"The New York Times recently observed that in Michigan, protesters from rural areas are 'nearly all white,' with some 'hoisting Trump signs and Confederate flags,' even as the vast majority of those afflicted and dying are 'concentrated in heavily black and Democratic Detroit.'" https://t.co/vrgaxHh4WH

Michigan is the epicenter of the Patriot Movement and white supremacist paramilitary groups.

What we're watching with armed men storming the capitol isn't just a bunch of cosplayers. It's an organized terrorist movement.

This tweet was posted just over a month ago. During his press conference today Trump came to the brink of accusing China of intentionally inflicting the coronavirus upon the United States. The need for a scapegoat is a hell of a drug. https://t.co/pIsNTgVFyi

This is absolutely false. No evidence Republican governors run states better. In fact there is evidence to the contrary. States with urban areas will need help first because of the virus, but every state is going to need help because of falling tax revenues. In other words its BS https://t.co/j1EqNF6SbQ

Oh my God, Trump is completely unaware that his own ODNI said that the virus was natural. John Roberts asked him about it and Trump asked: “Who said that.“ Roberts told him, and Trump said “who is that?“ Holy crap. Even Roberts was flummoxed.
