Trump, when asked about who is accountable, pushes states responsibility. When asked who is in control, promotes autocracy.

[NomadicLiving]

The same supreme court who voted remotely, insisting that Wisconsin voters vote in person?

[goodwolf]

Sanders biggest misstep in endorsing Joe Biden was to not insist that Joe Biden support Medicare for all before the endorsement and the green new deal. Even if Joe had some compromise version of that and not Medicare at 60. The USA needs universal healthcare. Period.

Hard to deal with 3 pandemics at once - Covid 19, this administration, and those who aren't taking Covid 19 seriously.

Good morning Miss Goodman. I enjoy your news everyday. Thanks for the great job that you are doing

[Roedygr]

re: Bishop Gerald Glenn. This is poetic justice for conning his congregation into exposing themselves to COVID-19. He should have known better. In the bible Yahweh smotes with plagues but never saves from plagues or any other disaster. A god that drowns all the innocent animals of the world can't be expected to perform a miracle to spare a greedy preacher.

H2A workers, farm workers, should all EN MASS, walk out of the fields and stop working. watch how soon they get PPE, and hazard pay.

[NoMad]

OK Pastor, we just quoted you on this... RIP!

[blackbird]

Paula Reid!!! Finally someone holding Trump's feet to the fire!

[MrJanes-clsj]

Í love how giving massive corporations trillion dollar welfare bills isn't socialism but the idea of free healthcare is akin to stalinist communism.

[pacerodi]

What do you get when you replace one psychopath, for another? Does "Soylent Green", rings a bell?

[highwayrockstar]

Republican nightmare: people at home staying up late, sleeping in, not working, smoking bud, drinking alcohol, and eating while waiting on a government check. LOLOLO

[thomas]

That Pastor’s brain died a long time before his body did. Ignorance.

[anonymous-znem]

Trump: " I am not a successful businessman, I just played one on TV, and you suckers fell for it!"

[Toneloke-]

😂Barely a handful reporters in the room. Looks like the media is getting tired of the used car salesman.

[janefreeman]

Case in point. Privatized medical care is substandard. Greed and bottom line - - cutting corners and out sourcing has left the US vulnerable. Capitalism is one thing and unfettered corporatism is a failure of our so called lawmakers on both sides to do their most basic job ; to protect our citizens. In this case protecting us from criminality by being complicit.

[TheSkete]

Too bad the Bishop didn't study History, instead of Theology. "God" has never stepped in to stop any pandemic this world has seen.

[jodiebenjamin]

That decision will be dire this virus in no isn't finish with this world not yet!

[beanie_meanie]

Kashmir has been under a complete lockdown illegally imposed by India with no internet, telephone service and months without access to most news channels. The immense impact it had on people- mentally, socially as well as economically over the past 8 months is beyond imagination. This time, when the whole world is fighting a common enemy, we, the people of Kashmir, are already tired and bent on our knees fighting for our basic rights. Glad that atleast, a part of it made it to the democracy now today.

How many parents are considering home schooling until there is a vaccine?
