NEW: Stephen Miller has tested positive for COVID, per senior administration official. Adds Miller has been working remotely for last 5 days, testing negative every day through yesterday, and is in quarantine after a positive test today.
Classy move by @Jordanfabian. And a big thanks to him from our team at @NBCNews. Follow-up questions are a part of our jobs, and it's helpful to be able to ask them.
NEW: I’m told that not only did the president not reach out to Vice President Pence on Wednesday night - he has not called him since, per a source familiar with the matter. It’s an extraordinary detail. I’ve asked the White House for comment, but so far no response.
He wasn't just a good boy - he was the best. Dawkins died yesterday, passing away peacefully after a difficult fight with terminal brain cancer. I loved him so much, and I'm so lucky to have so many happy memories with him. instagram.com/p/CUM_1PegEhZ/…

French television cameras spotted President Trump sitting down with Fox’s Laura Ingraham - fourteen minutes *after* the ceremony in Normandy was set to begin. Thousands of people waited as an announcement overhead came on, declaring the program would be delayed until 11:15a.
If the White House banned a fellow reporter from an open-press event because of her shouted questions, let's be clear: it is inexcusable, unacceptable, and sets an extremely dangerous precedent.
We shout questions at the president regularly. It's called: doing our job.
