Inside the push to tear-gas protesters ahead of a Trump photo op wapo.st/2U1Y7WC
President Trump began mulling a visit to the historic St. John’s Episcopal Church after spending Sunday night devouring cable news coverage of protests across the country, including in front of the White House. wapo.st/2U1Y7WC
There was just one problem: the protesters, who on Monday had again assembled peacefully across from the White House.

So authorities fired flash-bang shells, gas and rubber bullets into the crowd, clearing a path for Trump to visit the church. wapo.st/2U1Y7WC

As the coronavirus death toll reaches 100,000, the U.S. is not united in mourning. Instead, divisions are more obvious than ever. washingtonpost.com/graphics/2020/…
These 100,000 are not nameless numbers.

They are, overwhelmingly, elderly — in some states, nearly two-thirds of the dead were 80 or older. They are disproportionately poor and black and Latino. wapo.st/3eiajKq
The demise of these 100,000 people has had strangely little public impact in a country with a long history of honoring its fallen and committing to common cause in their memory. wapo.st/3eiajKq
