May 24, 2020New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced that professional sports teams can begin training in the state as coronavirus restrictions begin to loosen.

Cuomo told reporters Sunday that the economy can slowly reopen as cases decline — so long as smart policies are put in place, such as reduced capacity and requiring face masks. Sports teams will be allowed to conduct training together starting Sunday and veterinarian clinics can resume normal operations beginning Tuesday.COVID-19 is costing drug cartels millions of dollarsThe coronavirus pandemic has crippled cities and crushed businesses from coast to coast.

It’s also costing drug traffickers millions, multiple law enforcement officials told NBC News, because their methods of moving money have been compromised. Since the start of the crisis, federal drug agents in major U.S. hubs have seized substantially more illicit cash than usual amid statewide lockdowns that have disrupted the way cartels do business, the officials said.

“Their activities are a lot more apparent than they were three months ago,” said Bill Bodner, special agent in charge of the Drug Enforcement Administration’s Los Angeles field office.

Kinda late. Should have started back in Jan.or maybe back in late March when travel ban was in place.

Like mustard after the meal! Meaning: Too bloody late as usual! Procrastinator Trump strikes again...

Thank you President Trump

Arent you going to call him racist again

good but too late

Will citizens be tested and/or quarantined? If not, does Trump believe that citizens can not spread the virus?

Good

This has nothing to do with preventing the spread of COVID19. It has everything to do with the gop nazi wannabe regime taking advantage of every opportunity to arbitrarily fuck with people.

doesn't it exclude green card holders too? + close relatives of US citizens? this isn't a ban + if there's 'self-quarantine' rather than actual internment in hotels for 14 days, not likely to be as effective as it needs to be to protect Americans NIAIDNews NIH NYTHealth

U.S. citizens are of course, free to bring their infected asses back into the country at any time.

Good idea.The horse is out of the barn and in the next state and Trump wants every business open, but sure. This is helpful. 🙄

But it’s a hoax! Or It’s a Democratic conspiracy! Or It’s just the flu!

Also Missouri?

Democrats Communist Friends are attacking people in Hong Kong, Biden supports it.

A little late

No horses are left in the barn!🤦🏽

Why? Bolsonaro says Covd19 is just like a 'flu. (Remind you of anyone?)

If they handle like the Mar 12 European cutoff, the airports will be round 2 of mass casualties. They wont track who goes to a 2nd country to avoid the Brazil label. THEY.ARE.INCOMPETENT.

maddow TeamPelosi JoeNBC White House announces that it will ban entrance for non citizens from Brazil to the United States. Again Trump is late he is doing the same thing he did with China and the European flights should have been done weeks ago! Should have banned everyone.

He is doing exactly what he did with China. What about the Americans that have the C-19? Are they coming home to add to the 2 million C-19 cases? Incompetent people!

I agree with this one

That makes no sense. If they have isolated for 14 days and developed no symptoms, they would be virus free. These idiots have no idea what they are fucking doing.

Too late

For God's sake, hurry up and get back to discussing Joe Biden and his you ain't black statement. Make sure you stay away from the toddler-in-chief's tweets about JoeNBC . Dumbasses.

How nice to think of this 6 months after this virus starting spreading.

Reasonable

I suppose now he’ll be on the network news bragging about this great decision on his part, which anyone with common sense would’ve done.

Doing this will slow the spread of the virus from Brazil to the United states.

Just now?🤷

XENOPHOBE! Right guys!?

Anyone really wants to come to the US right now?

All these travel bans make zero sense. A Brazilian is just as likely to have it as your neighbor . Same with Canada , why stop border traffic ? USA has the most cases

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🏼👍👍👍👍👍👍🏼👍👍👍🏼👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Notice how the three countries with the most cases have the douchiest, dickiest, assholiest leadership? Imagine a world without Trump, Putin and Bolsanaro.

Bonsonaro or whatever his name is, will be so disappointed. No?

I feel so much better now. Might go celebrate at a crowded bar

They should ban all non citizens until we have a cure

44% of Republicans think Bill Gates is working on a coronavirus vaccine so he can plant a microchip in them. These folks are gone and never coming back to reality:

What if Trump's buddy wants to come visit him tomorrow for a round of golf?

I thought dick tater gave the president of Brazil 2 thumbs up.

As usual, too little too late.

That's good, isn't it? Or can you guys determine a way to bash Trump for it?

...because U.S. citizens couldn’t possibly be carriers.

Hopefully it’ll be as successful as his meaningless China travel ban.

Lol we have more cases. Why would they want to come?

Too late.

US is more of a hotspot

Stop all entries into our Country! We have our own people to focus on, let alone trying to worry about non citizens.

GOOD !

This is racist somehow, right?

I am petty sure this is to protect them from is, not protect us from them! We aremore diseases than they are

But I thought this was a Democratic hoax? 🤷‍♂️

BREAKING...Biden calls Trump xenophobic for blocking people’s from Brazil.

Does the virus know the difference between citizens and noncitizens🤔🤔🤔🤔

But.. but.. it’s all a Hoax!

Good move

That's right. Certainly wouldn't want an outbreak here.

But I thought we had COVID under control and states could re-open. Can’t have it both ways 🤷‍♂️

good we dont need them right now

Too little too late. Again.

Chris Wallace Grills Dr. Birx: Did White House ‘Underestimate’ Virus and ‘Reopen Too Soon?’Fox News anchor Chris Wallace pressed White House coronavirus task force coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx on the rising coronavirus death count, asking Birx if the Trump administration has “underestimated” the strength of the virus as it rushes to fully reopen the economy.With all 50 states now at least Sure. The White House didn’t open anything. That is a power granted to the states. Good try though. Chris Wallace, you remind me a little bit of Mike Wallace, a great and impartial journalist.

White House goal on testing nursing homes unmetNearly two weeks ago the White House urged that every nursing home resident and staff member be tested for the coronavirus within 14 days. At least half of the states won't meet the deadline and some aren’t even bothering to try, an AP review found. Maybe if Trump threatened to cut off funds for states that fair to comply - no, wait, he only does that for states that try to make voting easier for their citizens. Never mind. WhiteHouse Birx ... Where are all the Covid19testing kits, Incl antibodytest to accommodate JUST these people, still NOT INCLUDING the rest of the population STILL WAITING? Where is the Stockpile you were supposed to obtain in the past 3+ YEARS, let alone past 3 months?!😡🤨 it is not a very kind test to subject elderly and frail people to if they have no symptoms and there is none in the home. I do hope their consent is needed before shoving a cotton bud up the nose and down the throat? 👵🏻👴🏻😩

Dr. Deborah Birx, White House coronavirus response coordinator, pressed on Memorial Day reopening guidance“We really made it clear that during this reopening social gatherings should not be more than 10 people even if they’re outside,” Dr. Deborah Birx tells MarthaRaddatz when asked about data showing a rise in cases in some states as they begin to reopen. MarthaRaddatz The problem with social distancing is that it isn't 100% effective. So people still get infected. In countries led by responsible adults, they know this, and have prepared for it with surveillance testing, contact-tracing & mandatory quarantine. Not here. TrumpGolfsYouDie MarthaRaddatz I was at the beach on Friday and again today in Orange County,CA. Wide open. People being mindful of distancing. People out walking getting needed exercise.

White House, State Dept. fail to turn over documents related to firing of watchdogThe White House and the State Dept. failed Friday to hand over documents related to probe by both chambers of Congress into President Trump’s abrupt firing of the State Dept. inspector general. realDonaldTrump has nothing left to play: he has lost everything, nothing is working, can’t stop JoeBiden for nomination, even risking impeachment! His last desperate move is to start cultural war, and the reason why he had a press conf to demand for Churches to open! While both chambers have failed to pass real legislation for the past 100 years. You can zip it now.
