In excerpts of the book published in an essay earlier this month, Boehner decried what he said are the crazy forces that have taken control of the Republican Party and the conservative media landscape and pumped oxygen into its worst impulses.
He also told Todd on Sunday that the potential plan to form a nativist anti-immigration America First Caucus in the House was one of the nuttiest things I ve ever seen. America is a land of immigration, he said. We ve been the world s giant melting pot for the last 200 years, and we ve got to celebrate that we re this giant melting pot.
It does sound like you re saying, My hands are tied, Todd said. Well, at the end of the day, this is going to come down to whether or not everyone does their part. That s the most important thing, the governor responded. We re imploring people to take this seriously, mask up, get tested, she continued. If you ve been around someone who s positive, stay home. And if you do get COVID, use one of these monoclonal antibodies so that we can keep you out of the hospital and help you retain your health.
Michigan s Supreme Court ruled in October that Whitmer did not have the constitutional authority to continue extending a state of emergency declared due to the COVID-19 pandemic, under which Whitmer had imposed the state s stay-at-home orders.
[W]hat happens is that you might get infected and get absolutely no symptoms, not know you re infected, and then inadvertently go into a situation with vulnerable people. And if you don t have a mask, you might inadvertently infect them, he said, adding that there was a small risk of such a situation occurring. [W]hen you get vaccinated you are clearly diminishing dramatically your risk of getting infected. That s one of the things we ve got to make sure everybody understands. You dramatically diminish it, Fauci added.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines currently recommend that vaccinated Americans continue wearing masks in public, though the agency says that vaccinated people congregating exclusively with others who have received the vaccine can do so safely without a mask. Attending medium or large gatherings with or without a mask is also still not recommended.
“The goal at the present moment is to address the existential threat that Donald Trump presents at this time. Every second, every minute, every hour that Donald Trump remains in office presents a danger to the American people,” Jeffries said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
“You know, Donald Trump may be in the Twitter penalty box, but he still has access to the nuclear codes. That s a frightening prospect,” he added, referring to the president s suspension from Twitter.
“All of our efforts at the present moment are focused on his immediate removal. That s the right thing to do. The House is a separate and co-equal branch of government,” Jeffries added. “We have a constitutional responsibility to serve as a check and balance on an out of control executive branch. Donald Trump is completely and totally out of control, and even his longtime enablers have now come to that conclusion.”
