@Unionhawk what the fuck?

Man Dies, Wife Critical From Chloroquine After Hearing Trump Tout Unproven Covid-19 Treatment

“Universal vote by mail would be the end of our republic as we know it.” — Rep Thomas Massie (R-KY)

This is bullshit on a scale off of the best bullshit charts scientists have

“I’m scared that if people aren’t unable to vote I’ll lose” is a corollary

@Stormblessed more that it would be harder to suppress votes easily by closing down voting stations

"waaaaa, i can't discriminate against the people who vote against me by making it harder for them to vote against me"

@Memor-X Well if it stayed like this only crazy Trump people would vote in person

@Stormblessed all the while coughing on each other because COVID-19 is just the flu, they'll get over it

Unfortunately kentucky is not a "no questions asked" absentee state

you have to be old, genuinely absent from the state but still eligible and registered, or sick

Tsunami warning for west coast of North America following 7.8 earthquake off Kuril islands

@TimStone NWS Portland: data still being analyzed as of 23 mins ago by National Tsunami Center

Seattle a minute earlier says they currently think it’s fine

Weather.gov has Hawaii threatened

Not any of the contiguous west coast

No updates since beginning on tsunami.gov

> Colorado now becomes the 22nd state to end the use of capital punishment

No danger to west coast — WA, OR, BC, CA, & AK are fine

the update has nothing about Hawaii though so watch out if you're there

hawaiinewsnow.com/2020/03/25/…

tsunamiwatch has been canceled for Hawaii as well CC @Stormblessed

oh man, this is crazy. So there is a village in Belgium/Netherlands, Baarle-Hertog/Baarle-Nassau, that's a smattering of enclaves and exclaves, with some stores being half in one country, half in the other. Turns out that some stores need to close off the parts that are in Belgium because they are considered Belgian stores

washingtonpost.com/business/on-small-business/…

I'm surprised they managed to get that in, but maybe Trump simply didn't know it was put in there

An update to the Trolly Problem for 2020

Oh, @Unionhawk already posted it. I failed.

@Nzall oh wow I remember learning about that in school once.

I know there's some stuff like bars closing at different times in the two

is there anything so valuable that they can't make the border just a line of some sort?

@Stormblessed yeah, well, this is even crazier: stores that have their front door in Belgium need to completely close. Stores that have their front door in Netherlands and part of their store in Belgium can keep their Netherlands part open, but they need to cordon off their Belgian store, including all goods in that store. This has lead to some situations like a clothes store that can't sell lingerie because it's in the Belgian part

lol

@MadScientist So apparently the Senate will vote on this and then…go on recess until April 20th?

Which uhhh

I wonder if there are any places at all like that in the US

like the cities like Texarkana — any weird business restrictions that affect some stores that are halfway between the states?

Like I get not wanting to show up just because under the circumstances but maybe stick around in case the active pandemic gets even worse idk

@TimStone wait what?

We should not have recess anymore

like just stop it, you don't have time to play outside

Yeah, I dunno 🤷🏼‍♂️

prince Charles has it

It's too bad, I went to Spain and Italy just a few months ago, now I don't know if I'll be able to go back for years

really nice places, too

the deaths in Spain are above China now

did we get the worker protections and sick leave for more people or did they give up on that?

> But most Sanders voters don’t fit that description. According to a recent Morning Consult poll, 82 percent of Sanders supporters say they would vote for Biden in the general election, and just 7 percent said they would vote for Trump. And Quinnipiac University found that 86 percent of Sanders voters would vote for Biden, 3 percent would vote for Trump, 2 percent would vote for someone else, 4 percent wouldn’t vote, and 5 percent didn’t know who they’d vote for.

ok so I have determined that Twitter Is Not Real Life

Of all the terrible centrists to consolidate around though why did they have to pick joe lol

still though Biden really ought to support the wealth tax, not to win voters (I mean he could get some) but just as a thing we need

I agree Joe should have better politics

@Unionhawk I think the main reason is definitely Obama, which lead to support among African-Americans

like I don't think I ever heard about him in the time between 2016 and 2018

I can't wait for nothing to fundamentally change

it's going to rock

@Unionhawk he's going to pass essential stuff like gun control, major electoral reform, some criminal justice, getting more people in college, and more

that is a lot of change

Joe Biden is 100% not going to do electoral reform lol

like other than climate these are some very major changes in policy

> Biden has advocated for public financing of federal campaigns since the very beginning of his Senate career. He first co-sponsored legislation to create a public financing system for House and Senate candidates in 1973. In 1997 and many years afterward, he co-sponsored a constitutional amendment that would have limited contributions as well as corporate and private spending in elections and prevented the damage caused by the Supreme Court in Citizens United.

I'll give you the rest maybe, but a guy who benefits from the system being exactly as it is now is not going to change it

Why should he

Why would he

to improve the system

The liberal party in Canada promised the same but guess what they benefit from being able to tell NDP voters that "hey you're splitting the left and should vote for me instead"

so they didn't do it

I mean campaign finance

I mean put your money where your mouth is then joe idk

@Elise I don't like Trump but I feel like you can't blame him for idiots self-medicating.

@Sterno he was the guy making crazy statements like "look at this drug, it'll save you it's great"

Why should I trust the guy who benefits from a thing to stop the thing

and the woman in critical condidtion specifically blamed Trump

other than that he's not sure if he'd run a 2nd term

I guess

it's the iron law of institutions, in all things

A doctor could fucking tell me it'll save me and is great. That doesn't mean I self-medicate it

@Unionhawk I don't really know, but one thing is that (in the general) it would be completely impossible to win without super PACs, because of the huge flaws with our system that is not good

That shit is toxic in the wrong dosage

@Sterno but he should know that many of his supporters are old and crazy like him

They are, but no, you can't put this on him

It's a prescription drug

The article doesn't state how they got the drug, how much they took, or if they even had coronavirus

Like if you don't even have it and you're taking the "cure", wtf

@Sterno they didn't have coronavirus and they ate fish tank cleaner

it said that in the article

I hope Warren is the VP nominee but I don't really think it is that likely

@Stormblessed Missed that in the main article but did see it in the CNN one that was linked

@Sterno not directly, there's plenty of stupidity and also responsibility on the person that decides to just take that stuff. But Trump did publicly state that it was a safe drug, which is very irresponsible

I feel like this is a case of Trump hatred outweighing what he actually did

The more direct effect of his actions is the shortage of the drug, which could affect people that take it for other illnesses

and also @Unionhawk do you really think that Biden would be as seemingly intentionally incompetent at handling the coronavirus as Trump if this crisis were happening under him?

What was his action? Stating that there is a treatment that he's hopeful will work?

@Sterno he claimed it was approved when it is a medicine that people actually need

@Stormblessed look, "not donald trump" was attempted in 2016, and as we all know it worked

so I'm pretty confident that it'll work again

but I mean as the president

@Sterno He did very publicly make a lot of questionable statements about the drug, overplaying the chance that it helps, and severely downplaying the risk of the drug

this is terrifying me

> In Oval meeting last week, health officials Fauci, Hahn and Redfield all warned Trump about malaria drugs for coronavirus, urging him to wait for clinical trials. HHS Secretary Azar said he would unilaterally approve them immediately, stunning others

🤷‍♂️

yeah I was just kidding Joe is going to get absolutely crushed

the economy does not exist anymore and his approval has gone up 2 points in two weeks

@Unionhawk have you seen the polling of the swing states though?

and there's really nothing I can do about that at this point

I know everyone said "hilary is going to win 100%" but he is polling like 5 points up in Arizona and some other historically Republican states

And maybe me saying Joe will lose 100% will cause a cosmic balance and cause it to not happen

But he's going to get absolutely crushed and I'll get blamed for it somehow

again

@Unionhawk well Biden is polling really close with Trump in Ohio so if you vote it will actually matter

Do you think Bernie would do significantly better if he's unable to even beat Biden?

Bernie's policies poll well, so it's confusing what the outcome would be

People think joe supports the same things

idk

!!!!! Glenn Beck in 2009: “We care about the elderly... We value life in this country and when you start devaluing life, then you're in trouble.”

woah no way guy who doesn't believe anything said something different 11 years ago?

Yeah, I genuinely don't know. I think it's probably unfair to say Hillary was just "Not Trump 2016", because people actually actively hated her and the Democrats did nothing to address that. Unclear if that many people actively dislike Joe even though they should

That's probably true?

If doctors were pressured into prescribing it and patients were getting sick from it, then yeah, maybe blame Trump. These are a couple of idiots who had some for their fish tank, didn't even have the disease, and then decided to take a random amount. I feel like blaming literally anyone else for this is silly. I watched the press conferences. Yes, Trump indicated their known and safe. No reasonable person takes that to mean "I should just take some random amount and it'll be fine".

Just like literally any other prescription drug

But @Sterno the stuff he is saying is leading to this

and yeah they absolutely should the guy's got his hands in pretty much every piece of bad that has come out of the senate since the 70s

> A nationwide shortage of two drugs touted as possible treatments for the coronavirus is being driven in part by doctors inappropriately prescribing the medicines for family, friends and themselves, according to pharmacists and state regulators.

You think doctors didn't know about this before the press conference? It had been all over the news before Trump said anything

now I'm supposed to believe that actually Joe is more progressive than we're giving him credit for?

come on

Turning it around, should they not have mentioned the possible treatment option at all?

Fauci made it pretty clear clinical trials are needed. Are we assuming doctors are closer in intelligence to Trump than Fauci, and therefore Trump is to blame?

@Unionhawk I’m just trying to say that not nothing will change

@Unionhawk I don't think so, but I also think he'll just do whatever people tell him to. Unfortunately those people are just the leaders of the party, who suck

I can't wait to get Obamacare 2: Joecare

wherein idk, cigna gets even more money and asked even more nicely to not raise my deductible above $2,000

Maybe we need a new polling averager

This is the most ridiculous take

“Trump protecting people by making large numbers of them go to work sick”

line go up

@Sterno It's not helpful he keeps saying it over and over

Fauci made it clear and then Trump turned around and tweeted that it was magical again

Everyone and everything is dumb and we should probably not encourage any dumb behaviour

I think you can definitely blame him for making it sound like it'll make all the problems go away and that if you get the virus, a doctor can give you this and make it less scary. I just don't believe you can blame him for idiots self-medicating

But obviously also yes it should be self-evident ingesting fish tank stuff is bad, lol

@Stormblessed it essentially already is. Belgium and Netherlands are both part of Schengen, so they essentially don't have borders. But now Belgium has temporarily banned everyone from entry into their domain, which means technically people aren't allowed to enter the Belgian parts of Dutch stores on the border

I do like how he keeps saying that if China had told him about the virus 3-4 months earlier (so, like, 2-3 months before they even knew) it could all have been avoided

Yeah, even if you accept that the Chinese significantly covered up the early stages (which is a little unclear, but not uncharacteristic) it's not like we probably didn't know either way

But if you don't trust intelligence sources, idk 🤷‍♂️

Also, you know, time

Yeah we had a good idea that this was a thing in like, what, January?

Also, if you want to blame Trump for any violence against Chinese Americans by his toddler-like insistence on calling it the China virus, I can get on board that.

What more did we need to be told, that it would escalate from epidemic to pandemic by march?

I don't think China had that information 3-4 months ago

The only thing that would have made a difference was if the Chinese had somehow managed to completely contain it (which, not possible) so he didn't have to do anything

As long as he says "I closed travel from China" at least 17 times per press conference, he can convince his followers he was on top of this all along

That he didn't even do that until after we had cases here is of course icing on the cake

it's obviously not spreading by international travel anymore Borders are cool

god imagine trying to dunk on Cillizza and coming out being the dumber guy

It's just so perfect

The ultimate nesting doll of dumb

Paul does have an advantage in that he already doesn't leave the house

So I guess he's been 1 step ahead this whole time

@Sterno not so much violence but any person of Asian appearance was already being discriminated for being where you catch "the chinese virus"

Trump is a bit late to the party but he is enforcing the rhetoric and he's doing it on purpose

@Stormblessed Texarkana was sensible enough to have the border right down the middle of a street, so it doesn't really apply

Is blockchain some knowledge/skill in demand?

@Tim relatively high in demand, but extremely overused and overhyped

Like, the blockchain in itself has its uses, the problem is that 99% of projects that try to incorporate one don't ACTUALLY need one and are hugely overcomplicating things

@Nzall How do those blockchain job positions get fundings to hire people, given its usage is actually very limited?

If they don't create values, they have trouble to get fundings

@Tim mostly just managers and hedge fund managers who got tricked by the hype

So are those job positions likely ephemeral ?

It depends. Most probably aren't going to last

Do you mean most of them will end in failures too?

There are some projects that might have a proper use for the blockchain, but a lot of them are probably going to switch to other more useful systems and drop the blockchain

Assuming they don't fail entirely

The blockchain is a really niche technology that gained a lot of publicity because it's the cornerstone of Bitcoin.

and because Bitcoin at one point exploded in popularity and value, so did the Blockchain. Everyone wanted to be the next Bitcoin

It's a bit like how after the success of PUBG everyone created a battle royale mode

Coronavirus: Jeff Bezos, world’s richest man, asks public to donate to Amazon relief fund

> Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos faces backlash after publicising a relief fund the public can donate to for his contract employees working during the Covid-19 pandemic.

lol jfc

> The Amazon Relief Fund was created with $25m from the e-commerce company to assist its “employees and partners”, specifically those who are responsible for the necessary task of delivering all the products consumers order across the US.

They're claiming they're not asking people to donate, but like okay

@Wipqozn wtf

Can someone explain again how it helps the economy that they don’t pay any taxes or their workers?

It helps Amazon the company have a lot of money

> A creek in Toronto is now blood red because of spilled ink

> FDA warns patients EpiPens may malfunction, delay injections

> Dick Kovacevich, the former Chairman and CEO of Wells Fargo, wants people to return to work. “Some of them will get sick, some may even die, I don’t know.”

lol no thanks, Dick

you first

"You should listen to me because I don't know and don't give af"

Very convincing argument

Even Mike DeWine passed this particular marshmallow test

As it turns out people dying is bad for the economy

holy shit

Ah,,but good for unemployment numbers maybe,,?

lmfao The Federalist has gone a step further

> It is time to think outside the box and seriously consider a somewhat unconventional approach to COVID-19: controlled voluntary infection

Just incredible

I mean I'm pretty sure that's what the netherlands is doing and what the UK was doing

"Okay so hear me out what if maybe people died and instead of flattening the curve we pumped that sucker up?"

> Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves rejects a state lockdown for COVID-19, and says "Mississippi's never gonna be China."

I mean China seems to have relatively contained the virus so I guess this is technically true

@TimStone well yeah, china is an economic powerhouse

Just incredible brain to go "Ah yes, China, the only place to have ever done isolation"

> Wow. German media reports the G7 haven’t been able to agree on a joint statement on COVID-19 because of Pompeo’s insistence that it refer to it as the “Wuhan virus.” The other countries “reject a label that suggests the pandemic is a Chinese problem”

Uhhh

> FL Gov. DeSantis is now questioning whether the school closures have been effective. "There is not a lot of data to support it."

stares directly at the screen

Imagine thinking that young kids don't spread illness like wildfire

@TimStone Does he not remember the month or two where a third of his primary class was out sick with chicken pox?

> New York governor Cuomo said would produce 100,000 gallons of hand sanitizer every week. But prison inmates actually "making" the sanitizer said doing nothing more than taking existing hand sanitizer and rebottling it into packaging labeled NYS Clean

It sounds like they're taking bulk quantities and bottling it but it doesn't explain why making prisoners do this is better than just bottling it at the source facility

@MBraedley Reality is just dumb now :(

Does he not remember the recent measles outbreaks!

He just doesn't want to be blame for not closing the beaches

Like, this should be obvious to anyone who has ever had chicken pox, which is most people 30 and older.

I know, it's so weird that my sister never got chicken pox because they had the vaccine by then

Hell, the majority of 20-somethings have probably had chicken pox. I don't know when the vaccine was introduced.

> Prosecutors planned to indict Walmart for pushing opiod sales over pharmacists' concerns. Trump appointees killed the criminal case, then stonewalled the civil one. A prosecutor resigned in protest: “Corporations cannot poison Americans with impunity."

@MBraedley 1984, so probably not

I haven't anyway

@Unionhawk It wasn't widespread then. I was never vaccinated for chickenpox.

Wait this says it was introduced in the US in 1995 now

And I came down with it in 1991

make up your mind wikipedia

Maybe developed in the '80s

was it 84 or 95

It was 84, it didn't get licensed in the US until 95

And it would have been licensed in Canada around the same time.

And so obviously didn't make it onto the immunization schedule until sometime after that

> initial dose given at 12 to 18 months

Ah so yeah I was probably one of the first patients lol

Or like, in the first batch yearwise

Oh no we are dead

Trump approval is 49-45

Really what the fuck

His bad response made the coronavirus a lot worse

And the economy currently is very very very very bad

Dow has shot up

But it is still only at 21.7K

One month ago it was at 27K

Unemployment is going up really fast

Accountability does not exist

> Arizona man dies after attempting to take Trump coronavirus 'cure'

Gotta love how in a time of crisis, someone has a legitimate reason to say "don't believe anything that the president says".

On the other hand, don't consume fish tank cleaners just because it has a common ingredient with anti-malarials.

@Unionhawk Okay I would like to retract my previous statements on account of this being the dumbest shit I've seen this week, a week which included someone taking fish tank cleaner as medicine

<embed>dril you don't gotta hand it to them tweet</embed>

Yeah

That's, hm

Nothing but confidence in my president

@TimStone Ok wtf

Ok so is Draft Cuomo a joke or something?

> The problem Sasse, Tim Scott and Graham have is that the UI benefits would be larger than what many low-wage workers make because of the extra $600 per week. They worry that would create an incentive for low-wage workers to get laid off and stay laid off

lmfao holy shit

Where exactly are they going back to work right now?

jfc

Like even ignoring that hating poor people that much is disgusting, not even an opportunity to execute this "master plan" 🙄

loooooooooooooooooool

> According to a Twitter spokesperson: The Federalist's Twitter "account was temporarily locked for violating the Twitter Rules regarding COVID-19."

It was for posting the thing earlier

@TimStone Graham is out here using nurses as an example, my god

Hard not to take that as a sign they should be paid more and also yeah I'm sure they'll just be like "Screw it I'm gonna now sit this one out", gtfo

AOC is bad now because she wants Congress to do its job, apparently

> A Woman With Lupus Said Her Health Care Provider Is Stopping Her Chloroquine Prescription And Thanked Her For The “Sacrifice”

@TimStone who says this?

Megan McArdle, I won't link to the take because we should just not acknowledge she exists

Members of Congress might get the Rona because they waited forever to do something about it!!!11oneoneon

@Stormblessed jfc

lol of course it's Kaiser

> "Extensive experience and research show that hydroxychloroquine builds up in the body and continues to work for an average of 40 days even after the last dose is taken. By then, we expect the drug manufacturers to have ramped up production to meet the increased demand. Until then, we are no longer refilling routine prescriptions to ensure we have adequate supply to care for our sickest patients,"

"Look we did the math and you, the lupus patient, will probably be fine? idk gl"

@TimStone I don’t get Kaiser’s deal

There’s the thing that keeps promoting Medicare for All called Kaiser and then this shit with the same name

twitter.com/asymmetricinfo/status/1242896951718416384 sorry this is just so stupid it must be posted

She only exists if we believe in her, noooo

oh yeah she's washington post not bloomberg opinion now lol

for some reason trying to archive the tweet does not work

Ah, I regret, the President…

He's right it's definitely the media conspiring against him and not the checks notes desire not to die that's the issue here

@Unionhawk it is such a bad tweet that everyone must be exposed to the really useful exchange of bad ideas to attack because democracy or something, right?

> Gov. Gavin Newsom says that 1 million Californians have now filed for unemployment

I'm assuming he's out here trying to blame the media before the horrible jobs numbers come out

> "Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago has been discussing a universal do-not-resuscitate policy for infected patients, regardless of the wishes of the patient or their family members."

> Governor @GavinNewsom says that @BankofAmerica is the only bank that refused to join over 200 other financial institutions (including the biggest banks in the country) in giving a 90 day moratorium on mortgage payments to Californians while also protecting their credit ratings

It's weird to see adults like my parents totally support Trump while if I wrote the kind of stuff he did (i.e., Sleepy Joe Biden, Crooked Hillary, LameStream media, etc) they'd tell me to grow the fuck up

Right? I'd understand the "They're being so unfair to the President" more (but still strongly disagree) if he wasn't out here showing his ass literally every day

Just a complete refusal to log off

Well, shit, you made me look at Trump's twitter

> This is really great news! I am so happy I can barely speak. He may have been a terrible presidential candidate and an even worse U.S. Senator, but he is a RINO, and I like him a lot!

re: Romney being negative for coronavirus

Like what the actual fuck with this guy

It's like every thought goes through a shitpost filter

I'm also confused because it sounds like he's using RINO as a positive yet Republicans use it as a negative.

My guess is that he just doesn't know what it means

He probably did at some previous point but he cleared the slate for different insults

Either that or he actually means the whole thing to be sarcasm. I just can't tell

We'll never know, which is terrifying since he has sole launch authority

I did hear the press conference where someone mentioned Romney was in isolation and might have it and he responded in a very sarcastic voice "Gee, that's too bad". The reporter followed up "Is that sarcasm?" but Trump backed down and said no

twitter.com/joshtpm/status/1241874567695646721

Sarcastically wishing people had a deadly disease. And my parents support him.

> cw: one of Joe Biden’s former staffers says that 26 years ago, he pressed her up against his office wall and digitally penetrated her without consent

This was apparently reported in April of last year?

It seems like the accusation that came out then was a little less severe than the one being described there, though still obviously Not Good

Oh my god twitter.com/yungchomsky/status/1242904421547126785?s=19

smh @ what pizza rat has apparently become

what does "digitally" mean?

With fingers, in this context

Does digit mean finger?

Yes

Indeed: a finger (including the thumb) or toe.

TIL

That doesn't make him more likable

But the bar for becoming a president is very low

> Washington National Cathedral just found 5,000 respirator masks in their crypt (!) and are delivering them today to two DC hospitals

tfw you find 5,000 respirator masks in your crypt

@TimStone why would they have them there and why would they find them??

> Washington National Cathedral said Wednesday that one of its stonemasons recently discovered boxes containing more than 5,000 respirator masks in storage on the cathedral’s crypt level. Almost all of the masks, which had been purchased in 2006 during a previous health scare, will be donated to two local hospitals, a spokesman said

@Tim I don't know, this might be a positive among certain Trump voters

So sad

Hey, my HOA just sent me an email saying they're suspending doing those site checks (you know, the ones that result in you getting random letters telling you that you need to repaint your mailbox or else) for the next few weeks. HOW WILL WE LIVE?

these rambling press conferences will be the death of me

@TimStone the tl happens we regret to inform you that Bidenposters are on their shit atm

Why should I align myself with these people under any circumstances? Because I live in Ohio?

God dammit

the entire press conference is just bragging, not information

> "Your testing procedures are amazing," @POTUS says "South Korea" called him to say

Do people actually believe it when he says this stuff, or?

And if universally no, why aren't people bothered that he just says shit to say it?

@TimStone yeah, I forgot that there's also lots of lying in between the bragging

and bragging based on lies

@Unionhawk tbf, better things aren't possible if we're all dead, and as little progress as they want to make on this front I don't think "encourage a pandemic" is in their wheelhouse like it seems to be with this administration

Really shifted the bar on that one, honestly

He wants credit for doing "a good job" but also said that Americans were helping each other out instead of relying on the federal government for assistance?

This might have been asked before, but what happens to the census data of people that die between answering the census and the census being finalized?

Like, are only the people that are still alive when the census deadline hits counted

I assume the census counts the responses that come in

And doesn't bother to cross-check 300 million people on 1/1/21 to make sure they're still alive

@TimStone well it would be nice if Joe wanted to fight about this HOWEVER, alas

Seems like he's good with it if he, the possible general election opponent, doesn't want a political fight over it

And we're going to continue to need to help our own neighbors

It's some "We have to focus on the problem at hand" crap I guess

> Asked about Bob Levinson's family saying they've been told he died, Trump says, "It's not looking good. He wasn't well for years...it's not looking promising." He's speaking of Levinson partly in the past tense, partly in the present, but says he doesn't accept Levinson is dead

The real takeaway though is that I need to move so that me not aligning myself with every shitty candidate the party pumps out doesn't actually matter in any way

No free stimulus money for me. I guess I'm officially rich! Woo!

Instead of it just mostly not mattering

Congrats you can get over a 1cm high bar, great

He's truly saying that some states don't have a problem with COVID-19, that's simply delusional

and bragging that they're testing more now than anyone else

It's fun to see the gap between reporters in the press room getting bigger every few days

@Sterno it doesn't make any sense to do it this way still

Change is hard

I watched the German RKI conference earlier today, there's two people in front seating something like 3-4 seats apart, and a handful of photographers in the audience. The questions are submitted digitally ahead as far as I understand

I'm writing in Fauci for president

Definitely Joe Biden and Not a Staffer has written an article on Crooked Dot Com?

Is it just me, or does Mike Pence always just kind of look like he's having a relaxed, good time at these press conferences?

lol the ad just shows what Trump said versus reality
