if you go by the seven-day averages here, new cases dropped 58.5%. hospitalizations dropped 44%. head of the world health organization says the number of new cases has been declining now for the fifth consecutive week. so far this year the number of weekly reported cases has fallen by almost half. from more than 5 million cases in the week of january 4 to 2.6 million cases in the week starting february 8. just five weeks. this shows that simple public health measures work. even in the presence of variants. what matters now is how we respond to this trend. the fire is not out, but we have reduced its size. let s talk about this now with dr. wilbur chen, an in infe infectious disease expert and serves on the cdc s advisory committee on immunization practices. okay. let s talk about the good news here. i mean, the numbers are still high, but we are seeing this big drop. that is certainly welcome news. tell us what you re seeing. tell us why we re seeing this drop. tell us ho
again and again. for every minute he was late his wife would lose a finger. a high stakes stalemate. a high speed car chase. he just hit a third vehicle. stop! how did the gun manno everything about their victims? their secret weapon could turn everyone into a potential target. they would find people on social media. be careful what you put out for the world to see. it is a mouse click away. it is a beautiful september day in the mountains of north caroli carolina. a beautiful stretch of interstate. it started off as a rue teak traffic stop but it was anything but routine. then you see the passenger door open briefly, shut, and take off again. you see the vehicle swerve, and you see bracelets go on. he just hit a third vehicle. we start in 2016 with matt gusman, a chief financial officer. i have been playing hockey for 30 something years. i play every week, sometimes twice a week, all summer long all winter long. money management pays his bills but hoc
endorsed and repeated. 11 republicans chose to cross the aisle to join the democrats. here they are in ejecting greene from those committees which essentially sends her into a kind of legislative exile. in remarks on the house floor this afternoon, greene apologized for none of it. she expressed regret for her comments and said she, quote, stumbled into qanon after doubting media reports. the problem with that is, though, i was allowed to believe things that weren t true. you see, school shootings are absolutely real, 9/11 absolutely happened. i never once said any of the things that i am being accused of today during my campaign, i never said any of these things since i have been elected for congress. these were words of the past. shall we stay divided like this? will we allow the media that is just as guilty as qanon of presenting truth and lies to divide us? here for the record the briefest reminder of some of greene s greatest hits that led to today s vote. any amer
and why. good evening. the appeals court again echoing this argument that trump cannot claim executive privilege, that president biden the man holding the office has waived. it is a slap at trump s fundamental argument the same one by the way that he s always trying to use. yes, don. some legal cases are close calls and could go either way. the law could be interpreted either way. this was not that. this is a complete and total dismantling of donald trump s executive privilege argument. this court of appeals essentially said the former president claims that as a former president he can invoke executive privilege but he never offers us even the beginning of any reason why that is the case. so this is a complete rejection of the executive privilege argument. i should note also the court goes out of its way to stress the importance of the committee s ongoing investigation of january 6th. they say this isn t just important but essentially it is hard to think of anything more i
point. last night if you were to sum it in in a single phrase we ve had enough. there s a limit to which row push the american population before they gently and push back. that s exactly what we just saw. it is now impossible to deny this country is in the middle of some kind of political realignment and the people who run our country did not see itom coming. there are a lot of examples here, the obvious and the not so obvious to start with the latter. in texas last night ruskens just flipped an overwhelmingly hispanic district one that went for joe biden by 14 points a year ago. 14 points. because of course hispanic districts go democrat because hispanics are democrats, right? welsher the rusken in that district john luhan won and he won by calling for the one thing you re not allowed to call for, border security. countries have borders. everybody understands that no matter what color they are, it turns out. mean while, in a place that looks very different from the southern
