This week, a federal judge said Governor Kristi Noem "has done little, if anything," to stop the spread. thedailybeast.com/federal-judge-…
Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds followed Trump’s lead in downplaying the virus & never imposed a stay-at-home order. In November, the test-positivity rate reached 50%. Iowa now has America's 3rd highest infection rate. Nearly 1 in 800 Iowans have died of #COVID19.

I first wrote about Trump's Corona Corruption in April. #Corruption #Profiteering thedailyedge.substack.com/p/corona-corru…
In April, the PPP website for all the Mom-and-Pop small businesses kept crashing. But somehow the Trump Administration corruption kept humming along like a fine-tuned machine. #Corruption #Profiteering thedailyedge.substack.com/p/corona-corru…

Trump is a psychopathic criminal cult leader in league with foreign powers and money lenders, backed by a corrupt, compromised party and a propaganda media network. If unstopped, he will criminalize dissent and embrace authoritarianism.

Here's a thread laying it all out: (1/9)
To truly understand Trump and the danger he represents, we need to first diagnose his psychiatric condition. He's not just a narcissist. As @DutytoInform explains, he's a psychopath: thedailyedge.substack.com/p/diagnosis-ps… (2/9)
Trump is also, undoubtedly, a criminal. Setting aside Mueller and impeachment, here's a list of 10 known crimes--from sexual assault to racial discrimination to tax fraud to money laundering--that we know he committed even BEFORE he became President: thedailyedge.substack.com/p/the-crimes-o… (3/9)

I wrote this about Trump's #nursinghome negligence at the end of July: thedailyedge.substack.com/p/trumps-nursi…

The Washington Post is now reporting there have been 7,000 additional nursing home deaths since the end of September. (1/3) #NursingHomeSlaughter #TrumpHatesSeniors
WaPo: Seema Verma, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services head, vowed in late March to “keep what happened in Kirkland from happening again.” Since then, "homes that received a clean bill of health earlier this year had about 290,000 coronavirus cases and 43,000 deaths" (2/3)
Since March, more than 70,000 nursing home residents have died, plus hundreds of staff members, making up about 30% of U.S. coronavirus deaths.

“This pandemic’s death toll at #nursinghomes was not an inevitability," says Dean Lerner. (3/3) washingtonpost.com/business/2020/… #COVID19

THREAD:

Trump’s complete failure with #COVID19 turned what could have been a mild recession into a full blown economic crash—one that we may not fully recover from for many years.

How badly has @realDonaldTrump failed on the economy? (1/12)
The economy was weak heading into 2020 because of the failure of the #GOPTaxScam. Trump claimed his tax cuts for corporations and the already-rich would “skyrocket” the economy & deliver 5-6% GDP growth.

Reality: 2020 began with economists predicting growth of just 1.8%. (2/12)
Growing consumer debt was also slowing the economy’s potential heading into 2020. As Wall Street Journal reported: “consumer debt, not counting mortgages, has climbed to $4 trillion—higher than it has ever been even after adjusting for inflation.” (3/12)

“Starting in 2017, the Chinese signaled exactly how they planned to approach their trade negotiations with Trump... the very night that Ivanka sat down to dinner with President Xi, the Chinese government approved three trademarks for Ivanka’s businesses.” thedailyedge.substack.com/p/ivanka-trump…
"Despite their best efforts, Senate Republicans could find no evidence that Hunter Biden’s role on the board of a Ukrainian energy company directly affected US policy toward Ukraine."

Ivanka, on the other hand.... bostonglobe.com/2020/10/19/opi… #Corruption #LockHerUp
There’s Already a Corrupt Presidential Kid. It’s Ivanka.
