The preliminary to this entire story was a president who purposely let the disease spread out of control even though he knew how dangerous it was. Probably 100,000+ have died simply because there was no national mask order. We have lost 1,700 health care workers already--many due to not having sufficient PPE. Whatever happens next, we can't bring back those who died from negligence. This level of corruption has hurt so many.

What I find interesting is a quiet effort on the part of Republicans to allow remote Judiciary Committee questioning and voting. The rules don’t allow for that. How is Mitch going to change the rules again?

Wait, illy, what’s all 3 major networks?

CNN, Fox, and Nickelodeon?

One person is a "small portion" so you are no doubt technically right. CNN is covering a major news event. If their coverage annoys you then watch a different channel, good grief.

Oh, and you and Lobster are the ones who are touting this "some people want him dead" shtick. It's lame. Just projecting the feelings of a tiny end of the looney spectrum as the feelings of a much larger volume of people.

This is literally, other than 9/11, the most impactful executive branch moment of this country since Reagan was shot. But tell me how CNN focusing on the sensationalism.

I have told you how they are focusing on sensationalism. By speculating about his rapidly declining condition when he may just have a fever and fatigue. It is ridiculous.

And it isn't just CNN. Fox is doing it too, just in a different way. Agenda driven propaganda "news" networks. It is nauseating.

I had CNN for a few hours. I see some of what you're saying but you're being even more overly dramatic than they were. But that's normal.

ESPN duh!

I meant the 24hr "news" networks. Well 15% news 85% opinion networks it seems like at times.

I guess i also get OAN network but my god that is even worse than fox.

The dumb thing is (if I remember my rules correctly), if enough GOP senators get COVID, they cannot go to the Hill to vote to change the rules to allow remote voting.

Haha well i am definitely frustrated with how far gone our "news" has drifted in the last 12+ years.

Fox definitely started it when Obama was elected, or at least that is when i really started to notice it. They reported anything and everything they could get their hands on about Obama, and much of it was total BS.

CNN didn't used to seem as bad to me as they do now. I guess payback is a mofo, but still.

It is tiring and it is dividing our country to a dangerous level (social media contributes even more to the problem). I think we are a lot closer to some sort of breaking point (not sure i would say civil war, but it is wild how divided we are right now).

So i can't complain about it?

If overly dramatic isn't allowed here then we have a lot of posts to delete on the politics boards (and hoops game threads).

Trump sure looked feeble walking to and from Marine One

Sure you can complain about it. Fire away. It will get the same response. I was just chuckling at the irony. Next you'll complain about someone arguing endlessly over a point that no one made and that no one else cares about.

U.S. Senate candidate Cal Cunningham admits to sexual texting with California strategist

North Carolina U.S. Senate candidate Cal Cunningham, a married father of two, sent text messages of a sexual nature to a woman who is not his wife, his campaign confirmed Friday night.

The text messages between Cunningham and Arlene Guzman Todd, a public relations strategist from California, were first reported Thursday night by NationalFile.com.

The report included pictures of the text messages, in which Cunningham and Guzman, who is also married according to the report, talked about kissing each other and more.

I love the confidence. I think.
