FIVE STORIES PRESIDENT TRUMP DOESN'T WANT YOU TO MISS

Trump Signs Coronavirus Bill Reviving Fund for Small-Business Loans -New York Post “President Trump on Friday signed a nearly half-trillion-dollar coronavirus relief bill that replenishes money for small-business loans to prevent layoffs,” Steven Nelson and Ebony Bowden report. “The small-business program forgives loans if businesses with up to 500 employees, and in some cases more, don’t lay off workers.”  President Trump: “We are marshalling the full power of the federal government!” Rep. Andy Barr: Coronavirus — Congress, Make China Answer for Pandemic -Fox News “As we continue to ‘flatten the curve’ and gradually begin to re-open the economy, the American people deserve answers about how this contagion started, how it spread and how we can prevent something like this from ever happening again,” Rep. Andy Barr (R-KY) writes. “The communists in Beijing put us all at risk.” How the Media Completely Blew the Trump Ventilator Story -National Review “After nearly four years of unrelieved Trump hysteria in the media, it’s hard to rank the worst journalistic outrages,” Rich Lowry writes. But how the press misreported the story of America’s ventilator stockpile “belongs high on the list.” Last year, America produced 30,000 ventilators. This year, it will be about 200,000—and they’re already coming in.

Joint Statement by President Donald J. Trump and President Vladimir Putin of Russia Commemorating the 75th Anniversary of the Meeting on the Elbe

Office of the Press Secretary FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE April 25, 2020 Joint Statement by President Donald J. Trump and President Vladimir Putin of Russia Commemorating the 75th Anniversary of the Meeting on the Elbe  April 25, 2020, marks the 75th Anniversary of the historic meeting between American and Soviet troops, who shook hands on the damaged bridge over the Elbe River.  This event heralded the decisive defeat of the Nazi regime. The meeting on the Elbe represented a culmination of tremendous efforts by the many countries and peoples that joined forces under the framework of the United Nations Declaration of 1942.  This common struggle required enormous sacrifice by millions of soldiers, sailors, and citizens in multiple theaters of war. We also recognize the contributions from millions of men and women on the home front, who forged vast quantities of war materials for use around the world.  Workers and manufacturers played a crucial role in supplying the allied forces with the tools necessary for victory. The "Spirit of the Elbe" is an example of how our countries can put aside differences, build trust, and cooperate in pursuit of a greater cause.  As we work today to confront the most important challenges of the 21st century, we pay tribute to the valor and courage of all those who fought together to defeat fascism.  Their heroic feat will never be forgotten.
