Against the variants right now. The more contagious variant first found in south africa is here. It almost certainly means theres other cases out there. This is new day, with Alisyn Camerota and john berman. Welcome to our viewers in the United States and all around the world. This is new day. It is friday, january 29th, its 6 00 here in new york. So why is this man smiling . No, not the guy on the left who lost an election by 7 million votes and presided over the deaths of 400,000 americans from coronavirus. The guy on the right, the republican leader on the right. Why is he smiling . Because hes been working on some bipartisan deal to get vaccines to millions of people .

If you take a look at this hard drive and youre an fbi agent, youre compelled to do something about it because there are things on it that havent come out yet that if any fbi agent sat by and watched it, they shouldnt be an fbi agent. Maria the fbi was leaking stories to web sites, and then they would use those stories that they leaked as evidence to renew the warrants to spy on the trump campaign. This is a scandal, and it stinks. If you look at what the Obama Administration did, it politicized the fbi, the department of justice, the cia. It used them, essentially, as a political Oppo Research

September retail sales delivering a big beat. Futures up this morning. Carl david and leslie, a couple of things working in the bulls favor today. Three days down. A little bit of room to bounce back on the upside, david. But futures were slightly negative, then we got that open letter from pfizer, saying that we could be looking at potentially a request for an eua by mid to late november and retail sales with that blowout number for the month and year on year the figures, david, reflect a consumer that has put together a nest egg during the course of the summer, and that is continuing to provide some momentum for the consumer.
