Biden To Transfer Power To Kamala As Oldest US President Heads For First Physical

 

As President Biden heads for his first physical as president, The White House has issued a statement confirming that Kamala Harris will (briefly) become US President.

 

This morning, the President will travel to Walter Reed Medical Center for a routine physical. While he is there, the President will undergo a routine colonoscopy.

 

As was the case when President George W. Bush had the same procedure in 2002 and 2007, and following the process set out in the Constitution, President Biden will transfer power to the Vice President for the brief period of time when he is under anesthesia. The Vice President will work from her office in the West Wing during this time.

Later this afternoon, the White House will publicly release a written summary of the President's physical.

 

The question is - will she relinquish that power?

President Joe Biden will travel to Walter Reed Medical Center in the morning for a “routine annual physical,” press secretary Jen Psaki said in a statement. There was no physical listed on the daily schedule the White House released on Thursday.

FDA Clears Moderna’s Covid-19 Booster for All U.S. Adults

 

Covid-19 booster shots from Moderna Inc. and the partnership of Pfizer Inc. and BioNTech SE were cleared by U.S. regulators for all Americans 18 and older, making millions more people eligible for extra protection as concern about a potential winter wave of infections grows.

 

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said adults who received their second dose of the company’s shots at least six months ago are now eligible to receive a third, according to separate statements from the companies and the agency on Friday. Moderna shares gained 5.6% in premarket trading in New York. Shares of Pfizer rose 1.7%, while BioNTech’s American depositary receipts added 1.4%

 

A panel of experts who advise the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on vaccine policies are expected to review the evidence and make further guidance for administering booster shots at a meeting on Friday afternoon.

 

Booster shots of messenger RNA vaccines have been available for people 65 and over, as well as others who could be at higher risk of severe disease, since mid-September. Under federal guidelines, recipients can receive any of the three authorized shots as a booster, regardless of the brand of their initial vaccine.

 

More than a third of fully vaccinated seniors had received a booster as of Thursday, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and 17% of fully vaccinated adults overall have had an additional shot.

'''U.S. Labor Chief to Meet Truckers on Supply Chains in L.A. Trip-in "a couple of weeks"

 

U.S. Labor Secretary Marty Walsh plans to meet with key members of the transport industry in Los Angeles to discuss supply-chain issues at the nation’s biggest port that are fueling goods shortages and inflation.

 

“We have to make sure that we ease that supply chain -- the president’s very focused on turning the ports into 24-7” operations, Walsh said in an interview on Bloomberg Television’s “Balance of Power” with David Westin to be broadcast Friday. “I’m going out to Los Angeles in a couple of weeks to talk to some trucking companies and the ports about how do we continue to stay on top of that.”

 

The Los Angeles-Long Beach port complex has been dealing with record-breaking backlogs since the summer that have hardly eased despite ramped-up operations and the involvement of a White House-led task force. The American Trucking Associations has said the country has a current shortage of about 80,000 drivers, with the figure set to swell to 160,000 in 2030. Crucial equipment such as chassis which are hooked to trucks to move loaded containers at ports are also in short supply, with tariffs on imported ones from China placing strain on logistics, according to Weston LaBar, head of strategy at digital freight-brokerage company Cargomatic Inc.

 

Persistent supply-chain constraints have contributed to quickening inflation, with prices climbing at the fastest annual rate since 1990 in October. Economists have been ratcheting up their forecasts for price gains through 2022.

 

When asked about inflation and how it’s eating into wage gains, Walsh indicated that President Joe Biden’s two longer-term fiscal packages an infrastructure program enacted last month and a social-spending bill that awaits passage by the Senate would help to address rising living costs.

 

“If you have more supply of product and you have people earning more money, I would say that’s a recipe for success,” Walsh said.

Chinese vessel may have entered Japanese waters

 

Japan's Defense Ministry says it believes that a Chinese naval vessel entered Japanese waters near remote islands in the southern prefecture of Kagoshima. Ministry officials say that the Chinese ship was confirmed to be sailing westward from a contiguous zone south of Yakushima Island toward Japan's territorial waters on Wednesday night. They say the vessel was then navigating westward before dawn on Thursday in Japan's contiguous zone west of Kuchinoerabu Island. The ministry says it has determined that the naval ship entered Japanese territorial waters. The officials say it was the first time that a Chinese naval vessel has entered Japanese territorial waters since July 2017.
