Global – 6,200,000/378,000; USA – 1,800,000/106,000 No TF today. Only a Governors call on Nursing Homes to which I was not invited. Probably mostly Seema Verma. Also, despite people (including Kellyanne Conway) assuring me that we are returning to 3x/week press briefings without the POTUS (i.e. with the VP), nonetheless, the press briefing today was Kayleigh by herself at the podium. Had breakfast at my house this AM (6:30 – 7:30 AM) on the back deck with Michael Caputo who wanted to discuss with me Comms strategy involving me. Good conversation. He says that there really is confusion at the level of the WH about putting me out. Clearly Alyssa wants to put me out there (not for every request, but certainly not 0 for 8 on a given week. He says that Alexa Hennings is the scheduler who books TV appearances in the one blocking me for unclear reasons. He will try to fix that sine he spoke with Alyssa over the phone yesterday (likely as a result of my meeting her outside the WH) and Alyssa wants to get me on more. Complicated situation. Also, Michael want me to do more PSAs and even a documentary. He is trying to establish novel paradigms for COMMS involving me. Also, we spoke a lot about his history with Russia and Roger Stone. He and his family have been greatly harassed by Antifa and he understands my harassment by the dark web. He is clearly an unusual guy who has been operating “at the edge” for some time. However, he seems like a pretty good human being. Anthony Fauci namesake is a favorite at Belmont Park By Justin Tasch

| 9:21am | Updated Dr. Anthony Fauci Getty Images composite Fauci could be a big winner Wednesday. No, not Dr. Anthony Fauci, the infectious disease expert, but the horse named after him which will run in the third race at Belmont Park today as racing returns to Elmont, the first sporting event in New York in 80 days. Fauci, jockeyed by Tyler Gaffalione and trained by Wesley Ward, is a 4-to-5 favorite. Had a very difficult experience today. The POTUS called my cell and screamed at me because I had mentioned to the Press (likely on a Howard Bauchner podcast or a Politico interview that the duration of immunity for common coronaviruses was 6 months to 1 year and that although we do not know the duration of vaccine immunity, it is possible that we may have to use additional boosts. Apparently the press blew this up and said that the vaccine will only protect for a very short time. The POTUS was very angry. He said I cannot keep doing this to him. He said he lover me but the country is in trouble and I am making it worse. He said the stock market only went up 600 points and it should have gone up 1000 points and so I cost the country $1 trillion. Quite a phone call. 10:00 PM – Katie Miller called me up and said she had a message from the POTUS and the VP. Both of them (POTUS and VP) asked Katie to tell me that they both loved me and are sorry about what happened. They understand and feel that the press will continue to pit me against the POTUS and so please be careful. PRESS: Politico interview with Sarah Wheaton
