Dr. Fauci on coronavirus spreading during the next few weeks: "Two things we are looking for, A: Things are going to get worse before they get better, but B: What's happening now with many more tests going out very shortly ... hopefully, we'll be able to blunt that peak."
Dr. Fauci on coronavirus testing: "I would think within a week, we're going to see a real acceleration of testing, and as we go 2-3 more weeks – we are going to see much, much more. I think we are going to start to see a much different situation than we saw just a few weeks ago."

Live now on @MSNBC:

President Trump speaks during a White House coronavirus task force news conference.
NEW: President Trump says he has been tested for coronavirus, and he is awaiting the results of the test.
President Trump says he has a habit of shaking hands as a natural reflex, but we're all getting out of the habit of doing it amid the coronavirus spread; suggests not shaking hands for the long term, because it transfers germs.

WATCH: @Yamiche presses President Trump on the decision to downsize the White House national security staff, eliminating jobs addressing global pandemics.

The president calls it "a nasty question" and asserts that "I didn't do it."
@Yamiche In 2018, Tom Bossert, whose job as homeland security adviser on the NSC included coordinating the response to global pandemics, was fired. Bossert was not replaced. nbcnews.com/health/health-…
@Yamiche Last year, Rear Adm. Tim Ziemer, the NSC's senior director for global health security and biodefense, left the council and was not replaced.

Dr. Luciana Borio, the NSC's director for medical and biodefense preparedness, left in May 2018 and was also not replaced.

President Trump expected to declare a national emergency to allow more direct relief for coronavirus response.
BREAKING: President Trump declares national emergency over coronavirus.
President Trump says he will "most likely" be tested for coronavirus, not because he was photographed next to a Brazilian official who tested positive, he asserts, but "because I think I will do it anyway."

Things are probably going to get worse before they get better, and plausibly quite a bit worse, but in terms of positioning one's business over the medium term, I'd be spending a lot of time thinking "What changes to the status quo are going to be the new normal going forward?"
One answer here: hundreds of thousands of people are getting their first exposure to remote work and will likely be in that environment for months, and hundreds of employers will have X,000 employee-quarters worth of data on how remote workers perform, for the first time.
It seems very plausibly to me that some of those employees say "Actually, I wouldn't mind this being my new normal" and some of their employers go "Actually, we didn't notice the lack of office presence, so maybe we could hire in *does math* 99.5% more of the US, as a start."

It is time for one long #Coronavirus update. I have been resisting doing this as (1) I do not want to add to the hysteria & the panic & (2) I don't believe in doomsday predictions. Moreover, things have been moving so fast, who knows what's what. BUT it's time for real talk...
Overall, #Coronavirus (the outbreak of #COVID19) is REAL. The effects on your daily life from the fallout will be REAL. The impact society, economics, & politics in 2020 will be severe & REAL. None of this is Fake News. None of this should be downplayed. (2/
People who are trying to silence REAL discussion are doing a disservice to the public interest. This is a 9/11 & 2008 level event in terms of its impact on domestic & international dynamics. This thread is not about creating panic but encouraging a smarter response. (3/

1/4 Dear economic pundits. There are no technical fixes to the country’s fiscal/economic crisis so please stop giving the public hope with false elixirs. Tell Kenyans the truth. Theres no magic bullet.
2 The radical fiscal adjustment and reforms required for a turnaround, whether funded (e.g by IMF bailout) or unfunded requires political leadership, goodwill, resolve, sacrifices and risk taking that a dysfunctional lame duck government at war with itself is unlikely to muster.
3 Things are going to get worse before they get better—job losses, capricious taxation (e.g turnover tax ), business failures, higher cost of living, until something gives economically(financial crisis or debt default) or politically (revolt or elections).

The electoral college is not doing what it was designed to do, because it wasn't "designed" in any meaningful sense of the term. The extant electoral college is a kludge of different elements that existed for different purposes in the early republic.
For my part, I honestly don't give a fuck if the EC favors either rural or urban voters; I prefer a majoritarian Presidential election in any case. But even if your purpose is to maximize the impact of rural voters, the EC is a *horrible* way to go about it.
In service of maximizing the influence of the good people of Wyoming, the EC effectively "disenfranchised" (if we're going to bother using that term) *many* Wyoming-sized chunks of the GOP electorate in California.
