President Trump is moving forward with his rallies. He held his second indoor event in two days in Phoenix, Arizona on Monday. People packed the event, few wore masks and there was no social distancing except for the President himself. 

This comes as Trump's final phone call with legendary journalist Bob Woodward comes to light. CNN obtained excerpts of the 10-minute conversation, which shows Trump told Woodward, "nothing more could have been done," in regard to the coronavirus.Officials within The White House Administration have been altering the CDC's weekly science reports, according to sources. A federal official told CNN, the Trump administration alters the CDC's weekly science reports so they don't undermine Trump and are consistent with Trump's message on the virus. 

The manhunt is intensifying for the gunman who ambushed two Los Angeles County sheriff deputies. Both deputies remain in the hospital. They are expected to survive. Nearly 90 large wildfires are burning throughout the western United States. Trump visited California Monday to be briefed on the fires. He laughed about the science of climate change. So far, California wildfires have burned an area almost the size of Connecticut.
