Consider This from NPR - The Day Everything Changed: Fauci, Collins Reflect On 1 Year Of The Pandemic

March 11 will mark one year since the World Health Organization officially declared the coronavirus outbreak a global pandemic — when schools, businesses and workplaces began shutting down.

To mark the moment, two of the nation's top public health officials who have helped lead the U.S. response to the pandemic — Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Francis Collins — spoke to NPR about what they've learned, what they regret and why they're hopeful about the year ahead. Hear their full interview with NPR's Mary Louise Kelly.

Collins is the Director of the National Institutes of Health and Fauci is the chief medical adviser to President Biden.

And NPR's Brianna Scott reports on how some Americans remember March 11.

The Commentary Magazine Podcast - Biden the Credit Hog

Will it work? Also, what did Dr. Fauci mean when he said the CDC would be liberalizing its guidance over the next few weeks—was this an implicit admission it was slowing the roll until the relief bill is signed into law? Give a listen.

The Daily Signal - China Threat Looms Large for Biden Administration, Freshman Senator Says

Sen. Bill Hagerty, a freshman Republican from Tennessee, is a businessman who served as U.S. ambassador to Japan during the Trump administration.


Hagerty joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to describe how former President Donald Trump stood up to China. He also predicts what's in store for the U.S.-China relationship under President Joe Biden.


"China has made its intentions very clear," Hagerty says. "They've got their 2025 plan. One of the most nefarious things that you'll see, and we've got to continue to be very diligent [about], is China is constantly pushing to get their technology into the infrastructure of the rest of the world."


We also cover these stories:

  • Senate Democrats say they have the 51 votes needed to pass their $1.9 trillion COVID-19 bill, which Biden is expected to sign. 
  • Vanita Gupta, Biden’s pick for associate attorney general, testifies before the Senate Judiciary Committee.
  • The Biden administration asks the Supreme Court to throw out a case involving Trump’s policy on illegal immigration.
