WASHINGTON – White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany tested positive for coronavirus, she disclosed on Monday, the latest high-profile official in President Donald Trump's immediate orbit to do so.

McEnany said she tested positive on Monday, a day after she informally briefed reporters outside the West Wing.

“After testing negative consistently, including every day since Thursday, I tested positive for COVID-19 on Monday morning while experiencing no symptoms,” McEnany posted to Twitter.

"As an essential worker, I have worked diligently to provide needed information to the American People at this time," she wrote. "With my recent positive test, I will begin the quarantine process and will continue working on behalf of the American People remotely.”

The announcement comes days after Trump himself announced Friday that he tested positive. Hours later he was moved to Walter Reed Medical Center, where he continues to be evaluated. First lady Melania Trump also announced she tested positive.

McEnany was among several officials who attended a ceremony in the Rose Garden at the White House late last month when Trump introduced Judge Amy Coney Barrett as his nominee to the Supreme Court. That was a common event for many of those in the administration or Congress who later tested positive.

Very few people were wearing masks during that event. Photographs show that McEnany was wearing a mask for at least part of the Saturday event.

McEnany last briefed at the White House on Thursday, however she held an informal gaggle with reporters on Sunday after appearing on Fox News. She was not wearing a mask in either instance.

McEnany said in her statement that no reporters, photographers or other members of the press had been listed as "close contacts" by the White House Medical Unit for purposes of contact tracing. Known as a "gaggle" in Washington parlance, the informal briefing on Sunday was held outside. McEnany took two questions.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump briefly left the military hospital where he is being treated for COVID-19 in a motorcade on Sunday to wave to supporters gathered outside, sparking criticism that he was putting others at risk for a political stunt.

Trump was captured on video waving from the back seat of a black SUV Sunday evening, wearing a mask, as crowds cheered and waved American flags and pro-Trump banners outside Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in the Washington suburb of Bethesda, Maryland.

Two people could be seen in the vehicle’s front seats.

Patients who test positive for COVID-19 are generally required to quarantine for 14 days, the typical incubation period for the coronavirus to avoid infecting others. The disease has killed more than 200,000 Americans.

Trump tested positive on Thursday and did not disclose his infection until the early hours of Friday morning.

Shortly before the brief ride, Trump posted a video on Twitter saying he would “pay a little surprise to the some of the great patriots we have out on the street.”

White House spokesman Judd Deere described the drive as a “short, last-minute motorcade ride to wave to his supporters” and said Trump quickly returned to his hospital suite.

Deere said “appropriate precautions were taken” before the ride to protect the President and those supporting him. “The movement was cleared by the medical team as safe to do,” he said.

Criticism of the ride was swift, including from an attending physician at Walter Reed.

"Every single person in the vehicle during that completely unnecessary Presidential 'drive-by' just now has to be quarantined for 14 days," James Phillips, who is also an assistant professor of emergency medicine at George Washington University's medical school said here on Twitter. "They might get sick. They may die. For political theater."

Senator Brian Schatz, a Hawaii Democrat, added that he was praying for the health of Trump’s Secret Service security detail: “They understood the risk inherent in the job, but they shouldn’t have to contemplate that the risk is coming from the protectee.”

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Three men blew up an ATM in a Chinese takeout restaurant in Philadelphia while the establishment was still open but were unable to get any cash, police said.

The men entered the Golden Chinese/American takeout restaurant in northwest Philadelphia shortly after 9 p.m. Friday and ordered food, police said. They then placed some kind of explosive device which damaged the ATM and the window and knocked items off shelves behind the counter, police said.

The three went back into the establishment but were unable to remove the cash box that was still inside the damaged ATM, police said. The three then fled, one on a bicycle and the other two on foot. Police were searching for suspects and no arrests were immediately reported.

The film community is in mourning after actor Thomas Jefferson Byrd was shot and killed in southwest Atlanta, according to police.

Byrd, who is well-known for starring in several films by director Spike Lee and also being a Tony Award-nominated stage actor, was found slain early Saturday morning, Atlanta police confirmed to AJC.com.

The call came in from the 2200 block of Belvedere Avenue about 1:45 a.m., according to Atlanta police spokesman Officer Anthony Grant. When police arrived at the location, they found Byrd on the ground with multiple gunshot wounds in his back.

He was pronounced dead by Grady emergency medical services.

Lee lamented Byrd’s death in a post on Instagram Sunday afternoon.

“I’m so sad to announce the tragic murder of our beloved brother Thomas Jefferson Byrd last night in Atlanta, Georgia,” he wrote.

Byrd, who was born in Griffin, received a bachelor’s degree in education at Morris Brown College before studying dance at the California Institute of the Arts. He has starred in numerous films directed by Lee, including “Bamboozled,” “Get on the Bus” and “Sweet Blood of Jesus.”

In 2003, he was nominated for a Tony Award as best featured actor in the Whoopi Goldberg-Charles S. Dutton revival of “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom” on Broadway.

Investigators are not sure what led to the incident and are working to determine the circumstances surrounding the death, Grant said.

“May we all wish condolences and blessings to his family," Lee said.

Life has its own complexities and its own brand of duality. Just like a ferris wheel, there are times when one is on top of the game, and there are also times when one hits rock bottom hard. For Confetti Da Reala Soulja, the horrors and pains of his past are long gone. And the light of the present and music are his for today and many more days to come. Labelled as the central star of his agency, Soulja or Benjamin LeBlanc, his real name, is a celebrated figure. He has even earned the nickname, Gangsta Entertainer widely due to his influence in the industry and his brand of music. However, the things he has enjoyed today did not come at the flick of the switch nor for a few months only.

 

As they say, there is always light in darkness. And that was what Confetti Da Reala Soulja exactly found. He turned his life around and slowly purged himself from harmful substance use. He fell in love with music and committed himself to professionally record his craft. Instead of wasting all his potential, he spent a lot of time perfecting his craft for music. His drive and sacrifices he made after everything that has happened in the past eventually bore fruits.

The fruits of his burning passion for music were everything for Soulja. In the pursuit of his success, he rose into greater heights as he became the main face of Sho-TimeTV. Currently, He is a bona fide professional rap artist. Confetti Da Reala Soulja has become a guest in a handful of radio stations across the United States. He has appeared in radio stations in New York as recent as February this year, just days before the pandemic became what it is today. He has also been a great figure in video shoots and has been in lower-level recordings. Behind the success of Confetti Da Reala Soulja is Karine Sho-Time Thomton. Thomton has endorsed Confetti to gain shows in radio features.

 

Despite his blindness and struggles recently, Confetti Da Reala Soulja will not let these adversities stop him. He continues to record music in Texas, join interviews and shows, and is allotting his time to take care of his children. LeBlanc is also aiming to get in a major publication. The marketing genius is primed to appear in movies too. Apart from making music, Confetti Da Reala Soulja will join the cast of PPRESSED 2. The VERA EDWARDS Films will be directed by Ricardo Cordero. Sho-Time TV will also be dropping an online DVD magazine featuring the rapper. “Wrong Number” is the latest single released by Confetti Da Reala Soulja. Aside from that, he has also released singles “Rap NASCAR” featuring Ready Murl, Treasure Hunt and Unda Boss. Both tracks are heavily leaning on the trademark of every hip hop track. He has also released The Best of Confetti Da Reala Soulja. The album is slowed and chopped by DJ Red. Truly, his effort, skill, and talent brought him where he is now ‒ the pedestal he has dreamed of. The career he has built years ago paved the way for the life of comfort and joy he has achieved now.

In the minutes before Harold Easter appears to go unconscious, alone in a police interview room, he begins to speak haltingly.

“You think I’m gonna die, but I’m not,” he says in garbled tones.

Easter grips the edge of a table. A few minutes later he slumps over the table, then suddenly moves upward and falls onto the floor. He hits a chair on his way down and starts having a seizure.

By the time police discover him, he has been on the floor for eight minutes.

Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police on Thursday released 17 video clips totaling 6 hours, 28 minutes of footage from body and surveillance cameras that detail Easter’s arrest after a traffic stop on Jan. 23, him being left alone in the interview room at the CMPD Metro station, and medics working on him after he collapses.

The 41-year-old Easter was taken to a hospital, where he died three days later.

The Observer reported this week that the four CMPD officers and a sergeant involved have resigned after being recommended for termination by Police Chief Johnny Jennings for not following policy of seeking medical assistance for Easter, who had ingested crack cocaine at the arrest scene.

Officers knew Easter put drugs in his mouth, which Easter admitted to during his arrest, the videos and documents released by CMPD revealed. The officers and sergeant did not follow a long-standing CMPD policy that states anyone suspected of ingesting drugs must be evaluated by Medic before being taken to jail, The Observer has reported.

The officers involved are Brentley Vinson, Michael Benfield, Michael Joseph and Shon Sheffield, and the sergeant was Nicolas Vincent. They had been on administrative leave since January.

The Whitney Houston hologram that recently surfaced will have to be placed back under wraps ... TMZ has learned it was already banned by a judge before the leak.

As we first told you ... a Whitney hologram originally intended for "The Voice" years ago leaked last week, and was supposedly a new and improved version. Quality aside, Whitney's estate was pissed because it didn't approve the release.

Alki David, the man whose company designed the hologram, believed he was allowed to use it on Scott Storch's variety show, and he did. David thought he was in the clear because he had previously worked on a Whitney hologram way back in 2016. That one was scrapped because her estate didn't like the look.

As it turns out, the estate says David was wrong

According to legal docs -- obtained by TMZ -- a judgment signed in July 2018 terminated the license agreement and contract Whitney's estate had signed with David back in 2015.

So, Whitney's team insists David had no legal standing to re-build or re-brand the Whitney hologram.

We're told David could be staring down the barrel of a major lawsuit if Team Whitney decides to go after him for violating that order. Sources with knowledge tell us the estate's attorneys are still weighing their legal options.

Trump’s physician, Sean Conley, said in a White House memo that he spoke incorrectly about the timing of Trump’s coronavirus diagnosis that conflicted with the White House’s previously stated timeline.

Conley created confusion at his Walter Reed news conference when he referenced Trump’s diagnosis being 72 hours old, which would have meant Trump learned he was ill Wednesday morning. Trump did not reveal his illness until 1 a.m. Friday.

The memo, released by White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany, says the doctor meant to say “day three” when referring to Trump’s diagnosis. Trump was first diagnosed with covid-19 on Thursday evening, the memo says.

The memo also seeks to correct the timing of when Trump began receiving antibody treatment. During the news conference, another physician, Brian Garibaldi, (though the memo attributes this to Conley as well) referred to giving the president the drug “48 hours ago,” but the memo says he meant “day two,” as in Friday and Saturday.

But even the memo seeking to deconflict the messy news conference gets two things incorrect, the spelling of the pharmaceutical company that makes the antibody drug Trump is taking and the name of the specific therapy.

The memo calls the drug company “Regeron,” the correct spelling is “Regeneron.” It also says the president is taking “polyclonal antibody therapy,” which a Regeneron spokeswoman says is inaccurate.

“REGN-COV2, which the president received, is a combination of two monoclonal antibodies,” said Alexandra Bowie, Regeneron spokeswoman. “This means each was produced by making identical copies, or clones, of an antibody gene in a single B cell. Polyclonal antibody refer to antibodies made by mixtures of B cells.”

Donald Trump's doctors just gave the low down on his condition, but the chief doctor dropped some alarming information, including Trump tested positive way before he revealed it, exposing hundreds of people to COVID.

Dr. Sean Conley said Trump was diagnosed 72 hours ago ... well, that would be Wednesday. That's stunning, because Trump was active Wednesday and Thursday ... remember, he held a fundraiser with hundreds of people. He did not reveal he was COVID positive until late Thursday.

Dr. Conley just said Trump's doing "very well," adding he does not have a fever anymore and is up and about in his hospital suite.

What Dr. Conley wouldn't answer -- if Trump has been on oxygen. He kept repeating Trump's not on oxygen "right now," but he repeatedly ignored reporters' questions as to whether he was on oxygen earlier. He finally said he was not on oxygen Thursday or Friday, but he simply would not say if Trump was ever on oxygen.

There was a gaggle of doctors and nurses at the news conference, but they dodged a number of questions, including how high Trump's temperature was.

Dr. Conley said Trump's symptoms were mild. -- nasal congestion, cough, a temperature, and lethargy. He says Trump is in his suite working, telling doctors, "I feel like I could walk out of here today."

There are reports a source with knowledge of Trump's health disputed the doctor's assessment, saying his condition was far more serious and he is by no means out of the woods.
