Trump stares down the virus and whose coup was it anyway?

The Justice Department wants to drop the case against a former Trump adviser. And unemployment levels are breaking records.

After saying he'd disband the White House coronavirus task force on Tuesday, President Donald Trump yesterday tweeted that it would continue "indefinitely," but its members could change as it shifts to focus on reopening the nation. Meanwhile, weeks of heavy rains have fed floods in Kenya that have killed 194 people, left 100,000 homeless and washed away 8,000 acres of cropland.

The Trump Administration is moving on to another phase of the pandemic. And a whistleblower says he was punished for speaking out.

Where was the U.S. at the global virus summit? And as states open, death tolls may soar.

Questions remain about post-coronavirus immunity. And Trump now says as many as 100,000 Americans may die in the pandemic.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved emergency use of Ebola drug remdesivir for treating COVID-19 patients. Meanwhile, Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden finally went public Friday, denying a 1993 sexual assault accusation.

Trump hasn’t offered evidence for his claim that the coronavirus originated in a lab. And Joe Biden will address an assault allegation.

Early U.S. trials for potential COVID-19 treatment remdesivir show “a clear-cut, significant, positive effect” says America’s top pandemic adviser. Meanwhile, South Korean infections zero out while Britain’s deaths soar.

The US has more than a million coronavirus cases. And Brazil’s president is in serious trouble.
