Trump instituted a major loosening of ethics standards when compared with the administration of his predecessor, Barack Obama, as well as the rules that will govern President Joe Biden's White House. Trump signed the one-page revocation of the ethics order on Tuesday, and it was released by the White House shortly after 1 a.m. Wednesday, hours before his term ended. The Trump White House did not respond to a request for comment on Wednesday morning. Those who depart toward the end of Biden’s tenure will be prohibited from lobbying the White House for at least two years. The ethics order was described by a Biden transition official on the condition of anonymity because the order has not yet been made public.

Funding for states has become a major stumbling block for the broader bill, with Republicans seeing it as a bailout for what they call badly managed and high-tax blue states. However, states headed by Democratic governors will receive $89 billion more than states headed by GOP governors. Using that metric, the average red state will receive about $1,066 per person, or $322 less per person than in the blue states. Four of them voted Democratic in 2016 and have Democratic governors; three voted Republican in 2016 and have Republican governors. A Trump administration official who asked not to be named focused on the breakdown by governor-led states in the CNBC analysis and called it "a bailout for poorly run blue states."

Biden's campaign then suggested the event be delayed a week until Oct. 22, which is when the third and final debate was already scheduled. The Oct. 22 debate in Nashville, Tennessee, is scheduled to feature a format similar to the first. Biden’s campaign has suggested that it be modified to the “town meeting” format, though the Trump campaign has not weighed in. As he campaigned in Arizona, Biden said he would indeed attend the Oct. 22 debate. Trump fell ill with the virus on Oct. 1, just 48 hours after sharing a stage with Biden in person during the first presidential debate in Cleveland.

President Trump’s brief hospitalization for COVID-19 could raise the stakes for Wednesday’s debate between Vice President Mike Pence and California Sen. Kamala Harris. Historically, vice presidential debates — like an opening act ahead of the main event — have drawn significantly lower viewership. AdvertisementThere has never been a vice presidential debate that has decided the outcome of a presidential race. The exception, according to Pew, was in 2008 when more people watched the vice presidential debate between Biden and then-Alaska Gov. Some have even called for the Commission on Presidential Debates to do away with vice presidential debates entirely.

President Donald Trump on Tuesday said that he's looking forward to next week's debate with former Vice President Joe Biden as scheduled.

Chris Christie, seen in an AP photo with his arm around another guest while chatting up several face to face, announced his positive virus test this weekend. Trump’s campaign manager, Bill Stepien, who attended the debate and helped him prepare with Christie, has tested positive for COVID-19. White House officials said they began learning of Hicks’ positive test after Trump boarded Marine One to start his journey to New Jersey. Despite the abject failure to keep the president protected from the virus, White House officials defended their current protocols as well thought out. And masks still won't be required on the White House grounds for all West Wing employees.

A source close to the Commission on Presidential Debates told NBC News that no final decisions have been made on the changes. The initial debate between Trump and Biden in Cleveland on Tuesday night quickly descended into disorder, with frequent name-calling and interruptions. Trump on several occasions resisted moderator Chris Wallace's admonitions to follow the rules and to allow the former vice president Biden to speak uninterrupted.

Biden told reporters at a campaign event in Ohio that he supported the idea of making changes to the debate format.

Joe Biden and his party scored a huge fundraising windfall during and after Tuesday night's acrimonious debate with President Donald Trump. The Democratic fundraising website ActBlue processed close to $8 million between 9 p.m. and 11 p.m. Biden campaign officials told reporters late Tuesday they raised $3.8 million between 10 p.m. and 11 p.m. through ActBlue, which they said was the site's one-hour record. As of early Wednesday, the Trump campaign, the Republican National Committee and a representative for GOP donation website WinRed had not announced fundraising hauls.

WASHINGTON The University of Notre Dame has become the second university to withdraw as the host of one of this fall's three scheduled presidential debates amid the coronavirus pandemic. The university was set to host the inaugural face-off between President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden on Sept. 29. The first debate will now be hosted by Case Western Reserve University and Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, the nonpartisan Commission on Presidential Debates announced Monday. The commission has selected Cleveland Clinic as its health adviser for all three presidential debates and the one scheduled vice presidential debate.

So, they get this temporary heart failure and the symptoms can actually be pretty severe enough where they can almost mimic the signs of a heart attack, Adesina said. Cleveland Clinic researchers found cases of broken heart syndrome doubled in two of their hospitals in March and April, which is the same time the pandemic ramped up job losses, isolation and concerns surrounding coronavirus. They now believe extreme stress during the pandemic could be causing this increase of broken heart syndrome among the general public. He said its not just high emotions that can trigger broken heart syndrome but also an infection. That means both people with increased worries right now and those with a COVID-19 infection are at risk for this syndrome.

The people declined to be named because they were not authorized by Cleveland Clinic to speak on behalf of their organization. The telemedicine provider powering the service is a privately-held company called American Well. Because of the problems, one of the doctors said patients are becoming frustrated with the wait times and hanging up. Cleveland Clinic did not immediately respond to a request for comment. "Certain geographies where the public impact of the virus is highest have seen wait times sky rocket from 5 to 10 minutes to 60 to 70 minutes," he wrote.

Doctors at the Cleveland Clinic have performed the world's first kidney transplant using a single-port robot. CLEVELAND, Ohio - Doctors at the Cleveland Clinic have performed the world's first kidney transplant using a single-port robot, according to a release from the Cleveland Clinic. The single-port kidney transplant enables all surgical instruments and the donor kidney to be placed through one small abdominal incision. Dr. Jihad Kaouk and his team were the first hospital in the country to successfully perform a robotic single-port prostatectomy and kidney cancer surgery in September 2018. This robotic single-port technique could be an alternative for patients dealing with obesity or challenging anatomy, doctors say.

It was the first time the Cleveland Clinic did the surgery laparoscopically making a few tiny incisions in the abdomen to remove a piece of the liver. CLEVELAND, Ohio - The Cleveland Clinic just completed a unique liver transplant surgery, and they're hoping it encourages more people to step forward to help save lives. The surgery was done by Dr. Choon Hyuck David Kwon, who said only about 5 % of liver donations come from living donors. Dr. Kwon, the director of Laparoscopic Surgery at the Cleveland Clinic, said he hopes the minimally invasive surgery encourages more donors to consider making a liver donation. The surgery was done in August, with Nikko Velazquez donating a piece his liver to his girlfriend's father, Abraham Aviv.

A healthy sleep schedule includes seven to nine hours of rest per night for the average adult. However, a new study shows that it's not just duration but the consistency of our sleep habits that impact our overall health.

She said getting a good night's sleep starts with your sleep environment. But, maintaining that regularity in sleep schedule, is of paramount importance."

A healthy weight, as well as a healthy body image are important parts of growing up. Now, a recent study shows adolescents who eat breakfast regularly, with their parents, tend to have a more positive body image than those who skip their morning meal. They were also less likely to be eating breakfast with their parents.The study looked at data on 12,642 students. Thirty percent of students surveyed were not eating breakfast regularly, and only 17 percent reported eating breakfast every day. Adolescence is such a critical time for body image development theres such a focus on physical appearance during this time, and poor body image is just so common and it can be really damaging, she said.
