Pissed off liberals now demand that 100 Senators cannot vote on a USSC Justice
So we are supposed to delay 100 Senators to vote on a Justice till "after" two hundred million Americans vote in November? Of the two, which is the real "super spreader" that would make more sense to delay for purposes "public safety"?

Flashback Quote of the Day
”We will not see diseases like the coronavirus come here… Isn’t that refreshing when contrasting it with the awful presidency of President Obama?”
— Kayleigh McEnany, on Fox News, February 25, 2020.
Which would best express the will of the people?
Force this through and then pray the Dems don't get
the House (they will)
the Presidency (they will)
the Senate (they very well may)
Biden is leading Trump by eight percentage points in Arizona, a state that hasn’t voted for a Democrat for president since 1996, according to a New York Times-Siena College poll.
The poll finds Biden drawing the support of 49 percent of likely voters compared with 41 percent for Trump.
The margin is somewhat larger than a Washington Post average of other recent polls in Arizona, which shows Biden leading by five percentage points.
The survey occurred after last week’s chaotic debate between the Republican incumbent and his Democratic challenger. Some respondents were questioned before the announcement that Trump had tested positive for the coronavirus, while some were questioned afterward.
Biden’s lead is being fueled by women, younger voters and Hispanic voters, the poll finds. In 2016, Trump carried Arizona over Democrat Hillary Clinton by about three and a half percentage points.
The Times-Siena poll also finds that retired astronaut Mark Kelly, a Democrat, is leading Sen. Martha McSally (R-Ariz.), 50 percent to 39 percent.
simply brilliant as liberals have proven unequivocally that protest DO NOT spread COVID.
WASHINGTON, D.C.—In what's being hailed as a 14-dimensional Go move, President Trump added a Black Lives Matter decal to his SUV so he can take as many trips outside the hospital as he wants, and the media won't be able to claim he's spreading COVID.
"Checkmate," Trump said as he smiled and waved to reporters. "This is fantastic. Now, if I want to go grab a milkshake from the McDonald's drive-thru -- bam, Black Lives Matter sticker. Can't touch me. Can't criticize me. It's beautiful. Tremendous, really."
With his newfound freedom, Trump instructed his motorcade to drive around the city. The president waved at supporters -- referred to as "peaceful protesters" -- and stopped at the drive-in to catch Tenet. He even shared a bucket of popcorn with Secret Service agents, and not a single reporter was able to claim he was spreading the virus, thanks to his handy decal.

Biden wants to raise the minimum wage. The right wing claimed that it will trickle down to the middle class American people.
It's not true. The Wall Street journal said the same thing again.
Take Mr. Biden’s stance on the federal minimum wage, which he wants to increase to $15 an hour from $7.25. Why transfer income to low-wage workers as opposed to poor people generally? Mr. Biden has ignored the question. But even if you’re laser-focused on raising wages, there are better alternatives. The Earned Income Tax Credit increases after-tax wages and gives businesses an incentive to hire more employees—an incentive the minimum wage gets backward.
The EITC also allows workers the flexibility to negotiate with employers, accepting a lower wage in exchange for more-flexible hours or better conditions. The minimum wage precludes that. So why does Mr. Biden want to raise the minimum wage instead of the EITC? He hasn’t said, so I have two guesses, neither of which reflects well on him.

Guess No. 1: He’s dissembling about the cost. The EITC comes out of the federal budget, where the burden is visible and widely shared. The minimum wage, by contrast, comes directly from employers but indirectly (after firms shrink and prices rise) from consumers. A minimum wage is a stealth tax on eating at McDonald’s or shopping at Walmart.
It is understandable but disheartening that a politician would favor a stealth tax over a transparent budget item. Mr. Biden should acknowledge the cost of wage hikes and argue for accepting it. Instead he’s silent about the cost, hoping he can foist it on people who won’t realize they’re footing this bill.
Guess No. 2: He’s rewarding his friends and punishing his enemies. New York is going to vote for Mr. Biden. The state also has a high cost of living and high wages—so New Yorkers would be largely unaffected by the minimum-wage hike. Alabama is going to vote against Mr. Biden. Alabama has a low cost of living and relatively low wages—so under the Biden plan Alabama firms would shrink, to the benefit of competitors in New York. Alabama workers and consumers would pay a greater price than New Yorkers.
Of the 20 states with the lowest average wages, only New Mexico is pulling solidly for Mr. Biden in November. Of the 20 with the highest wages, all but Alaska, North Dakota and Wyoming look set to support Mr. Biden. A nationwide minimum-wage hike is an effective way to punish red states and reward blue ones. This isn’t a new way of thinking: Federal minimum wages were proposed in the 1930s for the explicit purpose of protecting northern textile firms from southern competition.
Another alternative to the minimum wage is to cut taxes on investment income, encouraging the construction of factories and equipment that make workers more productive and able to command higher wages in the marketplace. But Mr. Biden wants to raise these taxes, not lower them. The rich should pay more, he argues. But there are plenty of ways to make them pay—a graduated consumption tax, for one—without hurting workers.
Mr. Biden’s case for higher taxes on investment, like his case for raising the minimum wage, is long on bluster and avoids an honest reckoning of costs, benefits and alternatives. That’s what I was hoping to vote against.
He may have an advantage degree but he is full of shit

Biden wants to raise the minimum wage.
of course he does. there is no greater pander than raising the min wage for people who think the min wage is a fucking career. and the democrat base really is THAT stupid.
min wage = lifetime wage.
fucking brilliant.
My vote will go to the man who cares about the people of the United States, the man who will do his best to protect us, the man who does not just care about the rich, a man who does not continually spew hate and lies , a man who does not mock sick people or people with disabilities. I will vote for a man who does not need his ego stroked above everything else, a man who is kind, a man who believes we all deserve healthcare, clean water, clean air. a man who believes the rich and the corporations should pay their fair share. I will vote for a man who believes in women's rights, a man who believes Black Lives Matter and until they do then not all lives matter. I man who believes the only race is the Human Race. A man who will support our foreign allies. My vote will be going to #BidenHarris
Trickle-down tax cuts have consistently failed to benefit working families
The past quarter century has tested the supply-side theory that top-bracket tax cuts would boost economic growth and jobs. This theory has decidedly failed.
In 1993, President Bill Clinton raised taxes on top earners from 31 percent to 39.6 percent. Conservatives predicted disaster;3 instead, the economy boomed. 23 million jobs were created and the economy grew for 32 straight quarters in what was then the longest expansion in history.4By contrast, in 2001 and 2003, President George W. Bush cut income taxes substantially, lowering the top rate to 35 percent while also lowering top rates on capital gains and dividends. Conservatives maintained that the tax cuts would turbocharge economic growth; in fact, conservative think tank The Heritage Foundation predicted that growth would be so strong that the United States would entirely pay off its debt by 2010.5 Instead, the ensuing years saw weak growth, followed by the 2008 economic collapse. And as economist Danny Yagan has found, the steep cuts in dividend tax rates signed into law by President Bush in 2003 did not increase corporate investment or worker pay.6The Bush-era tax rates stayed in place through 2012, but at the end of that year, President Barack Obama struck a deal to restore the 39.6 percent top tax rate and raise the tax rates on capital gains and dividends. Again, many conservatives predicted doomsday.7 However, the economy grew steadily, until the pandemic began in January.
https://www.americanprogress.org/issues/economy/reports/2017/08/24/437625/trickle-tax-cuts-dont-create-jobs/#:~:text=Trickle%2Ddown%20tax%20cuts%20have,This%20theory%20has%20decidedly%20failed.&text=Instead%2C%20the%20ensuing%20years%20saw,by%20the%202008%20economic%20collapse.
The Center for American Progress (CAP) describes itself as “an independent nonpartisan educational institute dedicated to improving the lives of Americans through progressive ideas and action” in such areas as “energy, national security, economic growth and opportunity, immigration, education, and health care.” CAP is a key member of the Shadow Party, a network of non-profit activist groups organized by George Soros and others to mobilize resources — money, get-out-the-vote drives, campaign advertising, and policy initatives — to advance Democratic Party agendas.
The prime mover behind CAP’s creation was the billionaire philanthropist George Soros. Deeply disappointed by George W. Bush’s presidential election victory in 2000, and by the subsequent election of Republican majorities in both houses of Congress two years later, Soros was convinced that the Republicans’ success was a result of their superior think-tank infrastructure and media presence. Thus he called for the creation of a new left-wing, pro-Democrat think tank that, with proper funding, could establish a high-profile media presence of its own—and thereby counter the conservative message machine more directly than did existing liberal-left thinks such as the Brookings Institution, the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, the Urban Institute, and Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government.
My vote will go to the man who cares about the people of the United States, the man who will do his best to protect us, the man who does not just care about the rich, a man who does not continually spew hate and lies , a man who does not mock sick people or people with disabilities.

Trump Desperate to Leave Hospital
A source familiar with President Trump’s phone calls from the hospital today tells CNN that he said “I need to get out of here.”
Trump is being warned that if he rushes to leave the hospital and has a setback it would be bad for not just his health, but his re-election campaign.

North Carolina Senate Race Unaffected by Recent News
2:19 pm
A new Public Policy Polling survey finds Cal Cunningham (D) leading Sen. Thom Tillis (R) in North Carolina’s U.S. Senate race, 48% to 42%.
The news that Cunningham was sending sexually explicit texts to a woman who was not his wife is having somewhat of an impact on Cunningham’s favorability rating, with 37% saying they have a positive opinion of him to 39% with a negative one. But that -2 net favorability rating is still 21 points better than Tillis’ — he’s at -23 with 31% of voters having a favorable opinion of him to 54% with an unfavorable one.
____________
I'm GLAD to hear this. I was afraid Cunningham's explicit texts would doom his chances, but apparently not. I want him to pick up this Senate seat for the Dems.

CDC Updates Advice on Airborne Transmission of Virus
The CDC finally acknowledged that people “can sometimes be infected with the coronavirus through airborne transmission, especially in enclosed spaces with inadequate ventilation,” the Washington Post reports.
“The long-awaited update to the agency Web page explaining how the virus spreads represents an official acknowledgment of growing evidence that under certain conditions, people farther than six feet apart can become infected by tiny droplets and particles that float in the air for minutes and hours, and that they play a role in the pandemic.”

GOP Senators See No Supreme Court Bounce Yet
3:59 pm
Washington Post:
“In a tumultuous year marked by a pandemic that has killed nearly 210,000 Americans and civil unrest, Republicans saw the fight over a Supreme Court vacancy as a chance to boost their political fortunes. Court fights typically rally the GOP base, and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) encouraged Trump to move quickly to select a conservative nominee to galvanize voters.
“But the GOP’s predicted Supreme Court bump has yet to materialize. And the party is now facing down a new level of uncertainty as the coronavirus spreads in GOP circles in Washington, with Sens. Thom Tillis (NC), Mike Lee (UT) and Ron Johnson (WI) testing positive.”

Wow! How did this happen? I’ll explain:
The poll sampled 35% DEM, 27% REP, 38% IND. So a DEM+8 vs REP.
The last poll sampled DEM+3.
So they changed the weighting by 5 points and now report “OMG BIDEN IS UP ANOTHER 6 POINTS FROM THE LAST POLL!”
It’s a fraudulent industry.

ROCHESTER, NY — Mayor Lovely Warren has been indicted on two felony campaign finance charges, Monroe County District Attorney Sandra Doorley announced Friday.
The first charge is for first-degree scheme to defraud; the second is an election law offense for illegally coordinating activities and expenditures.
The grand jury indictment is connected to Warren's 2017 mayoral re-election campaign. Warren has adamantly refused any wrongdoing in the matter.
Warren and two campaign associates also indicted Friday will be arraigned at 4 p.m. Monday, Oct. 5, in front of Cayuga County Judge Thomas Leone in Monroe County.
If convicted of the felony charges, Warren would be removed from office under state law. The maximum sentence would be 16 months to four years in prison, but Warren would be unlikely to be incarcerated. Her pension could be forfeited, however, if the matter is determined to be a crime related to public office, and she also could lose her law license.

no biggie. BLM can find some other shitbag to run.
America has experienced an extended period of national parity between the two parties. Elections have swung back and forth in an almost predictable pendulum fashion since 1992 — unified control of one party, divided government, unified control of the other party, and so forth, over and over.
This back and forth has defied predictions of permanent Republican and Democratic majorities, but the closeness of elections has kept such elusive predictions of total domination both tantalizingly within reach (for one side) and dangerously close (for the other side). Simultaneously, the swings in power have imparted the lesson that when you’re down, the best thing to do is demonize the other side, refuse to compromise, wait for public opinion to tack against the party in power and ride the pendulum back to a majority.
These contradictory impulses lead to a few big policy swings (consider the changes on health care and tax policy under the Trump administration) during periods of unified government, and increasingly, in executive branch activities. They also create gridlock elsewhere and lead to a politics of zero-sum messaging, in which the party trying to win back the White House never has any incentive to compromise because it just blurs the message and helps the party in power seem more successful and legitimate. Thus, frustration — and the stakes of elections — keep rising.
Yet beneath the surface of hyper-partisan politics, the parties themselves actually have a lot of internal division, which means they share a version of the same dilemma: Republicans and Democrats can’t please all the different voters and groups who fall into their party and want their issue to be prioritized. But in a polarized two-party system, they can make it clear why the other party is bad.
Coming into their convention, for instance, Democrats had to repair splits between the progressives and the moderates that were visible during the presidential primary. But the convention focused less on policy and more on the existential risk presented by a second Trump term. The party reminded people that, whatever concerns they have about Biden, a vote for Biden is also a vote against Trump.
Republicans similarly focused on messaging against the Democrats (even if one of the reasons Trump emerged victorious in the 2016 primary was because the party was so divided that it couldn’t decide). Trump has remade the party in his image, but even for the few remaining Trump-skeptic Republicans, nothing unites like a common enemy. And in a two-party system, being anti-anti-Trump counts the same as being pro-Trump.
If all of this seems unsustainable, it should. The current levels of hyper-partisanship are clearly dangerous. It’s bad news for a democracy when 60 to 70 percent of people view fellow citizens of the other party as a serious threat. And the more the parties continue to unify their supporters by casting the other party as the enemy, the higher this number will rise.
There are two possible ways this ends. The first is the one we all fear — the unwinding of our democracy, because one or both sides hate each other so much that they are willing to support anti-democratic and authoritarian leadership in order to maintain power. (This is the threat Democrats have explicitly raised in recent months.)
The other scenario is a major realignment and/or a collapse of one (or both) of the two major parties, which could reorient American political coalitions and resurrect some of the overlaps of an earlier era. The growing partisan hatreds and the forces driving them have been a long time in the making. It’s possible they are coming to an end. But more than any other time in the last century and a half, they are testing the very foundations of American democracy.
Lee Drutman is a senior fellow in the Political Reform program at New America. He’s the author of the book, “Breaking the Two-Party Doom Loop: The Case for Multiparty Democracy in America.”
I actually hope that the Republicans will recover from Trumpism.
It’s a fraudulent industry.

Why stocks are rallying while President Trump battles COVID-19
Brian Sozzi
Brian Sozzi·Editor-at-Large
Mon, October 5, 2020, 1:01 PM EDT
At first blush, it wouldn’t make sense that the stock market rallies as the leader of the free world battles with the potentially lethal disease that is COVID-19.
But that is just what has happened on Monday even as questions swirl around the president’s true health, when he may leave as a patient of Walter Reed Medical Center and the functioning of government as administration members (and Senators who had contact with Trump recently) encounter their own cases of coronavirus. For astute market watchers, however, the risk on the rally today isn’t a shock when it comes to all things President Trump. They say a change in the White House would be a welcome relief from the latest bout of chaos from the administration.
And with that relief, more certainty — something asset prices always seem to love one way or another.
“To me, the optimism in the market has to do with an increased conviction that Joe Biden will win [the presidency] and that will bring in a Blue Wave which in turn, will bring a large fiscal stimulus package early next year,” explained Compass Point Research director of policy research Isaac Boltansky on Yahoo Finance’s The First Trade. “There is no doubt in a Blue Wave scenario you will have higher taxes for capital, for corporations and high earners. There is no doubt of that. As the market slowly gets its arms around those realities and digs into the potential legislative responses, it sees not just higher taxes but also a broader fiscal expansion that would come from a Blue Wave especially farther down the economic spectrum. I think those types of puts ands takes are considered coupled with more certainty.”

WASHINGTON - Secret Service agents and medical professionals were aghast Sunday night at President Donald Trump's Sunday evening trip outside the hospital where he is being treated for the coronavirus, saying the president endangered those inside his SUV for a publicity stunt.
As the backlash grew, aides who were not authorized to speak publicly rrb lost his mind also called Trump's outing to wave at supportive crowds an unnecessary risk, but said the move was not surprising. Trump had said he was bored in the hospital, advisers said. He wanted to show strength after his chief of staff offered a grimmer assessment of his health than doctors, according to campaign and White House officials.

Biden Gets Small Bounce After Debate
4:51 pm EDT
Nate Silver:
“The debate provides a clear enough line in the sand… that it’s worth doing a before-and-after comparison of the polls. One way to discern this is via our national polling average, where Biden’s lead has inched up to 8.1 points from 7.1 points before the debate.
“Another way to see this is by comparing post-debate polls to the last, pre-debate version of both national polls and polls of the same states by the same polling firms… And on average, Biden gained 1.5 percentage points from the pre-debate to the post-debate versions of these polls.
“In some cases, the pre-debate poll was conducted months before the debate. But even if we only focus on the polls that released results at some point in September, the top line is similar:
"Biden’s gain is 1.4 percentage points, on average. And for what it’s worth, a swing of 1 or 2 points toward Biden is consistent with the effects that first debates have had for challengers in the past.”

Poor ole Trump got no bounce at all from the debate he "won."
Most Say Trump Acted Irresponsibly
4:47 pm EDT
A new CNN poll finds 63% of Americans say President Trump handled the risk of coronavirus infection to others around him irresponsibly.
“Disapproval of the President’s handling of the coronavirus outbreak stands at a new high in the survey, with
60% saying they disapprove.
Additionally, 63% say his own infection is unlikely to change anything about the way that he handles the pandemic.”
__________
So the public has caught on. He never learns nuthin' from his mistakes.
I forgot to say: 4:01 made me laugh.
If Wallace had handled the debate the way I earlier suggested, Biden would have gained an even bigger bounce.
So many people were so turned off by the whole thing that they thought neither could be declared a winner.
Hey, Roger, do you see what's going on here?
Just by ignoring the twerps on the next thread up, this thread is enriched, even if it does have rat posting here!

On Aug. 18, the Senate Intelligence Committee released a 1,300-page report characterizing the involvement of Russian intelligence operatives with officials of the 2016 Trump presidential campaign as an “aggressive, multifaceted effort to influence, or attempt to influence, the outcome of the 2016 presidential election.” The report detailed the longstanding relationship between Paul Manafort, Donald Trump’s campaign manager, and a Russian intelligence operative named Konstantin Kilimnik, while also describing the links of other Russian intelligence figures to Trump family members, notably Donald Jr. and Jared Kushner, and to such Trump confidants as Roger Stone and Michael Flynn, briefly the president’s national security adviser.
As to be expected, President Trump immediately denounced the report as “a hoax” (never mind that it was authored by a Republican-controlled committee), while his inner circle adopted their usual stance on such matters, either staying mum or decrying the committee’s work as a tired retread of last year’s Mueller report. The real scandal, the president declaimed, was the deep state “witch hunt” against him that spurred these investigations in the first place.
If this latest chapter in the four-year Russiagate drama is unlikely to change many minds, at least one person has examined the Senate’s findings with both great interest and alarm. His name is Peter Sichel and, at the age of 97, he is the last surviving member of the early CIA that faced off with the Soviets at the start of the Cold War.
‘CANNOT HAPPEN AGAIN’
An escapee from Nazi Germany in the mid-1930s, Sichel served with the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), the United States’ wartime intelligence agency, during World War II. In October 1945, just months after war’s end, he was dispatched to Berlin to take charge of the local clandestine wing of an embryonic American intelligence outfit called the Strategic Services Unit, a precursor to the CIA. That posting placed Sichel at ground zero of the Cold War already beginning to take shape between the Soviet Union and its wartime Western allies, and gave him a front-row seat in observing precisely how the Soviets were taking over in Eastern Europe.
“Most people have this idea that they came in and grabbed all those countries by force,” Sichel explained, “but that is not true. In almost every case, they worked within the structure of the prewar political parties and just gradually coopted them.”
Tuberville Holds Wide Lead In Alabama Senate Race
A new Auburn University poll in Alabama finds Tommy Tuberville (R) leading Sen. Doug Jones (D) in the U.S. Senate race by 12 points, 54% to 42%.
____________
I don't like this a bit. Not one single bit.
Through his contacts in Soviet-controlled eastern Germany, Sichel witnessed how the Soviets first coerced the local left and center-left political parties to join together, and to then accept the overall leadership of the embryonic German communist party. “They did this both by threats—if a political figure resisted, he could be threatened with arrest as a Nazi war criminal—and enticements. Remember, Germany was in absolute ruins at the time, so it didn’t take much—the offer of a car or an allotment of food—to bring people in line. Their ambition was to take over the political parties, but to pretend it was the will of the people.”
Sichel’s early 1946 report on the methods the Soviets were using to coopt the eastern German political parties was the first detailed examination of the phenomenon, one soon emulated in the other Eastern European nations under their military control. Once they comprised a sizeable minority in the government, the communist-led coalitions would then start taking control of key ministries, notably the police and internal security services, until they could take over outright. One of the ultimate beneficiaries of this approach, a Hungarian communist leader named Matyas Rakosi, called it “salami tactics,” the process of joining the existing political system and then slicing away at it until there was nothing left.
In this regard, one revelation in the Senate Intelligence Committee report stood out to Sichel. Contrary to most previous assumptions, Senate investigators found that the Russian intelligence campaign to gain influence with the Republican party began well before Trump emerged as a viable candidate, in keeping with Vladimir Putin’s scheme to help thwart a Hillary Clinton presidency however he could. This fit with the pattern the old CIA hand had seen in Eastern Europe.
“One great advantage the Soviets always had over us,” Sichel explained, “is that they played the long game. We thought in terms of quarters, whereas they thought in terms of years or even decades. They were opportunistic, willing to let matters gradually develop until the right political faction or right leader to support had emerged.”
“Scattered throughout the Senate report is a litany of instances in which Trump’s associates left themselves open to Russian blackmail.”
This found echo in the years prior to 2016 in the series of ties that Putin, an old KGB man himself, fostered with right-wing political figures and fringe groups across the breadth of Europe. However much those ties may have appeared to run counter to Putin’s open nostalgia for the good old days of Soviet communist rule, they shared the common ground of ultra-nationalism.
This paid great dividends for the Russian ruler, for these same nationalist groups were at the forefront in their respective countries in calling for the dissolution or weakening of NATO and the European Union, two long-term Putin goals. For the same reason, the Russian leadership could only have been thrilled by Trump’s steady climb toward the Republican nomination. Far more than with any other Republican running for president, Trump’s xenophobic, America First rhetoric dovetailed with Putin’s own version, while Trump’s promise of a diminished American role on the global stage was the stuff of Russian fantasy. Little wonder that Putin’s minions would do anything in their power to help propel the hotel magnate and reality show host into the White House.

Most Americans say Trump acted irresponsibly and distrust White House on his health.
By Jennifer Agiesta, CNN Polling Director
Two-thirds of Americans say President Donald Trump handled the risk of coronavirus infection to others around him irresponsibly, according to a new CNN Poll conducted by SSRS in the days following the announcement that the President had contracted the virus that has disrupted everyday life for millions of people for more than half a year.
With Trump hospitalized at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, 69% of Americans said they trusted little of what they heard from the White House about the President's health, with only 12% saying they trusted almost all of it.
Disapproval of the President's handling of the coronavirus outbreak stands at a new high in the survey, with 60% saying they disapprove. Additionally, 63% say his own infection is unlikely to change anything about the way that he handles the pandemic.
View 2020 presidential election polling
Questions about Trump's coronavirus diagnosis were added to a survey already in progress on Friday.
Overall, Trump's approval rating in the poll stands at 40% approve to 57% disapprove. Disapproval is up from 53% in early September.

Therefore I will ignore them, except I will say this:
The phrase "....a well regulated capitalist government that will share the wealth and not limit it to the Super rich" is completely clear in itself and needs no explaining. And so Roger is right to ignore the ignorant "demand" for an explanation of it.

Is he losing his mind?
After landing on the South Lawn, Mr. Trump ascended a flight of stairs and then turned to face his helicopter — and the live television cameras — and removed his mask before giving the departing Marine One a long salute.
He then turned and walked into the White House residence — without donning his mask.

White House Is Not Contact Tracing
6:10 pm
“Despite almost daily disclosures of new coronavirus infections among President Trump’s close associates, the White House is making little effort to investigate the scope and source of its outbreak,” the New York Times reports.
“The White House has decided not to trace the contacts of guests and staff members at the Rose Garden celebration 10 days ago for Judge Amy Coney Barrett, where at least eight people, including the president, may have become infected.”
He doesn't remember when President Theodore Roosevelt broke up Standard Oil Company because they had a monopoly on oil production and prices of all the products and set the price as high as they could, because there was no competition!
Kputz is a very stupid person.
That last post seems to indicate that Trump's
White House people are obeying orders from him not to play up this virus by contacting people who could be at risk.
It's beginning to seem more and more like a new impeachment process is called for. Pelosi said something along that line recently.
Ignore him. Adults are speaking here. Children may go to the next thread up. ;-p
The 25th amendment could also be invoked.
Don't forget how this disease works, here is a reminder. A Herman Cain/coronavirus timeline:
6/20: Attends Trump rally, maskless
7/2: Tests positive for Covid-19
7/10: Says he’s improving
7/15: Says his doctors seem happy
7/27: Says he’s really getting better
7/30: Dies
Chilling!
Why our leaders in government, both Republican and Democratic, should be absolutely CLAMORING for the White House to initiate widespread tracing measures. Why aren't they?
It is criminal not to.

Trump's Son Says He's Insane
Republicans Gripped by Dread as Multiple Crises Swirl
8:31 pm Politico:
“Trump’s Republican critics have long argued that he was a virus infecting their party that would eventually destroy it.
Trump skeptics-turned-supporters, which could describe most Washington Republicans, made a different calculation:
If the worst elements of Trump could be contained, then Republicans could keep a Democrat out of the White House,
lock in a majority on the Supreme Court
and protect their redoubt in the Senate.
Even before Trump’s diagnosis, the cost of the deal with Trump was starting to look high.
But the path to pushing through Barrett and retaining the Senate and even White House was hardly insurmountable.
“That an actual virus has now infected Trump, his wife, his campaign manager, the head of the Republican National Committee, several advisers, and three senators — many of them at a celebration of Barrett’s nomination — thus throwing all three of the GOP’s 2020 goals into chaos, is a plot twist that would be rejected by any writer as just a little too on the nose.”

Trump Leaves Hospital, but Doctor Says He Isn’t ‘Out of the Woods’
President Trump left the Walter Reed medical center after spending three nights there being treated for Covid-19. His physician, Dr. Sean P. Conley, said earlier in the day that the president was not “out of the woods yet.”
After spending three nights at the Walter Reed medical center, President Trump returned on Monday evening to the White House, where he will continue to receive treatment for Covid-19. His physician, Dr. Sean P. Conley, had said earlier in the day that the president was not “out of the woods yet.”
Mr. Trump, wearing a mask and a suit, passed through the hospital’s large golden doors, paused atop a flight of steps and pumped his fist a few times at chest level. He did not respond to shouted questions from the news media as he walked past, unaccompanied. “Thank you very much, everybody,” he said with a wave.
Mr. Trump then boarded a black S.U.V. that drove him to his presidential helicopter, Marine One, for the short flight to the White House. He offered a thumbs-up just before stepping onto his helicopter, which departed just after 6:45 p.m. for the 10-minute flight.
After landing on the South Lawn, Mr. Trump ascended a flight of stairs and then turned to face his helicopter — and the live television cameras — and removed his mask before giving the departing Marine One a long salute.

Trump Removes Mask Despite Covid-19 InfectionAfter President Trump arrived at the White House on Monday, he climbed stairs to a balcony and took off his mask. He had been treated for the coronavirus for three nights at the Walter Reed medical center.

He then turned and walked into the White House residence — without donning his mask. Several masked people, including what appeared to be an official photographer capturing the moment, were inside.
The three major network newscasts on ABC, CBS and NBC carried it all live, the kind of blanket television coverage that Mr. Trump relishes. But after climbing the stairs, Mr. Trump appeared to be short of breath.
At a briefing earlier in the day, Dr. Conley said, “Over the past 24 hours, the president has continued to improve,” adding, “He’s met or exceeded all standard hospital discharge criteria.”
The president’s doctors evaded some key questions about the president’s condition, including his lung function and the date of his last negative coronavirus test before he tested positive. They said that he had received a third dose of the antiviral drug remdesivir, and that he has continued to take dexamethasone, a steroid drug that has been shown to be beneficial to patients who are very sick with Covid-19.
“We’re looking to this weekend,” Dr. Conley said. “If we can get through to Monday, with him remaining the same or improving better yet, then we will all take that final deep sigh of relief.”
Dr. Conley did not give a firm answer about whether Mr. Trump would be confined to his residence. The West Wing is experiencing a growing outbreak, with Mr. Trump’s press secretary, Kayleigh McEnany, joining the list on Monday of his close aides who have tested positive.
The doctors’ remarks came after Mr. Trump tweeted that he would be returning to the White House, which is equipped with a medical suite. In doing so, as he has throughout the pandemic, he downplayed the seriousness of a virus that has killed more than 209,000 people in the United States, writing in his post, “Don’t be afraid of Covid. Don’t let it dominate your life.”
After returning home, the president later posted a video on Twitter, where he again downplayed the virus, saying, “One thing that’s for certain: don’t let it dominate you; don’t be afraid of it. You’re going to beat it.”
That exhortation quickly resonated, with some Democrats, scientists and relatives of victims denouncing the president as cavalier and dismissive about a disease that has killed so many, sickened more than 7.4 million and upended daily life across the country.
It was not the first time Mr. Trump has drawn criticism for being cavalier about the pandemic. On Sunday, when he left his quarters at Walter Reed to wave to supporters from an S.U.V., some doctors and others noted the “irresponsibility” of being in a sealed vehicle and potentially exposing Secret Service agents for an unnecessary stunt.
Critics also noted the president is receiving care that isn’t available to most people, including an experimental antibody treatment that is still being tested in clinical trials and has been given to only a few hundred people.
Let's make this clear.
This is WHAT IS HAPPENING!!
Trump is controlling his medical treatments. He thinks he knows more than the doctors. Likely, he has left the hospital because he is tired of struggling with making his desires into mandates. And it is likely he will command to move the necessities from the hospital to the White House to perpetuate this fraud.
Trump is controlling the strategy of the Secret Service. According to today’s Washington Post, he has destroyed the best-made plans and endangered his own protectors.
Trump is controlling the narrative with an iron grip. This may be the worst thing of all. By downplaying his illness, he hopes to save the election REGARDLESS of risks to his own health AND those around him. Like any drug addict, he is cleaning out the medicine cabinet and taking everything at once. The Science Experiment that is Trump, with two unproven drugs.
He would rather die than lose. He is doing everything he can to ensure his near future includes both.
He was struggling to breathe!
Goldman Sachs thinks a blue wave of Democrats — meaning full control of government via the presidency (Joe Biden), Senate and House — come November could be good for the U.S. economy.
“All else equal, such a blue wave would likely prompt us to upgrade our forecasts. The reason is that it would sharply raise the probability of a fiscal stimulus package of at least $2 trillion shortly after the presidential inauguration on January 20, followed by longer-term spending increases on infrastructure, climate, health care and education that would at least match the likely longer-term tax increases on corporations and upper-income earners,” wrote Goldman Sachs economist Jan Hatzius in a new note to clients on Monday.
Hatzius estimates such a fiscal stimulus package could bump up growth by two to three percentage points in 2021.
Talk of a blue wave happening have ratcheted higher as the fallout from President Trump’s COVID-19 diagnosis rages on. Not helping Trump is a debacle of a first presidential debate with Democratic nominee Joe Biden and an economy continuing to be ravaged by a pandemic the president has frequently downplayed.
No incumbent exemplifies the current position of the GOP more than Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (S.C.). Four years ago, Graham was unrestrained in his contempt for Trump, calling him “unfit” and a “race-baiting, xenophobic, religious bigot.”

Harris Preps to Take on Pence
6:19 am
Politico:
“Harris’ tone toward the laid-up president is expected to mirror Biden’s of late, according to aides and allies. The Democratic presidential contender and Harris have wished the president a speedy recovery. Their campaign pulled negative TV ads and implored staff to refrain from piling on to reporters and on social media, though as Trump emerged from the hospital late Monday, Biden suggested he would not let him off the hook for not wearing a mask and flaunting social distancing protocols.
“The grim circumstances don’t change Harris’ overarching objective:
to methodically yolk Pence to the Trump administration’s months of failures to contain the virus,
zeroing in on his role as chair of the White House Coronavirus Task Force.
The legal threat to the Affordable Care Act —
clarified by the battle over the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s seat — will be another focal point for Harris.
And after Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito lamented Monday the ‘ruinous consequences for religious liberty’ of the court’s decision that granted marriage rights — and signaled that the ruling should be reconsidered — the VP contenders’ sharply divergent records on same-sex marriage are likely to surface.”

The survey also found likely voters supporting Biden by wide margins on several issues. Voters prefer the former vice president on Supreme Court nominations, 57 to 41 percent. Biden also leads on health care, 59 to 39 percent, and on the coronavirus pandemic, 59 to 38 percent.
On racial inequality, Biden leads, 62 to 36 percent, and he leads on crime and public safety, 55 to 43 percent. The two are statistically tied on the economy, with 50 percent preferring Biden versus 48 percent preferring Trump.
The survey also finds Biden leading on whom respondents consider honest and trustworthy, 58 to 33 percent. He also leads on the question of which candidate “cares about people like you,” 58 to 38 percent, and on who has a clear plan to solve the country’s problems, 55 to 39 percent.
While most surveys show Biden leading Trump among women, the CNN poll shows him beating Trump among women by a 2 to 1 margin, at 66 to 32 percent. This is an increase from a September poll that put his lead at 20 percentage points.

Downplaying the threat of the virus he’s currently fighting, President Trump compared Covid-19 to the flu, again, tweeting that “many people every year, sometimes over 100,000, and despite the Vaccine, die from the Flu,” and falsely claiming coronavirus is “in most populations far less lethal!!!”
“Are we going to close down our Country?,” Trump asked in a tweet Tuesday morning. “No, we have learned to live with it, just like we are learning to live with Covid, in most populations far less lethal!!!”
More than 210,000 Americans have died of the Covid in 10 months. It is more deadly than the flu. The President just spent three nights in the hospital after testing positive for it. On Feb. 7, Trump told journalist Bob Woodward that coronavirus was "more deadly than even your strenuous flus."
"This is deadly stuff," Trump told Woodward.
Risks Rise in the West Wing
8:57 am
“White House aides have advised President Trump to avoid the Oval Office while he’s still infected. But they’re making arrangements for him to work out of the Diplomatic Reception Room, and use it as a backdrop for future televised remarks,” Axios reports.
“The preparations show that far from bunkering down in the residence until he’s well, Trump is considering remaining active while he recovers from COVID. Any Trump movement in the West Wing would create a series of risks for his staff.”
Republicans Seem Determined to Play Russian Roulette
8:53 am
Walter Shapiro:
“Their rationale for four years of silence — aside from a few brave figures like former Sen. Jeff Flake and (usually) Mitt Romney — was unreasoning terror. That is, crippling fear of a primary challenge from a Trumpian true believer.
“But there is no justification for the self-destructive behavior of many congressional Republicans in the face of COVID-19. It is hard to imagine a 2022 primary challenge against Republicans solely for wearing a mask on an airplane or staying home when they feared they would test positive for the coronavirus.
“Then what explains these incidents of heedless behavior by Republicans who presumably should know better?”
__________
And now Trump has staff running around the White House trying to avoid him.
“It was an act of transcendent masochism, but we should be grateful he did it because What Were We Thinking looks past the obvious and perverse — that is, past Trump himself — to the troublesome questions raised by the elevation of a soulless carnival barker to the nation’s highest office.”
oh my. what a remarkable undertaking. the heroism required to sit there and read - READ! - is nothing less than extraordinary.
this brave firefighter needs to be in your thoughts and prayers.
please consider this super-hero for every award from a P-U-litzer, to a No Bell, to the Dan Rather Memorial Medal of Lying Asshattery.
all hail!
LOL.
Biden Expands Ad Buys In Ohio as Early Voting Starts
9:28 am
“Joe Biden is expanding his ad buys into every corner of Ohio as early voting begins Tuesday, signaling his campaign’s growing hopes that a state Donald Trump won easily four years ago may be within the former vice president’s grasp,” the AP reports.
“The new spots will air on radio in rural, traditionally Republican areas of the state… as well as on TV in Dayton. That adds to television advertising already announced in Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati and on Black radio stations.”

White House Staff Frustrated and Angry
October
Associated Press:
“The mood within the White House remains somber, with staff fearful they may have been exposed to the virus. As they confront a new reality — a worksite that once seemed like a bubble of safety is anything but — they also have been engaged in finger-pointing over conflicting reports released about the president’s health as well as a lack of information provided internally.
“Many have learned about positive tests from media reports and several were exposed, without their knowledge, to people the White House already knew could be contagious.
“Indeed, it took until late Sunday night, nearly three full days after Trump’s diagnosis, for the White House to send a staff-wide note in response. Even then, it did not acknowledge the outbreak.”

Michelle Obama’s Closing Argument
Michelle Obama made her closing argument for Joe Biden in a video, arguing that President Trump has mismanaged the pandemic while “stoking fears about Black and Brown Americans.”
She adds: “So what the president is doing is, once again, patently false… it’s morally wrong… and yes, it is racist. But that doesn’t mean it won’t work.”
NO, THIS TIME IT WON'T, MICHELLE.

The Worst Photo Op Ever
10:33 am
Tim Miller:
“Trump had a choice: he could have gone for the sympathy vote; he could have shown a flash of empathy. According to the NYT, some campaign staffers thought that if Trump recovered quickly and then appeared sympathetic to the public in how he talked about his own experience and that of millions of other Americans, he could have something of a political reset.'
“In TrumpWorld, though, empathy is for cucks,* so he opted for STRENGTH instead. Or at least the video version.
“But as he stood there, maskless, breathing heavily, and about to enter a White house ravaged by the pandemic, Trump didn’t look strong.
He looked reckless.
He looked sick.
He looked like a man whose presidency was in the last stages of decadence.”
*and losers and suckers
It still blows my mind that the White House continues to prevent the CDC from implementing contact tracing for those who were present at the Rose Garden gathering where people sat in close association and almost none wore wore masks.
Cases continue to show up and numerous people are at risk.

Trump Doubles-Down on Losing Message
10:56 am
Aaron Blake:
“Over the last few days, Trump has offered what amounts to remarkable and dumbfounding double-down on his coronavirus messaging:
downplaying it,
having his doctors hide information,
taking a joyride that could endanger the people riding in the car with him,
demonstrably removing his mask upon returning to the White House,
and sending a series of tweets urging people not to be ‘afraid’ of the virus and rekindling his long-abandoned comparisons to the flu.”
“The thing is, though: None if it was working before. And there’s precious little reason to believe it will now.”
Trump Wants to Give Nationwide Televised Address
10:52 am
New York Times:
“Mr. Trump was considering some kind of a nationwide televised address, two people familiar with the discussions said. But while there were no new reports of him needing oxygen, he was still sounding somewhat short of breath in conversations, another person said.”
"Don't let it dominate you.
Don't be afraid of it."
--Donald Trump
It has dominated and killed more than 210 thousand Americans.
It has dominated and sickened some 7 million Americans.
It is rampaging right now among the White House staff and secret service.
Maybe we should all at least take precautions?
did someone reference mussolini?
New York Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo displayed a 2006 image of Jews congregating to single out the religious community when warning that enhanced lockdown measures are likely to come if the gatherings persist.
“We know religious institutions have been a problem,” Cuomo said during a Monday press conference. “These are pictures from the past couple of weeks. And these are just emblematic. … What did you think was going to happen?”
The images Cuomo displayed, however, are more than a decade old, from the funeral of Rabbi Moshe Teitelbaum, who died in 2006.
Cuomo’s comments came as the New York governor also declared the state was taking over coronavirus lockdown enforcement from New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, who tried to selectively reimpose tight restrictions on several zip codes only to be overruled by Cuomo. Several schools in hot-spot areas, however, will be shut down starting Tuesday. Cuomo gave no date for reopening.
While the governor issued no new restrictions on New York City’s religious institutions, Cuomo plans to meet with community leaders Tuesday and is prepared to shut down houses of worship if he thinks state guidelines aren’t being followed.

A Key Fix for an Unthinkable Election Disaster
11:36 am EDT
Rick Hasen:
“With coronavirus infections raging through the White House and the state of the President’s health unclear, it’s time to face up to an unsettling reality. We need to start thinking about what to do if the disease incapacitates or kills President Donald Trump or his opponent, Joe Biden — or even both of them — between now and January 6, 2021, when Congress meets to count Electoral College votes.
“These scenarios may be unlikely, but they need to be considered because being unprepared for any of them would be a calamity for our democracy.
“There is one thing each state can do now to minimize the risk: pass a law providing that voters’ votes for a deceased or incapacitated presidential candidate count toward a replacement chosen by that candidate’s party, and that state’s electoral college votes for the deceased or incapacitated candidate also go to the party replacement.”

Facebook, Twitter Take Action on False Trump Post
11:40 am, Axios reports:
Facebook on Tuesday REMOVED a post from President Trump in which he falsely claimed that COVID-19 is less deadly than the flu.
Twitter LABELED the tweet for violating its rules about “spreading misleading and potentially harmful information,” but LEFT IT UP because it may be “in the public’s interest.”
_______
Well, yes, I guess it IS in the public's interest to see so clearly what an absolutely depraved, self-interested LIAR this President is.
Well, isn't anyone going to tell us that 10:49 interferes with the President's freedom of speech to tell lies that are even dangerous to the public's health? (Bleach comes to mind.)
Trump returns to comparing COVID to the flu: 'We have learned to live with it.'
Yahoo News
President Trump on Tuesday continued to downplay the threat of the coronavirus after his release from the hospital while still under treatment for COVID-19, asserting that the virus that has killed more than 210,000 Americans is "far less lethal" than the seasonal flu “in most populations.”
"Flu season is coming up! Many people every year, sometimes over 100,000, and despite the Vaccine, die from the Flu," Trump tweeted on Tuesday morning. "Are we going to close down our Country? No, we have learned to live with it, just like we are learning to live with Covid, in most populations far less lethal!!!"
Across the whole population, though, COVID-19 has been much deadlier. According to data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control,
the worst flu season in the last 10 years was 2017-2018, when an estimated
61,000 Americans died.
In 2018-2019, there were
34,000 U.S. deaths attributed to influenza.
In 2019-2020, there were
22,000.
And comparative fatality figures don’t tell the whole story. There is increasing evidence that some number of coronavirus survivors have symptoms including fatigue, cough and cognitive problems that last for months, and organ damage that may be permanent. Those complications generally do not arise in people who recover from the flu.

The story continues, and sinks Trump even further.
This is what is coming. You guys better pay attention to it.

Roger, here comes a good one:
From the wiki article on Ian Haney Lopez:
(This man sure has Trump's number):
Ian Haney López has described Ronald Reagan as "blowing a dog whistle" when the candidate told stories about "Cadillac-driving 'welfare queens' and 'strapping young bucks' buying T-bone steaks with food stamps" while he was campaigning for the presidency.
Lopez argues that such rhetoric, also used by Trump, pushes middle-class white Americans to vote against their own economic self-interest in order to punish "undeserving minorities" who, they believe, are receiving too much public assistance at their expense.
According to Haney López, many whites, convinced by powerful economic interests that people of color are the enemy, have supported politicians who promised to curb illegal immigration and crack down on crime but in doing so voted for policies that favor the extremely rich,
policies such as slashing taxes for top income brackets,
giving corporations more regulatory control over industry and financial markets,
union busting,
cutting pensions for future public employees,
reducing funding for public schools,
and retrenching the social welfare state.
He argues that these same voters cannot link the rising inequality which has impacted their lives to the policy agendas they support,
which resulted in a massive transfer of wealth to the top 1% of the population since the 1980s.
______________
JAMES: That in a nutshell is the kind of "blame it all on the blacks and other minorities" strategy that Trump has used so effectively to fool the American, largely white middle class into thinking that their enemy is the people of minorities rather than their real enemy, the selfish wealthy like Trump who cynically use this distraction to draw attention away from their own exploitation of the majority of us while they continue to become filthy rich at the expense of the vast majority of us and the poor.
“It’s insane that he would return to the White House and jeopardize his staff’s health when we are still learning of new cases among senior staff. This place is a cesspool.”
— A White House staffer, quoted by Axios.

Goldman Sachs Says ‘Blue Wave’ Good for Economy
1:19 pm
“President Trump is once again warning voters that Democrats would “shut our economy and jobs down” if they win in November,” CNN reports.
“Goldman Sachs is telling its clients the exact opposite… Goldman economists pointed out that polls ‘suggest a blue wave in which Democrats gain unified control of Washington is becoming more likely’ — and they’re not suggesting investors dump stocks.”
In fact, “all else equal, such a blue wave would likely prompt us to upgrade our forecasts.”
Pence Objects to Plexiglass Dividers at Debate
“Vice President Pence is requesting that no plexiglass dividers be placed on his side of the stage at Wednesday night’s vice-presidential debate, after an announcement Monday by the Commission on Presidential Debates that dividers had been agreed to as a safety measure to prevent the spread of the coronavirus,” the Washington Post reports.
“Marc Short, the vice president’s chief of staff, said the vice president’s team does not view plexiglass dividers as medically necessary, given other safety measures at the debate, including a 12-foot distance between Pence and Sen. Kamala Harris and daily testing of both candidates.
“The commission and the Biden campaign both said Tuesday they understood that the Pence team was in agreement with the notion of plexiglass barriers. But the Pence team suggested they did not want any such dividers around the vice president, regardless of what Harris does.”

Has the Trump team gone insane? Does this not strengthen the accusation that neither Trump nor his team care about other people's well being?
Is it ALL just about how it "looks" with them?

“Barring another unexpected development, Trump’s declaration kills any chance of new aid for millions of Americans who remain out work and at risk of eviction. It came on the same day Federal Reserve Chair Jerome H. Powell said in a speech that more economic stimulus was needed.”

Biden’s National Lead Grows
October 6, 2020 at 4:41 pm politicalwire.com
A new Franklin Pierce University-Boston Herald poll finds Joe Biden leading Donald Trump in the presidential race nationally,
51% to 37%.
Key takeaway:
“In two days of polling before Trump got COVID, the president trailed Biden by just a
46% to 41% margin.
In the three days of polling after the coronavirus diagnosis, Biden held a
55% to 34% lead.
That means Biden’s lead grew by a whopping 16 points from pre-COVID to post-COVID.”
Chariot's a-comin'!
I just saw this.
"Joe Biden is a good man.
Donald Trump is not."
