President Trump said he didn’t wear a face mask while honoring elderly World War II veterans—just one day after his personal valet tested positive for the coronavirus—because he was “very far away from them” and “they’re so pure, it will never happen”


“The trove of emails show the nation’s top public health experts at the CDC spending weeks working on guidance to help the country deal with a public health emergency, only to see their work quashed by political appointees with little explanation.”

Docs might call into question the legality of Trump changing his official address to Mar-a-Lago. Trump agreed in writing years ago make Mar-a-Lago a private club. The distinction is significant. The property is taxed as a private club — not as a residence.


Michael Flynn pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI. The Justice Dept compromised its integrity and independence by dropping the case. Barr has managed to sink even lower, politicizing the judicial system and further undermining the rule of law


Trump’s refusal to wear a mask isn’t just vanity — it’s also a fascist rejection of the duty to protect others


‘A cancer on justice in this nation’: Fresh demand for Barr’s resignation—or impeachment—after Flynn charges dropped


I love this so very much


This is what people don’t quite understand about my opponent, Kevin McCarthy. He’s a mini-Mitch — he may not be the obvious combatant like Devin Nunes or Jim Jordan, but he’s pulling strings for Trump in just an ostensibly less offensive packaging. This might make him the worst.


The President claims most of the countries view us as the world leader of the pandemic


Oh...My God. Trump says doing too much coronavirus testing makes the US 'look bad' as he pushes for the country to reopen

Coronavirus Found In Men’s Semen, Raising Possibility That Virus Could Be Sexually Transmitted


This is what GOPer John Kennedy said after he was asked about another round of stimulus checks: “Well people in hell want ice water too.” At least Republicans are being transparent about not giving any fucks for workers.


It’s exactly the opposite of this. Frequent testing means asymptomatic individuals can be IDed and isolated and then people like the president don’t get infected.


JUST IN: More than 75,000 people in Mass. have now tested positive for the new coronavirus, health officials said, announcing 150 new deaths


You're right. So what he will run on is DESTRUCTION +FEAR. They will attack Joe Biden like no Presidential candidate has EVER been attacked. And they will sow fear, with FOREIGN partners, on a level that will make 2016 look like Sesame Street. Trump & Co will spend BILLIONS

Trump: "I feel about vaccines like I feel about tests. This is going to go away without a vaccine, it's gonna go away, and we're not going to see it again, hopefully, after a period of time. You may have some flare-ups..." Then says he doesn't necessarily mean it goes this year.

A coincidence, surely

KUSH: Take for example Putin's friend the king of diamonds who's involved in corruption in every part of the solar system - maybe we have a thing with him, or private equity - who can tell these guys apart! HIMES: So that guy is Russian. KUSH: You say that like it's bad.


KUSH: I have no idea how much Russian money we've taken, and I left that part of my SF-86 blank, but oh yeah, we took money from the guy who infiltrated Facebook. HIMES: God you are a douche.

HIMES: So you had never heard of the sanctioned Russian bank that financed your father-in-law's hotel that your right-hand man met with during the f**king Transition? KUSH: Nope! He didn't even want to know about pizza!

Trump on CA reopening amid the coronavirus: "People want to get back to work ... I see what's going on & Newsom has been very generous to me in his statements & I appreciate it but I think they can move a little quicker in CA to be honest, & I think the people are forcing it."

Trump lies and says FBI Director Christopher Wray was "appointed by Rod Rosenstein" (he was nominated by Trump). He then adds that "in theory, I'm chief law enforcement officer."


TRUMP: "There's been no president -- and you can ask Putin about this -- that's been tougher on Russia than I have" (I'm not sure Putin, who spent millions of dollars to get Trump elected, is the best source on that ... )


Trump is ramping up his vaguely threatening, show trial rhetoric toward Obama: "What you've seen so far is incredible, especially as it relates to President Obama, because if anyone thinks that he and sleepy Joe Biden didn't know what was going on, they have another thing coming"


As '#Plandemic' goes viral, those targeted by discredited scientist's crusade warn of 'dangerous' claims Initially pushed by anti-vaccination disinformation peddlers, the video was then promoted by minor celebrities.


April job losses were 25 times worse than the worst month of the Great Recession. We have the worst unemployment since the Great Depression, and these numbers don't capture millions who lost jobs. It may be a long time before they get back to work. This did not have to happen.


The DOJ didn't merely drop the Flynn case. It’s deeper than that. The bombshell DOJ filing renounced years of legal arguments put forward by Mueller and career prosecutors. With that gone. the DOJ then synced up with Trump’s views on the case. Analysis -->

Without that reallocation, some nurses still in the hospitals are taking on extra tasks in their already grueling 12-hour shifts. They're mopping rooms, changing sheets, taking out the trash and arranging rides because the people who once did that are gone.

Trump declared CV over in America so he can send our supplies to America's Boss.


So to work in Trump's White House you need a COVID test everyday, but to work in Trump's America you don't need to be tested at all. Makes perfect sense.


Bill Barr is a Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade balloon from an old cartoon from a bygone era, inflated by a rogue parade group, foisted back into the procession, and crashing into an apartment windows killing innocent parade watchers. He should be deflated and locked back in storage..

One of Tara Reade's new attorneys donated $55,000 to Trump in 2016. The other is a former writer and editor for a Russian propaganda network.


By dropping the case against Flynn, the Justice Dept lost 50 years worth of ground in maintaining its independence post-Watergate. Once again, Bill Barr is doing Trump's dirty work. And once again, Barr has undermined the legitimacy of our justice system and the rule of law.


Trump vows to act stupidly by completely ending Obamacare despite the pandemic, if his packed High Court will do the dirty deed for him! He doesn’t want to kill thousands— he wants to kill millions! He is truly an idiot, and pathological.


“Feel free to lie to the FBI.” - Trump 2020


If you want to know why we have no national testing program, you just need to listen to what Trump said yesterday: “By doing all this testing,” Trump said, “we make ourselves look bad.” The lack of tests isn’t accidental. It’s by design


President Trump doesn’t care about you. He doesn’t care about your health. He doesn’t care about your family. He doesn’t care about testing. He just cares that his cronies are taken care of.


QAnon believers — plenty of whom are convinced that Flynn is the mysterious "Q" behind their conspiracy theory — are going to go absolutely wild over Justice dropping the Flynn charges.


Real presidents lead. Reality TV presidents don’t

I’m retweeting this, not because it turned out to be right but because we need the reminder that when someone tells you who they are, you should believe them. Believe Trump, Pence, Barr, McConnell & all the rest. Be ready to vote & restore the rule of law.


Who are the authors of the motion to dismiss the case against Michael Flynn? Usually their names would be on the brief. I doubt US Atty Timothy Shea wrote it by himself.


Normally Russia wouldn't be mentioned in the discussion of a woman with a claim of sexual assault, but you made it too easy for us in Tara Reade's case. She's spent the past few years writing tributes to Putin.


Barr is corrupt. He doesn’t care that you know it


BREAKING: A white father and son in Georgia have been arrested and charged with the murder of a black man on a residential street, after a national outcry that no arrests had been made.

Imo, Trump no longer has any allegiance with the United States. That part is done. So I guess technically we have an enemy combatant in the WH.


I’m no lawyer, so I won’t comment on Flynn from that perspective. But I was an intel officer, and I can tell you there are serious counterintelligence issues. Flynn should never have a clearance again.
