    The second wave of covid in Europe is moving from the young to the old -- exactly what is about to happen in the United States. Not wearing a mask is an act of malicious contempt for parents/grandparents.

    Reminder: The U.S. has just over 4 percent of the world's population, and is the wealthiest nation in history. The U.S. has just over 20 percent of the world's covid-19 deaths, because its leadership either didn't care about, or outright wanted, uncontrolled spread of the virus.

    It would be great if the journalists stopped cooperating with these propaganda exercises. But most DC reporters are part of the club that puts access and normalization above real journalism. And even if they did want to change, their bosses would insist on business as usual.

    Why don't the press boycott Trump for at least one day to protest the danger that he has put the public and the press in? It's not that crazy of a thought. One day. No Trump.

    So we may have reached Peak Normalization. So many other possible, and more honest, ways to frame this...

    President Trump walks out of military hospital after three-day stay for COVID-19 treatment, will continue recovery at White House.

    There is one covid-19 patient Donald Trump cares about, and one only: Donald Trump. The 210,000 who died, and countless others who were sickened, mean nothing to him. A possible exception is his wife.

    The debate around the coverage of Claudia Conway is interesting considering Kellyanne is literally putting out messages via her daughter’s Tiktok. Here you can hear her instructing Claudia what to say via TikTok...

    My guess is “I’m going to be a Supreme Court justice for the 40 years and rewrite the Constitution to fit my political belief system.” Something like that.

    Really do wonder what Amy Coney Barrett is thinking, watching as it becomes clearer that her big unveiling likely led to a mass COVID spread at the top levels of government.

    To everyone quoting the dire side effects of drugs Trump is taking: Doesn't pharma labeling list basically every real and possible reaction that anyone has ever had to the given medication? Even if the chances of any individual having that reaction are close to zero?

    Even today -- even as the president of the United States deliberately brings his contagion back to the White House -- media orgs still won't ask the obvious question: Did the coronavirus policy become letting, or encouraging, uncontrolled spread?

    Absolutely nothing will deter the bosses of our top media organizations from willfully failing the pubilc -- they will even risk their journalists' health in order to keep Trump on TV.

    Trump is basically filming a campaign commercial outside of the WH without a mask in the presence of photographers. Let me repeat: the president has coronavirus and is walking around without a mask.

    Big Journalism's business as usual has been one of the most disheartening aspects of the Trump cult rule. Some brilliant individual efforts, totally undermined by media bosses deliberate decisions.

    There is zero chance Donald Trump would have ever become President without the boosterism of the American news media. They can’t look away.

    Big Journalism is incapable of learning from its mistakes. Also unwilling to learn. Historians will write that business as usual by our media orgs was one of the proximate causes of the republic's fall.

    All three networks just handed their entire broadcasts to an extended photo op for . Thoughts???????)

    It's always too late to ask journalists to stop doing business as usual...

    Didn’t suggest this quite a while ago? Never too late to do it.

    People will die because of this.

    Just reported on MSNBC: the CDC has been prohibited from doing contact tracing for any of the COVID infections at the White House or Trump's contacts.

    “Don’t be afraid of Covid. Don’t let it dominate your life.” — Donald Trump, pumped full of steroids by his own private world-class medical team, stepping over the bodies of 215,000 dead Americans, prematurely abandoning quarantine, heading out to infect more people around him.
