Trump announces new impeachment legal team

Biden’s has imposed a new travel ban into the U.S. for most non-citizens who have recently visited South Africa and reinstated bans affecting travel from Britain, Brazil, Ireland and much of Europe, as the coronavirus continues to rage across the nation a year after the first reported case on U.S. soil.

The White House announced the travel bans in a proclamation on Monday.

Biden last week predicted American deaths from COVID-19 will top 500,000 deaths next month.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki, asked whether the Biden administration had a timeline for putting Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill -- an Obama administration effort stalled throughout the Trump administration -- said the Treasury Department is exploring ways to "speed up" the process.

"The Treasury Department is taking steps to resume steps to put Harriet Tubman on the new $20 notes," Psaki told reporters.

"It's important our note -- our money -- reflect the history and diversity of our country, and Harriet Tubman's image gracing the new $20 note will reflect that," she added. "We're exploring ways to speed up that effort, but any specifics would come from the Department of Treasury."

Former President Donald Trump called the effort to put an image of Tubman -- an African American woman celebrated for her work freeing slaves during the Civil War -- on the $20 bill as "pure political correctness."

In 2016, the Treasury Department announced Tubman would replace former President Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill, as part of an effort to get more women on U.S. currency.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki, at her daily press briefing on Monday, said the Biden administration will "typically" hold COVID-19 briefings three times a week starting on Wednesday in an effort to be "transparent" with the public.

Asked when Biden expects to have his $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief proposal passed through Congress, as the administration pushes pandemic relief as their top priority, Psaki was careful not to promise a timeline.

"There's an urgency to moving it forward. And he certainly believes it needs to be -- there needs to be progress in the next couple of weeks," she said.

"He proposed his package. He's getting feedback. We're having conversations. We don't expect the final bill to look exactly the same as the first bill he proposed," she added, asked how Biden will get bipartisan support on the bill as some Republicans are pushing back on the price tag.

Biden last week predicted American deaths from COVID-19 will top 500,000 deaths next month. He's called on Americans to "mask up" for 100 days and has pledged to have 100 million vaccine shots into the arms of Americans in his first 100 days.

The Supreme Court Monday morning dismissed a pair of cases alleging that former President Donald Trump inappropriately profited off the presidency in violation of the Constitution's emoluments clause.

The move brings to an end a four-year challenge by Maryland, Washington, D.C., and a group of restaurants and hotels that alleged Trump's hotel in the nation's capital became a hub of foreign patronage and unfair competitive advantage.  

The cases put a spotlight on emoluments and gave the otherwise arcane constitutional provision a starring role in the Trump presidency.  

The Supreme Court declared both cases "moot" now that Trump has left office, but did not elaborate further on the decision. It did not provide a breakdown of how the justices may have voted.
