“"You should be saying congratulations," Trump lectures @yamiche, claiming her perfectly straightforward question was "snarky." Then, he turned on his heel and went back to the White House. More time was spent giving platforms to CEOs to speak than letting reporters ask q's”

Trump’s White House is once again in crisis. The Whistleblower report that surfaced this week charges among other things that the President of the United States abused the power of his office to solicit interference from a foreign country in the 2020...

The only change is the sheer rapidity and sadness of the effort.
Can you imagine being one of the Obama cabinet people who prepared as much as they could for this moment for years, only to have all those preparations thrown in the trash because eligible voters are idiots and our democracy is broken
"It's thanks to Obama's radical left agenda that we had 2,000 deaths because of the Chinese virus!"
He clearly confused Tokyo metro population with Seoul because of course they are all the same 🙄
And Donald asked Alcindor condescendingly if she knew just before incorrectly responding to his own question.

“Fine for Trump not to know population of Seoul off top of his head -- most Americans don't. But to claim "I know S.Kor better than anyone," then challenge reporter on whether she knows city population & then give a number that's off by 4X is ... odd.”

No. It's the same tactic as "some people are saying", or "my uncle at nintendo".
Oh my god. Oh my god. Does...does trump just skim the wikpiedia article, and then claim he knows more than anyone about whatever it is?! oh my god. And people think this chucklehead's going to beat Biden in the debates?!
My timeline was cursed with someone pointing out Gov. Cuomo's nipple piercing. I just want you all to think about it too.
Austin and El Paso have been shut down since the 17th, and Dallas and Houston since before then.
As of March 27th -
Just a heads up, oklahoma is NOT under a real lockdown, the list of essential businesses includes golf courses, furniture stores, GNC, etc.
Its just to make stitt look like he did something.
My fucking god dude, for real. The amount of frustration and pain would be enough to kill me where I stand. Just seeing all these fucking slashes and intentionally ignored warning signs and all the lying holy fuck man
Every eight years we swing back the pendulum because of Fox News and the obsession of nonpartisanship
You mean Seoul is 38 million people above sea level? Nobody knew that!
These are the new leads. And to you, they're gold. And you don't get them. Why? Because to give them to you is just throwing them away. They're for closers. I'd wish you good luck, but you wouldn't know what to do with it if you got it. And to answer your question, pal: Why am I here? I came here because Mitch and Mike asked me to, they asked me for a favor. I said the real favor, follow my advice and fire your fuckin' ass because a loser is a loser.
Can somebody overlay the music the Price Is Right plays when models are presenting the Showcase Showdown prizes available?
Because that's gotta be what's going in his head as he does this.
Yeah, I'm being generous with him, but I'm in a lighthearted mood, I suppose.

It's a complete joke. There are nearly 6,500 confirmed cases of the virus here as of today as it is.
Some impressions I got today is that, after Trump actually said 100,000 dead would be a good result yesterday, that even some more skeptical people are taking this the fuck seriously now. Realizing, hey, yeah, that's a fuckton of people even if we completely shape up today.
For fuck's sake.
WE NEED THIS DRUG MORE THAN YOU DO. Yes, even doctors on the front-lines. Taking a pill out of the mouth of a lupus patient sacrifices a certain and life-sustaining gain for a speculative and uncertain one. This is legally sanctioned hoarding of n95 masks. Leave the drug for people who need it.
I got to be involved in my county's response prepping for the H1N1 outbreak. They had that shit on lock. This? This makes me want to beat my head against a wall over how unprepared they STILL are.

Now part of the long list of women the president has insulted: a governor, a reporter, the head of General Motors and, of course, the House speaker.

I wonder if Markey is a praying man.
But seriously, this is great.
My sister has lupus and can't get the medicine now
my mom also has lupus
Watching CNN, I had no idea Chris Cuomo and Gov. Cuomo were brothers. Thought the interview was weirdly antagonistic until I realized that.
It was never about getting drugs and medicine to the people who needed it the most.
It was always about prioritizing the lives of the well over the lives of the disabled.

Judges block 3 states from enforcing abortion bans pegged to pandemic
Ohio, Iowa, Mississippi, Alabama and Oklahoma are among the other states that recently moved to suspend access.
www.politico.com
Federal judges on Monday lifted restrictions Texas and Ohio imposed on abortion during the coronavirus pandemic in decisions that could have repercussions for several more Republican-led states that have deemed the procedure non-essential during the crisis.
In Texas, District Court Judge Lee Yeakel sided with abortion clinics and granted a temporary restraining order through April 13 while arguments on the underlying legality of the state's order play out.
In Ohio, District Court Judge Michael Barrett similarly sided with Planned Parenthood and other groups challenging the state's ban and issued a two-week temporary restraining order.
Iowa, Mississippi, Alabama and Oklahoma are among the other states that recently moved to suspend access to the procedure as the pandemic intensified, arguing it would preserve desperately needed medical supplies. Texas' order was one of the strictest, threatening a $1,000 fine or 180 days of jail time on abortion providers who violated the ban.
Yeakel agreed with Texas clinics who argued that women who need an abortion can't live with a weeks- or possibly months-long delay. Clinic operators told reporters Monday that they've already had to cancel hundreds of appointments since the ban took effect last week.
On the more lighthearted end of things in the ongoing Cuomo v Cuomo TV interview feud, the governor teased Chris for seemingly having to broadcast from the governor's residence basement tonight.
Those two have been awesome the past few weeks.

So fucking tired of the "counter puncher" narrative
The audio of the governors conference call needs to be released, or at least a longer clip. I love that the guy is like I cant trace people if I cant test them to begin with, and Trumps like weve got the best tests, doing more testing than anywhere, havent heard of tests in weeks. Like wtf.
