‼️Trump's #TaxReturns reveal how he engineered a sudden financial windfall: >$21 million in "highly unusual" one-off payments from the Las Vegas hotel he owns with his casino-mogul friend, Phil Ruffin.

Smells like TAX FRAUD.🧐

Most of the $$ went thru a company called Trump Las Vegas Sales and Marketing: little previous income, no clear business purpose and ZERO employees.

The Trump-Ruffin venture wrote it off as a business expense.

This does NOT look like a legit "business expense."🧐

#TaxFraud
Why did Trump's company with ZERO employees have >$20 million in fees for the first time. And all of this money is going to a man who just happens to be running for president, might not have a lot of cash on hand, and NEEDED cash to float his campaign?🧐

#TaxFraudTrump
Unless the payments to Trump's company were for *actual* business expenses, claiming a tax deduction for them would be ILLEGAL #TaxFraud. If they were NOT legitimate and were also used to fund Trump’s campaign, they could be considered illegal campaign contributions, a #felony.💥
Ruffin has been very generous to Trump. When Trump took the Miss Universe pageant to Moscow in 2013, the men flew over together on Ruffin’s private jet. He contributed >$2.5 million to Trump’s campaign, his shady foundation and his inaugural.🧐

#TaxFraudTrump
All of this stinks of ILLEGAL transfer of money to Trump, whether for his personal use or for the campaign.

Remember what sent Al Capone to prison?

TAX FRAUD.😎

🔥WHOA. In an unprecedented move, the editors of the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine condemn the Trump administration for its FAILED response to the #coronavirus pandemic.

And they call for @realDonaldTrump to be VOTED OUT.💥

@NEJM #COVID19
nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…
“The magnitude of this failure is astonishing. The US leads the world in #COVID19 cases and in deaths. The death rate in this country is more than double that of #Canada, exceeds that of #Japan, a country with a vulnerable and elderly population, by a factor of almost 50.”💥
We have FAILED at almost every step. We had ample warning, but when the disease 1st arrived, we were incapable of testing effectively & couldn’t provide even the most basic #PPE to health care workers and the general public. And we continue to be way behind the curve in testing.

🚨BREAKING: Eli @LillyPad has re­quested emergency-use au­tho­riza­tion from FDA of its an­ti­body-based treat­ment LY-CoV­555—a drug similar to the Regeneron antibody drug given to Trump—for peo­ple with re­cently di­ag­nosed, mild-to-mod­er­ate #COVID19.
wsj.com/articles/eli-l…
Lil­ly’s an­ti­body therapy mimics human an­ti­bod­ies that can neu­tral­ize the new #coronavirus, sim­i­lar to the ex­per­i­men­tal an­ti­body-based treat­ment from Re­gen­eron (mixture of 2 antibodies) that was given to @realDonaldTrump. 🧬🦠

#COVID19
LY-CoV­555, a manufactured antibody based on an antibody found in one of the ear­li­est US sur­vivors of #COVID19, reportedly re­duced viral loads and the rate of hos­pi­tal­ization/ER visits of #COVID19 patients to 1.7%, com­pared to 6% for placebo.

🚨BREAKING: Trump didn’t disclose a POSITIVE rapid #COVID19 test result he received *on Thursday* before appearing on Fox News when he didn’t reveal it either, instead claiming he was awaiting results.

Trump tried to #coverup having tested positive.🤬

wsj.com/articles/trump…
Trump's 1st positive was a "rapid antigen" #coronavirus test (quick, not as sensitive as PCR). His 2nd, confirmatory test used PCR–amplifies genetic material from the virus (more sensitive, not as quick).

Trump KNEW of his 1st positive, but said NOTHING.
😱As the #coronavirus spread among the people closest to him, Trump asked an adviser NOT to disclose results of their own positive test. “Don’t tell anyone,” he said.

This is RECKLESS and DANGEROUS. Contact tracing #COVID19 cases is crucial to containing a #CoronavirusOutbreak.

As I warned, Trump’s condition was much more serious than revealed. His condition was deteriorating faster and earlier in the course of illness than is typical in #COVID19. Thus, the unproven antibody cocktail, #remdesivir (used for seriously ill patients), and now dexamethasone.
Patients with @COVID19 are hospitalized a median of 9days after onset of symptoms. Trump’s became symptomatic on Wednesday at the earliest, so today is Day 5. Yet Trump needed oxygen and hospitalization by Day 2.

It’s VERY CONCERNING that Trump was treated with dexamethasone. As @DrEricDing points out, dex is NOT effective in patients NOT on O2. Biggest benefit is for patients on O2/ventilator, less so for O2 only.

...(Guilfoyle) “asked her to critique her naked body, demanded that she share a room with her on business trips, required her to sleep over at her apartment, and exposed herself to her.”🤬🤮

⚠️If Hope Hicks traveled within close proximity to Trump aboard Air Force One—presumably while NOT wearing a mask—then Trump likely was exposed to the #coronavirus.

However, that does not necessarily mean it’s likely that Trump will be infected and/or get sick. 1/

#COVID19
A large study in #India of over 500,000 people showed that **only 8%** of #coronavirus-infected people accounted for 60% of all new infections.

These are “superspreaders.” 🦠
In this same study, the chances that a #coronavirus-infected person spread the virus to a household contact (CLOSE contact) was only 9%.
