joining us now for reaction ufc president one and only dana white.idea how big of a fan i am for the ufc, octagon. i trained my own way and i'm glad you were with "the new york times." how are you going to open up at the crowd? >> god, i don't know how long that will"tme be. it will depend on testing. if the level of testing keeps going up.om the president was talking about a tab you would lick, and it would tell you immediately whether you had it or not. i think it will take something like that before we can bring fans back. >> sean: you know you said something, "the new york times," interesting you said, oh, they haven't covered this sport ever. then they are attacking you and then they get their clicks. now they are doing two stories a week? you told them, you kind of unloaded f this guy. i don't care what they think? why should you care by the way? >> first of all, we were trying to figure out solutions to the problems and how do you bring sports back faithfully and health and safety and issue every week. when we were leading up to these events,

and congratulations to dana white, ufc. >> reporter: ufc 249 in jacksonville.s an eerie sight there at the fight. center staff, media and presenters had their temperatures checked at the door. the ringside tables and chairs for those that were working the fight, including for the broadcasters, they were spaced apart, as you can see, and there were no fans, no crowd noise to drown out the sound of the blows. so very different feel to this. multiple fighters admitting afterwards that they could hear former ufc champ daniel cormier announcing the fight for viewers at home, and they used his analysis to gain an advantage. and the main event, justin gaethje defeated tony ferguson by tko to gain the intervictim light weight title. they are scheduled to have events in jacksonville the next two weekends, so we'll see if they go on as planned. before i toss it back, happy mother's day, especially to you, christi paul. you're an incredible woman and it shows in those great kids of yours. they are a reflection of you. happy mother's day to my mom, jane, and my wife claire

plus, we'll discuss a path forward for sports when we're joined by ufc president, dana white.d to think of a sport that has such close contact joining us to talk about the market today, barbara is still with us. first to you mike on just the continued resilience i didn't see a major catalyst for the market though people still continue to point to new headlines around states and countries reopening like california. like new york. like negermany and hong kong. >> right just really the focus on the incremental movement toward reopening that seems like it can buoy the market on a given day but no real hard news on when it's going to happen so i don't think you had a great explanation. if you view it to consolidate that big rally in april, it makes more sense to see this >> we've got earnings out. electronic arts. let's go to josh for those numbers. josh >> not clear if that's comparable to the 98 cents the street was looking for bookings coming at 1.21 billion. the street's estimate was 1.19 billion. looking at the q1 forecast, 93 cents. again, made it clear whether that's compara

big deal it's going to rely a lot on testing actually that's what you have see president actually dana white the president of you see said that it would rely on testing a lot because that he kind of made the blueprint he says for other sports leagues even though they are team sports let's say other than you know tennis and golf and racing at all that but what they would have to do and take a listen to what he had to say afterwards ok it's different we live in a different world than we did 2 months ago and. you know the bottom line is that the system worked and the longer this goes the better the testing technology is going to get and the faster it will get and. you know we're going to prove by next saturday. that professional sports can come back safely so there you go come back safely and you know they disappear so says a guy who makes a $1000000.00 or more for the right and he's quoted on 3 shows and. so he has a dog in the for sure and that doesn't take away the fact that i think he's right that certain sports without the fans are not as dangerous exactly not a health risk if you were to

bringing in fighters from around the world you say it reinforces the safety protocols but for my to dana white stood next to every fighter yesterday including to caesar caesar how safe can it really be what the one thing we have to bear in mind is that you know of course everybody is susceptible to corona virus but the fitter and healthier individuals are far less susceptible to being taken down by. fortunately everybody in that hotel is in tip top condition they're all parasites in our well and healthy and well fed and. so i think you know that the minimum impact on everybody in that so obviously the precautions will be taken to make sure that that no further issues arise you know getting jacker out of the host hotel and isolate them separately is why it's going to i think you know what this will do is because the usa are going to continue putting a schedule together this will now reinforce the safety protocols going forward step fighters getting tested before they get on the plane to the venue might be the next stage and the parian not down to kind of an easy will the fight has be rusty than

forward in what they're calling the new normal i guess we've been hearing that yes the president dana white and he spanned to have a fight in ireland do you think that's going to happen. well i think the reason for that of course is they want to try at the moment because there's a pool teams a quarantine periods for most people traveling kind of inter country at the moment in truck country i think the idea is he's going to have the fights island so it can like the hotel they used to isolate for that jacksonville arena they are going to try and isolate people onto an island and bring them from overseas what will work or not i've got my doubts at the moment i think the logistics of very very difficult but you know the u.f.c. they've always been the scruffy cousins if you like of the sports landscape since they were founded in 1993 and they seem to be able to find a way but at the moment we're just going to see how these 8 days roll outs and what transpires from these 3 events other d.c. think e.s.e. as far as happening behind those do you think they'll inspire other combat sports like boxing

. >> dana: kristin fisher his life at the white house for us, thank you. i want to see if eric custer, i want to see if we have the trump tweet from last night, not positive about that but i want to get your reaction when you saw the tweet, the looting starts, the shooting starts, i might be paraphrasing that a little bit, but you heard what kristin fisher said that the president tweeting what seems like a clarification of what he intended to mean by that. what did you take away from it? >> that president trump was implying that looters should be shot. president trump is very direct in his hateful words. he says what he means, but then oftentimes he gets cold on the carpet and tries to backtrack. he wrote exactly what he meant, which is why twitter flagged that post, flagged that tweet as hate speech. and something that is promoting violence. because it does promote violence. and trump has had several speeches, for example speaking to a group of police officers in the stadium, he mentioned taking their hands and putting them in the car and knocking him aga

white house? why is the president -- >> dana: we have to get jesse in here, juan. jesse watters. i can give you the floor. i do think people are being quite responsive. people on the fringes but people are trying to figure it out in a responsible way. you can trust americans to do that. >> greg: right. sorry. >> jesse: yes, i will be quick because i know we went a little longer. the american people allowed the government to lock us down. he was a consent of the governed -- it was a consent of the governed. we are going to let you sit in your house, not going to go to work, close your private business but at the end the day, we are not peasants. we are not going to sit here

. >> dana: i know that we are running out of time so i would say that when the white house decided to end the daily briefing that they were doing and they have a new communications team in place, new communications director, new press secretary, that they've made this pivot so they can figure out a way to start leaning forward into the recovery which we knew was going to have to come at some point. i think what the president has been saying and he said it about the vaccine, that when you're in this position as commander in chief you can't so much care about the politics of it. he can play a little bit in that sandbox but he has to focus on the facts because the facts are going to end up telling the story and allow him to make a full put it that i think that's one of the reasons he wanted to get out of town today and he does better when he is not in washington. he likes to get out into the country, as most presidents do. >> jesse: he sure does. last word, dagen mcdowell >> dagen: trying to highlight the good works of private businesses and corporations. good luck getting the democrats

so the draconian measures we're going to have to let go. >> juan: dana, the white house said today theyoing to follow some cdc guidelines. what we know is that they want to get things open. i think everybody wants things open safely. the question then arises, if we go in that direction, should they be ignoring the fact that so many states in fact have a rising number of cases even as they are reopening. >> dana: it's possible that the cdc guidelines might have been too strict or too stringent based on the new information that they have. it's a new data point every hour on the coronavirus. greg just pointed out a good one about being outside. now there's questions about, is it dangerous to wear a mask while you're exercising. every day you find out something new so i think may be that stories a little overwritten that the white house is not using those particular guidelines. obviously we are using guidelines. i want to say that the woman in dallas, as greg said, i'll always remember where i was when i saw that woman. to stick up for her principles and see her released. i admire it, i rea

this is a scotts yard. >> dana: military leaders today unveiling the official flag of the newly formed space force right next to president trump. kristin fisher is live at the whitemore. >> dana for the first time in 72 years the official flag of a new u.s. military service was just unveiled to the commander in chief. defense secretary mark esper and the space force's chief of operations present at the flag to president trump in the the oval office. tomorrow the space force will be dedicating the launch of an atlas side rocket. the creation of the space force is just one way that the trump administration is trying to secure american dominance in space. remember, president trump directed nassau to return american astronauts to the surface of the moon by 2024 under the artemis program and, just a few weeks of nasa astronauts hitching rides into space on russian rockets, they are poised to become the first to fly on a private company spacecraft. spacex's crew dragon. and this is a huge deal because it is the first time in nearly a decade that nasa has attempted to launch astronauts, american astronauts from u.s. soil. i'm told that it is one of the hottest and harde

. >> dana: but he has been. the whitese's been having him do a lot of talk radio all across the nation. they think he's been great. i take your point. it wasn't easy to hear everybody during the remote. the dog that was barking and also lamar alexander's cute dog that was sitting behind him. what did you take away from the hearing? >> juan: dogs. i find it entertaining because i think it's very real. you get the sense that these are human beings. we see them in their official setting of a senate hearing and you think it's just some guy in a suit. in response to what jesse was saying, i was taken by the idea that you had republicans like lamar alexander and mitt romney saying hey, the testing has just not been sufficient and nothing to celebrate. especially if we are looking towards reopening schools in the fall. we don't have that in place. fauci was very clear. we don't have any kind of regiment or testing or any kind of way that we can assure the chance at the university of tennessee for example i think that's what they

our chief correspondent, dana, you covered the white house a capitol hill for years and you cover crisis of the administrati administration. have you seen a situation where a white house is flat out screwed up something. have you seen them spent resources wasted on this kind of thing? this blame game instead of dealing with this huge problem. >> look, all of this is unprecedented from the virus and the administration handling or not handling of this. that's an important thing to say over and over again. as for the president not wearing a mask saying that he's taking this drug and urging staying quote on quote, "liberate." this is the president turning back on what he calls wartime president to running for reelection president. he appealed to his base in the way he did successfully in the 2016 campaign and not so much leading up on the midterm elections. he's hoping to get enough people that's still on the trump camp and on this issue being on the trump camp means we are ready to reopen, why is the heavy hand still on us and pushing down the economy. it does not get more complicated than

john harwood back with us from the white house, and dana bash. pretty impossible question to answer, but give it your best shot, why? >> thank you for prefacing the question that way, poppy. i think it is the way that we have observed this president for -- in his political life, but also in his sort of personal and real estate life before that. and the answer is he does what he wants to do. and he leads by example and in this case, the example he's leading by is -- flies in the face of what medical professionals clearly want him to do. but the example that he is leading by is what his political antenna are leading him towards. which is everything is okay. we need to reopen the society, reopen the economy, get things back to terra firma politically, as we get closer to november. and that's just the hard reality of it. i don't think there is anything deeper or more complicated than that. one of the things about this president is that he's quite transparent in what he does. on this drug, hydroxychloroquine, he had been a believer in it since the beg

dana, we're learning the white house is moving to limit coronavirus task force members like dr.ci, dr. birx, among others, from appearing before committees in the house of representatives. how important is it to hear from these experts in that kind of a forum, a different forum, let's say, than the white house briefing room? >> incredibly important. that is one of the basic functions of congress. and now that congress is back for however long they are, they want to use the benefit of actually physically being in washington to do that job. that's one of the reasons why leaders in both parties insisted that they needed to come back despite the obvious risks of being in that building and being at work. and so for americans to hear from these very important historic individuals about where we are in time, for the record, never mind for the american people, it is really, really crucial. now, they're limiting it in general, we believe, that at least anthony fauci will still be able to testify before the republican-led senate. you know, they don't want these officials to be in front of
