Here's a link to today's task force briefing. I haven't watched it myself yet because I need to brace myself before I open myself up to hearing Pence lie his sick ass off.

Yeah, I saw that EAllusion. Move over!

Below is only an excerpt. More at the link:
(CNN)President Donald Trump appears ready to move on from a still-raging coronavirus pandemic -- skipping the first White House task force briefing in months and moving the event out of the White House itself. But the measures meant to protect him from catching the virus have scaled up dramatically.

As he seeks to insert rival Joe Biden's health into the presidential campaign, Trump has voiced escalating concern about how it would appear if he contracted coronavirus and has insisted on steps to protect himself, even as he refuses to wear a mask in public and agitates for large campaign rallies where the virus could spread.
When he travels to locations where the virus is surging, every venue the President enters is inspected for potential areas of contagion by advance security and medical teams, according to people familiar with the arrangements. Bathrooms designated for the President's use are scrubbed and sanitized before he arrives. Staff maintain a close accounting of who will come into contact with the President to ensure they receive tests.
While the White House phases out steps such as temperature checks and required mask-wearing in the West Wing -- changes meant to signal the country is moving on -- those around the President still undergo regular testing. And even as Trump attempts to put the pandemic behind him by encouraging reopening and downplaying the new surge, there are signs of the still-raging pandemic even within his orbit.

This week, the virus again struck members of the President's staff, this time a collection of campaign aides and US Secret Service personnel who had been working on Trump's campaign rally in Tulsa.

And CNN has learned a third White House staffer who was recently in Trump's vicinity also tested positive. According to two sources familiar with the matter, the staffer is a senior economic official who was in the Rose Garden with Trump during an event this month. Because of privacy concerns, CNN is not naming the individual.

So while his happy ass reaps the benefit of every possible precaution known to humankind, he is essentially leading the country to COVID-19 SLAUGHTER!

The last entry here is being posted 2.5 hours before the stats are frozen for the night. The break in the list is where I left off last.

New cases:


Jun 19: +33,090
Jun 20: +32,699
Jun 21: +24,618
Jun 22: +32,467
Jun 23: +35,100

Jun 24: +34,866
Jun 24: +34,866
Jun 25: +40,416
Jun 26: +46,693

It's fading, he said. It'll fade away, he said. One day it's going to disappear like magic, he said. It'll go away in summer with the warm weather, he said. You're going to get a big beautiful surprise very soon, he said. He's cutting off research funding. Cutting off funding for 13 testing sites. Refusing to model wearing a mask because everyone else around him is forced to take precautions so HE doesn't contract the virus. He doesn't give a damn who contracts the virus so long as it's not HIM. And,the hypocritical f-uck is speaking in terms of post-COVID.

Does he not realize that we can SEE the stats?

The man is a cancer on the face of this country and he's metastasizing us right into our collective graves!
Correction. +47,263

In other news, Trump is still a cancer.

I’m not quite sure why this is such big news now. It was reported on while it was happening.

The novel reporting is on the investigation into motive rather than the fact of it occurring.

A rare judicial victory for religion. A court has ruled that Mayor Bill De Blasio and Gov. Cuomo no longer get to chose which causes get to keep their 1st amendment rights during Covid. If you can hold mass protests we can go to church. To bad we may not keep our right to go to work as well. But I guess earning a living isn't as important as getting CHAZ up and running.
And when the confederates saw Jackson standing fearless as a stone wall the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

What a crazy world. people fighting for their rights to get infected with a virus. Whatever dude.

I'm no fan of the protests due to the virus. That the protests are outside and despite the images on CNN, don't involve nearly the numbers of religious people wasting their time at church indoors, it's hardly a comparable threat. But we're not suppose to judge strictly on aggregate good so what can I say.

I suppose you church folks could have really had a moment to show your inspiration by setting the example, but if your idea of winning is mass infecting yourselves, have at it mofos.
