MSNBC anchor Chris Hayes was in disbelief on Friday as he interviewed Katie Benner, The New York Times reporter behind the newspaper's bombshell report on Donald Trump's efforts to force out his acting Attorney General in an attempt to overturn the 2020 election results.
"The Justice Department's top leaders listened in stunned silence this month: One of their peers, they were told, had devised a plan with President Donald J. Trump to oust Jeffrey A. Rosen as acting attorney general and wield the department's power to force Georgia state lawmakers to overturn its presidential election results," Benner reported Friday evening.
Only days after Donald Trump returned to private life, The New York Times published a blockbuster new story on his efforts to overturn the election.
"The Justice Department's top leaders listened in stunned silence this month: One of their peers, they were told, had devised a plan with President Donald J. Trump to oust Jeffrey A. Rosen as acting attorney general and wield the department's power to force Georgia state lawmakers to overturn its presidential election results," The New York Times reported Friday evening.
America will receive far fewer COVID-19 vaccines than hoped due to a decision made in the final days of the Trump administration.
"In December, pharmacists made the happy discovery that they could squeeze an extra vaccine dose out of Pfizer vials that were supposed to contain only five. Now, it appears, the bill is due. Pfizer plans to count the surprise sixth dose toward its previous commitment of 200 million doses of Covid vaccine by the end of July and therefore will be providing fewer vials than once expected for the United States," The New York Times reported Friday evening. "And yet, pharmacists at some vaccination sites say they are still struggling to reliably extract the extra doses, which require the use of a specialty syringe."
