Stephanie Grisham is ousted as White House Press Secretary. Her replacement is a far-white troll.
An unremarkable press secretary.
The White House announced that Stephanie Grisham is fired out the cannon. She will be replaced by CNN and OANN commentator Kayleigh McEnany. The 10 months Grisham was the White House Press Secretary was unremarkable.
Well there was that one incident when a North Korean security officer shoved her when Donald J. Trump was doing his latest photo-op with DPRK's Kim Jong-un.
During her months as the press spox, she barely held press briefings and only appeared on Fox News to do her usual bashing of Democrats and critics of her boss Donald J. Trump.
Grisham if anything will be remembered for her fake allegations about former Obama administration officials leaving notes saying "you will fail" to Trump administration officials. Numerous Obama administration officials rejected the claim. Grisham ultimately retracted the assertion.
Grisham had not conducted a formal press briefing in the White House.
Trump loves blonds. Kayleigh McEnany is new spox.
She will be reassigned back to the office of Melania Trump, the barely seen and heard First Lady of the United States.
McEnany is a pro-Trump booster and loyalist who will be under the helms of new White House chief of staff Mark Meadows.
Meadows, a former North Carolina Congressman and leading member of the do-nothing "Freedom Caucus" became the newest chief of staff after Trump fired Mick Mulvaney, the acting chief of staff and White House Office and Management Director.
Meadows has decided that Grisham will find a better place with Melania.
McEnany is a controversial figure. She is a political commentator and far-white agitator who promotes conspiracies and bullshit.
On Fox Business Network, McEnany made a bullshit claim about the COVID-19 pandemic.
She talked to Trish Regan, the former Fox Business host.
"This President will always put America first, he will always protect American citizens, we will not see diseases like the coronavirus come here, we will not see terrorism come here and isn't it refreshing when contrasting it with the awful presidency of President [Barack] Obama."
May these words come back to haunt her dumbass.
Once appointed, McEnany will be the fourth White House Press Secretary. The most colorful formers included Sean Spicer and Sarah Huckabee Sanders. These two were parodied by Saturday Night Live.

Of the 15,000 deaths of the coronavirus, 54% of the victims are African American. There are 604,000 confirmed cases in the United States. The coronavirus has killed 2 million people worldwide.
The Wisconsin primary is today. Folks are going to risk their lives for the right to vote.
Some scary stuff folks.
As a Black man, I am not afraid to die. We all are going to die someday. As long as you make the best of your life, death won't be scary. Still, this coronavirus pandemic has grinded the United States to a halt.
The virus isn't Donald J. Trump's fault.
However, Trump's failure to prepare for this, downplaying this, dismantling organizations that handle these matters, attacking the press for asking questions involving the health and safety of Americans are solely his fault.
Many Black Americans have died from COVID-19. Many of these victims were working at their jobs when they contacted the virus. Remember the bus driver, Jason Hargrove. He was the Detroit SMART bus driver who told the world that a rider was sick and failed to cover her mouth while riding on the bus. He ended up catching it and dying only a few days later.
Wondo Evans worked loyally at Walmart.
The medical doctors and nurses are putting themselves at risk for the disease.
The grocery store workers and stockers are putting themselves at risk for the disease.
The journalists and reporters covering the stories are putting themselves at risk for the disease.
A Washington, DC area cashier passed away from complications of COVID-19.
Leilani Jordan, 27 died in Largo Maryland after she contracted the disease while working.
Zenobia Shepherd, Leilani's mother told the junk food media, "She said: 'Mommy, I'm going to work because no one else is going to help the senior citizens get their groceries.'"
"She only stopped going to work when she could no longer breathe."
Two other workers contracted the disease and passed away.
Phillip Thomas, 48 and Wondo Evans, 51 were loyal workers at a Chicago-area Walmart. The two have died from complications from the disease. Wondo worked for Walmart for 15 years as an overnight maintenance worker. Phillip would have turned 49 years old this week.
Walmart is facing a lawsuit on behalf of the families of the victims. The families claim that management would not send workers home or get them ample PPE (preventive protection equipment).
Leilani Jordan worked loyally at Giant stores. One day she went to work and felt ill. She died a few days later from the coronavirus.
The state governor J.B. Pritzker ordered the stores to operate on limited times.
The Washington Post reports that thousands of grocery staffers nationwide continue to work and their fears of contracting the disease are rising. Now grocers are installing plexiglass sneezing guards, sanitizer, masks, gloves and a little extra dollar or two in their paychecks.
They are closing their stores
Family said she was really healthy.
However, I am afraid that the perceptions are coming back again.
Black Americans have to work our assses off because of the perceptions we're lazy and lacking intelligence. We are classified as criminals, thieves and primarily looked upon as suspicious.
We are heckled by trolls on social media, on racist websites, vilified by white established Americans.
We have the highest in diabetes, heart disease, cancer and ashemta.
European scientists want to test vaccines in the African Union. The American scientists want to test vaccines in Kansas City and Philadelphia, cities with a heavy Black population.
Here's a map.
There are over 400,000 confirm cases of the coronavirus in the United States. There are over 11,000 Americans who have died from the coronavirus. Every state has reported a death and its rising fast.
Phillip Thomas worked with Wondo.
Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Deborah Brix have predicted that there could be over 100,000 to 4 million Americans killed by the coronavirus. Globally, there are over 1.5 million people infected by the coronavirus.
With the coronavirus pandemic, Americans are being ordered to stay at home if they're sick and those who are able to work are doing under tight restrictions. Many companies had to lay off millions because of the spread of the coronavirus.
Here's things to remember about the coronavirus.
1. Wash your hands frequently
2. Do not touch your face (mouth, nose and eyes)
3. Cough into your elbow instead of your hands.
4. Keep a safe distance (at least 6 to 10 feet) from individuals.
5. If you're sick, please stay home.
6. There is no treatment or cure for the COVID-19.
7. Follow state and federal laws regarding this.
8. Do not hoard items like toilet paper, bread, gloves, hand sanitizer, etc.
9. Use social media like Facebook Messenger, Google Duo, Skype or social media to connect.
10. COVID-19 can live on surfaces for more than 72 hours. Including steel, plastic and cardboard.
11. A pandemic has no timeline.
12. COVID-19 doesn't care about borders.
13. If you deliberately infect other individuals, food and first responders, you will be charged with crime.
The coronavirus doesn't care about your age, race, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, politics, economic or social standings. It doesn't care about anything. It's a living organism that causes mild symptoms that include: fever, sore throats, chills, respiratory issues, loss of taste or smell and other unknown symptoms. If you have a weak immune system or health issues, your risk increases.
Death does happen to at least 40% of those who are affected by COVID-19.
Healthy people can die from this.

A huge endorsement for former vice president Joe Biden. The Democratic frontrunner has secured the endorsement of Rep. John Lewis (D-GA), the longtime lawmaker and civil rights activist.
Lewis is the 38th member of the Congressional Black Caucus to officially back the former vice president's campaign for the Democratic nomination.
"It is my belief that we need Joe Biden now more than ever before. He will be a great president. He will lead our country to a better place. He will inspire another generation to stand up, to speak up and to speak out. Be brave, to be hold. That's why I'm committed to support him."
In announcing his support, Lewis paired his endorsement with a public recommendation that BIden pick a woman of color as his running mate.
"I think [former] Vice President Biden should look around. It would be good to have a woman of color," Lewis said on a conference call to tout his endorsement with reporters when asked about the subject.
Before the coronavirus had sideline the campaign, Lewis was urging Blacks to vote. He had helped register new voters. Lewis has Stage IV cancer in his pn
Lewis, 80, is in poor health, pledged to travel the country to drive up support for Biden, particularly among Black voters. He describes Biden as "a friend, a dear friend. He is a man of courage, a man with a great conscience, a man of faith."
Ailing from cancer, Lewis made the endorsement on Tuesday.
The endorsement from Lewis is huge for Biden and a big blow to the remanments of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).
Sanders' insufferable supporters are attacking Lewis for endorsing Biden over him.
And they wonder why Sanders isn't winning this nomination fight?
Well it's obvious!
I only assume the Bernie Bros will push the narrative that Sanders marched with Martin Luther King, Jr. in Selma. No he did not. The photo that is circulating around the social media is fake.
Sanders skipped the 55th anniversary of the Bloody Sunday March. It proved to be a blow to his outreach to the Black voters of the South.
Biden has pulled a strong support among Black voters. Now that Michael Bloomberg dropped out, the former vice president managed to wrangle up the Black support overwhelmingly over Sanders.
Biden called Lewis, "one of my heroes," praising the courage and sacrifice in the fight for civil rights, especially as a part of the Bloody Sunday marches in Selma, Alabama. The Bloody Sunday march happened in 1965 where civil rights leaders were attacked by the law as they crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge. The march across the bridge was a stand against the racism of the South. The Selma to Montgomery march was dangerous.
Biden has strengthen his lead in the delegate count. Despite Wisconsin moving forward with their primary, Biden still looks favorable to beat Sanders.
The granddaughter of Robert F. Kennedy and her son died in a boating accident.
The Kennedy curse continues on. The legendary family is mourning the lost of Robert F. Kennedy's granddaughter and her eight-year old son.
The U.S. Coast Guard recovered the body of Maeve Kennedy Townsend McKean in Chesapeake Bay on Monday night. They are still searching for the body of her son, Gideon.
The body was discovered after the Coast Guard searched an area where the woman and her son were canoeing. The search for her son was called off but it's likely they'll find the body of Gideon soon.
Maeve disappeared on Thursday after they were chasing after a lost ball in the bay.
Both McKean and her son were seen struggling to return to the shore during a canoe trip near Fairhaven, a town located 30 miles from Washington, DC.
A search was conducted by the U.S. Coast Guard ended for the two on Saturday but state Natural Resource Police continued the search.
Maeve was a public health and human rights lawyer who serves as executive director of the Georgetown University Global Health Initiative. She graduated from the prestigious Washington, DC college with a law degree.
The Kennedy curse once again claims a family member.
She was married to David McKean in 2009 and has three children. The other children were Gabriella, seven and Toby, three.
She was the daughter of former Maryland Lieutenant Governor Kathleen Kennedy Townsend.
Kathleen is the oldest daughter of the late Robert F. Kennedy. He was killed in Los Angeles in 1968 after attending a campaign rally. He was then the Attorney General under his brother John F. Kennedy. He was also U.S. Senator from New York and former Democratic presidential candidate.
Dr. Jill Biden is Joe's greatest ally. The Bernie Bros are targeting her because of her certifications.
Desperation is in the air with the Bernie Bros.
Is this a coordinated attempt from Russia, Donald J. Trump or the remnants of the Bernie Sanders campaign?
I've heard that Shaun King was called out again. He tried to troll Sen. Brian Schatz (D-HI) for Medicare for All. Schatz called him out on it. He said that he endorsed and sponsored the bill.
King is a former Black Lives Matter activist and writer. He is under fire for promoting misleading stories about the Democratic candidates. He also got into a heated feud with MSNBC agitator Rachel Maddow.
Controversial actor and podcaster Joe Rogan said that he'll vote for Donald J. Trump if Biden becomes the nominee. The Democrats have slammed Rogan for his rampant bigotry online and his phony support.
Briahna Joy Gray was called out for her sneak diss on Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA). Harris called for COVID-19 testing to be free. Gray went on to attack her for not supporting Medicare for All and demanding why she won't promote free cancer screenings. The K-Hive struck back by saying that Harris' mother died of cancer. They said that Harris supports the Affordable Care Act and does call for Medicare for All.
You also have Cenk Uygur, The Young Turks, Kyle Kulinski (Secular Talk), Michael Moore, David Sirota, Susan Sarandon, Katie Halper, Krystal Ball, Mehdi Hasan, Thom Hartmann, Benjamin Dixon, Cornel West, Killer Mike, Glenn Greenwald, Jordan Uhl, Ryan Knight, Alexandra Tera Reade, David Ag Stone and Ryan Grim.
These individuals are insufferable assholes and peddlers of propaganda.
They will not win any favors among Democrats and progressives who are tired of the primaries.
More people are concerned about their jobs, the coronavirus and the future of the country in whole.
I am sick and tired Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and his supporters. The Vermont senator and Democratic presidential candidate is still in the race despite his chances of being the nominee very slim.
His online supporters are really insufferable.
They tried with Joe Biden in coordinated attacks. These attacks have strengthen the bond between Democrats and the Biden campaign. It's really backfiring and hurting Sanders.
Some of the most notable themes of the #NeverBiden camp.
Joe Biden has dementia.
Joe Biden is a rapist.
Joe Biden is a Republican.
Joe Biden is an establishment Democrat.
Joe Biden is missing in the wake of a crisis.
Joe Biden is the nominee, I'll vote for Trump.
And now they're attacking his wife, Dr. Jill Biden, the former Second Lady of the United States.
Twitter once again is failing to police misinformation. The attacks on Biden have gotten worse.
On The View, Whoopi Goldberg referred Biden as a surgeon general back in March. Now all of sudden, the Bernie Bros are attacking her for being a "doctor."
Jill Biden is an American educator who has a EdD and MEd of education. More than most of these ridiculous trolls on social media.
Just in case you want to go into this debate over "Dr." how about looking into the wife of Bernie Sanders. Her name is Dr. Jane O'Meara Sanders, a Phd and EdD in education.
United Kingdom prime minister Boris Johnson's condition worsen due to the coronavirus.
Conservatism has failed in the United States and the United Kingdom. If you're not believing climate change and science, then you're pretty much fucked.
The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom has been taken to St. Thomas' Hospital in London on Sunday night. His office confirms that he was moved to intensive care after symptoms from the coronavirus have worsen throughout the day.
Downing Street spokesman said: "Since Sunday evening, the Prime Minister has been under the care of doctors at St. Thomas' Hospital, in London, after being admitted with persistent symptoms of coronavirus.
"Over the course of this afternoon, the condition of the Prime Minister has worsened and, on the advice of his medical team, he has been moved to intensive care at the hospital.
The Prime Minister asked Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab, who is the First Secretary of State, to deputize for him when necessary.
The Prime Minister is receiving excellent care, and thanks to all NHS staff for their hard work and dedication.
Queen Elizabeth II had delivered a national address to the nation.

NYFD firefighter was infected by the coronavirus because of an unruly teen.
The New York City Fire Department has condemned an apparent domestic terrorist attack on one of their own. A Muslim firefighter contacted the coronavirus after being exposed by a resident.
The resident was a Jewish teenager. The teen and three of his friends deliberately sneezed on the firefighter and ran off.
Now he has caught the COVID-19.
Attorney General William Barr had issued a warning saying Americans that are sick and these individuals spreading the virus deliberately will face "domestic terrorism" charges.
Omar Sattar, 33 was allegedly taunted by these three Jewish teenagers in Brooklyn, New York.
Sattar, whose father was convicted of terrorism charges in 2005, was sneezed on by a group of Hasidic Jews in Borough Park.
The 33-year old was inspecting a hydrant when he was confronted by "three Hasidic Jewish" teens on March 18th.
The FDNY's chief of operations, Thomas Richardson and Lt. Kasey Kozlowski alleges that Sattar was "taunted" by the group who "asked him if he was afraid of the coronavirus."
Sattar told them to "keep their distance and not to interfere with his work," the teen sneezed into his face and ran off.
Four days later, Sattar then begun experiencing flu-like symptoms and was tested for the coronavirus.
He was tested positive for the coronavirus. He was placed on medical leave on March 24 and the results came in March 27..
The far-white The Daily Mail claims that Sattar was the son of a conspirator of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. The father was sentenced to 24 in federal time out after "he solicited crimes of violence" against Jewish New Yorkers.

Wisconsin governor could not shut down the primaries. He will probably force an emergency order.
The Democratic primary is on Tuesday in Wisconsin. Former vice president Joe Biden has a substantial lead in the state. Donald J. Trump has enough delegates to be the nominee for the Republican Party.
Gov. Tony Evers wanted to stop the Wisconsin primary elections. Republicans in charge of the state legislature said otherwise. Now it's a controversy ensued and conspiracy from the Bernie Bros.
The mayors of Wisconsin's most populous cities are calling upon the state's top officials to shut down in-person voting on Tuesday as a legal battle over absentee voting in the state reaches the Supreme Court.
"We implore you to implement all emergency measures necessary to control the spread of the COVID-19, a communicable disease," said a letter from the Department of Human Services Secretary-Designee Andrea Palm. "Specifically, we need you to step up and stop the state of Wisconsin from putting hundreds of thousands of citizens at risk by requiring them to vote at the polls while this ugly pandemic spreads."
Again, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and his supporters have become insufferable assholes. They have been actively online trolling Democrats and progressive allies with vicious attacks. They've turned off Democrats and in turn hurt Sanders chances at winning the nomination.
Bernie Bros have vowed to not support Biden if he becomes the nominee. Once again, these trolls were a reason to why Hillary Clinton lost against Trump.
The primary could be dangerous for voters and poll workers.
Evers called a special session of Wisconsin’s Republican-controlled legislature on Saturday in an attempt to change the state’s Election Day into an extended mail-in ballot only election. He had proposed mandating that all registered voters receive an absentee ballot by May 19 and extending the deadline to turn them in to May 26.
But the legislative session lasted only a couple seconds Saturday afternoon; the state’s Republican leaders gaveled in and out, adjourning until Monday and leaving the in-person Election Day plans for Tuesday intact.
“Hundreds of thousands of workers are going to their jobs every day, serving in essential roles in our society. There’s no question that an election is just as important as getting take-out food,” Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald and Assembly Speaker Robin Vos, both Republicans, said in a statement.
Wisconsin has reported 2,112 positive cases of the coronavirus, and 56 related deaths, as of Saturday afternoon — more than double what the state was reporting last week. Residents have been under strict stay-at-home orders since March 25: All nonessential businesses have been shut down, and people who don’t live in the same household are not allowed to gather. Breaking the rules comes with jail time or fines.
Already, election officials are facing poll staff shortages and a backlog of absentee ballots. The majority of municipalities in Wisconsin have already reported a lack of poll workers. State election officials reported 111 jurisdictions that do not have enough people to staff a single polling place, and 60% of all Wisconsin towns and cities were reporting staffing shortages as of Monday. On Friday, the Milwaukee Election Commission announced the city was consolidating its usual 180 polling stations to just five.
Bernie Sanders wants to win so badly/
For now, voters will have to choose between voting without proper social distance, or not showing up.
“We have grave concerns about holding an election as we’re just ramping up in dealing with 1,000 cases in Milwaukee County, let alone other areas in the state that may not have cases yet,” Milwaukee Health Commissioner Jeanette Kowalik told reporters Friday.
Vos, the state assembly speaker, tweeted, “Milwaukee could easily use city staff to open polling places.” Evers has also offered using the national guard to staff polling stations.
Evers has tried to pin the blame on his Republican colleagues, though he himself appeared resigned to the April 7 election date last week; Friday was the first time he called for the primary to be moved. Previously, Evers had been calling for an expanded absentee ballot system — mailing ballots to all registered voters and loosening guidelines for absentee voting.
“There’s no real good answer to this,” Evers, who unseated the state’s former Republican governor Scott Walker in 2018, said in a video posted to his social media accounts Friday. “Folks, I can’t change this election or change the rules on my own. My hands are tied. And that’s why I spoke to legislative leaders about this weeks ago. I even publicly called on them to act. They made it clear they were unwilling to make changes.”
Republican officials seemed unfazed by the governor’s demand, criticizing him for attempting changes at the last minute.
Fitzgerald, the Senate majority leader, previously said that sending absentee ballots to all registered voters in the state was “not logistically feasible” and called it a “fantasy” and “ridiculous” last week. Other states — like Ohio, Wyoming and Alaska — have switched primary voting to mail-in ballots only.
Republicans are also fighting election changes in the courts. A federal judge censured Evers and Republicans last week for failing to address the election during a public health crisis and granted an extension for absentee ballots. Ballots now need to be received by 4 p.m. on April 13 to be counted. A federal appeals court upheld the April 13 deadline, but undid another provision that would have allowed voters to submit mail-in ballots without a witness signature.
Republican leaders in the state have already indicated they would like to fight the absentee ballot extension in state courts.
Joe Biden likely going to win Wisconsin.
“We still have grave concerns about election security by allowing votes to be postmarked or submitted after Election Day, and plan to appeal that issue to the United States Supreme Court,” Fitzgerald and Vos said in a joint statement.
Wisconsin Democrats have already raised concerns about the political implications of low voter turnout in this election. On the ballot is a contentious race for a seat on the state Supreme Court. While technically a nonpartisan contest, incumbent Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Dan Kelly has been endorsed by President Donald Trump and has the support of Republicans. Kelly is looking to sew up a 10-year appointment, while his opponent, Dane County Circuit Judge Jill Karofsky, is hoping to weaken conservatives’ 5-2 majority on the court.
The outcome of this race could have an outsize impact on the state’s politics for the next decade, as Wisconsin gears up to redraw its congressional maps with data from the 2020 census.
And despite conflicting guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention about limited larges gatherings, both campaigns for former Vice President Joe Biden and President Donald Trump say they won’t call on the state to postpone their respective contests.
U.S. District Judge William Conley ruled on Thursday that in-person voting would not be canceled or postponed, but voters in Wisconsin now have an additional day to request an absentee ballot, until Saturday at 5 p.m.
Solid Rock Church in Monroe is under face for holding services during the pandemic.
It seems like Ohio's Governor Mike DeWine's orders to keep a distance are ignored by the religious institutions. After all, they are given exemptions. One in particular is a megachurch located in Monroe, Ohio. It's close to Miami Valley Gaming, Cincinnati Premium Outlet Mall, Treasure Aisle Flea Market, Hustler Superstore and Trader's World. It's located right off Interstate 75 and you can see the "Touchdown Jesus" right off the highway.
Solid Rock Church is defying the governor order on social distancing in the wake of the national emergency of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Ohio Department of Health, Monroe's mayor and state leaders are warning the church to cut back or face consequences.
The church is located in Warren County.
Pastor Lawrence Bishop II told his service Sunday that the church has come under attack for holding services but no one is faulting people "who packed Lowes this morning, elbow to elbow and two-hour wait to get in."
"It's not the people at the bars that are hating on us and attacking us, it's other Christians or other churches and I guess they want to justify their own, listen we're not bashing you if you don't want to have church," Bishop said to a thunderous applause.
The mayor of Monroe, Jason Frentzel urge pastors to implore them to reconsider.

If you have a weak immune system or health issues, your risk increases.
Death does happen to at least 40% of those who are affected by COVID-19.
Healthy people can die from this.

No one is immuned from the coronavirus. There were a handful of entertainers, politicians, people in the news and folks you may have known dying of the COVID-19.
At current pace with 335.3 million folks, we could experience a massive causality event. For ever 5 hours someone is dying from this.
Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Deborah Brix have estimated that the peak of viral spread could reach 4 million with 100,000 to 250,000 deaths.
This is some real crazy shit going on. Everyone, including myself, LeReyna, our contributors, our wonderful readers, our families, our friends, our neighbors and yes, the critics are at risk of COVID-19.
The Squad members are facing primary challengers due to their support of the Bernie Bros.
Three progressive lawmakers now face challengers from the left. They became vocal faces of the progressive movement. Now their support of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and tepid responses to stopping the Bernie Bros has got them in a quite a fix.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) and Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) are going to face primary challengers.
Along with Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), the ladies make up the squad. They were the surprise victors of the 2018 Democratic primaries. They have been very vocal over issues that face Americans. We love their voices but hate their passion.
Note: Pressley is the only lawmaker to not endorse Sanders for the primary.
But when it comes to the U.S. presidential election, they decided to go extremely partisan.
Tlaib and Omar are the most vocal critics of the status quo. Tlaib who is a Palestine-American and practicing Muslim represents Detroit. Omar is a Somali-American who is a practicing Muslim.
These ladies along with Rep. Andre Carson (D-IN) are Sunni Muslims.
Tlaib was criticized last year for her campaign appearance for Sanders. She openly encouraged Sanders supporters to boo former 2016 Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton. It was a huge mistake that now has her facing a primary challenge.
One in particular served in the Congress for 24 days to finish out John Conyers term. Former congresswoman and Detroit city council member Brenda Jones is going to challenge Tlaib again.
Jones won the special election but ended up losing the primary election. Jones served only a few weeks to oppose the The Jobs and Tax Cuts Act.
Jones is gearing for a rematch against Tlaib. She also tested positive for the coronavirus.
Ocasio-Cortez is the most vocal member of the Squad. Her surprise victory against Joe Crowley became the rally cry for the Justice Democrats, a far-left extremist group of progressives who vow to take on moderate Democrats in safe districts.
The lawmaker is facing five Democratic primary challengers and eight Republican challengers.
Some of the challengers are frustrated over Ocasio-Cortez's tepid support for Sanders. She has distanced herself from the campaign after he embraced the endorsement of Joe Rogan.
She also complained about Bernie Bros and the culture within his campaign.
Omar who is the most villianist member of the Squad is a survivor. She has faced intense scrutiny over her marriages, her stance against Israel and her support for women's rights.
Omar has four primary challengers and two Republican challengers. One challenger is a geeker. The other is an openly gay community organizer. One challenger is Antone Melton-Meaux, a Minneapolis attorney who is hoping to appeal to moderate members of the Democratic Party party frustrated with Omar's controversial stances.
He is likely going to be hard toughest opponent.
The Bernie Bros have turned off Democrats. They believe conspiracy theories about Joe Biden, the frontrunner in the race for the nomination. They have aggressively attacked Biden, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), Beto O'Rourke, Michael Bloomberg, Pete Buttigieg and Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN). All but Warren went on to back Biden over Sanders.
Warren didn't back Sanders. She was really angry over the Bernie Bros and their attacks on her.
The Squad has fizzled out. Since they decided to jump on the populist bandwagon and bashed members of the party, they lost respect.
Now they're begging for the Democratic "establishment" to back their bids for reelection.
I still support these women, but if they're still on this "BERNIE OR BUST" bullshit, it's time to primary them out. We can't have divisiveness within the party. With stakes so high and the COVID-19 spreading, it's not the time for Medicare for All, it's the time for Americans to get treatment now.
No legislation will stop this virus from spreading. So it's best to stop promoting something that's not going to happen overnight.
Fox News under fire for promoting bullshit during a pandemic.
Fox News is an American conservative cable news channel. It's owned by Australian-American billionaire Rupert Murdoch. I dubbed him, Rupert "Pervert" Murdoch for the fact he dates young women and runs a culture of sexism, racism, extremism and yellow journalism in the name of profit.
He is a conservative business executive. His eldest sons Lachlan and James run the company Fox Corporation (a former entity of Newcorp, Inc). Murdoch sold the majority of his networks to the Walt Disney Company and has minor stake in the brand.
The network is provided in the 86 countries and overseas territories.
It operates at 1211 Avenue of the Americas in the city of New York.
It is the number one cable news channel in the United States.
It is vilified by the far-white extremist rhetoric from its hosts and contributors. It's a favorite among Donald J. Trump who actually takes advice from some of the on-air talent.
The most recent talent are now under fire for misleading its coverage in the COVID-19 pandmeic.
Lachlan is facing pressure to clamp down on Fox News talent throwing conspiracy theories in the wake of a public emergency.
James is more moderate than Lachlan. He wanted to do a complete overhaul of its talent.
Trevor Noah and The Daily Show are on hiatus and he's been doing his shows from his home.
He made a supercut of Fox News agitators denouncing the threat and blaming the Democrats for raising concerns.
Sean "Softball" Hannity, the most annoying agitator in the media is the focus of the ire. He is a "shadow chief-of-staff" for Trump.
Softball Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Jesse Watters, Steve Doocy and others crossed a line between opinion and full-on conspiracy theories.
A transparency watchdog’s lawsuit against Fox News over its handling of the Covid-19 pandemic – including repeatedly calling it a hoax during broadcasts – is as novel as the coronavirus but likely won’t get far, according to legal experts.
The Washington League for Transparency and Ethics sued Fox News on Thursday, saying the network’s consistent downplaying of the pandemic in the early stages of the outbreak in the United States encouraged people to behave in ways contrary to what was required to stem the spread.
“Defendants knowingly disseminated false, erroneous, and incomplete information, which was reasonably relied upon by the public and which had the effect of delaying and interfering with the implementation of effective mitigation and countermeasures against the virus,” the League said in the complaint. “Defendants’ actions created an ongoing uncertainty amongst some members of the public as to the dangers of the virus and the rapidity with which the virus spreads.”
WASHLITE said one of its members eventually contracted the coronavirus during epidemiological conditions the plaintiffs allege were created, in part, by the malfeasance of the network.
“The defendants have created an epidemiological hazard,” WASHLITE said in the complaint. “A subset of the population has and will continue to ignore or resist reasonable and necessary efforts to control and mitigate the virus and prevent mass death.”
Fox News dismissed the lawsuit as frivolous.
“Wrong on the facts, frivolous on the law,” said Lily Fu Claffee, general counsel for Fox News Media. “We will defend vigorously and seek sanctions as appropriate.”
Thursday’s lawsuit in Washington state is the first known one of its kind filed against the conservative media organization, although it may not be the last.
Trump has been taking most of the blame for his handling of the coronavirus. Yet, he continues to blame the governors, Barack Obama and the junk food media for his handling of this.
Will somebody strike this softball out?
With the coronavirus pandemic, Americans are being ordered to stay at home if they're sick and those who are able to work are doing under tight restrictions. Many companies had to lay off millions because of the spread of the coronavirus.
Here's things to remember about the coronavirus.
1. Wash your hands frequently
2. Do not touch your face (mouth, nose and eyes)
3. Cough into your elbow instead of your hands.
4. Keep a safe distance (at least 6 to 10 feet) from individuals.
5. If you're sick, please stay home.
6. There is no treatment or cure for the COVID-19.
7. Follow state and federal laws regarding this.
8. Do not hoard items like toilet paper, bread, gloves, hand sanitizer, etc.
9. Use social media like Facebook Messenger, Google Duo, Skype or social media to connect.
10. COVID-19 can live on surfaces for more than 72 hours. Including steel, plastic and cardboard.
11. A pandemic has no timeline.
12. COVID-19 doesn't care about borders.
The coronavirus doesn't care about your age, race, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, politics, economic or social standings. It doesn't care about anything. It's a living organism that causes mild symptoms that include: fever, sore throats, chills, respiratory issues, loss of taste or smell and other unknown symptoms.
