A small number of protesters were outside the entrance to the club. One held a sign that read: "I care do you, 100,000 dead." Motorcade also passed a man giving a thumbs up, soon followed by a woman raising her middle finger.

Pool Report #6 - Brazil Announcement

Passing on this statement:

"Today, the President has taken decisive action to protect our country by suspending the entry of aliens who have been in Brazil during the 14-day period before seeking admittance to the United States. As of May 23, 2020, Brazil had 310,087 confirmed cases of COVID-19, which is the third highest number of confirmed cases in the world. Today's action will help ensure foreign nationals who have been in Brazil do not become a source of additional infections in our country. These new restrictions do not apply to the flow of commerce between the United States and Brazil." Kayleigh McEnany
