It’s Wednesday, and this is your politics tip sheet. Where things stand - Joe Biden told reporters yesterday that he would decide on a running mate by next week. “I’m going to have a choice in the first week in August, and I promise I’ll let you know when I do,” he said. Biden had previously named Aug. 1 as his rough deadline for choosing a vice-presidential nominee. - During the primary campaign, Biden committed to choosing a woman as his running mate, and in recent months his team has thoroughly vetted a wide range of contenders. - The Times has done a series of deep dives into the women said to be under consideration.

Before the speech, Biden’s campaign also released a racial-justice policy plan containing further details on the proposal. - After toning down his public statements about the coronavirus last week, [President Trump appears to be back to his old ways](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhA9vJP0TpaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wNy8yOC90ZWNobm9sb2d5L3ZpcnVzLXZpZGVvLXRydW1wLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTYmZW1jPWVkaXRfY25fMjAyMDA3MjkmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MjA3MzUmbmw9b24tcG9saXRpY3Mtd2l0aC1saXNhLWxlcmVyJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0zNDYyMiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKAD7JViFfUAzhNVIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA). On Monday night he shared a video — which quickly went viral — showing people in doctor’s coats making a series of misleading claims about the virus. - In the video, a woman identifying herself as Dr. Stella Immanuel, a Houston physician, states that the anti-malaria drug hydroxychloroquine is an effective treatment for the disease and that people “don’t need masks” to slow the virus’s spread. Studies have failed to prove that hydroxychloroquine combats the virus, but they have shown that it can result in severe side effects. - The video spread quickly, even as Twitter, Facebook and YouTube worked to remove it. The president, his son Donald Trump Jr. and the conservative news site Breitbart all shared it.

I don’t even read them. So I don’t really want to go there. I just will continue to do my job, no matter what comes out.” - The leaders of the country’s second largest teachers’ union said that “safety strikes” [should be on the table in school districts that force students to return](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhA9vJP4QlAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjAvMDcvMjgvd29ybGQvY29yb25hdmlydXMtY292aWQtMTkuaHRtbD9hY3Rpb249Y2xpY2smY2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTYmZW1jPWVkaXRfY25fMjAyMDA3MjkmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MjA3MzUmbW9kdWxlPVRvcCtTdG9yaWVzJm5sPW9uLXBvbGl0aWNzLXdpdGgtbGlzYS1sZXJlciZwZ3R5cGU9SG9tZXBhZ2UmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTM0NjIyJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkNyNsaW5rLTU0MWJkYzQwVwNueXRCCgA-yVYhX1AM4TVSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~) to in-person classes under unsafe conditions. Randi Weingarten, the head of the American Federation of Teachers, issued the threat yesterday in a speech for the union’s convention. - “Just as we have done with our health care workers, we will fight on all fronts for the safety of students and their educators,” she said. “But if the authorities don’t protect the safety and health of those we represent and those we serve, as our executive council voted last week, nothing is off the table.” - Lily Eskelsen García, the head of the larger National Education Association, concurred yesterday in a statement of her own. “Nobody wants to see students back in the classroom more than educators,” she wrote. “But when it comes to their safety, we’re not ready to take any options off the table.” - The A.F.T. adopted a resolution this month stating that schools should reopen only in areas where the positive coronavirus test rate is below 5 percent — widely considered to be an indicator that the virus is relatively under control. - Weingarten spoke to Fauci last night in a [video chat](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhA9vJP0TQaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cueW91dHViZS5jb20vd2F0Y2g_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTYmZW1jPWVkaXRfY25fMjAyMDA3MjkmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MjA3MzUmbmw9b24tcG9saXRpY3Mtd2l0aC1saXNhLWxlcmVyJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0zNDYyMiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDcmdj1XeFcwck5ub0tuY1cDbnl0QgoAPslWIV9QDOE1Uht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~) that was streamed on the A.F.T.’s YouTube channel, praising him for being “always honest and transparent with the American people.” - William Barr, the attorney general, came under fire yesterday from House Democrats who [accused him of dangerously enabling the president and weakening the rule of law](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhA9vJP4QLAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjAvMDcvMjgvdXMvcG9saXRpY3Mvd2lsbGlhbS1iYXJyLWhvdXNlLWp1ZGljaWFyeS1oZWFyaW5nLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTYmZW1jPWVkaXRfY25fMjAyMDA3MjkmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MjA3MzUmbmw9b24tcG9saXRpY3Mtd2l0aC1saXNhLWxlcmVyJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0zNDYyMiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDcjbGluay02NWNjYzI3MlcDbnl0QgoAPslWIV9QDOE1Uht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~). - During Barr’s first congressional testimony in over a year, members of the House Judiciary Committee sharply questioned his decision to drop charges against Michael Flynn, the president’s former national security adviser, who had pleaded guilty to perjury, and his choice to overrule career prosecutors and recommend a shorter prison sentence for Roger Stone, the president’s longtime friend and adviser. - “You have aided and abetted the worst failings of the president,” said Representative Jerrold Nadler, the committee’s chairman. “The message these actions send is clear: In this Justice Department, the president’s enemies will be punished and his friends will be protected, no matter the cost to liberty, no matter the cost to justice.” - Democrats also criticized Barr for supporting Trump’s crackdown on protesters across the country, whereas Republicans praised him for it. - Barr has repeatedly echoed Trump’s unfounded assertion that mail-in voting could lead to widespread voter fraud, and in his testimony he doubled down on the claim. “I think there is a high risk that it will,” he said. “If you have wholesale mail-in voting, it increases the risk of fraud.” - There’s no factual basis for this argument, as indicated by the [experiences](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRhA9vJP0TjaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vYXJ0aWNsZS9tYWlsLWluLXZvdGUtZnJhdWQtYmFsbG90Lmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTYmZW1jPWVkaXRfY25fMjAyMDA3MjkmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MjA3MzUmbmw9b24tcG9saXRpY3Mtd2l0aC1saXNhLWxlcmVyJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0zNDYyMiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKAD7JViFfUAzhNVIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA) of states that have expanded access to voting by mail amid the pandemic.
