Still on Day One of the new Term. #SCOTUS
Here’s @rickhasen on tonight’s #SCOTUS order: electionlawblog.org/?p=116241
Republicans don’t want people to vote, so they make it difficult — and, this year, potentially deadly — to do so.
The Republicans literally let it go during the primary, so new voters only know that as the rule!

Donald Trump keeps proving, time and time again, that he doesn’t care about Americans’ lives, broadly or those close to him or those who work for him. He is a national disgrace and a national danger.
There are more than 200,000 Americans dead, Trump’s Barrett events last Saturday created the largest case of community spread in all of DC, and now he’s forcing Secret Service to be in an enclosed vehicle with him so he can drive by his fans. Unforgivable.
“I learned a lot about Covid; I learned it by really going to school,” the president says about his weekend, more than 8 months after the first coronavirus case was confirmed in the US and after more than 200,000 Americans have died.

So, it’s really starting to look like the hope was that the circle of who tested positive stayed small, Trump’s condition didn’t worsen, and they could get away with putting out Hope’s positive test to set up a scenario where they could later announce Trump’s positive test.
Am I missing something?
If that’s so, this was a ghastly, irresponsible, potentially deadly series of events orchestrated by the White House that put many at risk. And it all fell apart b/c the virus is a virus, not a political operative, and many people tested positive and Trump’s condition worsened.

So. That presser did not go well.
The timeline, the treatment, and the president’s condition over time all were called into question by what Conley said and refused to say.
The “72 hours” timeline statement is jaw-dropping. The oxygen bit was cartoonish in Conley’s avoidance. The “I’m not going to answer questions about that” refrain started to get jarring as well.

Here’s some bullshit. The Post and NYT’s headlines place no blame in a “both sides”-fest — even though their highlights make clear where the blame fell: Donald Trump. ImageImageImageImage
Two updated headlines: One still bullshit! ImageImage
Final update: Welcome to reality, NYT. Image
