they are daily campaign rallies. They should stop covering them immediately. The governor's are doing fine for their state briefings.

She took orangeanus apart, limb by limb. She is embarrassed and enraged by the state of things; hospitals asking people with 3D printers to make masks! Tonight was must-see TV.

Bold but factual statements.

She signed off in tears for Larry Edgeworth, a 25-year veteran of the news division, who died yesterday of CV-19.

I'm sure the PutinLump doesn't listen to her and if any staff were to dare tell him, they'd catch hell. He kills messengers.

The press shouldn't just sit there stunned when he lashes out at them either. Keep pushing back. So what if he yells like a lunatic? So what if you lose your press pass? Keep asking, and when he picks another reporter, that reporter should ask the same questions.

"The American people deserve to know why you dismantled the pandemic response team."

"You said there would be zero cases soon. You said you had it under control several times."

"You called it a hoax"

"You said we have hospital ships and millions of tests and protective equipment, but you are lying and people are DYING!"

"Why did you ignore intelligence reports that predicted this situation?"

Push him over the edge and make him snap on national TV.

unless he's introducing someone who has real information to impart. He doesn't.

Neither does that porcine windbag Pompeo, grinning and mugging like it's some big joke. Nobody wanted to hear him talk about top executives jetting off to the tropics for sales seminars. They want to know if they or their families are likely to DIE and what they can do to try to prevent it.

Instead, it's one blatting moron after another.
