We may have some rain by the end of the week. Well talk more about that coming up in a few minutes. Mike, how is the commute rolling . Well, kari, its not rolling so smoothly or quickly i should say at the bay bridge toll plaza. It is moving smoothly when you get to move there. The metering lights turned on just before 5 30. This may be in part due to lower visibility. Low clouds here. Theres fog across the span. Just a little closer to the middle of the screen circled west 580. The bridge from richmond to san rafael. A disabled vehicle there. A little toyota could be causing a bigger problem as the backup starts to form. The rest of the bay as you would expect. Back to you. We begin at the Walter Reed Medical Center where President Trump is being treated for covid19. Live pictures now. Also at the hospital today in the bays tracie potts. Tracie, we just heard that the decision to discharge the president will be made later on today. What will that entail . Reporter well, the president
Very much with us. Is greg joining us davis. I want to push you into a realm of speculation about the president or google hope he has a speedy recovery along with the first lady walk me through how you processed this.

Do you thinkt about the degree to which consumers will engage or disengage in the coming months, given what is playing out in europe and the spark spike in the United States . Gereg when we start to see start to see effective vaccines, you will see a broader reopening of the economy not just in the u. S. But until people get back to facetoface activity and trash traveling and leisure and hospitality, it will be a drag on the economy. We still think the recovery will be relatively slow here when you think about the implementation and availability of the vaccine, it will go to front

The committee on first i would like to welcome everyone and go through some administrative things. Weve taken the advice of the attending physician that center for Disease Control health and Human Services so we are seated 6 feet apart. There is no room for the public. And the press is operating by poll although this can be watched by streaming or later in an era of fashion. The witnesses were here in person and we welcome them. Some senators are in person in the summer participating by videoconference. I would like to say this about masks. Weve consulted with the attending physician. Since we are 6 feet apart we dont need to wear a mask when we are here although you are free to if you want to. I wear my mask when i am outside of this room according to the recommendation of all four of the witnesses who are here today. Im grateful to the rules committee, sergeant at arms press gallery, the Capitol Police and for all the hard work to keep us online and safe. Senator murray and i will ea
