What happened . Right. And we are waiting, don, for more information about that officer that has been shot. Any moment, now, we are waiting to hear from police chief Robert Schroeder. Let me just review and get to the point where we can explain how that officer got shot. It all started just at about 8 00. We were at Jefferson Square park. The crowd started to become more and more agitated. Some of them started to set small fires. Then, minutes later, about 8 15, a crowd of a couple hundred broke off from the park. Started marching throughout downtown louisville. Once they reached an overpass, we heard what sound
Many of those infected attended a white house rose garden event last saturday introducing judge Amy Coney Barrett. President trumps nominee for the Supreme Court. We have live Fox Team Coverage on all angles of the president s diagnosis, but we begin with Mark Meredith. They dont know how he contracted it and the focus is on making sure the family gets the treatment they need. It was around this time last night that we saw the president there wearing a mask make his way to marine one and fly to Walter Reed Medical Center Officials Say they dont know how long hes going stay there. And while doctors say the president s condition has improved and Administration Official also told reporters today they remain concerned about what the next 48 hours are going to look like.

States. The president late today making it plain in a tweet from maralago that when it comes to getting the Covid Vaccine into the arms of those who need it most, its not his problem.

The Vaccination Program is moving now, if it continues to move as it is now, its going to take years, not months, to vaccinate the American People. As can you imagine
