He did that on the anniversary of Selma — the mar- — the march that we know the icon John Lewis helped to lead. And he wanted to make sure that he took action and not just words. As vice president, Harris is the undisputed favorite to succeed President Biden — though really, truly, she would insist, seeking the White House is not anything she’s thinking about. It may not be top of the mind at the moment, but at some point it will be. It’s important if — if Americans or if families across the country have any concerns, any questions, they should go to CDC.gov.

And we are consulting with allies and partners as well about all of the potential scenarios that might unfold in the days ahead. “There were a number of people she asked to engage Karine,” a source told the Post. As you might recall from recent history, the Hatch Act does not apply to the president and vice president. In both her prepared remarks to start the Nov. 2, 2022, briefing as well as in the Q&A portion with journalists, Jean-Pierre referred to "mega MAGA Republican officials," describing them at one point as politicians "who don't believe in the rule of law." Greene embraced an array of conspiracy theories before winning election, such as in November 2018 when she talked about the 9/11 terrorist attacks, referring to a “so-called” plane that crashed into the Pentagon.

She’s a Democratic political strategist.

But, obviously, that is always subject to change. Making sure people have access to healthcare, more people insured now than ever. Making sure that people don’t have to make decisions between poverty and getting the medicine that they need. But yes, it requires the President, the Vice President, but all of us, again, to lean in and make sure we’re working to pull people together and push back against that rhetoric that we do see, April.

So, we’re going to be — it’s going to be later to see cases go up. And so, look, we think there’s more work to do. We’re going to hear from this President this week about how he’s going to continue to lowers cost — right?

That’s what the President is going to focus on. And the President — since day one, you’ve heard him talk about his personal reaction to Charlottesville. Redeeming the soul of America is cent- — central to who Joe Biden is as a man and why he chose to run for president as a — as a candidate.

But when we’re talking about hateful rhetoric, when we’re talking about violence, we have to call that out. If there were a path to suspend Russia from the U.N. Security Council, we would pursue it immediately. And so we are focused on continuing to take actions to isolate Russia, including in international organizations, and hold Russia accountable, including through sanctions and enforcement actions we announced today, as you saw. But to your question, though — look, the President has been very engaged. This was — the government funding was the main priority that they discussed.

When we see violent rhetoric, we have to call that out. When we see physical intimidation or grotesque antisemitic remarks, we have to speak that out. And you saw that from the President’s statement when he — this President’s statement on Passover. He talked about action — taking action and making sure that we’re calling that out. And, of course, in the immediate aftermath of it, he picked up the phone and called Bibi Netanyahu.

And, you know, we are insisting that that happen, in addition to ensuring the safety and protection of the people of Rafah. So, you put all that together and I think the calculus of the Russians or the critics of Ukraine who say, “Time is on Russia’s side” — they’ve got it wrong. We believe that the structural dynamics of this conflict favor the country defending its own territory. We believe that occupation and invasion saps the will and vitality of a nation over time. And the President referred in his remarks earlier today to the reports of Ukrainian troops literally cheering in the trenches, watching on their phones, as the House passed the bill over the weekend.

She also “liked” a January 2019 Facebook post that called for “a bullet to the head” of Pelosi. House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy said talks should begin immediately on the massive spending cuts Republicans are seeking in exchange for raising the debt limit, but the Biden administration has equated that demand to holding the U.S. economy hostage. Dunn has supported Kirby’s ask, said the fourth source, but still Jean-Pierre has not relented, even after Kirby’s desire was publicly reported in January by Axios. It was during this time that she and Biden hit it off.

But behind the scenes, the administration across the board has worked relentlessly to address those concerns. We now have a significant number of ATACMS coming off the production line and entering U.S. stocks. And as a result, we can move forward with providing ATACMS while also sustaining the readiness of the U.S. armed forces. We are also providing Ukraine with new capabilities. I’m able to confirm, as you’ve heard from others, that in February the President directed his team to provide Ukraine with a significant number of ATACMS missiles for use inside Ukraine’s sovereign territory. That shipment started moving in March as part of the PDA that the President authorized on March 12th, and those missiles have arrived in Ukraine.

Anybody over the age of 50, anybody with chronic disease should get evaluated. Personally, as a physician, I think it’s very clear to me that anybody in their 60s or above should be treated. Like, there should be a good reason not to treat somebody. And there are rarely a good reason, meaning most people should be getting treated right now. One of the problems of — of home tests — really, the major problem — is that they don’t often get reported. So we do have, through this NIH effort called MakeMyTestCount.gov [MakeMyTestCount.org], I think, that people can report their tests.

So that is something that we’re going to continue to ac- — ask for Congress to act. We will not go into any further details about security policies that we have here. I know that this just happened, so we’re going to let Congress move forward with their processes on this. Point two, the United States is not now nor has it been at war with Russia.
