood in the country right now. Do people want to reopen . Yes. Do they want to reopen, andy, if they do not get the confidence of testing and tracing to understand what is safe and what to base their risk analysis on . Every poll says no. So, what do we know about the country, and is trump really in step with where americans are . Well, look, first of all, i think generally speaking people want to reopen safely. Right. And people are in a bad position either way and everyone gets that. But heres the point. I think maybe the less important question to me at least is what do people in the country want, and how can we lead people . Because we know that theres going to be conflict. We know that all of us, including those of us who know that the right thing to do is to stay at home are going the to get stir crazy. Were going to wish the circumstances are different. And its at those moments that we need leaders to help guide us there, to pass legislation that supports us, to put in place testing and tracing and isolation so that we can feel safer, just basically to tell us that were doing something good instead of to play into the populist rhetoric or populist sentiment out there and trying to make people happy even though its going to lead to people dying. Its an interesting juxtaposition, sanjay, that the president s thing is about being antie list. His buddies on fox state tv antielitist. 10,000 deaths are the price tag this model puts on this. Talk about being elitist. If thats okay, who do you think those 10,000 are going to be . Whos getting infected the most . The working class. The brown working class. Whos most afraid of reopening too soon . The brown working class. Whos getting sick the most . The brown working class. Whos dying the most . They are. Theres nothing elitist about that. Its everything thats elitist. Yeah, i mean, this is this is obviously one of the great tragedies here is that people who are keeping the country running, making it so that we can all actually be able to be safe at home with delivery, with transportation, hospital workers, front line workers are predominantly black and brown america. You look at michigan, 14 africanamerican population, 42 of the deaths in that state are black or brown america. So, its obviously disproportionately affecting certain segments of the population. I do think what andy said is very interesting, the idea that everyones talking about the vaccine, everyones talking about the therapeutics. If we have good testing in place because people are going to want to get out, even people with the best of intentions, if we can start providing some sense of confidence that they are not harboring the virus in their own bodies, if people around them are not harboring the virus, its going to make it psychologically more palpable for people and less likely for them to get sick. I dont know what the right amount of testing is. I think its one of those things where youll know it when you see it. But its going to be enough to get people the confidence to start going back out because theyre going to at some point. Just got to make sure we do it as safely as possible. Weve just got to be clear about what the it is. The it is people trying to make Risk Assessment by themselves. The only reason to not jump on testing is to hide the truth. And the mistake is that it winds up being something where this administrations going to be hoisted in on its own, the french expression of being blown up by the own bomb theyre carrying because theyre hiding from testing because they dont want poeople to know the truth because they believe the truth will make it harder to reopen when the opposite is the truth. If people know the numbers theyll make their own Risk Assessments and the American People are a balance si people. Theyll go out and do what they can. Theyll take risks if they know theyre not being played with and they know theyre being played. Thank you for keeping it real on the show. Dr. Fauci very cautious today. Why . Because he has to fear the unknown, not pander to it for advantage. Asked about schools, colleges, reopening in the fall. We know we have to do it if we want to go back to work. How can you go back to work if your kids are still at home . California took a big step today, ordering state campuses closed for now. College, but still, a huge move. What will it mean . And also lets look at it. Was it the right move or too much . Another very valued doctor and the head of the cal state system, the perfect guests here next. With unlimited from metro and the new iphone se. Gabriel rules. After a hard day on the job. Hes still working hard making sure a family tradition. Stays a tradition. Get the brandnew iphone se for less than a hundred bucks when you switch to metro. And right now, get four lines of unlimited for just twentyfive bucks each. Metro. Its all gabriel needs to rule his day. Yoohoo, progressive shoppers. We laughed with you. Sprinkles are for winners. We surprised you. On occasion, weve probably even annoyed you. Weve done this all with one thing in mind. To help protect the things you love. And if we cant offer you the best price well help you find a better one. Its not always the lowest even if its not with us. Thats how weve done it for the past 80 years. Not just today, or this month, but always. Show me what youre made of. So we showed it our people, sourcing and distributing more fresh food than anyone. Our drivers helping grocers restock their shelves. How were helping restaurants open popup markets. And encouraging all americans to take out to give back. Adversity came to town. So we looked it in the eye. And it wont be us. That blinks first.

That will be a big moment. Now, college students, their semester may look a lot like the semester that just ended if they go to school in california because that state today cancelled most inperson classes at the 23 campuss in their State University system. This is a big move. The man who is at the head of the University System is timothy white. Hes the chancellor of the california State University system. He made the announcement today. We also have dr. William schaffner, not only a leading Infectious Disease specialist and friend of show, also a professor at vanderbilt and on the task force to determine that prestigious universitys school plan. Gentlemen, did you for making yourselves available on such an important night. Happy to be here, chris. So, chancellor, reservations, and if not, what do you believe made this the right move at this time . Let me be clear. The california State University actually remains open. And were steadfast in our commitment to inclusive excellence. We stand ready for the next Academic Year as well. It will just be different in some ways, but not in all ways. And at the front of our list is the health and wellbeing of our students and employees. Its the most important factor in any decision we make, based on science and data and Public Health advice and medical advice. Were announcing the planning horizon now because we want to give the maximum time and flexibility to our students, new students and ongoing students, as well as an opportunity between now and the fall for more robust professional training to our faculty and staff, not only for the instructional aspects but also for the vitally important academic support and Student Support services. Give me a little context, though, chancellor, on two levels. You bet. First, why was it in the best interest of the students to not have them be inperson classes, to do it now, with different technological means the way were doing . Why do you believe that it is necessary to keep it that way in the fall . Were a large university. Over 500,000 students and about 55,000 employees across an 800mile swath of california. And, you know, were concerned with the epidemiology of the disease and what is forecast not only currently. Its starting to stabilize a bit in california, in different regions, but not all. But as we looked to the fall term, we see another wave coming that, coupled with influenza, perhaps will be even more difficult than the moment now. So, if you have 500,000 plus people in close proximity on a daily basis vibrantly interacting with each other, thats not conducive to mitigating the spread of the disease. And we cant change the biology of covid19. But we can change the behaviors to minimize the current spread and morbidity and mortality associated with it. Chancellor, what does it mean for the employees . You said somewhere between 52,000 and 55,000 workers, depending on how you want to count heads. What does this mean for them . Do they keep their jobs . How do you sustain that population . It takes the brilliance of our faculty and staff to deliver courses using Virtual Technology as it does to do it in person. So, we have simply pivoted the venue, if you will, from all of it being in person to some of it being in person based on a set of criteria, but a lot of it being done virtually. It still takes the brilliance of faculty, staff, the technology, i. T. Folks are doing amazing work in order to deliver and engage our students with this new reality as we pass through this pandemic which isnt going to last a month or two or even for another six months or 12 months. This is an approach where we think about this over the course of the next year or two. How do we do our part as the largest fouryear university in the country, to mitigate and still make progress to a degree for our students and have them meet their career objectives sooner rather than later . I ask you the second part of that question because youre such a big job base for local communities on lowers levels underneath the teaching staff. Its important to know youre taking them into consideration when it comes to job security. Thank you for that. The burden on you, dr. Schaffner, is defending the proposition. People will hear what california is doing and will say, liberal lunacy, things are plateauing and going in the right direction in many parts of the country, were reopening, we dont know about any wave in the fall, this is way too much, way too soon. What do you say . What i say to them is that actually the chancellor has articulated a very conservative position. Hes taking into account the solid forecasts of all of us who are Infectious Disease doctors and in Public Health, that there will be a substantial surge of covid in the fall, and of course all of the issues that hes articulated, colleges across the country are thinking about right now, fretting about, trying to make their own decisions. Its true in my own university. Im a member of one of several task forces that are addressing all the issues and more that chancellor white mentioned. We havent made our decision yet. But its not an easy decision. As with all of these things, i say theres no right, no wrong decision, only tough decisions. The numbers that came out today, the model that the white house often cites from the university of washington research, show that reopening now, 10,000 more lives is the current estimate of how many may be lost in addition to the former projections because of reopening. What do you make of that proposition as a choice for america . Its an awful choice, because on the other side is all the financial depredation thats been going on. The cultural and social disruption. So its an exceedingly difficult balancing act. And its very important as we go forward to look at what the local circumstances are. In our circumstance, looking at whats happening in nashville and tennessee, how well are we controlling this outbreak, that applies to institutions across the country, as each of them is making their own decisions, watching very carefully their own capacity to respond to positive students and all of the issues related to student housing, dining, teaching the students, all the issues in managing a university, all of those things come to the fore as you try to make these very tough decisions. And as dr. Fauci added today, this idea that younger people are immune, theres no basis for that in science. Chancellor white, a really important day and i know its a trying day, so thank you to making your case to the American People on prime time. I appreciate it and good luck Going Forward. Dr. Schaffner as always, thank you for value you add to the show. The other big story we have to stay on, amhmaud arberys killing. If that video hadnt come out. You keep seeing this video slowed down more, slow down, keep repeating him going into the construction site. Why . Because this is why they had to kill him. This is why they had to take the 25yearolds life. Look at what hes doing. Lets look at what hes doing. The family Attorney Says the video inpseuside a home under construction proves they were unjustified because no matter how much we slow it down, what do you see him do that justifies what they did.

As you know, there is now a second piece of video under scrutiny. Its Surveillance Footage showing the 25yearold walking through a construction site that same day. Would you call this trespassing . Yeah. Could you call it justification for what the accused did, the mcmichaels . I dont know how. The mcmichaels, the accused in this case, told Police Seeing arbery on Surveillance Footage, were they talking about this . Triggered their actions. Does the owner of the home, mr. Larry english agree with that . He joins us alongside his attorney, beth gratty. Id also like to note the team, were working all the relevant parties every day. Governor brian kemp, state vick reynolds, state attorney general chris carr, the d. A. s office, the Glynn County Police department, all have either said, no thank you, just declined, wont respond, except for d. A. Jackie johnson. They sent us a statement saying her office acted appropriately under the circumstances but no comment. Were going to stay on it because we have to know what happened. Mr. English, thank you so much for taking this opportunity. I know its not convenient. I know it is frightening to be in the crosshairs of this situation for you and your family. So thank you for taking the time. Youre welcome. Counselor, you as well, thank you for making this possible. Mr. English, what is your feeling about the fact that Surveillance Video of your home in construction has become relevant and used the way you believe it is being used in this situation . First off, i would like to say that this is a tragedy, and im deeply sorry for the family and their loss. And also for my familys loss of peace thats been destroyed. We were innocent bystanders in the situation. As far as the video goes, i dont want it to be put out and misused and misinterpreted for people to think that i had accused mr. Arbery of stealing or robbery, because i never did. You never filed any report, you never called 911 about this video . The video of february 23rd, i made no calls. Do you believe that arbery stole anything from your house that day . No, whatsoever. Now, the mcmichaels told police in the Police Report here that he had been seen arbery had been seen on Surveillance Video. Did you share this video with the mcmichaels . No. Not whatsoever. Did they know of any past incidents at your construction site . Im not im not sure about that. Nothing you told them about . No. Were you aware of any string of burglaries that they say were going on in that neighborhood . Because we cant find Police Records of any string of burglaries in the neighborhood. I was. And what did you know about what was going on in the neighborhood . I only knew secondhand information, that maybe somewhere in the neighborhood of january, that a vehicle had been entered and some guns taken out of it. Are you aware that it was the mcmichaels who filed that report . No. Thats what Police Records show, according to our reporting on this, that they had reported it. Do you have any relationship with the mcmichaels . Do you have any feel for these gentlemen . No. Have you reported in the past things that happened at your construction site . I have. What kinds of things have happened and what do you think did it . The only thing that happened was my cameras would notify me i would be two hours away, and my cameras would notify me and might let me know somebody was on the property. And what have you seen on your property before . How common is it for people to enter the site . Not very i mean, not very common at all in the daytime, didnt have very much traffic, other than subcontractors and people working there. And that would have been about it. And didnt you report, though, that you believe something had been taken from the house but you couldnt identify who did it . No. Thats a false accusation. Oh, good to know, thank you very much. So you never reported anything about any Fishing Equipment or anything like that . The instance with the Fishing Equipment has got blown out of proportion. That was out of a boat, not out of the structure. And im not exactly sure when or where that happened. The boat was transported from brunswick to a location, where we live, two hours away. I never filed a report on that because i dont know for sure exactly where it happened. Boy, youre right, that is getting thrown all over the place as a potential other situation that arbery may have been involved in. And just to be clear, you never filed it, youve never accused him, and you dont have any reason to believe that Ahmaud Arbery had anything to do with that . That is correct. What do you think of the fact that one of your neighbors saw ahmaud trespassing on your property and it is fair. You have counsel here although you dont need it. Its great to have you here, beth, youre free to be be here and speak before you want. Certainly different than the interview i had last night. One of your neighbors called and said he took off from there. How do you feel about them making a report to 911 about what they saw with arbery leaving the property . I really dont know exactly how to answer that question. You know, everybody in the neighborhood kind of looks out for each others property. Its a small, tightknit community. Counselor, let me get you in here for a second. You gave us a statement from larry, just to understand the reckoning of his perspective on this. When larry saw the photos of mr. Arbery, his First Impression was that arbery was not the man captured on video inside the house on february 23rd and that he said that to the neighbor. Yes. My understanding is that when larry got the alert that the video had come into his phone, it took him about 20 minutes to look at it. And when he did, he called a neighbor just a couple of houses down and said, you know, my video is showing someones in the house. Is there someone there . And the neighbor told him, well, someone was, but hes been killed. And so, you know, by the time larry even saw the video, mr. Arbery had already been killed. And i think it was pretty soon after that that larry saw some photos of mr. Arbery, and he had not known him before. And when he saw those photos, he did not believe it looked like the man who is in the video from february 23rd. And then subsequently, we heard that that probably was him. But my understanding is larry didnt think it resembled him. But larry can speak to that if ive gotten that wrong, but thats my understanding. That squares with your reckoning, right, mr. English . Yes, correct. As i was trying to establish with ronny bryan last night, hes implicated directly in the Police Report by the mcmichaels, so i was giving him an opportunity, or at least trying to, to explain why they would see him as a part of this. Similarly tonight i wanted to afford you the opportunity to distance yourself. And just to be clear, youve said you dont know the mcmichaels . I do not. I know of travis. I only know him from just one introduction, and that was a very short, brief introduction. But you had nothing to do with what triggered their interest in mr. Arbery on february 23rd . He wasnt even there that day. He was two hours away. You werent there, you didnt speak to them on the phone, you didnt give them access to the Surveillance Video, you didnt contact them and tell them what had been seen on your home . No. Mr. English, i appreciate you taking this opportunity because were not getting anything from the authorities. Were having to figure out and look, this is the jofb journalism who knew what, who didnt know what. And its very important especially because your home has become a focal point of this to get your perspective and what you did and didnt do. Youve been very helpful in that regard, mr. English. And im sorry youre involved in any of this. Im sure its not easy for your family either. Im sure the arberys will appreciate your condolences. And counselor thank you for making this happen. Appreciate it. Now, theres more information here. Arberys autopsy is out. Well, why do we need that . We know what happened. But how it happened in terms of detail and sequencing is not going to be as simple as you assume. I guarantee you the autopsy will be a factor in testing the accused reckoning that they were attacked, okay . So, were going to look at that autopsy through that lens and whether or not there was prosecutorial misconduct early on. Not just inaction, but bad action. Lets do cuomos court. We have laura coats next. Feel the clarity of nondrowsy claritin. And 24 hour relief from symptoms caused by over 200 indoor and outdoor allergens. Like those from buddy. Because nothing should come between two best friends. Feel the clarity, and live claritin clear. Ambient sound fades in and plays throughout. Ambient sound begins to rise. Ambient crescendos and then goes silent for the tagline. Today an autopsy from state investigators was revealed and tells us that Ahmaud Arbery died of multiple shotgun wounds, three shots to be exact. Lets bring in a better mind. Former federal crimes prosecutor laura coates, always a pleasure, thank you. Lets put our head to this. The autopsy. We know how he died. But there can be very Important Information to use as a prosecutor. What will this autopsy mean . Well, first of all, how disturbing, we know there was a shotgun in close range, where they is say at least, what, 13 shotgun pellets exited his body and 11 were found in the wounds, two in his chest and one on the wrist . The reason thats important is because you want to look at the idea of what transpired . Was he in a struggle . The idea of his wrist being injured . Was it a defensive wound of him trying to block his body . Was it him trying to get the gun away from himself . How close range was involved . Also important to look at is the number of shots that were fired. The number of shots being fired can indicate to you just how much of an act of selfdefense was being claimed and whether its meritorious for travis mcmichael. You would think the idea of whether its a gun that has a rapid sort of trigger function or one that requires you to load each time or one that requires you to do it in succession, its all very important to understand just what was at play and whether this was somebody trying to get away or somebody who was intent on actually harming and killing ultimately Ahmaud Arbery. The ballistics analysis may show if the gun was pump fired, it shows more intense nalty, then the defense, the idea thats out there, it doesnt matter, its a stand your ground state. Its all fine. Is the analysis that simple . No, its not. First of all, in order for it to be a stand your ground state you have to understand whether its applicable here. It goes down to Foundation Even in selfdefense or stand your ground, you cannot provoke the circumstances that lead to the aggression and then play the victim card. The law is there in order to ensure that people who have been victimized are not required to retreat, are not required to run away. But the scenario were playing out here, is that the victim in this particular instance is Ahmaud Arbery. The idea of him standing his ground would be him trying to run away. As far as travis mcmichael, it seems he not only provoked it. He pursued and hunted him and now is trying to claim its selfdefense. Its inconsistent with what the law says and stands for. The other big thing were husbanding down here is whether or not the mcmichaels were fabricating their basis of suspicion, not that it would help them. But the idea of they saw him on Surveillance Video. Well, Larry English says he never shared the vSurveillance Video or anything about it with the mcmichaels. There was somebody else who called 911 on arbery for trespassing in Larry Englishs house. That leads us to only that person who could have told the mcmichaels about what happened there. As with rod i did last night. He was trying to help him. His lawyer says thats not true. How fundamental to this case is the basis that the mcmichaels acted upon and the truth of it . Its fundamental to show just how inappropriate their actions would be. If their basis was that they heard about somebody who was committing a crime in the neighborhood and the tragedy of that interview just gave with Larry English is the idea that the person that they presumably were trying to protect or trying to act in the interest of had no interest in pursuing it. Did not report it. Was not invested. The first time he heard of that, and actually saw, a young man had already been killed and rolled over on the street to make sure he didnt have a weapon according to the Police Report by these two men. So the idea of what you see here, whats fundamental is whether or not it goes to the georgia statute. The citizens arrest law only applies, chris, if you have immediate knowledge or actually observed a crime taking place. If nobody has reported to them about there being a Surveillance Video capturing anybody either trespassing or doing anything whatsoever, it undermines any argument they had met that requisite element of it being their immediate knowledge or they had a firsthand observation. What it does speak to instead is they believe they were somehow deputized to act in this way, to have shotguns, to pursue somebody who was trying to run away. And one more point, chris. Its so important here. When Ahmaud Arbery was trying to run away, he ran back toward the direction he was coming from, as in back to what they are perhaps claiming was the scene of some crime in some way. Not only was he running down the street at 1 00 in the afternoon, it is inconsistent that he would actually return to a place as if he was a fleeing criminal. All of it speaks to a tragedy and probably the reason why, chris, more than 70 days transpired and this is the best story they can come up with . I find that odd. Well, two other things are odd. Weve now heard from three different angles on this of the reporting. The only other breakin that anyone seems to know about for sure is the one the mcmichaels reported. According to martin savidges reporting about their own vehicle and what they said was a stolen firearm. Was that part of their motivation . Did they blame arbery for that . Because we also know that they had experience with arbery. This is going to be a big part of this story as we fill in the blanks Going Forward and no one helps with that better than you. Laura coates, thank you. Lets take a quick break. Thank you. Well be right back. You know whats good about this . Your signs pointing at my sign, so people are gonna look at my sign. Switch to progressive and you can save hundreds. You know, like the sign says. A lot goes through your mind. With fidelity wealth management, your dedicated adviser can give you straightforward advice and tailored recommendations. Thats the clarity you get with fidelity wealth management. Show me what youre made of. So we showed it our people, sourcing and distributing more fresh food than anyone. Our drivers helping grocers restock their shelves. How were helping restaurants open popup markets. And encouraging all americans to take out to give back. Adversity came to town. So we looked it in the eye. And it wont be us. That blinks first. Hey, a belated happy mothers day. Was nice of the love gov to bring our mama into the presser sunday. There was actually an Important Message for all of us in that moment once you were able to get past this desperate cry for help. So happy mothers day, grandma. I know i am your favorite. I know you dont want to say that because you have maria there. I know you want to see i know im your favorite deep down inside but you dont want to say it. Yap, yap, yap, yap, yap. Poor guy. If he needs to hear it so badly, can it really be true . But i digress. For me, the taller, stronger son who provided my parents with their only grandson who is named mario after my pop, its not about what my mother sees in me, but what i see in her that matters tonight and, frankly, what we all see in our mothers. We celebrate them not just because of how they treat us, but in how they treat themselves, their sacrifice. Ask my mama why and shell give you an answer with one word, familia. Family. We take care of family because were devoted to something bigger than them or us. The cause of the collective. But right now the American Family is in a period of dysfunction, were estranged and acting strangely. 10,000 more americans could die by august because so many places are relaxing social distancing . What happened to no man left behind . Now its 10,000 is okay . Look, its common sense that thats what would happen. You dont need the models to tell you that. If you stop social distancing. Thats why those who attack this reality do it with snark and cynical selfinterest, like senator rand paul did today. We never really reached any sort of pandemic levels in kentucky and other states. We have less deaths in kentucky than we have in an average flu season. Its not to say this isnt deadly, but really, outside of new england, weve had a relatively benign course for this virus nationwide. Remember, that beard, thats pauls covid beard. He had the virus. He still seems to be suffering from a type of sickness, but one of the soul. Does he really think that he has no obligation to anyone but his state . Americas never won by going every man and woman for themselves. Only when we are allin do we win. We are not prevailing. Not until we show the desperation to get tracing and testing. Until that, well be failing because were failing to give the truth to the people which will give them the trust they need to reopen. You cant wish a virus away. It wont miraculously disappear. The president traces and tests every damn day. And everyone around him has a mask on. Now, he doesnt because he wants to keep up the fox farce, this b. S. That covid19s overrated. I guess the antielitists over there are okay with 10,000 more dead. These liars and race baiters want you to think fauci is not to be believed, that social distancing is about stealing your freedom. Remember what your mother told you about people who have nothing good to say. They should say nothing at all. But more importantly, remember what our moms taught us in their own glorious example of love and action through giving, even when its hard, even when it hurts, because thats what family is all about. Thank you for watching. Cnn tonight with d. Lemon right now. How are you, sir . Better than i deserve. I always its interesting to me when i see the people yelling in the supermarket or wherever saying, you cant tell me to wear a mask and i always say, cant they tell you to wear pants
