Some governors have deemed the Liquor Stores and abortion clinics as essential but have left out churches and other houses of worship. Its not right. So im correcting this injustice and calling houses of worship essential. There are of course questions over the president s authority to issue such a decree, but regardless, his insistence on a rushed reopening flies in the face of what Health Officials advise. Today trump decided to go golfing for the first time in 75 days at his private club in virginia as millions of americans remain fearful amid this pandemic. An astounding 83 are at least somewhat concerned that lifting restrictions in their area will lead to additional infections. Joining me now, andy slavic, director for medicare and medicaid a medicaid. Andy, you are involved in an effort to sort of figure out how to open the country safely.

Good tuesday morning, everybody. Im yasmin vossoughian. We have a lot to get to. Were going to start on when and if the president was ever briefed on the russian bounty plot, continuing be hazy as various news outlets claim different timelines. Two officials are telling nbc news trump learned about the matter only after it became public in news reports. Officials are saying the u. S. Received, quote, raw intelligence based on limited sourcing, suggesting russia was offering cash for american troops in Coalition Forces in afghanistan. The officials said the intelligence was not corroborated broadly within the Intelligence Community, and there was disagreement about its validity. The two officials said the information came up at a meeting of low level staffers at a National Security meeting back in march. Meanwhile two officials familiar with the matter tell the New York Times that american officials provided a written briefing in late february to the president , laying out their conclus
Is. As donald trump seeks reelection despite it all. Which is why joe biden is taking steps to push his campaign into high gear tomorrow. This is an special unique moment for the Biden Campaign, biden is boasting strong poll numbers, leading the sitting president by eight points. Season a fox news poll. But with the ups come the downs. Biden risked alienating his base with significant missteps as recently as this week. Which is why careen john pierre matters. Part of the obama 2008 campaign who became a staffer and an author and while we still had her an msnbc contributor and fan favor, careen adds crucial credibility and experience to team biden. But she also enhances the team in another way. As a senior adviser, she will join what until now has been a rather exclusive club. Despite the presence of high profile africanamerican staffers, like senior advisers Simone Sanders and despite the fact that black voters literally rescued bidens third president ial campaign from certain demise,
Good monday morning, everybody. It is may 25th, memorial day. We are remembering those who lost their lives during a battle were still trying to win against the coronavirus. The u. S. Death toll from the virus is now approaching 100,000. Eclipsing that of the wars in vietnam, the persian gulf and afghanistan. The New York Times covered the front page with the names of americans who lost their lives to covid19. Just a fraction, 1 of the deaths so far. Another headline that sums up the weekend comes from the Washington Post, quote, on weekend dedicated to war dead, trump tweets insults, promotes baseless claims and plays golf. The president visited his golf club in virginia on saturday and sunday. He said nothing about the rising death toll, but he did find tweets to most nancy pelosi and Stacey Abrams and continued to promote a baseless Conspiracy Theory about any colleague, Joe Scarborough that has been debunked several times over. The Biden Campaign wasted no time in putting out this
Soninlaw agrees to testify in the Senate Russia probe and new reporting about the growing civilian depth toll in mosul. I would just bomb those suckers and thats right all in starts right now. Good evening from los angeles. Im chris hayes, just over two months into his presidency, the man build as the negotiator of the chief and hes earning his lowest Approval Ratings as president after the collapse of his first large scale undertaking. The gops bill to dismantle the Affordable Health care act. Its harder to be one and play one on tv. The white house tried to shift its focus back to executive actions teeing up penalties for socalled sanctuary cities and preparing to roll back climate regulations. The retreat that the president promise and deliver going back today one of his campaign. Ive watched the politicians. Ive dealt with them all my life. If you cant make a good deal with a politician, then theres something wrong with you. Youre certainly not very good. Our country needs a truly
