.@PressSec denies that @CDCGov changed guidelines from medical professional's recommendations to fit what @realDonaldTrump wants, reads a @AmerAcadPeds letter which says guidelines should be "feasible" (which is the word she just said @realDonaldTrump objected to use by CDC)
Asked about @realDonaldTrump's 2nd term priorities, @PressSec claims "CARES Act 4" is one, plus "supporting our schools, supporting our families," a payroll tax holiday, but doesn't offer any details. Mentions deregulation and tax cuts as "conservative policies he's looking at"
