neil? neil: is there any chance, blake, that russia said, well, now that you're doing this to us no summit, no real reason to have a summit? reporter: certain think there's a chance this possibility the president wants. he invited vladmir putin and other leaders, 30, 40, to a climate summit. there has been outreach but, takes two to tango, right? neil: yeah, you're right. blake, thank you very much for that update. blake at the white house. other developments today, the reason why the economy, the markets are certainly doing so well, you're doing well, we're doing well. a lot of you buying. we're buying like crazy. we had jobless claims at a record low throughout the pandemic. we have never seen them this low, 576,000. add that to the fact that retail sales jumped 9.8% in march. you get the idea. lydia hu, wayne, new jersey, a big beneficiary of all that buying. reporter: neil, we're inside a shopping mall, the willow brock shopping mall in wayne, new jersey. what we're finding that more an

neil? >> neil: jonathan serrie, thanks very much. to jonathan's point, we should mention that pfizer has agreed to increase production another 10% to make up for whatever gap might be there because the pause of j&j continues. let's go to the former health and human services secretary for donald trump. secretary, good to see you. what do you make of this action and the fact that there's still this pause and furthermore we're hearing from americans leery of taking the j&j drug when it does become available. what do you think? >> it's important to appreciate the context. again, six individuals out of over seven million. it's very early. in fact, as you noted, the advisory committee at the cdc is mitting literally as we speak. it's been 48 hours since the record was acknowledged or made public on monday of this week. so the pause is appropriate. there's no doubt about it. obviously the incidence cost you. you don't want any of these challenges or complicationed. they're rare. the advisory committee will make a recommendation and the fda

>> hi, neil. such a great beautiful day to be out here. the sun is out. the rain has stopped. fans are so excited. good news for you. this game was sold out. doesn't mean the stadium was packed. that, of course, is because of all of the covid restrictions. the yankees have to limit capacity down to just 20%, which is just under 11,000 people. let me show you, if you can pan over to the left here. fans enjoying the beautiful day, taking pictures with the family. it's a great day for baseball to be back. now, there is a new normal as you mentioned. a lot of different safety precautions that fans have to go through to get inside the stadium. have to provide a negative covid test or proof of vaccination, get their temperatures checked. they have to be wearing the masks. now none of it matters to the fans that are ready for live action baseball. >> we can't stay in the house anymore. we're baseball fans, yankee fans. we need to get out of the house. >> definitely feels like the beginning of the end. fe

neil? >> neil: jacqui heinrich, thanks very much. we'll be going to the white house when the press conference begins. first, john kirby, the pentagon press secretary. thanks for taking the time. i do want to follow up on the russian sanctions going into effect. the russians responded today by saying you want to get rid of our diplomats from your country, we want to do the same and will do the same in our country. where is this going, john? >> well, i hope where it's going is more responsible behavior by russia and they're not interfering with our democracy here, that they're not further causing instability and insecurity in eastern europe. they're becoming more responsible actors on the world stage than they have been thus far. that's what we're trying to achieve here. >> neil: so jon, if they invade, the republicans, forget about the campaign 2020 interference that led to this, if they invade the ukraine, what are we going to do? >> i wouldn't get into hypotheticals on future operations one way or the other, neil. nobody wants to se

but neil, it's yours. neil: thank you, stuart, very, very much. we are in a down market, everyone, down 142 points. earnings are not the problem. maybe anxiety what the president of the united states announces tonight with plans for more spending $1.8 trillion plan added to stimulus efforts already. talking close to $6 trillion new spending not all paid with the high taxes, record high taxes. we'll get into that in a second. suffice it to say there is skiddishness whether the any of this will stick and whether the president gets what he wants. slimmest majorities in the house, tied senate, with the vice president being the tiebreaker. he has done it before on covid relief. $1.9 trillion package. hopes to do the same with a 2.25 infrastructure plan. the one getting all the attention tonight, plan for kids and families totaling better than $1.8 trillion. hillary vaughn handicapping that ahead of the president's speech tonight. hillary? reporter: neil, president biden will be pitching his next trillion dollar spending package directly to congress. he

neil, it is yours. neil: thank you very much, stuart. we're looking at a market kind of been fading away some earlier gains. concerns we get a good earnings numbers, all the earnings are very strong, in case of ford, estimates, concerns about the chip shortage, where have you heard this before, will impact future sales and earnings. that might flay play out a host of other companies. technology stocks, giving up little of those gains. the big one to watch for after the bell today is amazon. get the read, interest rates slightly backing up with danielle dimartino booth, quill intelligence ceo, former dallas fed advisor. danielle, what is interesting here between the president's spending details announced last night, we're at 6 trillion plus, and all the improving economic news with claims, sort of a post-pandemic low, even the strong gdp numbers, i would have expected even more of a backup in rates and we're not seeing that. what do you think? >> well we aren't seeing it, neil, and i think that there is still some hesitancy. we don't know

>> hi there, neil. the president returns to a battleground state that very much remains at the center of debate over election law here in the united states. prior to today's visit, president biden had publicly supported major league baseball's decision to move this year's all-star game out of the peach state alleging that changes to georgia's elections will make it more difficult for minority voter was. brian kemp accused republicans of playing politics. >> quite honestly, they're lying about georgia's law. tim scott said it makes it easy to vote and hard to cheat in georgia. >> not only did georgia help put up biden in the white house but this once solidly red state elected two democrats to the senate. that has allowed the president to go bold on his agenda calling for nearly $6 trillion in government spending on programs ranging from covid relief to infrastructure. now, neil, this afternoon, the president and first lady wrapped up a visit with former president jimmy carter and his rife in plains, geor

neil? >> neil: now to the omb director under president trump, russell good to see you. a lot of spending here and a lot of tax hikes. the irony being the record number and amount of tax hikes, they don't come close to footing the entire 6 1/3 trillion bill between the rescue plan, the jobs plan, the families plan. lots of plans. even with those tax hikes, not nearly enough to cover them all. what do you make of that? >> it's insane, neil. the reality is that those are just what's on paper. if you look at the obama administration, they had about $650 billion in tax revenue increases on paper. that led to $3 trillion in revenue loss because the economy tanked because of their policy agenda. this administration is basically the next one from the obama administration, so i think all of these job-killing taxes are going to really cause us to have not just an inability to pay for the spending but a really damaging economy. >> neil: well, you're not saying the economy tanked under barack obama? af

neil: yeah. it as well, but they're making a choice here because it is tough, especially dealing with child care issues or looking after mom or dad. it is not all that black and white. >> yeah. neil: i'm curious what are capacity restraints for you right now still in effect or could be improved? what is going on? >> it is interesting. i don't know if you know, neil, i was a big part of the recall. i went and spoke throughout california. getting him -- neil: a lot of people wanted you to run. i remember that. >> i have been asked. all i can say is this, is that and i hate to get off track what you were saying is, i just want people to hashtag, never forget. never forget right now, at one brokerage there 172 leases to restaurants and businesses you can walk into right now because people have lost the business. people on unemployment, i'm not here to tear down anybody that makes that decision. i need them working. i would love to have a better choice but at the end of the day, this is traumatizing.

neil? >> neil: peter, thanks very much.s to congratulate you on our marriage. if i can offer you advice, say she's always right. very productive. congratulations. >> thank you, neil. >> neil: all right. we have a lot more coming up. when when we had the georgia secretary of state on? he decided to blast kelly loeffler, the former georgia senator. she responded and she will very clearly next segment. some say this is my greatest challenge ever. but i've seen centuries of this. with a companion that powers a digital world, traded with a touch. the gold standard, so to speak ;) i'm ordering some burritos! oh, nice. burritos?! get a freshly made footlong from subway® instead. with crisp veggies on freshly baked bread. just order in the app! ah, ok! try the oven roasted turkey with banana peppers, for a lil' extra kick. kick, i get it. ooh! get a freshly made footlong from subway® instead. choose better. be better. and now save when you order in the app. subway eat fresh. being a good father is important to me so being diagnosed

i'm neil cavuto. this is "your world" and a world of big spending in the works and some big tax hikes to go with it. this time wall street had a very different reaction. maybe sensing not all of this can go through. first, to blake burman to here get a look at exactly what the administration could be looking at. i guess, blake, detailing next week. >> there are the numbers, neil and the politics as well. we're told from the white house to expect when the president rolls out the plan next week it will include raising taxes on those that make $400,000 a year and raising the capital gains rate up to 39.6% for income over a million dollars. keep in mind, the president had talked about this during the campaign. so it's been modeled all right. here's some of the numbers. when look at raising capital gains to 39.6 and pairing that with tax treatments, the tax policy center estimates it will cost $370 billion over a decade. the tax foundation higher than that at $469 billion. for those making more than $400,0

neil? >> neil: much has been made of the fact that no member of the jury wanted a call for clarification or had questions. do we know that to be the case. generally if that is the case that that could signal that they were comfortable with the material that they had. >> yeah. our understanding with a lot of staff here, there were no questions from the jury. maybe we'll learn there were. we were not made aware of any questions, there was a long day of closing arguments yet. the jury decided after that long day to begin deliberations last night. they began a few hours until 8:00 p.m. so the initial impression is that this was a jury that was motivated, that was working perhaps together efficiently and our understanding is they began deliberations an hour earlier than expected. here we are now a couple hours later and there's a verdict. we'll bring that to you, neil. >> neil: thank you, matt. up now, in closing arguments, prosecutors told jurors that "you can believe your eyes. it's what you f

neil? neil: good to see , grady.theme that we report at the outset of the show where some booming numbers including housing starts up 19% of the latest month, retail sales yesterday reported up almost 10%, you're seeing obviously the job data getting better and better, record low, a little more than half a million americans applying for jobless benefits, the lowest weekly figure we've seen through the pandemic. i could go on and on but let's go to the experts, john lawsky, is joining us, mark hammerich, bank rate senior economic analyst gentlemen welcome to both of you. so john on the booming economic numbers, with few exceptions, they continue to just amaze. what do you think is going on here? >> well in large part this is a release of pent-up demand, we have a record high personal savings rate, and that was because of people actually couldn't spend money on a number of services that were effective ly shutdown, talking about the airlines, the airlines are reopening, hotels, resorts, and this will lead to at least a

neil?very generous, but very expensive. hillary vaughn, thank you finish that. we've got mark hamrick with us, ann berry, financial expert. you know, looking at this there are a lot of good things, for example, in just infrastructure, right? i mean, there's even $400 billion set aside to help the elderly and the handicapped. no one would be against that on the surface, of course, but included in an infrastructure package, it does raise a question, also making permanent child credits, how you sell that and still call it infrastructure. your thoughts. >> it's funny you're saying that, neil, because i was just reviewing a report on this measure in the break here that really does get to the notion that it's probably less than truthful to call this an infrastructure bill without saying infrastructure plus. and i do feel as if, you know, we know as we've discussed earlier that we're in a bit of a fix here. are we really committed to doing that job, or is this like other episodes in our history wh

neil? neil: wild.g first time in 4-12 days albeit limited capacity, peter winner with us right now, is this unplugged podcast is usually popular and he is hugely authoritative on this , so pete, good to see you again. how do you think it's going to go today? >> so far, from what we're hear ing, it's going quite well. it's reopening something like this after such a long time is going to come with challenges but so far it sounds like it's going well. neil: so how are they doing it, 25% capacity thus far, they have plans to lift it if all goes well to 35% so could you explain the rollout? >> effectively, what they're doing is they are changing a number of features about how you visit the park, so now you have to make a park reservation. this is something that was introduced out here in florida at walt disney world last year when they reopened, their mobile app now is playing a much larger role in terms of mobile food ordering, contactless payments, things of that nature. these are things now disneyland is

neil? neil: all right. blake where, thank you very much for that. well, the administration, as blake pointed out, is positing this as something that's really for just the creme de la creme, the one-third of 1% who would be facing this higher capital gains tax rate that goes all the way up to 43.4%. but when i was talking to senator bill cassidy on this, the big republican against this whole thing, he says, no, no, they are wildly underestimating the impact on the markets and the economy. take a look at this. what do you think of all this, senator? >> take this money, filter it through the government agencies. of course public employees do pretty well and then give it to the favored few hoping that we do well. it is a difference in philosophy unfortunately, the average working person is who suffers. >> that can be on the backs of the wealthiest americans who can afford it, and corporates and businesses who can a-- corporations and businesses who can afford it. his view and the view of our economic team is that won't have a negative impact. neil: that

neil? >> neil: alex hogan, thanks very much.talked to the shear from pima county, arizona, you have to do something. he deals with it every day. taking the liberty to take these images, creative ways in which migrants sneak in here. the good sheriff was kind enough to say that i hate to break it to you, it's getting worse, they're getting more creative and there's more of them, period. the sheriff joins me right now. thanks for taking the time. some of these images and we were looking at them here do not show a crisis that is easing. that's clear. how would you describe it? >> no, they don't. we're used to it. but obviously this has increased 100, 200% for us, this is definitely a crisis. this is what we're trying to get our politicians and america to understand. the images that you're seeing, we're getting people running from us daily. then they do what is called a bail-out and run from a vehicle. that particular vehicle you saw pictures of, they had seven people bail out of the cab of that truck. we found eight more undocument

neil takes over now. >> neil: after the verdict, the backlash. right now derek chauvin looking at what could be quite a few years in prison. we don't know the details yet on what the judge will administer. what we do know is there's been fast and serious fallout in washington with the attorney general of the united states, merrick garland announcing a probe in policing practices in the city of minneapolis. at the same time, the president was bemoaning systemic racism that he wants corrected and corrected now. we'll be speaking with ben carson on the implications of this, what the former hud secretary thinks about potential overreach here. in the meantime, let's get the latest from kristin fisher on all of these measures to respond and take advantage of critics say a sore situation. >> yesterday's verdict is a step in the right direction. he also says there's still much more work to be done to address what he describes as the systemic racism embedded in u.s. institutions. >> it was a murder in full light of day. ripped the blinders off for the who

neil: all right. thank you very much for that hillary vaughn, following all of this. the reason why the tax part is getting such scrutiny because the numbers are deceptively large, in fact much larger than the administration is letting on. you heard that raising the corporate rate from 21 to 28% merely goes halfway. they could have risen up to 35%, what it was before the trump tax cuts. but that leaves out a very important detail that the tax foundation and others have followed. the corresponding tax rates in states. when you talk about corporate rates abroad, they don't have this anomaly where regions have their own surtaxes for companies by and large but if you add their tax burden in states to what is on top of the new federal level set at 28%, the u.s. would zoom to be among the major western powers the highest combined tax rate on earth for corporations and that is a worry for those corporations and one of the reasons why the tax foundation is saying that it is going to have a deleterious effect

eat fresh. >> neil: all right.g decision on the fate of the officer in the shooting of duante wright. we'll keep you posted. >> neil: all right. i know we're focused open a $2.5 trillion infrastructure package. apparently there's money tucked in there where payment going to undocumented migrants. senator steve daines from montana, on the financial committee, says we have to put a stop to that. he's proposing a measure banning money making its way to migrants undocumented at that and not american citizens. what kind of reaction have you gotten? i didn't know this would be a feature in the measure outside of states like new york. maybe you can update us. >> i just on the southern border. i saw why there's a long line of illegals to come in. i saw more bidens t-shirts than at the dnc. why is that? for two runs. first of all, it's harder for a u.s. citizen to get here than an illegal. if your a citizen, you need a passport and a covid test. right now they get apprehended, processed and releases. here's the kicker. the

neil? >> neil: thanks, kristin fisher very much. we know that ruth bader ginsberg before she died didn't think much of this idea. justice brier alive and well saying he wasn't keen on it as well. and then there's antonin scalia, justice is long gone but he kept up with his son, chris, about what his dad would make of this. chris scalia. >> father was never asked as far as i know what he thought about court packing. because court packing was never an issue when he was alive. that's because conservatives never had a majority on the court. it's only now that conservatives have a majority that court packing is in play. because the left doesn't like the fact that they no longer have the majority on the supreme court. but i suspect my father would have agreed with his good friend justice ginsberg and with his other good friend, justice brier, both only whom on the record justice brier just the other day had a speech at harvard suggest nag court packing is a very bad idea. it politicizes the court. >> then there's the issue of be careful w

hi, alex. >> hi, neil. in the early hours of the morning, we were able to join border patrol and step into their shoes and see how they view this immigration challenge and what we found in the dark families and people traveling alone who banded together for safety in numbers. some of those people were seriously ill and needed immediate medical treatment. others were lost and needed direction, not knowing where to go. what we've seen also, the number of children increasing. there's more than 19,000 children who crossed the border just last month alone. border patrol council vice president chris cabrera said in the last 20 years, it's the busiest he's ever seen it's. >> the worst thing we can do is become numb to something like that. that is not normal. it's becoming all too common to us now. wee see these kids in situations like that. >> the tour was organized through a trip led by house republican whip steve scalise. the delegation will continue their visit to the border meeting with other agencies. among t

bring in my colleague and friend, neil cavuto. it's yours, neil. neil: all right. thank you, stuart. i appreciate that. we'll see if we can keep that rally going, my friend. meantime we're focuses on a number of developments including attorney general merrick garland set to announce a probe in polices practices in minneapolis, after the verdict yesterday that electrified the nation. we have t.d. jakes on to talk about that. what he says the message of that verdict could be and the obligation on all of us to keep the calm. also talking to ben carson own the very same issue. and right now, on the vaccination front as well. so a lot coming up. meantime, we thought we would focus on a development here you're going to want to listen to real close because it could be real personal. at least a dozen governors are calling on the biden administration to slowly weed out gasoline powered cars with another 14 years. i mean not just a little bit. to make sure, they're not even sold 14 years from now. they're from states not big energy producers. that is probably more than just

neil? neil: got it. they committed to maybe increasing production 10% to ramp up a little bit, at their levels would be more than enough to compensate for the j&j loss. maybe that is why the administration said there is no reason to panic here? reporter: jeff zeints saying today that the timeline which they would have all the these doses is moved up couple weeks in advance from the end to from the end of july to the middle of july. they feel comfortable where things stand. neil: got it. blake burman, thank you very much. i was watching the health task fores presser yesterday. lo and behold, my friend hans nichols, "axios" was there, he was asking a lot of rude and relentless questions but he was great. whatever you make of the j&j situation, it was a good point is it going to add to some who have the vaccine skiddishness, going, no matter how small the figures, six in a universe of 6.8 million doses administered, is it going to prompt the paws? are they worried about that? did you get a satisfactory answ

neil? >> neil: jeff paul, thanks very much.apolis is the target of the justice department investigation on the overall police practices. we have a former nypd lieutenant here. joe, it's interesting that minneapolis is the focus. many have been looking at this to say it won't end up being just minneapolis. you think this is broader in scope than justice is letting on? >> absolutely. this is going to go nationwide. it's not just one thing they're looking for. they're looking for every piece of evidence that they can get against any cop across the nation. they're going to use it to try to reform police departments. but to what extent do you reform a police department? the police departments already are under enough scrutiny and stress and everything. if you want to find ways of weeding out the bad apples and doing police training, that is one thing. to bring the attorney general in to start scrutinizing a police department the way that they plan to do it is going to really have a ripple effect that will go across the nation. polic

neil: yeah. you know, doctor, obviously some will hear this, many leery of vaccines all together, and say this is yet another reason why i shouldn't, i shouldn't take it. what do you tell them? >> yeah. i'm saying that this is exceedingly rare and that there's a 99.9% chance that nothing will happen after you get the j&j shot. the j&j vaccine is very, very safe but i understand people's reluctance. i'm hearing already from patients who are sending me texts i don't want to get the vaccine now. i heard that there is side-effects, et cetera. my comment, don't worry about it. it is a one in a million deal. of course, neil, people are concerned. they don't want to be the one in a million. neil: are you worried about some of the spikes in cases that we've seen in michigan that prompted essentially a two-week government shutdown, not quite a lockdown but close to a shutdown with indoor dining, outdoor sports, that sort of thing, and then the spikes in cases not nearly as onerous going on in colorado, so

neil: yeah. a lot of the exchanges he had with so many presidents he met, i loved the exchange with ronald reagan. you don't look like a cowboy to me. [laughter] very cute, sort of encapsulated his entire personality. greg, thank you very much for that. nile gardiner joins us right now, form foreign policy -- former foreign policy adviser under maggie thatcher, so much more. excellent student of history as well. nile, thank you so much for joining us. i do wonder, when you plan for a funeral -- private, small or otherwise -- there are other elements to consider. we'd be remiss if we didn't mention, of course, prince harry, meghan markle interview with oprah winfrey, and we were told at the time prince philip was a aghast at that exchange, and now there's the added element, anxiety, drama around who goes, whether they go to the funeral, how, you know, fraught this could be for the family. what are you hearing? >> well, neil, thank you very much for having me on the show and, of course, extreme sad

neil? >> neil: pretty impressive. thanks, blake. as blake said, we're waiting to hear from the president of the united states outlining this. when he speaks, we're there. dr. richard besser is here, the former acting cdc director and the significance of this. doctor, by expanding the pool to those 16 and older and most if not the entire u.s. population, is this a reflection how fast vaccines are getting out or percentages have already been reached among the elderly and et cetera? what do you think? >> yeah, neil. it's a number of factors. one, the speed of vaccination as you point out. hitting four million doses in one day over the weekend. we're soon going to reach the point in many states where there's more vaccine than people that want to be vaccinated. this will simplify the system. at the same time, there's an increased effort to try to reach people in harder-to-reach communities. rural communities, communities underserved in terms of healthcare. they're ramping up as well. it's a sign the amount of vaccine, the vaccine supply

neil: absolutely.about jobless claims, this number is coming after the survey so why anyone would adjust their numbers based on tomorrow on claims, which we know is a useless series in terms of economic data analysis at the moment. the presence of skyhigh jobless claims has not been enough to keep hundreds of thousands of jobs from being rated over last months. we have seen some slowing at the turn of the year, but it looks like things are picking back up again. lisa: your optimism has been correct and you've been persistent in this v-shaped recovery and now other people are getting on the same boat. are these numbers simply useless? 719,000 initial jobless claims right now this point in the cycle. or does it indicate something else going on under the surface that does not question the optimism but questions how quickly we will get to the peak growth people are expecting? neil: know, i think the only issue is people are suffering from cognitive dissonance. do you honestly believe 700,000 people are get

they always could convert me and i could get rid of neil. and. >> but thompson eatingbacon. >> i felt like mo in the three stooges . [laughter] >> but as we know in your book it's not them. >> my friend saw somebody at a meeting of people with tiny control issues. where thank god does not include you and me. they had tattoos on their forearms, it's not them. but see what we were talking about,i'll go to my grave . i know that to be true that i don't believe it for a second . i can see that it's them. they're taking too long,they didn't prepare. there overheating . hthey're making me eat food i'm afraid of. ambushed me with food. but i can tell it's them and i can tell if they would just listen briefly to my thoughts that they would have better lives. it's not about me being more comfortable. >> i know i'm in a program wherethey say our health is not helpful . i resent that but i think my health is very hopeful. my son is 31 and he's the father of an 11-year-old and yet his deepest longing is to run beside him on his heroes journey with juice

neil: by all means include it, don't scrap everything before or after it. the notion that only conservatives are riled up about this misses the point. the columnist with theweek.com said this project is 1-sided

neil: it is their kids and grandkids. jeannie, thank you. switching on to economic manners that are pressing, housing. while the price of a home goes out it's not surprising bidders on the homes go down with existing home sales jimmy 3.6% as existing home price rocketed more than 17% in the same month, an all-time high about 329,000. scary times for housing market or a sign of good

i will say neil, look at this. he will say really gently, well, some people got a lot more son than others. i'll say okay what the hell is that about? that seems really angry to me won't you say that? he just loves my arms because i hold him, i love him, ipad him, i bring him things. but i don't think either us, i'm not positive, ever had somebody whose intentions seem to be to take care of us, right? i was a child with my clipboard i was the little flight attendant to everyone. i was raised by that culture that's were a girl or a woman gets her value. like being a little cigarette girl in the 40s, and i found someone at the ripe old age of 62 who takes care of me. it's so audit keep feeling what's the catch? two i not stupid i was not born yesterday, mr. p. it feels like you are slightly judgmental and suspicious. trusted and non- judgmental i keep surrounding myself with kind people that i will be kinder. but it makes me feel worse. shows how judgmental they are think abby doesn't hurt you. >> i think so. it's li

alison astles' brother neil died on sunday from a blood clot on the brain.he urged other people to continue to have the jab and said her brother had been "extraordinarily unlucky". she's been speaking to my colleague annita mcveigh. he had a vaccine on the 17th and probably about a week or so later, he started getting headaches which didn't go away and he started feeling sick as well, which again didn't go away. after about eight days of this, he got to the stage where he was starting to lose his vision and my other brother took him to a&e on friday night, and a scan there revealed a huge blood clot and bleed in his brain, so he was transferred over to icu where, unfortunately, he died on sunday evening. i am so, so sorry. what have you been told about any possible link between the vaccination and his death? the coroner is still preparing the report on this, so we are awaiting that, but we were told by the clinicians at the time, who were superb with us, i have to say, that they were 99.9% sure this was due to the covid vaccine and my brother's patterns of b

perhaps, neil., and that is princess eugenie and her husband. they were just married recently in windsor castle as well. for so many people they have seen weddings and beautiful events at windsor over the course of the last several years, and today everyone pauses to remember prince philip. neil, you think about what would have been in the streets of london -- that is princess beatrice and her husband, they're recently married as well. she is the daughter, obviously, of prince andrew and sarah ferguson who is not in attendance today, but the grandchildren bowing as their grandfather's casket passes, neil. >> yeah, i mean, sadly, because of the situation that in, it is sad that more people weren't allowed to celebrate. but we are all watching this televised event. and i think out of respect for her majesty the queen lots of people have stayed away from windsor, from buckingham palace. they have had to remove all the transcribe biewpts so that people didn't congregate as what happened with the likes o

science and religion from the very beginnings of life to our place within the universe pentagon advisor neil de grasse tyson has just published cosmic queries and i asked him about myths from people believing the earth was flat to the n.t. vacs as of the coronavirus pandemic age at the time people long ago thought earth was flat it's because because i look that way and it felt that way and it kind of made sense and there's no reference for example in the bible that identifies perth as a spherical 3 dimensional object and all references that it does make have it as a flat disc or right and in one case perhaps metaphorically it referred to corners but the point is the methods and tools of science that we now embrace that involve hypothesis then testing the hypothesis no matter what your senses might otherwise tell you became so important that in the era of modern in that era from about 1600 onward we don't find ourselves in these pickles where everybody is certain something is true and then later on we find out it's not so so back then the flat earth years was everybody we had no way to test i
