The covid-19 pandemic has just breezed through another ignoble milestone in the U.S. The viral disease has taken more American lives this year than almost all other leading causes—it ranks behind only heart disease and cancer.


In 2017, the last year with fully available data, the third leading cause of death was accidents, thought to have killed 169,936 Americans; the fourth was chronic lower respiratory diseases, such as emphysema and asthma, with 160,201 attributed deaths. As of Tuesday, August 18, at least 171,000 Americans are reported to have died from covid-19, according to Johns Hopkins University’s tracker. Heart disease and cancer are thought to have killed a total of 647,457 and 599,108 Americans in 2017, respectively.

Pretty damning, but of course the Trumpets think it's all fake/equivalent to QAnon. Brain worms.

A sprawling report released Tuesday by a Republican-controlled Senate panel that spent three years investigating Russia’s 2016 election interference laid out an extensive web of contacts between Trump campaign advisers and Russian government officials and other Russians, including some with ties to the country’s intelligence services.

Former Chief of Staff of Trump's DHS is the newest Republican Voter Against Trump



Miles Taylor served as the Chief of Staff of Trump's Department of Homeland Security. What he saw firsthand terrified him, and now he will be voting for Joe.

BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, another never Trumper Biden voter

‘The Lincoln Project’ Hits Trump With Melania Snub Montage

On a slew of occasions, First Lady Melania Trump and President Donald Trump have seemed less than cordial towards each other in public. The issue sprung up again just recently — when disembarking from Air Force One after a recent trip to New Jersey, Donald was caught on camera reaching out for Melania’s hand, and she seemed to completely ignore him. On a previous occasion, when the two of them were visiting Israel in 2017, she seemed to actively push his hand away during a similar interaction. Both incidents made an appearance in a montage that The Lincoln Project posted on Tuesday depicting some of the incidents in which Melania has seemed to publicly rebuff the president.

The Lincoln Project is an anti-Trump group of Republicans who’ve made splashes around the web with a slew of hard-hitting video ads targeting Trump. This latest video doesn’t have Lincoln Project branding in the actual content, so it may have originally come from another source. The montage includes a soundtrack of someone erratically singing “Don’t touch me!” over and over; check it out below:

So, are we back to the Russian collusion conspiracy theory?

Whilst I am at it. I would like to remind everyone that more FBI members have been indicted than Trump family members in this regard. But, let's keep talking about this, amiright?

I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. Russian involvement in US elections is something to be talked about irrespective of whether or not Trump and his family were involved. It's a big deal. If it's a conspiracy theory, as you maintain, then why have FBI agents been arrested in this regard? Makes no sense.

So we're back to talking about the extraordinarily damning bipartisan Senate Intelligence Report that was released yesterday and reveals new crimes by the Trump campaign? You guys!

Putin picked a winner. We should be grateful.


So, what is it? Russia helped Trump get elected while they were helping discredit him?

“It’s ironic that the Russian collusion narrative was fatally flawed because of Russian disinformation. These footnotes confirm that there was a direct Russian disinformation campaign in 2016, and there were ties between Russian intelligence and a presidential campaign — the Clinton campaign, not Trump’s,” Mr. Grassley and Mr. Johnson said in a written statement.

The FBI agent was indicted for lying about Carter Paige's involvement with the CIA, which was the basis of the first FISA warrant against Trump's campaign...
