what reason did sloane robinson give for shuttering?ut fund raising for sloane robinson. they said that in their investor letter, they performed pretty well given the market conditions, but they weren't able to raise the money they need to continue operations. they said most of what they are working with is legacy funds from prior gains in their hedge fund, which is remarkable because sloane robinson is a really well-known in the city of london so based on that come you would think they would be able to attract funds, even given the volatile environment, but they haven't been, which really shows what a difficult environment it is for hedge funds and others. they are not completely shutting down quite yet. they are returning funds, winding down to their global funds. they say they are looking for a home in their emerging market in frontier funds and they are going to continue to investigate founders funds. i want to point out one quote in their letter to shareholders. now in our 60's and are looking to step back from the business." matt:

reasonable step something the president has known who rule own fisher al-jazeera washington well melanie sloan is a former federal prosecutor she says trump's grant of clemency is a reward for a stone backing him mr stone was convicted by a jury and he was sentenced to jail and he's done everything he can to delay that sends and stone had been appealing to the president today he's suggesting that mr trump should commute his sentence and to date mr chung finally did that which was basically payback for roger stone refusing to come clean about everything that he had done on behalf of the president to help him win the election in 2060 you are close to mr trump and you do something illegal that helps him that he will do everything he can to help you and make sure you go free if on the other hand you are not viewed as sufficiently loyal as in the example of michael cohen then you can go back to jale i mean it's very interesting that mr trump expressed so much concern about roger stone at going to jail with kobe and yet there are many many i mean probably hundreds if not thousands of federal prisone

sloan on his opinion about the significance of the decision. i also think that the united states of america's very fortunate that this case came along early in its history because previously with the bank of the united states, it had to -- there was constitutional crisis there. as to who was to decide if there was to be a bank of the united states. there was also the alien sedition act under president john adams that created such a turmoil. and i think that that all ended with marbury versus madison. if you've ever been to the supreme court, when you walk in, there is that gigantic sculpture of john marshall. it doesn't leave any doubt as to who is the, you know, the most significant member ever of the supreme court. >> in the view of the court who built the building. >> it is in the court, and, actually, david, i think both of the things that you mentioned cut against your point in a certain way. so, people have been taught, oh, the supreme court is the ultimate interpreter of the constitution. well, not quite. and i'm not endorsing kim davis

> we have a deputy physician and chief for quality safety and infection control expert at memorial sloan-ketteringenter. first, want your reaction. good morning. >> good morning. >> first want your reaction to president trump's claim, again, on testing, driving the case count right now and that 99% are totally harmless. >> yeah. i think it all is of his decision to never wear a mask and his hope it goes away if he wills it away. the 1% number is ridiculous. i mean, i think we've seen a u.s. death rate in the range of 4 to 5%. we know that. many of the survivors have a very long, difficult road ahead. i think that these are incredibly irresponsible claims. none more so than the notion that testing is the problem rather than the solution. it's the only way out of this. his blaming of testing is the most preposterous of all the misinformation. >> doctor, let me ask you this. you may have seen the crowds at the beaches, of course, the washington, d.c. festivities, you saw them in your own area. from what you've observed, are you satisfied with the precautions that people took or are you worried that w

want to bring in cnn medical analyst and deputy physician and chief of quality and safety at memorial sloan-kettering with us. our hearts go out to cain's family, of course. we've seen him in the political sphere so many times and i think like a lot of people who haval succumbed to covid, he is preexisting conditions? right? a cancer survivor, making him more vulnerable to this disease. what can we take away from this case? >> as you say, it's a tragedy, he's joined so many others that died of this disease. i think his cancer was many years ago. he's a survivor of a 12, 14-year. that did not increase his risk. the overwhelming risk factor for him and for the rest of the world was his age. he was 74 years old. we don't know that much else about his medical history. the lesson is the obvious lesson which is that one must do everything one can do to keep from acquiring and to keep from transmitting the infection, and he was not a believer in masks. i don't think now is the time to gang up on those decisions he made, but clearly, that's relevant for the national infection, i al infection. >> i also want
