In mid-March, Pete Massaro felt like he was in over his head. The global coronavirus pandemic was spreading quickly through the U.S., and Massaro, an engineer at Verily, the life sciences unit owned by Alphabet Inc., had suddenly been tasked with heading up the company’s efforts to help speed testing people for Covid-19, the disease caused by the virus.

He now had three days to open two drive-through testing sites. It was a tall order. Massaro’s team would have to find suitable locations, staff them, source supplies and figure out how to safely do the tests.

Then, adding to the stress, President Donald Trump announced out of the blue that Google, Verily’s sister unit under the Alphabet umbrella, was working on a nationwide system to

Howard Stern Tells Trump’s Supporters: He ‘Despises’ You Would Never Let You Into His Hotels

It’s the ultimate irony: Howard Stern claimed that Donald Trump is not so fond of his MAGA fan club. The outspoken radio host, who was once pals with the 73-year-old POTUS (Trump even attended Howards’ 2008 wedding), shared this revelation during his SiriusXM show on May 12. “One thing Donald loves is celebrities, he loves the famous. He loves it. He loves to be in the mix,” Howard told his listeners. He insisted Trump much prefers A-listers over his blue collar supporters — which is why he likened Trump’s predicament to an episode of The Twilight Zone, since the current commander in chief has essentially lost Hollywood’s favor.

This isn’t the first time that President Donald Trump has talked down to CBS White House correspondent Weijia Jiang, 35, for asking tough questions, but it was certainly the ugliest. During a May 11 coronavirus update, Jiang asked the 73-year-old about why he seemingly makes the U.S. COVID-19 testing progress into a global competition against other countries. He then told the Chinese-born, Asian-American journalist that her question was “nasty” and repeatedly told her to “ask China” in a non-answer. And it all went downhill from there.
