governor baker: good afternoon. today we are going to talk about our long-term plans for covid-19 testing here in massachusetts and new announcements to make testing more accessible for people and talk about significant shipments of personal protective aquifment that arrived in massachusetts. first, we will provide our daily update on hospitalizations. as of yesterday, we conducted er 410,000 tests with over 8,500 new tests reported yesterday. and tests were reported for all tests that came back yesterday and that is within the range we have been seeing over the past few days. as we said before, that positive rate has come down significantly from where we were a month ago where it was hovering in the 20's and 30's. 26 newer hospitalizations for covid-19 yesterday but over 3,000 residents in hospitals due to covid-19 that need serious medical care. our hospitals have been able to withstand the this. massachusetts still remains one of the hardest-hit states and many data points have been declining which is and they de

baker: no. >> last question. gov. baker: say again? reporter: under the guidelines, colleges and universities are allowed to reopen. do you think they should? gov. baker: well, it's mostly reopening for purposes of what i would describe as sort of lab work and research with guidelines, ok. both they have to abide by the general guidelines and they have to abide by industry industry-specific guidelines. the conversation about the fall, the discussion there, is the conversation about the fall, the discussion there, is ongoing. and i would expect that to get resolved at some point over the course of the next four or five weeks, but that hasn't been, that hasn't been answered yet. reporter: what are the options -- gov. baker: say again. reporter: for businesses that are reopening, what is their testing option? will they be expected to send employees elsewhere? gov. baker: i think what i would say first of all is a lot of that would be laid out in the federal application. but at this point in time, there are sort of four levels of testing w

baker: good morning. i want to gov. baker: good morning. want to start by recognizing the toll this virus has taken on so many people in the commonwealth. i want to talk about who is behind all of the numbers that we discuss in this room every day. nurses, doctors, and all the frontline medical workers, some second doing their job and isolated from their families. td isolated from their family. first responders, essential workers, d.c.f. social workers, bus and train drivers, and many other public servants, who, as always, did what they had to do in order to serve us. but in some cases, suffered terrible loss as a result. furloughed or laid off workers who despite coming in early and working extra shifts now, by no fault of their own, are left wondering when that job comes back. everyone suffering under the fear of the unknown amid this pandemic. everyone who sacrificed a wedding or major moment in life, went without holding their loved ones at the exact time they needed to be held the most. and everyone who lost a friend, brother, sister,

see what it stephen baker and "hop, skip, go". you have a vision where some of the highways perhaps even the four oh five in l.a. would be a bypass or a walking path. or return to nature. >> guest: right spirit think it will be a while before the four or five becomes a bike path. yes, helsinki is doing this, the idea is if you have more people using -- not using cars, using other options to move around, then you won't need as many parking lots. the county of los angeles has an immense amount of parking at think it is five times the area of paris in parking lots in san francisco i mean in los angeles. that's in a norma's opportunity for parks, schools, swimming pools, malls, whatever you want it does not have to be like that. in helsinki, they have this adventure that's called mobility as a service. the idea is you open an app on his cell phone tells you how to get someplace and has all these connections with got a lot of transit in helsinki. it is all paid for with the monthly subscription. the idea is if you can use information t

next, jean baker leads from her biography. she then is interviewed by an author, christina page, and responds to audience questions at this event from 2011, recorded at the tournament museum in new york city. [chatter] newman >> good evening, everybody. thank you for your patience. in case you didn't know, we moved into this space last week, so we are playing with some technical difficulties. we are glad you're all here and i hope you all found a drink, and again, i appreciate your patience. of course, welcome to the lower east side tenement museum. my name is amanda leiden. curator, i am delighted to see you all here to see jean baker, author of "margaret sanger: a life of passion". she will be in conversation this evening with cristina page. we often think of margaret brooklynbeginnings in in the opening of that family planning and birth control clinic in brownsville. she started that clinic after being a nurse here on the lower east side. here with the cohort of, goldman, who we will be discussing in two weeks. today's talk

let's speak now to conservative mp and former brexit minister steve baker.osition now? he and the government, downing street, are saying he's done nothing wrong. i think it's a question of when he has to go now, not. i think his position is untenable. it's because of dominic's slogans around these rules that mums and dads, grannies and grandpa's across the country, when i felt they had to stay at home if covid—i9 got into theirfamilies stay at home if covid—i9 got into their families and they too care about their children, but they knew they must stay at home for seven days for the first person, 14 days for the others, and now it turns out they could have been driving around they could have been driving around the country with symptoms perhaps four hours to get to a position of more convenient childcare. this requires a more broad interpretation of latitude in the rules, it makes it untenable for dominic to stay under my real objection here is we are simply burning through capital co—opting members of the cabinet with a lines trying to defend the indefensibl

baker, this becoming age of mobility. you write did that so this book is about. what you mean about that pretty. john: it's an information revolution. we've been watching it for the last half of century. it spread into computers and overwhelmed media and advertising in the spread into telephones and we are carrying on the internet wherever we went. and now in this next stage, the internet and the mobile machines we will be caring for they will be carrying us around so i think it is going to be an age in which all kinds of new choices going to surface for us and we are going to be able to, go a lot of places and will have a big effect our cities . and at same time, companies and city governments are going to be able to manage our movements and that will raise all kinds of questions about privacy. so is just the next stage of the internet revolution. it. >> imagine a scenario, los angeles, 2028 . what should be expect. >> one thing about information revolution is you can't bet on certain things. my co-author, at the turn-of-the-century are the year 2000 and we were

same way with the bakers. they weren't that interested in politics, but they were sort of on the front lines of this evangelical political culture. >> i think that's one way this story can be used today. throughout most of their careers jim and tammy were very politically naive. they did not start with much of a political agenda at all. by the time -- by the late '70s they have a big following, and they have -- they become attractive to politicians, because they control a big audience. and so baker goes to the carter white house. he rides on air force one with jimmy carter. he interviews ronald reagan on camera when reagan's running in 1980, and in one sense you can say, well, they're politically important. but the problem is if you start there and say these people are primarily political actors, you misunderstand them entirely. they're not primarily political actors. the politics was a secondary -- they -- the thing baker loved about politics was the celebrity value of it. right? who doesn't want to ride on a

that's when i did the jim and tammy faye baker biography. i think your mic is off. >> yes i think your mic is off. [indiscernible] >> oh so i need to start over? thank you. >> and randy roberts is the professor at the history department at purdue university, he is particularly interested in african-american in sports history. he's written biographies of mike tyson, john wayne, charles lindbergh, joe lewis, jack dempsey, ronald reagan, joe namath, a team biography of the pittsburgh steelers. his most recent biographical works as blood brothers, the fatal friendship of malcolm x and muhammad ali, and a season in the sun, the rise of mickey mantle. could you tell us about your interest in this genre? >> this is perfect for me, political history and biography, popular culture. i have seen myself as working at the intersection between political history, political culture, and popular culture. i wrote about performers, like you. actors, athletes. but i've never been interested in writing a book about an athlete who was just an athlete, or an actor

today steve baker and very vigorously indeed. today steve bakerand a very vigorously indeed. a string of other conservative mps have been saying that needs to consider his position and we will bring you the latest from downing street, butjust to say, we saw dominic cummings leaving his home surrounded by reporters a little earlier on. he has now travelled from his home to downing street and is now in number ten at the moment so we will bring you the latest from there as it comes into us. china's foreign minister, wang yi, has warned that certain us interests are pushing for ‘a new cold war‘ following the fallout of the coronavirus crisis. speaking at a press conference in beijing, the country's most senior diplomat said china and the united states would lose from confrontation, and insisted both sides must find a way for peaceful co—existence. translation: it has come to our attention that some politicalforces in the us are taking china us relations hostage and pushing our two countries to the brink of a new cold war. china remains prepared to work with the us in the spirit o

congress baker increase the pressure on the israelis goading them to call. it's going to take some really good faith affirmative effort on the part of our good friends in israel and if we don't get it and if we can't get it quickly i have to tell you mr levine that that. everybody over there should know that the telephone number is 120-245-6141 extension 4 when you're serious about peace call us. the american strategy worked and israeli and arab delegations attended the peace conference in the spanish capital madrid in october 1901. although p.l.o. leader yasser arafat was not invited he was well represented by palestinian negotiators from gaza and the west part. kept a tight rein on the palestinian negotiators and they made sure they told the party line and a shout of 50000. well that the shuttle it was shot at their vision when i came out of madrid the speech delivered by hyde that obvious chef in madrid was written by hand and i strongly and the bill. and i come honey it contributed to it but in the end it was faxed to tunis and we waited till morning unt

president george bush and his secretary of state james baker decided that was high time to resolve the problems in the middle east they devised a formula to bring the reluctant israel to the negotiating table i think bush was was really annoyed and he he and baker came up with this idea which i thought was actually quite quite smart and said you can have the loans but only if you agree to a complete freeze on settlements because we are not going to subsidize policies in the west bank that we oppose in the u.s. congress baker increase the pressure on the israelis goading them to call it's going to take some really good faith affirmative effort on the part of our good friends in israel and if we don't get it and if we can't get it quickly i have to tell you mr levine that that. everybody over there should know that the telephone number is 120-245-6141 extension 4 when you're serious about peace call us. the american strategy worked and israeli and arab delegations attended the peace conference in the spanish capital madrid in october 1901. although p.l.o. leader yasser arafat was not inv

. >> massachusetts governor charlie baker held a press briefing. he announced his plans to expand coronavirus testing as it plans to go into phase one of reopening next week. he was joined by the state hhs secretary, who spoke about the pediatric multisystem inflammatory syndrome, which is tied to the virus.

sydney powell has alleged baker may have been the one who leaked it.re's communications saying he was close to ignacius who published the information in "the washington post." durham's supposedly investigating the leak. that was classified information, it looks like to me, so to there may have been crimes committed targeting general flynn. in addition to the crimes we're seeing in the evidence of the documents this week. and i want to know who's responsible for the cover-up here. these documents have been in the possession of the fbi for years, evidently. these page, strzok e-mails have been withheld from judicial watch. or in fact, they are sitting on right now the fbi has 8,000 pages of page-strzok e-mails they've yet to release to judicial watch because they only can release them at the rate of 500 a month. we'll be getting them in the next administration. lou: isn't it clear that wray running a cover-up? and, by the way, doing so under the auspices of president trump's attorney general william barr. it is time for somebody to start leading the damn

the number of french choice chains is growing and there are a whole areas in germany without real bakers but now help is on its way with something called the bread off road expedition vehicle we join them for 2 or that was before the restrictions due to the corona pandemic and you can hop aboard as well if you like right now. and they can only look and his elite troops take heavy equipment into what they call the bread desert comprende them that their mission to supply this thinly populated region good decent great. bakery situation brandenberg a serious more and more small craft businesses are closing down. that forces people to depend on discount retailers and i wouldn't say that the discounters threat is all that good. something had to be done for. the objective of today's decent a small town of just under 6000 north of ben and even here freshly baked bread is a rarity this is a job for the bread as it expedition vehicle and once used by the military in neutral switzerland where the need was probably not quite as an agent. to try to help the swiss have 168 of these vehicles about one

done better go also owns a stationary bakery in berlin but he never actually trained to be a baker for most 20 years he worked in the just sticks in australia switzerland and points in asia. he also met his wife in asia in 2015 they decided to open if they could together. i was really really surprised how germans love the outbreak i was like wow if we do open the big theme then you know that is fine then this is a different lifestyle is something where we can both work together because in a previous job he was always he was the great we know so now this is like you know before all of us can do it together as a team the great desert expedition vehicle accomplishes its mission it's on the road in brandenburg for 70 to 80 days a year mostly at markets and festivals these and seems to appreciate the fresh bread services while they look so because unfortunately the last real baker fresh bread closed shop over a year ago that was a shame all we've got now are the industrial bakeries on supermarkets there aren't that many bakeries left here in the region so it's a good way to supply. well wit

ave a phenomenal robert: but as peter baker writes inner the "new york times" for a president is whoked s legacy on an economic record that was sedded by the in crisis m on may be the best way tole salvage his best chances for re-election evenf the death toll estimates have more than doubled. andolls show the public i not ready to restore normal life. so the question in my notebook is this, what's nex what does it all mean? and what will congress do? we turn tone of the best reporters on capitol hill, susan davis, congressial correspondent for national public radio, to the author of a revealing new buy yolfi, molly ball, national political correspondent for "time"ma zine and author of "pelosi" on the speaker of the housms to peter baker chief white house correspondent ofhenew york times." and toluse olorunnipa white house reporter for "the washington post." you've reported all week on the president clashing with health ex-perpts, with scientist - experts with scientists, what does it look like behind the scene? >> in response to the coronavirus we are seeing this major shift. the pri

michael baker, professor of public health at the university of otago.s an epidemiologist and a member of the new zealand ministry of health's technical advisory group, and he has been advising prime minister ardern on the response to covid19. welcome to democracy now! thank you for staying up so late. i'm holding the front page of -- - the york times" wholole front page lists huhunds and hundreds of names. we have under 5% of the population, but more than one quarter of the debts in the world. can you talk about what new zealand can teach, not only the united states, brazil, and far more populous countries, but what you recognized early o on n what you did, dr. baker? >> greetings from wellingtonon. it is a great pleleasure toto bn your program. i think when you look a across e globe and how difffferent countrtries have responded, i think one of the main messages is to respond decisively anand have t that combinationn of good scscnce and gogood l leadership. and coununtries that h have succeeded have done this. the case o of new z zealand, wih the same

peter baker, i don't know why i was shocked but i was to see trump go after fauci, and it is a similar pattern. fox news primetime anchors warm up the water for him and he dives right in. any fallout today on that attack against fauci's testimony before congress yesterday? >> well look, i think you're right, dr. fauci has credibility with the public that the president doesn't. all the polls show that many, many more americans trust what dr. fauci is telling them than trust what the president is telling them. i think that for one thing it irritates the president and for another thing dr. fauci is the one sort of standing in the way of the approach that the president would like to take which is a speedy and wholesale re-opening of the country as fast as possible. now, the president has to make decisions based on not just what one set of advisers tell him, what president trump's aides would tell you he has to look at the big picture, the whole picture, the economy and the impact on jobs, unemployed, on poverty and businesses. the president has to take all these things into account which i

that would be a very thin binder if that's what the plan was. >> peter baker, you also cover this beat, and while it's not dispositive, it does stand to reason had there been a plan, seems to me they would have mentioned it to jill's point, a time or two. do you think whenever this thing is tomorrow is an attempt at a pivot to run on a plan? >> well, it's a striking conflict and messages of course as ron mentioned. the message up until now was who could have predicted this would happen, nobody saw this coming, when we opened the cover, we discovered it was empty, the obama people hadn't left us any medical equipment, the testing system they left behind was broken, we were surprised when we discovered that so we're trying to catch up from square one. today's mess saage is no we kne this was coming, we did a plan, we were ready. it seems in conflict to the message to the last two and a half months or so. the exercise we have written about, the question is of course why had they -- they did this plan last year to year before, i can't remember the exact date, that they were not prepared or

joining me now, kristen welker, white house correspondent peter baker, the senior scholar at johns hopkins health and security and leon panetta at the pentagon and cia. kristen, president trump backing down under pressure for the talk he was going to dismantle the white house task force. the task force that included all of those health care officials, now saying also that more lives will be lost with the reopening, but that is what we're going to have to deal with, the price we're paying i guess for reopening, for returning to normal. how does he weigh that balance, saying more people will die? >> andrea, i think it underscores the pressure the president feels as though he's under to try to get the economy and parts of the country back up and running again. this is a president who was planning to run on re-election on the economy, to tout the strong economy, and now deep concerns within this administration and within his campaign frankly that this crisis will undoubtedly undermine that argument, and that's in part why he feels so much urgency to try to turn the corner, and in part why you

i agree with steve baker, i think his position is untenable and i think he has to go.what downing street have said, he acted reasonably and legally, so the problem? the problem is you cannot have one lover downing st and another for everybody else. people all over the country have children, but they have had to self—isolate with them and they haven‘t been able to provide childcare for them, this is not one law for one person and another for absolutely everybody else and there is a degree of hubris and arrogance in this. it goes beyond acceptability. as i have said, ithink beyond acceptability. as i have said, i think his position is untenable and i think to maintain the credibility of the administration, he has to go. do you think he broke the rules or bend the rules ? think he broke the rules or bend the rules? broke, bent, it is neither here nor there, the fact of the matter is that there are a team of people who set the rules, we and then have to abide by those rules. i am sitting in a office in isolation, why am am sitting in a office in isolation, whyami am sittin

. >> you know, peter baker, we were trying to brainstorm today. it's like, okay, what under sort of a normal set of circumstances, what would -- let's take all of the grievances the president has, but how would it be a different way to respond to him? he's not happy with congress. he hasn't had one single meeting during this pandemic of the four congressional leaders at the white house. he has issues at north carolina. how about inviting the governor and mayor to the white house, talk them over. he seems to be more interested in searching for wedge issues and not searching for solutions. >> look, this is a president who prefers conflict. we've known this. we've covered this for 3 1/2 years plus the election. he's not a conciliator, consensus builder. he is a divider. it has been successful for him. he divides the country, the political class. he forces them to bend to his will as much as he can. sometimes he's successful, sometimes he's not. that's the modus operandi. he hasn't brought in congress. certainly not a bipartisan leadership of congress

peter baker, chief white house correspondent. also with us tonight, stephanie ruhle, senior business correspondent at nbc news, a veteran of the investment banking and business world and the host of the 9:00 a.m. hour each day on this network. annie karni, let's go back up to the top of the broadcast, back up to the start of this day when we woke up to news of a positive case in the innermost circle around the president, however much he says he wasn't around him very much at all. serious question. other than the boss, talk about protocols. how seriously inside the white house does the white house take these precautions? >> it is changing now because of this. now they're going to go to a daily system. but i spoke to people inside the white house who were frustrated with the testing and the precautions that were being taken. inside the west wing, people who would interact directly with the president were being tested regularly. but people who work in the old executive office building, which is on the white house campus, told me the

baker wanted to be to create a christian disneyland.e built heritage usa and then in 1986 they had 6 million visitors. it was the third biggest theme park after disneyland and disney world. you had all of these innovations, and they revolve around media. they revolve around the talk shows and satellite networks. this is kind of what built them up to the point where the sex and money scandal mattered, but that is the entry point for most people and the service you can do is sort of pull it back and tell that story that leads up to that. then i think the third layer is to further step back and say, why does this matter? why does any of this matter? what does it say about american culture and american religion? >> did other evangelicals pattern themselves after him with satellite network and television? >> they did. actually, he was with pat robertson before he launched his own ministry and helped create the 700 club. then he was with paul crouch and southern california and helped create the trinity broadcasting network. there were many co

baker -- i'm sorry, dr. harris, let me start with you first. this was the testimony yesterday about the timeframe for bringing a vaccine to market, for it to be useable for people from dr. bright, who was dismissed from the administration, who was the head of trying to create such a vaccine. take a listen. >> a lot of optimism is swirling around a 12 to 18-month timeframe if everything goes perfectly. we've never seen everything go perfectly. my concern is if we rush too quickly and consider cutting out critical steps, we may not have a full assessment of the safety of that vaccine. >> you know, dr. harris, nbc news did a fact check on this. coronavirus vaccine, trump says, could come out this year. this sort of happy talk he's doing about a vaccine. experts say he would need a miracle to be right. it would take over a year. it's going to take quite a long time. i was talking earlier with steve about this idea, this humiliating impact of watching this president operate around the world. we're not even in the global -- we're not even working tog
