New york and the state and the president appeared to be a bit freda. Watch. Saw on the news this morning, we are sending 400 ventilators. I need 30,000 ventilators, you want a pat on a back christening 400 ventilators . I watched Governor Cuomo and he was we are building him hospitals, medical centers but we are doing definitely more than anyone else, he shouldve ordered the ventilators. Well have coverage on the back and forth later but more on the breaking news. A deal between the senate and Trump Administration is ready. The stimulus package expected to be worth 2 trillion. We begin with Fox News Contributor correspondent chad pergram. What do we know at this hour . Here in the past hour, trace, the Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell said, at last we have a deal after days of intense negotiations. They have an agreement on this to trillion dollar package. Perhaps the largest single bill to ever move through congress. Now congress is out now, senators outcome of the just went out
Immunologist anthony fauci, hes out with a sobering and stark estimate saying we could see as many as 200,000 deaths across the country from the coronavirus in the most extreme. So its difficult to predict, looking at what we are seeing 200,000 cases. I dont want to be held to that excuse me, deaths. I just dont think that we really need to make a projection when its such a moving target that you could so easily be wrong. Eric well, he certainly hope it does not reach that. Fox News Coverage for you. On latest International Response to all of this, u. S. Ambassador kelly kraft, shes with us later in the hour. First lets begin with Steve Harrigan live in atlanta.

Theyre called tax e
And what we do these things like furloughs, we do them across the board. And you can bet that the federal debt the best federal employees are saying ive got to get out of here. What youre left with are mediocre and poor performers. The furloughs are so poorly targeted that you are basically sending your message to your best workers that if you can find a job with a contractor, if you can find a job with a private firm, now is the time to go.
