Mr. Biden good afternoon. Im here today to talk about infrastructure and jobs and our clean energy future, but i have to start by speaking about what millions of americans know when they wake up every morning with worry, anxiety, and fear. Were still a country in crisis. The pandemic has affected more than 3 million americans. It has cost more than 135,000 lives and climbing, and it shows no signs of slowing down. In just the last few days, 19 states 19 states reported record cases, including florida, which saw more than 15,000 new cases in a single day. Hospitalizations and deaths, two of the most concerning indicators of trumps failed response, are already unacceptably high, and they are rising. Its gotten bad enough that even donald trump finally decided to wear a mask in public. Im glad he made the shift. But mr. President , its not enough. We wont be able to turn the corner and get the American People back to work safely without president ial leadership. Mr. President , open every
Claims. 1. 3 million last week, and that is the 15th weekly decline, so the downtrend continues. However, 17 million are still unemployed and still collecting benefits. Ive got two big tech stories for you. First off, the twitter hack. Fake messages appeared from big name celebrities. It was a bitcoin scam.
