    1. Exactly trump is a master at shifting the news cycle still i hope an investigator journalist is on the case

  1. We in these nursing homes need help now! By the end of May, half or more of us may be dead.

    1. @Wendell Ellis Edwards Trolling is a sign of immaturity but you don’t seem to have a problem with that, so…?

    2. @Raging Monk Nursing home residents and staff are at much greater risk. You stay safe now.

    1. Remember when Obama said, “You wanna keep your doctor, then keep your doctor.” LIE

    1. Learn to spell. Story by Katie Pavlich at Townhall:
      Posted: May 07, 2020 5:45 PM
      New Documents Show President Obama Was in on the Flynn Takedown
      Newly released documents from the Department of Justice show President Obama informed former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates of a phone call between former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn and Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak in December 2016. He did so in the Oval Office.
      “Yates first learned of the December 2016 calls between [LTG Michael] Flynn and [Russian Ambassador to the United States, Sergey] Kislyak on January 5, 2017, while in the Oval Office. Yates, along with then FBI-Director James Comey, then-CIA Director John Brennan, and then-Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, were at the White House to brief members of the Obama Administration on the classified Intelligence Community Assessment on Russian Activities in Recent U.S Elections. President Obama was joined by his National Security Advisor, Susan Rice, and others from the National Security Council,” the document states.
      “After the briefing, Obama dismissed the group but asked Yates and Comey to stay behind. Obama started by saying he had ‘learned of the information about Flynn’ and his conversation with Kislyak about sanctions. Obama specified he did not want any additional information on the matter, but was seeking information on whether the White House should be treating Flynn any differently, given the information. At that point, Yates had no idea what the President was talking about, but figured it out based on the conversation. Yates recalled Comey mentioning the Logan Act, but can’t recall if he specified there was an ‘investigation,'” it continues.
      That phone call became part of the FBI’s justification to interview Flynn on January 24, 2017. Ahead of that meeting, notes show agents planned to get Flynn to lie in order to pursue criminal prosecution or get him fired.
      According to a memo Rice wrote to herself on January 20, 2017, her last day on the job, she and Vice President Joe Biden were in the room when Obama delivered the news to Yates.

      President Obama and his intelligence officials, like Rice, Brennan and Clapper, have denied being involved in a malicious pursuit against General Flynn. Documents show that is far from the case.
      (MY OPINION: THIS IS PROOF OS SEDITIOUS CONSPIRACY. ARREST AND PROSECUTE EVERYONE INVOLVED, INCLUDING FORMER PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA.)

    2. @Wendell Ellis Edwards
      You reek of desperation and panic.
      Good. Say goodbye to the orange CLOWN in November. 🤣

    3. @Wendell Ellis Edwards Anybody stupid enough to still be defending Trump really shouldn’t have the gaul to offer their unsolicited opinions in ALL CAPS so stfu.

    1. Sharmaine Perez “she was looking kinda dumb, with her finger & her thumb, in the shape of an L on her forehead “…

    2. @HiSomebody TrackingMuch? Are you serious?
      You are burning a Trump hat in streets.
      What are you talking about?
      You are mother of all hoaxes.

    3. Can Ceylan has a lot of opinions about politics in the USA for someone who is very obviously not from here. How much are they paying for trolling these days?

    4. @HiSomebody TrackingMuch? Not much. I wish ı have. This would be more easy. Really ı have none but ı dont like Hillary and democrats. They are destroying the world.

    5. Can Ceylan hate be be the bearer of bad news, but Hillary didn’t take office. So kiddo, it is her and the Democrats screwing up the world

  2. I wouldn’t hold my breath. Watch that nursing home, because I bet Trump will abandon them like he did Puerto Rico.
    Or, more likely, they’re going to release false data.

    1. You did hear that the supplies were lost in a warehouse right? That Trump didn’t neglect Puerto Rico? No? Well you should try to keep up.

    2. @Sharmaine Perez They weren’t even lost, they were HIDDEN. According to friends in PR there were 7 HUGE warehouses found full of supplies. Baby formula, water,medicine,food,generators,etc. Leave it to the media to keep hush about the fact the Puerto Rican gov would prefer to see citizens dead in order to vilify Trump. Where is Rachel reporting on that…CRICKETS!

    1. They are paranoid and need to oppose what happens, from a need to feel significant. There are a lot of nutjobs like these. They can’t help themselves.

  3. America will put those PPE’s on corpses while calling glass windows “invisible enemies”

  4. Trump is afraid. He should be. But I don’t want Trump to die of the virus. I want him in jail for YEARS.

    1. @Sharmaine Perez I am nowhere near as horrible as the deplorables who voted for Trump, or depravites who voted for Clinton.

    2. @Sharmaine Perez Well it would be pretty great if he did die. Drumpf wouldn’t care if you died right now. So why should people care if he dies?

  5. Seema Verma is going to start releasing data on nursing homes, maybe at the end of May. Why the rush ?

  6. “I’m not a doctor, what do I know “ is that another finest example of American sarcasm. And I thought the UK English was hard.

  7. TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS THREE MONTHS LATE AF AS PER USUAL. LATE. LATE. LATE. OVER 10,000 DEAD.

  8. Just a few hours later…. A member of Pence’s staff was diagnosed with COVID-19. Good job!
