"President Donald Trump on Friday declared the coronavirus pandemic a national emergency in order to free up more money and resources. But he denied any responsibility for delays in making testing available for the new virus, whose spread has roiled markets and disrupted the lives of everyday Americans.
"Speaking from the Rose Garden, Trump said, “I am officially declaring a national emergency," unleashing as much as $50 billion for state and local governments to respond to the outbreak.
"Trump also announced a range of executive actions, including a new public-private partnership to expand coronavirus testing capabilities with drive-through locations, as his administration has come under fire for being too slow in making the test available. Trump said, “I don't take responsibility at all" for the slow rollout of testing.
"Late Friday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced a deal with the Trump administration for an aid package from Congress that would provide free tests, sick pay for workers and bolster food programs.
“ 'We are proud to have reached an agreement with the Administration to resolve outstanding challenges, and now will soon pass the Families First Coronavirus Response Act,” Pelosi announced in a letter to colleagues. The House was poised to vote.
"Access to testing has been a persistent source of concern. Still, Trump said officials don't want people taking the test unless they have certain symptoms. "We don't want people without symptoms to go and do that test," Trump said, adding, “It's totally unnecessary.' " . . .
Stock Markets Rally During President Trump’s Press Conference
Was the market shown dropping as the Democrats responded to Trump's actions?
The ever-insidious Democrats inserted language to facilitate abortions, highly opposed by conservatives. Now if Republicans fight the bill as presented they will be demagogued by the likes of Pelosi and her minions. Especially, anyone, you saw wearing white at the SOTU . TD

. . . "The media threw a tantrum because the markets rebounded upon news that the Trump administration declared a national emergency concerning the Wuhan Virus and outlined an agenda to handle the crisis. Even then, some clowns complained. Like this Jim Roberts guy from The New York Times, who had to quietly delete a tweet that noted the stock market going down as Trump spoke. When the Dow Jones ends 1,900+ points up, you’re going to get a face full of buckshot. Ace of Spades noticed, but also this point he made about Trump established a protocol for future drive-thru tests."
“Serious question about drive-thru testing: What happens if you don’t have a car?” he tweeted. Apparently, no serious enough because he also deleted that one. He then pivoted toward bashing Trump for causing the market to have a good day: . . .
China Loves Their Useful American Idiots   . . . "And yet, Democrats and their allies in the media aren't focused on holding China accountable for any of this behavior. Instead, they're policing language, calling people racists or xenophobic and giving the regime a free pass.
" 'Just astoundingly gross to call it the Wuhan Virus," MSNBC host Chris Hayes tweeted.
" 'FYI: Calling #COVID19 the 'Wuhan Virus' is racist," Hayes' MSNBC colleague David Gura declared.
"This, of course, is complete and utter nonsense. Until it wasn't a convenient talking point to be used against President Trump, the very media accusing Americans of racism for daring to correctly and factually identify where the virus came from used the language themselves." . . .
