There’s a Corona task force at the White House, but “the task force will not give Trump its final verdict until Jared Kushner, the president’s senior adviser and son-in-law, finishes his research and comes to a conclusion himself,” per @anitakumar01
politico.com/news/2020/03/1…
Kushner is not a doctor, nor has he ever served in government before 2017. He holds a JD/MBA from a school to which his parents donated an enormous amount of money and previously ran his family real estate company.
January: “I've been studying this now for three years," Kushner said of the [Israeli-Palestinian] conflict. "I've read 25 books on it, I've spoken to every leader in the region, I've spoken to everyone who's been involved in this." businessinsider.com/jared-kushner-…

Bloomberg in Fox town hall makes clear at this point he's thinking more about a contested convention than winning outright: "doesn't even have to be one of the two leading candidates .. if the rules say you can swap votes and make deals, then you can swap votes and make deals"
on Pence leading Corona efforts, Bloomberg says, "Seems like a nice guy. I have nothing bad to say about him. But he did say that smoking doesn't cause cancer. ... I don't think you want to go to a doctor and ask a doctor's political persuasion."
"about the third term, it started to get out of hand, and maybe I wasn't paying attention," Bloomberg says of stop-and-frisk. "We didn't pick on any particular ethnicity, but cops always went to the high crime neighborhoods."

Harry Reid was asked about it last week - and he didn't deny it

Pat Leahy was also asked about it last week - and he didn't deny it
theatlantic.com/politics/archi…
multiple people remember being very worried in 2011 that Sanders was going to run a primary against Obama, and that Reid had two conversations with Sanders about it that summer. The only people who say that is not the case are Sanders and people who work for him.
This isn't the first conversation with a fellow senator that Sanders says didn't occur the way the other senator remembers it: there was also the conversation from late 2018 with Elizabeth Warren in which she says he said a woman couldn't win, and he says he didn't say that.

NEW from me: Bernie Sanders was so close to running a primary against Obama for re-election that Harry Reid had to step in to stop him

theatlantic.com/politics/archi…
Sanders aides have repeatedly downplayed how serious Sanders was about taking on Obama as a "disappointment," but a conversation relayed by Patrick Leahy had the Obama campaign "absolutely panicked.”

It took Reid two conversations to talk Sanders out of running.
The Sanders-Obama relationship has long been fraught. Another never reported incident: in 2013, when Sanders ripped into Obama for suggesting Social Security cuts in a private meeting with senators.

"I don't need a lecture," Obama told him. Sanders made sure he got one.

If containment fails, and this projection comes true, the hardships that the world would experience during the onset of the first coronavirus pandemic would be hard to comprehended through our current eyes. A first for the modern world.
That’s further out, but if COVID-19 does break through to influenza scale, the benefit would be in a substantial population of immunity & antibodies. Those prospects are now where China is focusing. Antibody donation could improve outcomes; that’s moving from secondary priority.
The best outcome of a worst case scenario would be herd immunity. But, millions would die, medical infrastructure would be overwhelmed at even a fraction of the early generational spread, & the world would be on pause. Transfusion is not the golden ticket; you need a lot of infra

“White House aides are planning to add communications aides dedicated to impeachment, a move that Jared Kushner, the president’s senior adviser and son-in-law, has pushed for. Among those under consideration to help lead the new team is Tony Sayegh...” nytimes.com/2019/10/24/us/…

The president’s team is choosing to attack the impeachment process as their main message. It is behind the storming of the SCIF yesterday and the resolution by Graham today. analytics.twitter.com/mob_idsync_cli…

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

President and Mrs. Trump are dining at the Trump Hotel DC right now.
It’s a 7:41 drive from the White House to the Trump Hotel DC (with a motorcade; slower for you).
