As many people are pointing out, Trump's doctors are citing privacy concerns when asked about things the White House apparently doesn't want to share. They have no privacy concerns when telling us very specific things like his temperature when it suits them.
The medical team is literally telling the world about the president's specific medicines and the contents of his bloodstream, but the White House is treating the date of his last negative test as a state secret.
The date of the president's last test is among the most crucial pieces of information. It allows us to know more about when he was infected, who he might have infected, and how careful they were being in following their own protocols.
In my mind, the only reasons the White House would actively conceal the date of Trump's last negative test would be because he knowingly traveled to events contagious or because they were not testing every day as they claimed.

I understand Biden hasn't directly answered the question on "court packing," but his position actually seems pretty clear to me?
Biden is clearly indicating he's open to court reform. He's not ruling it out or taking it off the table. Biden is indicating frustration with what happened with MerricK Garland and now Coney Barrett. It seems like his ultimate position may be defined by how that unfolds.
It's not the most direct or transparent answer in the world, but it's also not the black box of utter mystery some reporters frame it as. I suspect it's kind of reaching to find something to hammer Biden on amid continued relentless questions for Trump on taxes and COVID tests.

Writing about Asian American and Pacific Islander voters, it strikes me that outreach to these groups - and our understanding of it - lags far behind what weve seen with other communities. news.yahoo.com/the-biden-camp…
Both parties have started to improve their outreach to Latino voters and recognized that the community is not a monolith. The Asian, South Asian, and Pacific community is even more linguistically, culturally, and geographically diverse.
The campaigns that focus on this in nuanced and real ways can make major gains on both sides of the aisle. This push from the Biden camp is a big step in that direction. news.yahoo.com/the-biden-camp…

I am trying to get a COVID test due to recent exposure at the White House. As of now, my appointment is next week. I will hopefully manage to do it sooner. This is my situation as someone in a major city and has great insurance.
I was on Air Force Ome with Hope and the president ten days ago. I tested negative last weekend. The idea of exposure at the White House and the president's rallies has always been scary stuff.
Meant to have these threaded in here ...

Some say the Rose Garden ceremony was the superspreader event. That's not right.

Trump's circle had so many risky events in recent weeks.

Rallies, trips, house parties, fundraisers, indoor meetings and debate prep.

This is not about one event it's a superspreader cataclysm.
All of these things happened within the past two weeks and it's just a partial selection. A superspreader cataclysm around the White House.

Ted Cruz has had clear exposure through going to the house parties and proximity with Lee. No answers from his office as far as I know news.yahoo.com/as-covid-sprea…

Essentially the president is saying, "Here's what I want from these people that I correctly identified as a white supremacist group and, by the way, I have no idea who I am talking about."
Trump is directly contradicting himself here. It's a nonsensical comment.
Trump literally said "Proud Boys" after Biden. He also referred to them on the lawn and said what he hoped to see from them while simultaneously claiming not to know what they are.

This is the second recent poll that has Biden up nine in PA. The RCP average is now 5.7. He's starting to pull away there.
Which makes Florida - once again - the most interesting and potentially decisive swing state in the union. Just about a one point gap there. realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2020/pr…
If he locks down Pennsylvania, Biden is in a decent spot to win without Florida. However, with 29 electoral votes and such tight margins, it's still worth watching. Biden would need two other tossup states if Trump can take Florida.
