President Barack Obama, speaking in private this week, extolled what he said was the drama-free nature of his White House and said it was a "low bar" now to avoid embarrassing presidential scandals.It was a veiled but distinct jab at the current occupants of the West Wing, who have weathered a tumultuous year since Obama departed."We didn't have a scandal that embarrassed us," Obama said during closed-door remarks in Boston on Friday. Audio of the private speech -- delivered to hundreds of people attending a sports policy conference -- was obtained by the magazine Reason and published Monday. "I know that seems like a low bar.""Generally speaking, you didn't hear about a lot of drama inside our White House," he added.The oblique reference to President Donald Trump was one part of a lengthy speech Obama delivered at MIT's Sloan Sports Analytics Conference last week. Attendees were told the remarks were strictly off-the-record and that recording or reporting on them wasn't allowed.According to the audio obtained by Reason, Obama stuck largely to his post-presidential talking points, including bemoaning people who claim climate change doesn't exist."I can't have that same debate with somebody who just holds up a snowball in the middle of the Senate chamber in winter and says, 'look there's no climate change because it's snowing!' Which happened by the way. I didn't just make that up," he said, referring to a 2015 speech by Sen. James Inhofe, R-Oklahoma.He also expanded on the role social media platforms play in spreading false or toxic information, saying the US firms had a responsibility to reckon with their own responsibilities."I do think the large platforms -- Google and Facebook being the most obvious, Twitter and others as well, are part of that ecosystem -- have to have a conversation about their business model that recognizes they are a public good as well as a commercial enterprise," he said. "They're not just an invisible platform, they're shaping our culture in powerful ways."  2033

President Donald Trump lavished praise on China for the very trade practices he once lambasted as unfair during a remarkable morning session in Beijing.Emerging after two hours of talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping, Trump said he doesn't fault China for taking advantage of differences between the way the two countries do business."I don't blame China," Trump said during remarks to business leaders inside the Great Hall of the People. "After all, who can blame a country for being able to take advantage of another country for benefit of their citizens? I give China great credit." 597

President Donald Trump plans to take a victory lap Tuesday as the U.S. grows ever closer to approving two COVID-19 vaccine candidates for Emergency Use Authorization.Trump will appear live at the White House Tuesday at an "Operation Warp Speed Vaccine Summit," where senior administration officials say he will encourage Americans to get vaccinated when the drugs become available and thank operation leaders for their work in approving and delivering the vaccines.The pending authorization of vaccines made by Pfizer and Moderna marks a key turning point in the pandemic and offers a glimpse at a return to normalcy.Their approval also marks a medical miracle — the development of the drugs took less than a year, shattering the previous record of vaccine development by nearly three full years.But Trump's event is being held just hours after reports surfaced that his administration declined the opportunity to purchase an additional 100 million doses of Pfizer's vaccine candidate — a move that could further delay the U.S. push for herd immunity against COVID-19, as Pfizer must now fill substantial orders for vaccines from other countries.Trump plans to sign an executive order that will attempt to give the U.S. priority in getting vaccines ahead of other countries. However, the order does not appear to have legal teeth.When asked about the order on ABC's Good Morning America on Tuesday, Dr. Moncef Slaoui — Operation Warp Speed's chief vaccine adviser — said he could not explain the order and chose not to comment. 1535

President Donald Trump on multiple occasions raised with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and Matt Whitaker, who was then-chief of staff to Jeff Sessions, whether the Justice Department was progressing in investigating Hillary Clinton, according to a source familiar with the matter.The President also wanted his previous White House counsel, Don McGahn, to ask the Justice Department to prosecute Clinton on numerous occasions, but McGahn rebuffed doing that, the source said.Anticipating the question about Clinton would be raised, Whitaker came prepared to answer with what Justice was doing on Clinton-related matters, including the Clinton Foundation and Uranium One investigations, the source said. The source added that Whitaker was trying to appease the President, but did not seem to cross any line.The New York Times first reported on Trump's requests to McGahn to prosecute Clinton, as well as former FBI Director James Comey.The Justice Department did not immediately respond to CNN's requests for comment.In March, then-Attorney General Sessions revealed that Utah's top federal prosecutor, John Huber, was looking into allegations that the FBI abused its powers in surveilling a former Trump campaign adviser, and claims that more should have been done to investigate Clinton's ties to a Russian nuclear energy agency, which have not been proven.And in January, CNN reported that the US attorney and FBI in Arkansas were investigating allegations of corruption related to the Clinton Foundation. The FBI and federal prosecutors are looking into whether donors to the foundation were improperly promised policy favors or special access to Clinton while she was secretary of state in exchange for donations to the charity's coffers, as well as whether tax-exempt funds were misused, the official said. A spokesman for Clinton dismissed the allegations as unfounded.William Burck, a lawyer for McGahn, issued a statement following the Times report that said the President hadn't ordered prosecutions of Clinton or Comey."Mr. McGahn will not comment on his legal advice to the president. Like any client, the president is entitled to confidentiality. Mr. McGahn would point out, though, that the president never, to his knowledge, ordered that anyone prosecute Hillary Clinton or James Comey," Burck said.The White House did not immediately respond to CNN's requests for comment.This is a breaking story and will be updated.The-CNN-Wire 2460
