gayle, how will shifting away from pharmacy based distribution help the gap in covid-19 backs and rick -- covid-19 vaccination rates in lower income and people of color communities? dr. gayle: there probably isn't a one-size-fits-all. as several of these speakers have mentioned, the health centers are where people go. it is where they feel they have trusted providers. this is how we make sure people have options with people and places they trust. the fact that there will now be distribution in federally qualified health centers could have a huge impact for those who depend on those providers for their health, who trust those providers. those health centers are in the neighborhood. having a balanced approach that recognizes distributions to pharmacies makes sense for some people, but not all and make sure we are meeting people where they are and where they trust and making sure it is as convenient and accessible for those who are culturally competent. ms. velazquez: thank you. i yield back. >> the chair now recognizes mr. foster for five minutes. >> am i audible and visible here?

nobody could have matched rick grenell, who won a bipartisan vote to become also of all things, a diplomat, also togermany. waiting for the parliamentarian for minimum wage in the covid package. >> there hasn't been this much suspense about a senate staff decision in a long time. we thought we would hear last night what they would decide on this. it is still very much in the air. the debate continues whether that $15 minimum wage can be included or not. if it is included, expect some internal debate on the democratic side. it's not clear the democrats have votes for $50 minimum wage. would a joe manchin or kyrsten sinema stand in the way of this entire bill because they don't like the minimum wage structure? that would be something to see. >> indeed. david jolly, as well, there are some democrats who say, okay, you know, let republicans stand up and vote against this $1.9 trillion bill, which has so much support. they've really built local support for it, 60% flavorability or more, and peel off the minimum wage and have a second stand-alone vote on something as popular as the minimum wage and let republicans deal with that in 2022. >> yeah, andrea, i think garrett's

rick? what do you think of that? >> i hope that they are successful. this is a very important topic and democrats and republicans should understand in a post-covid world having our entire supply chain or allowing china to have leverage, having our supply chain in china, having the chinese have leverage over us on equipment that we need, on businesses, this is just a recipe for disaster in the future. we should learn from covid-19. we should learn that the chinese are manipulating and leveraging our local politicians, our universities. this is a very serious problem and the idea that jake sullivan and our cia nominee, bill burns, think about that, putting someone in charge of the agency that is already demonstrated for the past six years that he is cozying up to china, this is unacceptable. he should be rejected. we're going to have to get tougher nominees and tougher individuals within the biden administration if they want to convince us that they're going to be tough on china. elizabeth: ric grenell, great to see you. thanks for joining us. come back soon, okay? you're great on the show. >> thanks. elizabeth: coming up former louisiana governor bobby

rick scott of florida, welcome back. >> we will be here late tonight and early in the morning. shannon: explain to people what is happening, normally if you're going to have this $2 trillion covidbill it has to go through a series of votes, you have to go through a 60 vote protocol to get it moving but there is something else being done by democrats to move it with just majority votes leading to where we are tonight. what does it say to you about the ability of this white house, the democrats, to work across the aisle, to put together bipartisan, a bit of an unusual maneuver. >> they have no interest in talking to republicans. last year the senate passed five bills with republicans and democrats over 60 votes in every bill, the democrats this time have decided they are native and going to talk to us. the budget committee is now run by bernie sanders. he is going to put together a $2 trillion package that does little for covid-19. it is liberal priorities and here is what they have done, nothing for american families, but they said they don't believe in providing healthcare to a newborn, they don't believe in opening schools even after the teachers have the vaccine, democrats do

rick >> yeah. what a great discussion you were all having look at week to date of 10s and 30s. we are guns hot. we have traded up to new highs for the cycle post covid 136 on 10s and let's stick with that 10-year for a minute. open that chart up to march of 2016 how many weeks have we be talking about the potential to get up to those double bottoms in 2012 and '16? here we are. that's 136 zoom, zom, zoom it back to the 2012 bottom in july 138 and here we are do we have to stop here? no the pause is significant maybe it's a place if you're looking for 8s to rise to take profits but maybe if you're the wrong way we start to trade above this issue nervous, need to be nervous. we could get up to 160 quick 30-year is more aggressive now january of '20 on 30-year bonds, 2013 puts them up a dozen basis points on the week and the spreads of course are steepening with 10s to 2s the widest in 4 years and tyler you asked what's more important, inflation, the economy, why are interest rates going up duds it matter spending 700 billion a year servicing a $30 trillion debt what other budget is that money coming from? stimulus is fine doesn't mean we have to worry

"the black list eventually became especially in hollywood, and yet it is becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish the blacklist policy from the emerging current treatment of right-wingers." tomi?

covid started. the descriptions i get from friends and colleagues in that city are awful for how they describe the downtown area and what's its become. rick said this. >> we have a governor who shut down the beaches. now, this is not part of science. we have a governor who plays politics but we also have a state that is completely run by one party. if you want to have the insiders from one political party and the well connected constantly get what they want you have to keep electing the same people over and over. and that's what we have in california. >> bill: let's see whether or not that democratic string is broken or not. the point about the beaches. here in new york we can't go inside into a restaurant. not allowed. but on a beach or outdoors. >> dana: outdoor dining. >> bill: where else could there be more social distancing? how does it go over in that state? >> san francisco, we wish we had more social distancing from some of the people walking around town these days. the major problem is this. when you have the one-party state. when you have this kind of irrational covid restrictions, that leads to a kind of huberous and belief on

covid-19 relief. keep in mind we spent $4 trillion throughout the pandemic? can we understand what ricktt just said that we canterbury ourselves in the will future. it this is money we don't have. we don't know what it's like you go into overdraft and money on frnget as a country we should collectively be feel the stress. what i also thought was key was this guy named joe manchin, as bernie sanders says every democrat is going to go along with this. bernie sanders probably doesn't know how to get ahold of joe manchin. he was sitting in west virginia and saw the vice president of the united states a couple days ago giving an interview to the local station saying we're going to go without republicans. and she says i saw that interview is. i couldn't believe it. no one called me. try to find a bipartisan pathway forward. that doesn't sound like a guy sign off on a socialist who makes sure everyone gets their money and the rich pay their fair share. steve: maybe we will end up actually seeing some bipartisan on negotiation. brian: my hope. steve: the it republicans are 600 billion. the demo

progress of course, against covid, and you see these large stimulus plans being floated not only in the u.s. but other large economies as well. back to you. >> thanks, rickeye on drop box today. shares are down a touch despite a beat on the top and bottom line more paid users. better than expected revenue per user they did guide a little light on full-year revenue. we do have some price target increases though jpm goes from 29 to 34 the stock is down. we're back in a moment it's not “pretty good or nothing.” it's not “acceptable or nothing.” and it's definitely not “close enough or nothing.” mercedes-benz suvs were engineered with only one mission in mind. to be the best. in the category, in the industry... in the world. lease the gla 250 suv for just $399 a month at your local mercedes-benz dealer. mercedes-benz. the best or nothing. so you're a small business, or a big one. you were thriving, but then... oh. ah. okay. plan, pivot. how do you bounce back? you don't, you bounce forward, with serious and reliable internet. powered by the largest gig speed network in america. but is it secure? sure it's secure. and even if the power goes down, your connect

but also his performance during covid has may be part of people of importance, and they feel like they are headed in the right direction. it is worth pointing out the ricka presidential plan, and he is the head of the national republican territorial committee in charge of getting republican control in 2022, those numbers are not good for him, but the bigger picture is on his covid and what is happening down in florida. due to another jumping off point as the headline in the national review that says that andrew cuomo is everything the prosecutor ron desantis use them as being. there is a difference in how ron desantis was perceived versus andrew cuomo. como is lionized for his response to virus as ron desantis was bill and eyes, but when you look at the numbers is actually the other way around, let's put this on the screen for new york at the population 19.4 million people, 46,000, almost 47,000 have died of coronavirus florida has a larger population thousand of your death and it has been open the entire time. >> yes, it is pretty amazing and the stories that are painted ron desantis as being cavalier and risking people's lives now have been turned aro

rick scott from capitol hill. the discussion about a federal minimum wage increase will be a part of the covid relief negotiationshappening. resident mind has included a federal minimum wage increase in his $1.9 trillion package. republicans are expected to meet with the president later today and they have not included an increase in the federal minimum wage in their compromised package. we will see where this comes out in the end this week. we are asking you -- would you support an increase in the federal minimum wage. this is joe out of tulsa, oklahoma. go ahead. caller: no, i would not support the $15 pay raise. i am on social security. if we get the $15 minimum-wage, every necessity will go up. therefore, the people on social security are not going to have much money to take care of their groceries and things that are absolutely necessary. every necessity will go up if minimum-wage goes up. people that were on minimum wage, the rent will go up, probably our utilities will even go up. everything goes up when the wage goes up. i saw that when my husband was in the military paid when they got a raise, all the th

first, though, rick santelli new home sales >> yes, good morning january new home sales maybe one of the hottest sectors that was least affected, actually enhanced in many ways by covidsted annualized units. that is better-than-expected and sees a very nice positive revision, from 842,000 originally, december final jumps up to 885 thousand j you to give folks an idea. this is the one sector pre covid the numbers were smaller we're 774,000 in january of '20. we reached a million in september revised lower. all that is treasury yields because they keep zoom, zoom, zooming to the upside >> look at that, endorsing j&j for emergency ruse mech terrell has a lot of details. most of them are good, meg >> they are, sure. the briefing documents released ahead of a meeting of outside advisers scheduled for friday reemphasizing the efficacy after the single shot of the j&j vaccine. show out this graph that shows the comparison between the vaccine and placebo group. the cases are leveling off, really after two weeks you see that protection start to kick in compared with the orange line which is the sorry, those are switched the blue line should be switched you can see the vaccine

february, before covid, so this number really pops us out, and it follows 74.5, and it is the best level since february so we're making some progress. back to you, david >> okay, thank you, rick of quantumscape there up in the premarket despite posting a loss in the first response going public. phil lebeau has more. >> let's bring in jagdeep singh, the ceo of quantumscape, jagdeep, thanks for joining us this morning you reported a loss yesterday but that is not really what the market is focused on they're focused on the two important developments that you announced yesterday, including the development of prototypes for multi-layer solid-state battery cells. put this into perspective for investors, how important it is that this development goes forward, with these multi-layer cells. >> good morning, phil. that's a good question so first of all, i want to say there is a lot more work to be done, but having said that, this is an incredibly important announcement, so in december, we announced results from our single layer cells, so the single layer cells of course have all of chemistry that goes into the batteries, from the anode and the solid state separator and the results you

covid-19 symptons two months before identified on heels of announcement it is tremendously unlikely coronavirus leaped from a lab in wuhan, many people do not believe that, at all, meanwhile senators jash hawley rickat to see you this morning. thank you so much for being here, it is important you are doing what you are doing because we to me in january of 2020, the world health organization tweeted out coronavirus cannot be transmitted to human-to-human this is what ccp told us, so chinese communist party told the world health organization that the coronavirus is not transmissible the who rolls over, tells the world not transmissible in fact could not be more wrong. so what is going on with the world health organization in your view? >> well they clearly not world health organization they are just a puppet for the communist party in china that is all they are, whatever they say the world health organization puts out. look at what they did they wait a year to even go do any investigation in wuhan i called on them do investigation last february took one year do you think china might have covered anything else do any of us trust you communist china we don't what this says while we are biggest donor t

bill would amend the met rick for allocating state and local aid to further disadvantaged rural communities by accounting for both population and unemployment, unlike in previous covid legislation. even worse, this bill includes $30 billion in federal transit administration grants and specifies that $26.1 billion must be spent in urban areas while only $280.9 million can be spent in rural communities. this is a 99% to 1% split. again, it's $26.1 billion for urban areas, and only $2 0.9 million for rural areas. democrats were so generous in this bailout that they were able to spare rural communities a whopping $10 million nature in fta grants than what they allocated for arts and humanities. fta grants that has nothing to do with covid. essentially the same as spent on rural communities. the house markup of the bill just over a week ago, i offered an amendment that would have reallocated this $270 million that democrats want to spend on arts and humanities, instead invest in rural education, including broadband. sadly, the amendment was defeated because not a single democrat on that committee could bring themselves to put the needs of rural education over subsidizing
