Important note: the Supreme Court has remanded the NY case, so Trump's documents aren't going to prosecutors immediately - more court battles to come. https://t.co/US58CfwFOP — PolitiTweet.org

Asked if he will change CDC guidance because Trump criticized it, director Robert Redfield says, “We will continue to develop and evolve our guidance to meet the needs of schools and the states that we continue to provide that assistance to.” — PolitiTweet.org

.@kaitlancollins asks why Trump is threatening to cut funding at a time schools need more. Pence: "First and foremost, it's - what you heard from the president is just his determination to provide the kind of leadership...that says that we're gonna get our kids back to school." — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Asked what the administration's specific plan is to support schools, re testing, tracing, PPE, etc., Pence says, "The plan is to continue to do what we have done from the very beginning." He claims that is providing governors "whatever support they need." — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

In summary, this is another round of the president's top officials trying to soften his words while suggesting they're just clarifying what he really meant. — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Asked about Trump saying he disagrees with CDC guidelines, Pence says "I think what the president was saying" was that if aspects of the recommendations are a barrier to kids going back, we want governors and education leaders to know "we're here to work with them."

Pence says that in the next round of federal aid to states, "we're going to be looking for ways to give states a strong incentive and an encouragement to get kids back to school." — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Pence, being more nuanced than Trump, says "every state" has the ability to "take steps to get kids back in the classroom to the fullest extent possible," but for "individual communities" experiencing outbreaks, "we'll work with them..." — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Pence: "I think we would account for the fact that while we hope every school in America is able to open this fall, there may be some states and local communities that given cases or positivity in that community may adjust to either a certain set of days or certain limitations." — PolitiTweet.org

Asked yesterday what specifically his administration is doing to help schools reopen, Trump did not say anything. Instead, he demanded that schools reopen and claimed "the fall" is a long way away: "Well, we have a long time to think about the school stuff. Because, you know." https://t.co/owbeFKHA9l — PolitiTweet.org

Trump to Nexstar re Confederate flag: "My stance is very simple: it's freedom of speech. You do what you do. It's freedom of speech. NASCAR can do whatever they want, and they've chosen to go a certain way. Other people choose to go a different route. But it's freedom of speech." — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Pressed on what specifically his admin is doing to help with reopening schools, Trump, after not identifying anything, continued: "I would say that when we talk about the fall, that seems like a long time. It's a long time." (A lot of states' school years begin in August...) — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Pressed on whether there will be a national testing strategy or at least recommendations to help schools reopen, Trump said, "It may be. We're going to see. Well, we have a long time to think about the school stuff. Because, you know." ??? — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Asked by Nexstar today what specifically his administration is doing to make sure schools can reopen, Trump did not identify anything. Rather, he simply said "the schools have to open." He also claimed there will be a vaccine "very soon." — PolitiTweet.org

Asked by Greta Van Susteren about Fauci saying (the obvious that) the country is not in a good place with the virus, Trump said, "Well, I think we are in a good place. I disagree with him." He said Fauci has been wrong on other things before, like in opposing travel restrictions. — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

Trump to @greta on his plan for a Florida convention: "Well, we're always looking at different things...when we signed a few weeks ago, it looked good. And now all of a sudden it's spiking up a little bit and that's going to go down...depends on the timing...we're very flexible." — PolitiTweet.org

Daniel Dale @ddale8

"Cancel culture" is a vague and subjective term, but by any reasonable definition, Trump has long been one of America's most famous and persistent cancelation advocates: https://t.co/wLe1qsajnQ — PolitiTweet.org
